Another attack on smokers has been raised.
Well, once more here I stand to stub my beautiful tube of pleasure out in your proverbial dinner.
Geez, smokers are treated like child-molesters now aren't we?
America, certain states you are forbidden to smoke anywhere outside or in public buildings.
YET, you can buy guns and beer in the same store. Now there's a healthy mix of hobbies eh?
I smoke. I enjoy it. It gives me a lot of pleasure. The 1st one in the morning, after a nice meal, sitting in the garden in the summer evenings with friends.
One question to all the health-nazis out there:
Why don't you ever have the balls to complain to our faces?
It's always when that person has left the room or you're a safe distance away that you start to wave your hand and go on and on and on in the whiny little voice "It's the secondary smoke. I don't want to die for their habit"
Fair enough.
Stop driving your car, stop drinking, stop using your mobile phones and stop burning fossil fuels, because you know what? Those things can all kill me and I have no say in that.
But nooooooo, let's all point our fingers at the nasty smoker across the room.
In an age where traffic pollution is causing record numbers of asthma cases, where over-demand is wiping our seas of all the fish, where intensive farming methods means outbreaks of diseases that we haven't seen in decades, we should all just moan about me having a fag.
Except I don't care.
And you know why? Because me having this one fag (I'm smoking right now..mmmm..taste that cool Laramie goodness) is not going to kill you.
It's not. No more than you eating that beef or crossing that road.
So grow up, mind your own business and stop telling me what I should or shouldn't do ok?
Ok
Let's all act like adults, worry about our own lives and try to make as much money as we can before we die from that inconsiderate person lighting up 30ft away.
The sun will burn through our ozone layer before you catch cancer from my smoking.
And they'll have a cure for it by then anyway, so relax and enjoy your hair.
I'm not doing any damage to you whatsoever, you're far more likely to catch a disease from the carcinagens in the air from traffic and CFCs and all that other stuff.
So, stop forcing your morals and interests onto my life, I didn't ask for it, I don't want it and I sure as hell don't appreciate it.
I'll smoke, I'll get the tumours and I'll die.
That's fine with me, so leave me be to enjoy my final, hacking and weezing days in peace and quiet.

Good!
I could read music, I had lessons a couple of years after my brother started - apparently I was catching him up, but what's the point in being taught stupid ancient songs and classical nonsense (some classical music is good, no disrespect there), I just didn't like it. He's grade 8 +, if he had the right personality - i.e. an outgoing, performing, wanting to be famous, type of person then he could be as successful as the likes of Jools Holland. I've been astounded by how good my brother is, one day I'll record what he plays, without him knowing, send it off to Sony, see what happens...
Anyway, make them learn, I regret not learning to play the guitar earlier, but I made a decision, and got the guitar the next day, it's hard changing chords still, but I'm getting there, and glad I started now, while I'm still 'young' ish.

I've never had a lesson in my life.
Can't read music, don't want to.
Had piano lessons, guitar lessons and couldn't get to grips with all the tech stuff.
Used to play the trumpet in school, gave it up though because of the amount of stick I got from the other kids.
Wished I hadn't.

Learning the guitar?
Good on ya!
I'm not taking the pee, I'm seriously happy for you.
Stick at it Dan, it may seem hard and unrewarding, but you'll love it when you can do it.
I tried the guitar and it just wasn't me.
Hit the drums and that is me. Took me an age to get anywhere near proficient at it, but ain't nothing like that feeling when you've played your heart out.
Well done mate.

You might, but no one else does. I know this may seem selfish, but I haven't won a game for ages, after posting around 30 1000word + topics in the least couple of months to no acclaim, I stand down as a topic writer. Gaming is pah, Music rocks. I'm learning the guitar you see.
Just for you I will totally rip the talent out of the Spice Girls.
For they have none.
Done, the end.
No seriously, I'll do a post soon.

No worries!
I have missed your many, many words though. And our little spats with me goading you into going mental.
Go on, post a long one. For old time's sakes, just one of your patent "Dan's many words" topics.
No sarcasm, I want to see another one of your momentous postings.

King of irony.
I'm gobby but ultimately aware of my mortality being nearer due to my addiction.
Just thought I'd slam that on the end so people realised I was being not entirely serious with the post.
Didn't quite work though it would appear...
