I'd love to know where the "fish" analogy comes in, as if it does have a tendency to resemble the latter then its owner is liable to be sent to the bathroom to rectify the situation before I embark on an rainforest charting expedition south of the equator.
Hi all,
You guys are a riot!! :-D
Never heard any of these expressions before.
As to smoking; I always say, EVEN IF cigarettes were $1 a pack, tax included, of WHAT BENEFIT are they?
N O N E !!!!!
None whatsoever!
No vitamins, no minerals. It doesn't increase your beauty or make you smarter. It increases your need to clean, and virtually it's impossible, in many ways. How disgusting is it to see people whose skin has
changed colour to yellowish IN their hands, and or has burns on their fingers from them falling asleep with cig in hand? No end to hassles too.
If you're somewhere, say standing on a corner smoking, dangerous types will come over asking you for an extra one. (Hmmmm, not like they're not looking for someone to rob, anyway.)
Also, what's up with "hey, you got a light?"
If you smoke a pack a day, that's 7,300 a year, and 73,000 in ten years! Why the (insert profanity) DON'T YOU KNOW where the damn lighter is or HAVE ONE??!!??!!!!!?
OKAY, OKAY, OKAY, there IS
ONE benefit (since you've gone there already), a girl could ask you for a smoke/light, but there are ALWAYS strings attached, you know? ;-)
P.S.
Most reprehensible is when people fall asleep with an ashtray on their bed, and we know what happens next....
(Hey, accidents happen, but...)
