Yes and thank goodness.

Smokers can do it in their home and cars. Not in public. Why put your disgusting smoke in the air? IF you do it to me, fine. But to little kids. UNACCEPTABLE.

Yeah, and now if Nevada would follow I would be pleased. Unfortunately, smoking is still allowed in public here.

Why do people eat shrimp? It is disgusting and nasty. I don't appreciate the stench of shellfish anywhere around me.
