One Of Life's Mysteries


Why do smokers drive around with their window down? I assume if they smoke they like smoke, so isn't letting in the fresh air kind of counter productive?

Re: One Of Life's Mysteries


I smoked all my life......til now!

I always had my window cracked a bit.

Maybe just a habit.

Now I am a non-smoker. Day 19. I miss smoking.

Usually to throw the lit stub out the window. Rather litter and risk a fire than dirty the ashtray

I'm sorry but some smoker use the ash tray, but some smoker will hang any who leaves a butt on a jobsite, one of the rules I stick by

Hey Mike, I'm a smoker and all the ads say lately that second hand smoke is a killer. So I keep my window down to avoid the second hand smoke !!!

Re: One Of Life's Mysteries


And, in all honesty, I'd be more than willing to smoke EVERYONE'S secondhand smoke right now!
