Adding to the List of Things that Tick Me Off

03/04/2007

I suppose some of the readers of this blog may view me as the consummate whiner, especially since some of my posts have a theme with me whining about something.  Well, today’s is no different.

Cigar smokers piss me off and from this point on they are added to my ever growing list.  Cigar smokers are the most inconsiderate people on the face of the earth.  They are no better than someone who would fart in your face and smile while they do it.  They are pigs of the worst kind.  Freud would have a field day analyzing cigar smokers – it has to be a sexual thing.  A fetish, perhaps?

The Nancy and I went to the Outback Steakhouse in Bridgeport, WV last night.  Typically when we go there we always sit at the bar.  I do not like smoky bars, but we enjoy the interaction that typically occurs at the bar.  The Outback we go to near where we live in Beautiful Downtown Berkeley Springs, WV, aka Town of Bath, population 711, is non-smoking.  The one in Bridgeport is not.  We overlook this and most of the time the smoke level is bearable.  There really are fewer people smoking these days.  Unfortunately for us last night, Bonehead the Cigar Smoker was given an evening pass from the institution and decided to see how many meals he could spoil with his inconsiderate sex toy lookalike.

I so wanted to get up in his face and nicely tell him if he didn’t put out the cigar I would shove it up his…well, suffice it to say I am a peace lover, and to save my marriage and not create a scene, I sat there choking on the disgusting, vulgar, acerbic odor of a cigar that resembled a big turd and most certainly was the same color.  Bonehead boy was busy sitting at a small table behind me thinking he was impressing the world with his big, nasty replacement for heterosexual gratification.  Maybe his date was impressed; I was not.  I sincerely hope his clothes smell as bad this morning as mine do.  He probably thinks he smells like a man.  Some of you are probably thinking this is what I get for sitting in a designated smoking section.  Maybe it is, but then I wouldn’t have anything to whine about.

And that is all I have to say about that…
