As far as I've seen only people who live with smokers for decades.

I got bored of them and just stopped.

Smoking indoors = not wearing a mask when you have the chinaman virus.

I didn't realize COVID went back that far. Big Tobacco has a lot of explaining to do.

I don't think most people who complain are that grossed out by it. It's usually non smoking gimps overreacting to smoking and going on like it is worse than it really is.

It's similar to weed smoke, it is tolerable in a room or directly off the joint/cig, but people who just smoked smell bad, especially if they've also been drinking alcohol or have been outside in the rain.

A feature. Not a bug. Don't talk to me. Just wrinkle your nose and turn right the **** around.

When I was in Japan they had smoking areas. Get me drunk enough, and I'll help finish your cig if you're trying to cut down, because I care about your lungs enough to destroy mine. <3

Hotboxes suck too tbh

I know it's expensive to live in Tokyo and they don't want me there anyway but I'll find a nice alley to set up shop in and beg for enough to buy smokes and just sit in bars where you can't even smell my unwashed body for all the cig smoke.

My friend pays about 600 dollars a month for his apartment. Granted it was small, and I spent a few drunken nights, and hungover mornings there, but living there seems doable if you put in some effort. Dude pretty much charmed his way into a teaching job.

What I meant by my post is that they have different areas in the bars you can smoke, but they have dedicated smoking rooms in hotels and fancy shmancey places too.

I voted 'Nay'.

I'm allergic to tobacco and in my country i can't go to any bar/pub without taking antihistamine before, because the smoke is everywhere and it really bothers me.

Unfortunately, i don't think the government is going to forbid smoking in public places anytime soon...
