I smoke in the garden in the evenings filthy bastard that I am and now DD smokes too she keeps following me out there to talk at me Angry. She has just given me a lengthy run down on some make up endorsed by the bloody Kardashians wondering if she should buy some and then had a rant about how crap it probably was Angry.

My evening smoke-s- are my ME time (4 DC). Time to think things over and have pretend conversations in my head with people who have pissed me off, or fantasise about actually having a life. I try to 'hmmm' and 'OK' at appropriate times to pretend I'm listening to her which she has now caught onto but she still won't bugger off.

She's 19 btw.

AIBU to tell her to go out for a fag at different times to me (she won't because she's scared of the bats flying around) or ban her from smoking at all in the garden?

We've all got too die of something.

YANBU smoking is akin too killing puppies on mn.

It's very much down to genetics ultimately. Statistics only show general trends.

ayeokthen · 23/09/2016 23:34

ooh I think I'll stop smoking right now Where your judgyness and moral superiority have changed my view on life completely! FYI the only people in my family to die from/suffer from cancer, heart disease and other major health problems were all non smokers, so you can stick that in your pipe and glare disapprovingly at it!

On the plus side - lots of taxes paid in and less to pay out in pensions. So every cloud etc...

Smoking rates have more than halved since 1974 and continue to decrease.

Obesity is the new smoking when it comes to how much it's costing the NHS and how much it's likely to cost in the future.

The difference is, obesity doesn't come with a huge amount of tax like tobacco does.

I think we'll all be fucked when the last smoker stubs their cigarettes out for good.

ayeokthen · 23/09/2016 23:50

user1474638369 any or all of them Grin I'm just waiting for the statistics on bum sex being hazardous to your health Grin personally I'd rather gouge out my own eyes, but each to their own and all that.

user1474638369 · 23/09/2016 23:53

Ayeokthen - I'm sure they're all waiting for you. Thanks for the fags :)

UnsuccessfullyAdulting · 23/09/2016 23:53

I'm still giggling about smoking being as bad as heroin or playing in the traffic. Of course smokers know that smoking is bad for them. But it's really not as bad as shooting up some dodgy smack through a collapsed vein in the back of your knee, or dancing in the middle of the M25 on a Monday morning. Sheesh.

user1474638369 · 24/09/2016 00:00

No it's not.

"My nan and I used to share a fag by the kitchen window"

That's brought back teenage memories of hopping on the train to go stay the night with my nan (after falling out with my parents - it happened frequently) and us both smoking 🚬 her menthol Consulates, usually while watching a Jimmy Cagney film on the telly. Happy Days.

(Relax, Health Police. I haven't smoked for at least 22 years.)
