lol this sounds like a petting zoo/too big of a deal, just leave it like it is.


Or make it non-smoking, but dont put the smokers in a little plexiglass room wtf

Gotta vote no smoking.. you smell like crap when you get home and your eyes are watering all night..

I'll pay a dollar more a drink to make up for it any day!

petting zoo, well sort of but I don't want to pet them and get that smell on me. Hence the hamster cage so I can watch with out smelling/touching, but patronizing, yes.

Definately for the smoking ban. I hate smelling like smoke. I don't see why anyone thinks it's their right to smoke in a crowded room thus bothering other people who may not smoke. Show a little consideration. If you can't handle walking outside or going a few minutes without a smoke, then that's a shame. There may be some people who decide not to come, but who knows, maybe some people will be attracted to the idea of a non smoking club.

I have no problem with stepping outside to smoke, but dammit if I miss something good inside I'm going to be pissed. I try to be as courteous as I can with cigarettes, I know most people hate them and automatically view people who smoke as "disgusting" so I try to be discrete, keep the cigarette away from people I know how annoying it is to get burned, and throw the bud in a tray or trashcan, I never ash on the floor

Other than that I don't know what to say, I don't smoke very regularly, but I really enjoy my cigs while I'm out. I know that this argument is basically unwinnable being on the smoking side, so I don't think it's worth pursuing it anymore.

Do what you gotta do, smokers are people too!


And yes, thank you for at least trying to be courteous. Wish there were more smokers like you. I'm not trying to hate on smokers, but when they blow smoke in your face and you come home from shows all the time reeking of smoke, it's hard not to be a little mad. I had to do laundry today just so my smoky clothes from last night wouldn't smell up my room.

yeah I would like to thank all the courteous smokers, I know I have been the most outspoken voice of the non smokers on this, and it really does steam me up. But I really do appreciate the smoker who actually thinks of others and takes it outside. That is all that is being asked by the non smoker. It's not a "smokers not allowed" not like your going to be asked to leave if you smell of cigs! We'll still talk to you, even go out side with you for company during your time of need. Can you feel the love? I think it's the piano Jazz I am playing! :)

When i drink...I smoke...

I say keep it the way it is.

If the non-smokers have that big of a problem with people lighting up a ciggy then oh well.

These are the things that happen in a clubbing environment.

In fact, a lot of people in this world who smoke take non-smokers into great consideration and smoke outside ALLLLL the time.:rolleyes:

Going out to a club or a bar entails letting go. If i have to worry about another person's lungs I might as well stay in.... and that's not going to happen. :thepirate

If people want to smoke, let them.

*rings a freedom bell*

As a smoker, I can honestly say I don't really care either way. I say keep it smoking if it's making you money. I don't usually smoke when I go to clubs since I don't want to carry extra in my pockets. If someone offers me one, that's different.

Something to keep in mind is the stupid ing laws they're trying to come up with. I recall them trying to pass something saying you can't smoke in public... as in outside.. of a venue. If you get my drift..
cafeine
nvr heard that one as in public, as far as I know it was in pubic as in a venue, and you have to be 20 ft from any entrance to smoke. That's the Law in Gwinnett. The only enforcement I have seen is in the way of health dept. They just check to see if you have non smoking signs, or they take a point off your score. I guess if someone complains then there might be more enforcement. But that is all I have scene.

as for the freedom bell,

I am all for freedom, liberty ... But when it makes others sick, hence infringing on there freedom, well that's a problem. I'll repeat my main point. Were talking about a nightclub/bar, not a hookah bar or smoke shop. It's not even legal to light up in smoke shops, since they don't card you on the way in! If the Mark had easier access for smokers to smoke outside I don't think there would be much of a discussion personally. I understand especially when it's cold about the smoking, but seriously, do you smoke in your house? I can't think of a single smoker who smokes in there house any more since they don't want the smoke smell and stains of the walls in there any more. Something also to think about, smoke stains the walls. I think a happy medium could be met as in a smokers lounge, but don't know how hard/costly that undertaking would be. Again I would be pleasantly surprised if, "my wildest dreams come true"!
