I am so annoyed.
The ban on smoking and all fag-gotty activities in non-airconditioned eating establishments came into effect on 1st July 2006.
So since the day before, I have joined the ranks of the Sad Fags all over our little smog-free island, in looking for the pathetic yellow box/smokers' corner at cafes and coffeeshops, to get that nicotine fix and do my part for the atmospheric-carcinogen index =P
And boy it sucks. Big time.
It sucks because we cannot suck at our favorite table after our favorite meal at our favorite eating place when we need to suck because we had a sucky day at work and sucking gives us sensational relief especially after such a suck-culent indulgence >(
Some places have not even bothered to apply for permission to section off 10-20% of their sitting capacity to accommodate us suckers and puffers. And so you see groups of law-abiding citizen-chimneys, huddled together around dustbins, whispering in hushed tones about this latest dumb-decree by our beloved Nanny-state.
What will they think of next? A Certificate of Entitlement for each carton of ciggies? A Pollution Tax for smokers? How does 50 bucks for a soft-pack of twenties sound to you? =/
Sigh sigh sigh...hiaz
