[Unnamed] the Smoker

[abstract_musing]

Today I was delighted to be reminded of why my mother is such an anti-smoking activist. The girls and I decided to eat outside for dinner today, given the wonderful weather. [Friend 1] invited [Unnamed] to join us, who decided to light up a cigarette next to me. There was a breeze, and thus his smoke was blowing in my face. Of course I made a

So.... inspiring?

It's amazing how a 30 second conversation with you about a simple live journal post can make an individual realize as much about themselves as I did.... Wow... I suppose this is why friends like you, individuals who actually make you think and look at yourself once in a while, are in high demand.

Wow, Sara. Good for you! I mean, though it seems a trifle to some it was important to you. How rude of him to want to smoke around you, at least up-wind of you.
However, smokers are a different breed. Like the Black Russian Terrier (dark and smokey in color) and a Collie (lassie). Both same species but entirely different colors, temperments, and learning behaviors.
Hmmm, never thought I would compare humans with dogs but it makes sense to me.
So, be that Collie, save Timmy from the Well while the Terrier sits there moodily.

If that made any sense at all, good for you! If not...um... <3

are you saying smokers couldn't save a child from a well?

In [unnamed]'s case...going off that interesting analogy, I think first the child in the well would have to wait as the moody terrier sits silently for long periods of time (surrounded by a bullshit concept of companionship with the child in the well) nearby waiting for pity, hindering any chance for her to be happy and uninhibited while patiently waiting to be set free from the well that the terrier is ultimatly responsible for. This would happen at any given time during the 24 hour period in a day, then she would wait while the terrier took a shit on her without asking, then watch him walk away to join his other little terrier pals, while she sat, festered, and plotted ways to anonymously slander him in a LJ post.

LOL
Dude, I love how you totally understand me. That analogy was just about the most random thing I ever made up and I really doubted anyone understanding what I was trying to say.
Props for you!
WOOT

Some people are so disrespectful. I was part of a Truth demonstration on campus and this guy came over, lit up a cigarette, and would not move or put it out, even when a man with a hole in his throat asked him to. He kept talking about his "right" as a smoker. TRUTH demonstration. HOLE in THROAT! Come on people, if you want to kill yourselves be my guest, but respect those of us who chose not to.

I can't believe someone would actually sink so low...especially in that situation. That's just terrible.

Welcome to College, where teens grow into their 20's and where some choose to be annoying pricks. What is it about taking one political science class that does that to someone? Good boy, you know your rights as a Citizen. Now bugger off.
