Smoking Ban

[Mailman]

Actually Ireland has had a smoking ban since March 2004 and the overall result has been positive. The world didnt end, pubs didnt go out of business and the government wasn't overthrown in a popular uprising. Which was nice.

Its the stench I cant stand! All that stale smoke clinging to your "clothes"...and thats only after 5 minutes of being in a pub!

Neh mind...next year you goons will soon be able to enjoy smoke free pubs...heck...you could even tell your missus (or mista) that you werent at the pub and she would never know!

Didn't want to set it too high and was worried for a second that it'd gone over your head completely.

Thanks for the feedback.

Look here, Threaded:

I didn't start posting on this forum just to playing fecking mind games with sad-sack, witless losers like you - so please just give it a rest.

Your posts show no evidence of any real level of intelligence, knowledge (outside of your specialist field). Nor any humour, or humanity, or humility (the three Hs - far more important than the three Rs).

You are just another blowhard. Full of opinions and 'instant knowledge'.

Clearly, I don't want to talk to you, and you don't want to talk to me - so can't we just leave it at that?

There are a few characters here who I think have something to say, are witty (even if I dissagree with their POV or politics) - and I'd rather talk to them.

. I intend to use the pubs far more often when I can go in there and not come out smelling like an ashtray!

Just as I suspected, a Christmas time drunk on 2 shandies 'drinker'!
These are the guys who want the Ban i.e. those who never go to pubs and don't really like drinking. Nanny state tree hugging barstewards

Still a numpty but sadly one that has left his corner. NC, as a former squaddie I could drink tragic little tools like you under the table without even needing to go for a wazz. Stick to debating things you have some understanding of, there's a good fellow. If any topics relating to topiary or crocheting crop up I'll be sure to send you a private message flagging them up. Then you can show us what you're made of.

So you were the sad old fecker sitting in the corner smelling of stale piss. Next time, just go to the bog like everyone else.

Come on Shaun, you were in the British Army, the finest unit of fighting men in the world. The best trained, the toughest, the hardest, the meanest. The most disciplined (usually). Able to fight in all environments, Arctic, desert, jungle. Trained to survive off the land, kill with your bare hands, blend in to your surroundings, to use stealth and cunning and ingenuity to defeat any enemy. Trained to evade capture, and if captured, to resist torture.

And you're put off by a bit of tobacco smoke?

That'll be the "Royal Marines Commando" you're thinking of there.

As for smoking in pubs, I've never smoked and don't give a tulip if other people do. In fact, you go into a pub(a real one anyway) knowing that it's going to be a smokey environment - if you don't like it, don't go in.

The difference is, you make the choice, not the government.

I feel better now!
