Re: lighters/airports/airplanes
Yea, and doing that on a plane is a federal offense. Not a good idea.

Greyhound busses have bathrooms?
Sweet!
I wonder if there's a Greyhound equivalent to joining "the mile-high club?"

Don't claim within specified period, they auction it in a lot auction to local flea market dealers.

An even bigger jerk went up and told the driver.
I was stuck at a rest stop for about 30 minutes while they waited for the highway patrol to arrive and do the paperwork (take statements etc.) and arrested the guy.
On the bright side, we were allowed off the bus while they waited, so I could smoke.
If I had to sit near full on tobacco smoke for as long as a bus ride (I assume an hour+) I would have bloody noses and swollen sinuses for a few days.

Re: lighters/airports/airplanes
I'm really tired of smokers thinking they have some sort of "right" to poison the air wherever they are. If you can't make it a couple of hours without a cigarette, don't take the smurfing bus.
Grandfatherly advice: You can drink 'em pretty, but you can't drink 'em smart.

You get that on greyhound anyway from the fumes that result from the chemical toilet.
I try to sit as close to the front as I can for that reason.

Re: lighters/airports/airplanes
I hate it when the smoker pops a smoke next to me if he is taking to me. I mean, not only is he intoxicating me and my small lungs: knowing I am a kid, but it also seems rude to interrupt me that way. It always seems as they somehow need to get high to ignore me. And if I ask if they can smoke elsewhere they give me the look. Here is the description. They raise an eyebrow, squint the other one, sharply frown at me and then they chuckle. WTF.

Re: lighters/airports/airplanes
gd, you're not intimidating enough. Not too long ago, I remember getting on planes to and from Europe, and the entire plane starts smoking and drinking as if it was a wedding reception. I was never a smoker, but it's funny how it was all good until recently to smoke all you want, everywhere. If it's such a crime, now, where are my reparations for enduring all that crap until now?
If you look around the table and can't tell who the sucker is, it's you.

You can't even guess my school's name, Bren. When I finally go home I am going back to cop lambo. I really wanted a nice share but the dream is over.

I tried that.
She knew I was lying, so I told her you put me up to it.
She's now very angry, and says there will be no more hot herp talk.
Sorry.
