re: #124 Fozzie Bear

I agree, if you work in a bar or a casino where people are chain smoking around you all day long every day, there is a substantial risk there.

However, if you are standing outside, and somebody lights up near you, you have the option to walk away, or suck it up. Everybody has to die from something. I was a smoker for a long time, and some people take the whole “oh god the secondhand smoke is killing me” thing waaay too far.

Zedushka is a smoker. He has completely taken over the garage for his habit, which means that my car, which is a non-smoking car, has been transformed into a smoker’s car just because it’s parked there. I would like to purchase an new (or newer used) vehicle next year, but I know that once I bring a car into this garage, it’s pickled. Also the mudroom and the utility room, which are off the garage, smell like a smoker’s lair.

I can always tell when he sneaks smokes in the bathroom, because it fucking reeks, even with the window wide open.

And he claims that he can smell a molecule of whole wheat if I try to sneak it into the bread.
