They don't want to control anyone, but they don't want to inhale what we release from our blackened lungs.

I hate smoking in public places, it smells like shit. The worst part is that smokers can't smell it. (I don't smoke) I really hate cheap cigs too because they smell even worse.

What is smoking?

[Daycare Nation]

I'm drinking St. Peter's Cream Stout

[Cantankerous]

that's relevant.

[Daycare Nation]

exactly

Smoking in an enclosed public space with a one-night-only attraction like a touring rock show with no "alternative venue" to patronize instead is rude as fuck.
Social engineering issues aside, I don't give two shits about "smokers' rights" in instances such as these. I lived in your fucking world long enough. If I can endure an eye-stinging, throat-burning, shower-inducing environment for the sake of my music fandom for years and years on fucking end, smokers can go ahead and go without for two hours and suffer for theirs.

[Пятхъдесят Шест]

Daycare. I'm concerned. Are you an alcoholic?

Pretty much, case closed.

Though, I'm still going to bitch about not being able to smoke in a bar.

Probably not.

Good observation, though. I'm just extra-depressed and nihilistic this month.

i'm always nihilistic. what's your goddamn point?

[Daycare Nation]

my point is that I'm "extra"

[Cantankerous]

i can't believe i'm even saying this, but there are other things to do besides drink, because honestly, it's not going to fix anything.

Indeed, as you should. I know I bitched about smoking quite often over the past two decades I spent in poorly-ventilated venues.
I understand there are issues of "liberty" and "social engineering" around this, but I am speaking from pure selfishness and the strain of decades of enduring an environment where I often had to leave early due to stinging eyes and throat (not to mention the smell) when I rant about this stuff.

ALL laws are social engineering, as is all civic planning, building of roads over rail systems (or vice versa), any infrastructure decisions. Hell, even where and how stadiums are built is social engineering. This is a drop in the bucket compared to so much else....

Neither is anything else you do. So drink up!

[Daycare Nation]

haha...yeah I know...

what DOES fix anything though? I find myself increasingly in a world of isolation. No one cares because they have their own little world that doesn't involve me.

[Cantankerous]

go out and play with your friends.
