You know what really pisses me off???

Smokers who cant wait 5 bloody seconds to walk outside the shopping centre to light up.

We just came back from Rosebank Mall, we had lunch at the Black Steer and bought some long sleeved T-shirts for Paul and we were making our way from one exit to the other where our car was parked. 

At the first exit, about 6 paces from the door some guy just lights up, he was walking towards the door, he was obviously going outside, is he that addicted, that in need of the first puff that he couldn't take 6 steps and then light up???

Then as we are walking towards our exit, a women lights up her cigarette about 10 paces from the door, right under a sign that says NO SMOKING!  She was also making her way towards the exit.  Was it really necessary to light up right there, was it soooooo difficult to wait the extra 5 seconds?

Before you ask, yes, I'm an ex-smoker, I haven't smoked in over 6 years.  No, I don't have a problem with people smoking, its their body, their lungs and they have every right to smoke if they want to.  Just do it in a smoking area.  Away from children and pregnant women and people with asthma and people who don't want to breath secondary smoke.  We are not asking for much, just a few steps more and you can smoke to your hearts content, outside or in specially demarcated areas.
