I’ve been told they fly to the North Pole to help the elves make the toys.
Back again every morning ..they rest all day as they look at you with that vacant stare.

I’ve seen people ride motorcycles who can barely walk usually because they are too heavy (think of motorized scooters}. Some learn to ride at age 4 on a child sized motorcycle. My gf competed in dirt bike racing when she was 5 years old, won when she was 10. She is now CEO of a large bank corporation and still a motoress.

Your choice

I am educated, medically trained and I smoke about 4 or 5 cigars a month.
I enjoy it, and if I'm not driving, I enjoy a Scotch with it.
I will soon be 90, I can walk a treadmill at 3 mph at a 10 degree incline.
And it's due to cigars and Scotch.

I don't like the smell of alcohol can we ban that from the square also? 😂

:eclipsee_gold_cup:

Surely you learned from Southpark that they are stealing underpants. :posting:

Have a habit they can't conquer? Based on that standard, I think I'll start slamming heroine and relieving myself in the town square. That should go ever well - especially when the kids are in town visiting their grandparents. Soon, we'll be able to call ourselves San Francisco.

Thank God we have the freedom to have these arguments. :bigbow:

Love the smell of a nice cigar outdoors.

Attention whores? Who's paying them? Don't you mean attention sluts? :1rotfl:

Restaurants tried having "smoking" and "non-smoking" sections inside but the ventilation systems weren't designed for it, so it didn't work. Outdoor dining areas increased in popularity so the smoking customers would have a place to go plus create a smoke free restaurant.

We are not smokers and enjoy dining outside, too. We try to sit as far away from the bar as possible because it seems that smokers congregate close to the bar. If that isn't available, we are flexible and just sit inside.

They always say go outside if you want to smoke. Now they’re outside & then the non smokers don’t like that. I don’t smoke & never did, it makes your breath stink, your clothes stink & the smokers are trying to die sooner. Plus kissing someone that smokes is like kissing an ash tray, so as long as the smokers are outside personally they can kill themselves that much sooner, the smokers are doing what we want them to do, at least they’re outside & & it’s their right. So if you don’t like it, move to another spot.

How do you know the driver in front of him was not driving slowly, enjoying the trip while enjoying a smoke?

You think cigar smoke is bad, just wait until they legalize pot. Smoke doesn't bother me unless someone purposely blows it into my face. Then we have a problem. I am surprised that some seniors on here are still complaining at this old age. Then again, I do not frequent the squares so I guess the whole issue is moot to me. I guess there is always something that triggers complaints from each of us. Just keep your dog off my lawn...:D

I don’t smoke but the last I checked we still live in america

It won't be the same crowd that smokes pot going to the squares. I'm not worried about that at all.

If pot is legalized in Florida you still won't be allowed to use at the squares.

You would be fine in California
 

Now the streets of California are full of unhoused people, dogs and tents. Thankfully no one complains about the smoke.

Oh boy…. Imagine the shock OP would have if they found out that fish crap in the ocean and people actually swim in it…

Kentucky doesn’t allow indoor smoking.

The latest information I can find says Kentucky does not have a statewide ban on indoor smoking.

There are several municipalities that have local ordinances. According to this site, 38.1% of Kentuckians are protected by laws covering indoor workplaces and public places.

How many times do I have to remind you-------STOP CONFUSING PEOPLE WITH THE FACTS!!!

martina says
 

as far as rights go, martina navratilova gay tennis player ( the best? even} says all trans should have their own competition,, go for it, have a trans whatever champion,, makes too much sense. but no,, they just wanna beat the real women ...because its so dam easy :shocked:

Is Martina playing in the squares this evening? Will competition you mention include team smoking? If not, then what does this have to do with tolerating smokers around the squares? (or maybe you posted this in the wrong thread)

Unhoused???

That the same as "vagrants"?

My father was born in Kentucky. Lots of jokes about KY! While traveling in KY two years ago we stopped at a restaurant for breakfast. As we got up to pay the bill, to my amazement a guy lit up a cigarette. I ask the server taking my credit card if that was legal. “Yes sir in the county she said”. We went on our merry way.

🎯🎯🎯

I like what one of my graduate school professors use to say: “I don’t grade your papers on your grammar but rather on the content of your paper.”

A smoker is perfectly within their rights to smoke in permitted areas, but that doesn't make it legal to throw butts wherever they feel like it. Besides being disgusting it is littering.

You can love dogs or you can be wrong.




























I still don't think they should be at the squares or in the stores.

Oh! Thanks alot! Just when I got over my fear of SHARKS!
Where are my mask,snorkel and fins? I'll be in the bathtub for a while, hon!

🙈🙉🙊

Was raining sooooo hard at Brownwood last night, I couldn't get my cigar lit.

:cryin2:

Rain good! Smell clean, fresh air. 😃

Seriously
 

With all the challenges in the world today is this really one of them ? Smokers have been for the most part isolated from those who don’t want to have that around them. However I believe most of us in the villages love the freedom America provides us. So completely eliminating something those already have significant restrictions to comply with just doesn’t seem like the American thing to do.

You know what's REALLY perverted/insane/unnatural - is being SO upset by only .5% (one half of one percent) of people in the USA, that you'd have to find a topic about smoking to complain about it.

Different point of view. Doing what you want is great. You are free to do that until what ever it is negativly impacts someone else's right to do what they want. You can walk anywhere as long as you don’t walk over others. You can drink as long as others don't have to also drink. And you can use tobacco/nicotine as long as no one else has to us it. Smoking in public puts others in the position of being forced to breath the smoke that needn't be present. Even if it's only one breath, one drink or being trodden on one time. Only the addicted "need" their fix. Do it in private or wear a patch or eat a nicotine gummie. Smoking is unnecessary and does no one any good.
Next?

When the smoke is drifting halfway across the square and entering my nostrils, the smoker IS imposing their lifestyle on other people. That is an imposition. I'm minding my own business halfway across the square - and YOUR smoke is imposing on my breathing. I shouldn't have to move. You should have to keep your smoke to yourself. Y'know - so it doesn't impose on other people.

WOW! I'm convinced! We should start toddlers in preschool on scotch and cigars so they will grow up strong and healthy and live long lives, just like you. 😏🙄

I haven't smoked for near 40 years now, but occasionally, when someone lights up nearby, usually with a match, not a lighter, I get that urge to have a 'ciggy' one more time.
The rest of the time, they just stink!:)

Ready for tonight.
