You do not know the difference between an image and an image macro.

[QUOTE=Azur;23292499]Yeah you see the thing is I was saying smoking itself is dangerous, not second hand smoking. Although that CAN be as bad, it's generally not. My argument about smoking (until people decided to derail it with exaggerations etc) was that it is unsanitary and antisocial.[/QUOTE]
Wtf smoking is pretty damn social man

I prefer social drinking.
He's having a drink, so shall I.
When i went to New York i was impressed with how little people smoked, in and entire week i saw 4 or 5 smokers, tops. Cigarettes are awfully expensive too.

And secondly, who gives a fuck what you think about other people smoking?

No it can't.
[quote]My argument about smoking (until people decided to derail it with exaggerations etc) was that it is unsanitary and antisocial.[/QUOTE]
Unsanitary, maybe to your teeth if you're a really heavy smoker, but is it law to bathe or brush our teeth? I do both, but I'd be upset if suddenly the sanitation police showed up at my door and told me to bathe.
And antisocial? Social interaction is not something that's supposed to be government regulated. The only antisocial effects that I see depicted amongst smokers is that fact that the heavy smokers are constantly going out for cigarette breaks, which generally divides the group I'm hanging out with in two every ten minutes. But that can also follow in the exact opposite direction, as I've recently picked up smoking as a social-only habit. When someone offers me a cigarette, I take it, because I enjoy the feeling and even moreso the social experience of smoking with my friends. It's nice to take a little walk outside and have something to do while you're at it.
You're trying to justify the regulation of something that is based on invalid health threats with your own personal qualms and distastes with smoking. All the reasons why YOU wouldn't do it are irrelevant.

Because huddling under a parasol outside a bar whilst lighting a cigarette just so you can get your nicotine fix makes you the life of the party.

What are the reasons against the ban then?
In your opinion, that is.

As referenced in my previous post, people go out together for smoke breaks all the time. Whenever one of my friends goes out for a cigarette, generally every other cigarette smoker follows them, and probably not just because they fiend for the nicotine, but because they'd rather smoke with other people than alone.

People should be able to do whatever they want to their bodies? Especially if it isn't harming others, which the whole point of this debate is that it's not, unless you're careless and allergic.

You are an alcoholic!
Drinking alone is one of the first signs that you may have a problem.

A problem with your wife, girlfriend, etc.
Or it could just mean you want a damn drink. Honestly.
I've drank alone before, and it was just to loosen up. I don't have a problem.

I should start masturbating on the bus.
It doesn't harm others, and I'm doing something to my body that people shouldn't stop me for.

Drinking on your own regularly.
Sorry, I should have clarified that.

Right, well, I dunno about Nova Scotia but the drinking age is 21 here. You payin' for the passport? :v:

That is completely different from smoking, that's illegal. Smoking is not.

I think you can still get into Canada without a passport. Or did they change that? I have never had a reason to cross the border into the states so I don't know what they require there.
[QUOTE=Azur;23292775]Drinking on your own regularly.

Again, not a sign of a problem.
It's actually beneficial for your health to have a little bit of alcohol daily.
The precursor to a problem is HEAVY drinking regularly, regardless of whether you're alone or not, and the inability to stop.

I think they did.
You need a passport to get from Canada into the United States.
