were the biggest slob smokers. I quit, but I felt the same when I still smoked. I was pissed at assholes that threw their butts everywhere because they were getting all of us in trouble. I told a few that too. Now look where some places are banning smoking outside and the expense of cleaning up the mess is one of their best arguments. Dumbshits!

So who's most responsible for any mandatory mask rules or laws now? The morans that weren't following the recommendations all along. A lot of that is on Trump. His followers would have listened to him on that and we wouldn't be hearing the freedumb bullshit.

It doesn't help that Hollywood still glamorizes smoking. Apparently a fuck of a lot of people in the industry still smoke.

And it is the exact same people every time who erupt in a rage when asked to act responsibly towards others.

can't remember his name. I think he dated, or was married to, a fellow DUer... she dumped his ass. Solid decision.
