Most of the time, you can move away from the smoker just as easily as they can move away from you. Yes, its rude for a smoker to assume YOU should have to move to get away from THEM, but its like that in many things in life. That being said, I'm a smoker. I will not smoke in the immediate vicinity of someone who doesn't want to be near it; I'm very considerate. However, something that irks me to no end are people, whether I know them or not, who try to get me to quit.. by forceful means. I've had someone take my cigarettes, and my lighter, and refuse to give them back, with the excuse that I was killing myself, and them. Haggling smokers is just not cool; trying to convince them its bad for them, and they should stop, sits on the side of 'helping someone out', but forcefully taking their junk and trying to PHYSICALLY stop someone else's PERSONAL decision is no gewd. /sonic
