Smoke ‘em if you got ‘em. Just not in NYC.

December 23, 2009 193 Comments

In New York City, it is illegal to smoke in restaurants, bars, and work places. AND my apartment. As a non-smoker, I love being able to go into a restaurant now and not reek of cigarettes. Especially as I grew up reeking of cigarettes. Both of my parents smoked it up in my house, and when I went to high school pretty much everyone thought I was a smoker. I wasn’t, then, but I was one in college. And I loved it. Loved loved loved it. Went from zero to two packs a day in an instant. Nothing like that first smoke of the day, that smoke after a good meal, that smoke with your coffee, or that smoke with a good glass of wine. Or a smoke when you’re on the phone with a girlfriend, or a smoke when…well, you get the point. But the problem with that is, you start always thinking about your next smoke. Pretty soon it turns into smoke-management thoughts. When was my last one? Do I have enough for the day? How long is this bus trip – will I be able to take a smoke break? Better get in a smoke before the movie. Can they smell smoke on me? I better grab a pack before the deli closes. And, boom, it runs your life. You stink, you’re short on breath, you start feeling weird sensations all over your body from it. Sometimes they make you nauseated. And you KNOW they are definitely a cause for cancer. So…yeah, I quit again. I will always miss smoking, but I totally don’t miss smoking. Classic love-hate relationship. So, back to the point. I’m glad I can go into non-smoking places now, but I absolutely hate the fact that now all smokers just smoke on the sidewalks everywhere in New York. Bars have turned inside out, and if you have to walk past one, well, guess what? You might as well be IN the bar. So, anti-smoking legislation in New York City, this Vlog’s for you. Enjoy!

    [..YouTube..] @QCBEC Don’t change the subject to THAT, we’ve already had that debate- Why do you want to go BACK to it. “The THING IS” is that you’ve denied complaining..Try to STICK to answering that. I know you won’t because you’re a 17 year-old little punk. Now just WATCH as you skirt around the fact that you’ve denied complaining. Again, I could CARE THE FUCK LESS about your spelling, your cig addiction and your pot smoking pleasure. Don’t go there- Admit you complained, admit it !- Goof !

    [..YouTube..] @gblueslover2 The thing isWho the fuck are you to tell me what not to do?Are you over me? and even if socialy talking you would be, exemple you are a politician you remain a human like me and the fact you’re leader of something doesnt give you the right to decide what every idividual should do or notWe are born on this earth free but then the gouvernement take over and make us go into there shit like it was normal.and if you count blaming my typing on pot, english isnt my first language.
