I never use a case for my phone, and have broken them only twice, which is a better success rate than most people I know. I wouldn’t buy a sports car and cover it up to drive it, so why would I cover my expensive phone to use it? I do get AppleCare though, so I’m not out a full 1k if disaster strikes.

My point is that it is within the realm of normal annoyances from other people and there should be a reasonable expectation of both politeness from the smoker and tolerance from others. A strong perfume, a fart, body odor, spicy food, and many other gasses can be encountered at any point from a similar distance, but nobody suggests punishing people for those.

I find the desire to over legislate things due to personal preferences about how other people behave is a bigger and more annoying vice than smoking.

Like outside more than 10 feet from a doorway? Surely 10 feet is enough to change your walking path and save yourself from a waft.

Everyone forces their vice on bystanders in some capacity. I consider censorship and Puritanism to be a vice that is forced in nearly every aspect of society. It’s moral fetishism.

Between the two, I’d rather see someone smoke a cigarette than be judgmental towards others.

School playground might be a bit much, but I unironically support your right to sun your anus in the park. We all have them, we shouldn’t be ashamed.

So where do you fall on the natural tobacco brands?

I don’t smoke, but I also don’t want to live in a world where you can’t.

I don’t smoke.

I’m doing none of those things, I just think it is plausible that he was hanging out with some swingers and accidentally got a woman pregnant in a time when abortion was less common. I also don’t think that it is likely that the daughter has the power to edit the articles about this event, so they can use whatever word they want.

Why do you doubt that? It seems to be pretty in line with the promiscuous behavior of his social circle at the time.
