Smoking
Thread Solved |
Well, i don't want to end this thread, if i wanted to end it, i wouldn't read it, as you rightly pointed out Naure, but the source of my general hatred for a particular action that some smokers do, just burns me up with hatred.

Especially when some workers have to stand outside of their shop when they go for a 'cigarette break' outside the door or main entrance. It really puts me off going into shops.

I'm sick of the analogies. On both arguments. Because analogies aren't always accurate and are rarely 100% equal to the argument being made.
Disclaimer: Nothing I say can be considered credible information (I wonder what that means about this disclaimer then).

For me that wasn't really an analogy.

Well if let's say a group of people (lets say 5) were standing in front of a shop door smoking, and you really wanted to go into this shop, but you would have to pass through a wall of toxic smoke. Would you go through? In the case of asthmatics, they would have to pass by that shop because they can't go into it through the cloud of toxic smoke created by some inconsiderate people.
BUT, obviously some smokers are considerate and move out of the way.
ALSO could not cigarette providers cut out all of the toxins from the cigarettes, making them out of just nicotine (very small amounts) and paper?
Thus no toxic cloud would be produced.
