I always wonder why this one thing deserves special treatment as well. Special bad treatment.
Like any activity, when something bothers us, we notice the offenders, not all the polite people. I’m in my 40’s and I have never had smoke blown in my face. And if I did, I would consider it rude and offensive.
But rude, is rude, is rude. It come in all shapes and sizes. Take a look at the side of the freeway. Do you really think all those yellow trash bags are filled with cigarette butts? Yet smokers are automatically labeled the worst?
And why can’t we take a little personal responsibility? Avoid what bothers us (when possible), or request the person not be inconsiderate. Have any of you said, could you please not blow that my direction (without being judgemental)?
I’ve asked people to please not have their stereo so loud after 10. It’s not that complicated and they’re often oblivious. Just as annoying, but not malicious.
