I don't think they will respect his wishes, they will just think he is making a fuss about nothing. However, one could try I suppose.

You do realize that smoking pot is far better for you than smoking tobacco ?? Or are you one of those who thinks pot is a dangerous drug ?

This is what you are missing! She doesn't give quantities in this video or mention the funny walk, that was in the programme itself.

Clubs have started giving out free deoderant to people, as the stench of stale sweat has now replaced that of cigarettes.

Previously, it wasn't noticeable and yes the Spanish are a smelly bunch, not just the men either.

Pure Genius!!
Not only the Spanish. I have a friend who is a taxi driver in the UK. He hates the sweaty ***** that now get in his car!
Now the sprays they do for clubs to hide the stench of sweat is seemly bad for those with asthma too.

There will be a sweat ban soon I guess.

Got to say cigarette smell is better than sweat smell.

Pot? How quaint.

Most people I know stopped calling it that about 30 years ago.

Just depend whether you prefer life on the funny farm to life in the cancer ward.

Hi, you associate funny farm with pot and cigarettes with cancer. I can understand the latter, but the former ? How on earth can pot and a psychiatric institution have any relevant association with one another ?

I don't think it is particularly dangerous, but I do think that heavy smokers of pot eventually do their heads in, I have met several.

And unlike smoking tobacco, it is illegal (It's not been legalised yet, has it?).

Well I've never smoked it and I'm an old woman, that's my excuse.

I think it's quite nice to be quaint.
