Dear Smokers: I Hate You
Well, maybe 'hate' is too strong a word. I dont hate you, I'm just pissed. Dont get me wrong here, I think hatred of many different people, places, and things are entirely justified. But smokers… well, it's more of a strong disdain. A healthy dislike for their particular fetish, their obsession. Ive known some smokers that were actually pretty cool when they werent posing with their cigarette.
I was starting to think that it was a rarity, but the tobacco industry is indeed still in business. People still do this? Grown men and women, with everything we know about how smoking ravages the human body - people still willingly do this to themselves? It really is quite a strange habit when you think about it. I personally can count on one claw (and that's only 4 digits) how many people I know that smoke. One of them, unfortunately, is our new next-door neighbor.
I found this out when i came home to a house reeking of tobacco smoke today, because I had left my living room window open while we were out. Nice day, why not? It stank my entire house up. So basically, this person enjoys a smoke on their front porch (which it looks like they do it a lot) and the entire right side of my house has to stay air tight, or we get to enjoy it as well. I have the audacity to leave my windows open on a nice day, and my own home reeks. Welcome to the neighborhood, slob.
Ah yes, the sweet smell of smokers. The omnipresent smell of burnt trash. Their cars, their homes, their clothes, their breath. How can people tolerate themselves, and pretty much everything they own being literally smoke-damaged? You expect that shit from high school kids trying to be cool, but grown adults? Is it still considered cool?
I think the only people more fucking annoying than smokers are the idiots that drive around with music so loud in their vehicles, it actually shakes your innards from a block away. It goes without saying that those inconsiderate dolts are very lucky that I have no power whatsoever, because they'd be publicly caned if i had my way.
But back to the walking chimneys.
I've dated a couple smokers before, and they've always been the same: annoying.
Women who smoke are unattractive, even if they are good looking. It's an instant turn-off. Going somewhere in a hurry? Wait a minute, gotta stop at the store and get some smokes. Stuck somewhere, out of cigarettes? Let's beg complete strangers for an "extra" cigarette, that's so appealing. Youre dealing with someone who is reasonably intelligent, attractive, and polite one minute, and the next an immature child who needs their treat "or else".
Everywhere the smoker goes, at all times they must have the contingency plan for a smoke. Come back from the bathroom and she's gone, huddled outside and around the corner like a junkie sucking down her fix. Cant sit thru the movie, sorry have to go smoke. Be back in a few. Forget it, dont come back. You smell like trash.
Go get help, before you die from your disgusting fetish.
