A name like Rebel Machine and you don't smoke? For shame.

So I know this is super weird...but I actually enjoy the smell of cigarette smoke...where I grew up, smoking is still allowed in places, so I guess it is a nostalgia thing? I personally don't care, either way. I don't smoke, so it doesn't impact me.

I mean, the stale "after smell" that lingers isn't the nicest - hence why I hate people smoking in my car. But in a public place, where people are regularly smoking, that doesn't really get the chance to happen, so I still don't get it either. lol

You can take my smoking sections in restaurants but only the most selfish of yuppies would take my bars too.

I’d be all for the if you don’t like it go somewhere else thing as long as the owner doesn’t have any employees. Workers shouldn’t be exposed to deadly carcinogens.

But bars. BARS!!! Taking out the cigarette smoke just makes them smell like stale beer anyway.

Secondhand smoke sucks even when it's coming off of your own cigarette and the wind carries it. Banning outdoor smoking is whack, take your smoke break outside.
