Rude, inconsiderate, selfish smokers

Nothing ticks me off more than a smoker. They are rude, inconsiderate, selfish and socialists. My tax dollars and yours will help pay for the end result of their nasty habit one day; not to mention our insurance rates skyrocketing to help offset their willingness to inject themselves with lung cancer and other diseases.

Last night, I took my wife out to eat and as we waited outside on a wooden bench on a warm February evening, here comes Joe Smoker out of the restaurant door and lights up a stinking cigarette. Even though he was over 50 feet away, the wind blew the smoke right toward us.

The smoker and I stared at each other as he sucked in the carcinogens. Then he spit on the parking lot, scratched himself, took another drag and threw his cigarette on the pavement. There really should be a fine for that.

Why do smokers think they have a right to stand at the front door of an establishment and bless us with the stinking mess they blow into the air? They belong out back smoking next to, or better yet, inside the dumpsters.
