I can't stand smoking at all. The smell alone is vile, but the worst is when people smoke and don't care if the cloud flies into anyone's face. I just cough really loudly and start wafting the air at the point, because even though that's passive aggressive I just think smoking like that is really self-centred. Smoking areas is one thing (I'm fine with these, because people who want to smoke should be able to, just not in my face), but when it's at a bus stop or somewhere similar it's just an extremely selfish gesture.

Both of my parents used to smoke, but my dad outright quit and my mum only smokes the ones that don't produce any smoke now. For years I pestered them whenever they'd start smoking, but they didn't listen to me. In the end they just realised how bad it was for them, and they stopped, much to my delight.

Personally, I'd never dream of smoking, because I think it's a nasty, addictive habit that causes problems in later life. However, I don't condemn people who do smoke as long as they don't act as if it's their right to smoke wherever they want to, without a care in the world. What disgusts me more than anything though is that some people my age think smoking is a good thing, and I just can't understand that path of logic.
