I smoke when I feel like smoking.I always take into account my surroundings when doing so. If I'm not smoking, I don't want to smell smoke, so I consider those non-smokers around me. I would consider myself a very polite and conscientious smoker.
On my way from Lowder to Parker today, I decided that I would like to enjoy a delicious cigarette. Having taken my "good" lighter out of my backpack to light a candle at home, I was left with only my "bad" lighter. I struck and stuck repeatedly, but it wouldn't light.

"I think your lighter is telling you that you shouldn't smoke."
Without missing a beat, I said, "Actually, this lighter is a non-sentient object with no position on the healthfulness or detriments of smoking."
She made a smug look and continued to her MRS class.
I can't believe I actually retorted so quickly without tripping on my words or getting visibly angry. I have achieved a new level of anger.
