Today, I was yelled at for smoking at a bus stop, because a woman didn't appreciate me smoking by her children. She did this while waving her own lit cigarette in my face. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I was having a cigarette in a smoking area when a mother with a pram strode towards me and exaggerated a cough to make some sort of point. Reluctantly, I put it out and walked off. I then turned around to see her lighting up a cigarette, and blowing smoke all over her baby. FML
Today, I was at an outdoor market with my family. We'd had dinner and were about to leave when two women stood next to our table, smoking. We called out to let them know they could have it, as we were leaving. They thought we were complaining about the smoke. They yelled at us and stormed off, while the other tables stared. FML
Today, a stranger had a go at me for smoking while pregnant. I'm a guy. FML
Today, some guy at the bus stop screamed at me because the bus was coming and I wasn’t wearing my mask. I was standing 25 feet from the stop finishing a smoke and there was no one around me. When I sat down on the bus, with my mask on, he stared me down the whole ride. FML
Today, while driving me to the hospital because I was having an asthma attack, my mother lit a cigarette. FML
Today, I was on my way home on my bike when a lady in a 4WD cut me off while beeping her horn and calling me a "stupid f**ker who should get a proper education." In her car, she was smoking, and her three children weren't wearing seat belts. FML
Today, while waiting for a bus, someone started smoking at the bus shelter, which is illegal in my city. I politely asked him to stop smoking, citing the city ordinance. He just cackled and said that if I'm so concerned about the state of my health, I should start by losing 90 pounds. FML
Today, I was standing on a balcony smoking a cigarette when I noticed a woman giving me strange looks. When I put the cigarette out and went to walk inside she said "You shouldn't smoke while you're pregnant." I'm not pregnant. FML
Today, I walked past a few of my coworkers sitting outside smoking. As I got a whiff of the smoke, I coughed. They immediately started to defend their habit, and I was told to "mind my own fucking business." I wasn't trying to be rude; I'm actually allergic to cigarette smoke. FML
Today, my boyfriend and I were visiting his parents. When we got there, I hugged his mother, and she glared at me. Later that day, I heard her telling her son that he should leave me because I smell like cigarettes, and she hates smokers. I don't smoke, my boyfriend does. He did all the way there. FML

Well neither of you should have been smoking at the bus stop anyway.

Yep, last time I looked it's illegal as its technically a work place, for the bus driver

Pretty sure the BUS is the bus driver's workplace. 99.999% of the time the bus driver doesn't even leave the vehicle unless he's on break or done for the day. Now, enclosed bus stops (little shelters), that's illegal. Outside at a sign? It's perfectly legal.

Lol I'm pretty sure its a Hijab, and that she's not a nun. Modesty is a lost art these days I guess.

She's right in that it is rude to smoke around other people who probably don't want to die from your second-hand smoke, and its especially bad if its around children, but I hope you at least pointed out her hypocrisy.

55 - get over yourself. Nobody is gonna die from being around a little second hand smoke at a bus stop.

I hate smoking myself but if you are standing at a bus stop you will be getting fumes from traffic and that can be more dangerous than second hand smoke.
TheDrifter 24
Yup. I'm still baffled by people thinking you're a nun, I guess traditional fashions aren't in style everywhere.

It cracks me up when fat women walk up to me and tell me I shouldn't smoke because it's bad for my health. I've stopped giving a shit about humanity and just tell them they shouldn't be fat because it's bad for their health. Sick of the drunks, the obese, the women with too many children and no daddy in sight telling me how bad of a person I am for having a cigarette. I'm aware I made a poor life choice, now leave me alone to enjoy it and I'll leave you alone to enjoy yours

Thank you. I hate it when people condemn smokers for enjoying a cig when they're stuffing their faces and drinking diet soda with cancerous aspartame. Hypocrites.
