I had a small victory a while back.
I was a student at Iowa State about a year ago, and there was this designated smoking area near the sidewalk along the main drag. Someone had moved a park table near it and the area around it was pretty much covered in ashes and cigarette butts.
So its one afternoon where I'm relaxing with a pipe in mouth and reading the paper like I usually would, when this 300 pound student waddles up to me and starts that fake coughing that the nazis like to make when they feel threatened by our smoke.
Naturally, I turn the page and ignore her.
However, she stands where she is and keeps fake coughing, much to my chagrin. In a voice that just reeks of McDonalds and grease she says "Your smoking is damaging my health! Put it out!"
I look over my paper, and quickly snap back with "Tell ya what, I'll quit smoking if you quit that McDonalds habit!"
She turns red and storms/waddles off, leaving me and my paper in peace.
