to think that now you can't smoke in public places, you shouldn't really be making your roll-ups in them either?

Recently, I've seen a few people doing this, and it surprised me (and when did so many people switch to roll-ups?).

I don't want to see people fiddling about with tobacco pouches and cigarette papers in coffee shops and restaurants. Obviously, if they could smoke them there then it makes sense, but now it seems to me like going into a cafe and starting to make your own sandwich (with no intention of eating it in there obviously).

AIBU? A friend says I am, because if they did it outside "their tobacco might blow away", which while possibly true, hardly seems a good justification to me.

Not a fan of the old fellatio either to be frank.

(I bet Frank is)

(Who is Frank?)

Someone should ring Amsterdam.

How on earth is it impolite? I genuinely don't understand.

YABU and really quite stupid - what harm does it do??

So, no cocks then?

I'm laughing so loud I made the dog jump

The actual rolling of the cigarette doesn't bother me, so much as when they leave tobacco on a table/surface that will be used for something such as food or drink...

I find it easier to consume my drinks out of a cup, rather than poured straight onto the table, and have mastered the art of using a plate for my food..

I would be more concerned about dirty fingers being all over the table than a bit of tobacco though if I were to eat straight off the surface..

Oh OP, I see you have accepted you were BU with good grace.

So I will just say thank you for providing the basis for such a funny thread.

Squeaky I'm just one of those people that always wipes off a table of crumbs/food/spillages/tobacco before I place my mug/plate on it, I find it incredibly disgusting that someone can leave a drug on a surface that someone will be using to place items for consumption on.

No need for the sarcasm, completely unnecessary and out of place.

I smoked roll ups 10 years ago when I met dh. I wasn't skint back then I just prefered them and thought they made me look cool and interesting until dh pointed out I just looked skint. I do still prefer a rolly though.

Drum gold with a slim filter. Never roaches a roll up I thought that was just for joints!

I had a weird urge to have a rollie yesterday, a decade after giving them up - have now got steps at the back door just perfect for a cup of tea and a smoke.... BUT I won't - though in the past I might have gone into the cafe and order something to give me a sheltered place to make up one up...
.

Is that meant to be ironic? You are complaining that people are rolling up a drug (by which you mean tobacco) in a coffee shop, where people frequently consume coffee, which is a drug.

Seahouses, perhaps that's because they weren't prepared to share.

Do you think we will need to prove we are british citizens before we can order a latte?!

Life. Get.

Yabu and you know it now. Had a feeling this thread was going to go this way even with alot of the rabid non-smokers on here.
I smoke roll ups and I have a pretty silver tin which I bring out wherever I want to be it cafe,pub or club sometimes in a shopping mall I've never considered your point op and to be honest I'm not going to consider it again

One of the reasons I married DH was for his impressive rollie making skills.

OP you are a loon ( in a good way).

Of course it makes sense for people to make their roll ups inside, in the warm, away from the wind that will blow their tobacco away, where they're already sitting comfortably and actually have a good seat for making the roll up on. And where they're still in company and can continue on with their chat in the meantime. I don't understand how you can fail to see all this. YABU and so so judgy!

Oh yes agree with squeakytoy, I'm also one who finds drinking from a glass and eating off a plate far easier than straight from the table If you're concerned about the hygiene of the table have you been monitoring how many people do/don't wash their hands after coming out from the toilet and putting their hands all over them?

Well may I be the first to say I think the OP is entirely reasonable?! Rolling cigarettes in a restaurant is common, nasty and very bad manners. But then I'm the person who'd happily ban smoking anywhere except in the privacy of someone's own home. Flame away folks!

If you don't like the look of it, look somewhere else.

YABU and a bit weird.

I hate it when people start putting their coats on before they've left my house. So rude. Coats are for outside, not inside, so why don't they wait until I've closed the door behind them to start putting on coats?

YABU. That's it really. They could say to you 'do they have to do it in public places' all manner of things child-related that they'd rather not see while eating and drinking.

at being nasty and common.
I smoke roll ups because I can't afford fags.
And yes, a roach is for joints, I use the filters.
And yes I make them in cafes, on the bus, everywhere really.
