Smokers and Dance floors!!!

**SnowWhite** · 12-08-2002, 12:38 PM

WHY DO PEOPLE INSIST ON SMOKING ON THE DANCE FLOOR???

After being burnt for the umpteeenth time at trancemit, in the middle of a crowded dance floor, by some random gurner who thinks it's cool to light a ciggie and wave it around furiously like a glow fuken stick.

My question is Why the fuck do you people do this??~??

It's not hard to shift to the sides of the dance floor for the 2 minutes it takes to suck one back. But Nooooo instead i'll spend 10 minutes waving the bloody thing around, have two drags and burn 3 people in the process!!

For fuck sake people if ya gunna smoke in the middle of a crowded dance floor, try and keep control of the hand in which you are holding it. Don't wave it around like a retard cause one day your gunna hit someone in the eye and do some major damage, i just hope it's not me.

There's something very very wrong with the fact that I have to leave the nightclub to get some fresh air

boooo smokers.

**Nepheline** · 12-08-2002, 12:45 PM

definitely! the majority of smokers are inconsiderate. the fact they are all headed for a horrible and painful death via smoking and its effects is well deserving!

hitmonlee · 12-08-2002, 12:50 PM

DEATH TO ALL SMOKERS!
hang on.... hehehehe

i saw no smoking signs in the globe.

snowy i'm afraid smokers ARE retards, and will behave as such.

**Player One** · 12-08-2002, 12:52 PM

yeah, smoking and dancing DON'T MIX.

**ABCD2** · 12-08-2002, 12:55 PM

yeh i saw no smoking at globe as well..
is it ever no smoking? i've never been there when its been..

**crave** · 12-08-2002, 01:00 PM

<smoking wench> oh sorry... i didn't mean to burn you... really sorry... (insert sorry-ass sad smile face)

yah right... what's worse is that when yer dancing you start getting all worked out and yer lungs are in full-mode and you gotta breathe in all the dirty dirty smoke...

<EDITED> <ORRIGHT!> < ORRIGHT!> <SHEESHH!!!> <SILLY GIRL!>

**SnowWhite** · 12-08-2002, 01:01 PM

I don't really care if people smoke and smoke in clubs dosn't really bother me in general.

It's just when some dickhead/fannyhead sticks one into your arm or back or burns a hole in your new $85 shirt, whilst trying to dance with arms flying around like a helicopter.

That's when it pisses me off.

i also nearly copped one at blood sugar by some little candy kid waving her arms in the air as if she was doing the mexican wave, luckily I was able to grab her arm just before it hit my face.

I do know several smokers who are considerate, in fact i live with one

they are the worst kind of "smoker"

**Jax** · 12-08-2002, 01:09 PM

I am a smoker, and I do realise it is a horrible habit.

But in a club, I would never go on the dancefloor with a cigarette. Thats just stupid

Or if i did have one on the dancefloor.. it wouldnt be in the middle of it.. only if i was havin a groove in a spacious spot on the outskirts..

**musika** · 12-08-2002, 01:16 PM

i like to dance with a cigarette as it feels just like a glowstick

if you get burnt in the process its your own fault
maybe you were in my pesonal space

winnie reds are the only smoke for me

fag it up i say

**mooki** · 12-08-2002, 01:23 PM

ive never been burnt, because i dont stand near people who smoke on the dancefloor, if i see them next to me i'll normally move because i know they dont give a shit, and in clubs it's their right to smoke... really....

but if any fukker burnt me or my clothes i'd go mental

**musika** · 12-08-2002, 01:29 PM

i have four huge cigarette burns on my right forearm
one on my upper arm
and one on my chin

im not kidding

what shits me is having butts stuck to your shoes when you're dancing

No could never need one that bad.

You can still enjoy the music if you stand up the back, its only 5 minutes and then you can go back.

I really don't feel like smoking when I am on the dancefloor anyway, you are already huffed and puffed, I need as much air as possible.

**SnowWhite** · 12-08-2002, 02:05 PM

hahaah you obviously were not at Trancemit on the weekend, it was up close and personal if you wanted to dance, stand, sit, drink or fag!!!!

Personal space didn't exist unless you farted

**akira** · 12-08-2002, 02:06 PM

Maybe if dance floors weren't so crowded this wouldn't be a problem. We need bigger venues.

**misc.** · 12-08-2002, 02:29 PM

i'm a smoker and i fukn hate smoking on dancefloors, or smokers on dancefloors

however i admit i did light ONE up on the dance floor (towards the back however) at Trancemit on saturday, but thoughtfully cupped it in my hand.

IT WAS ONLY ONE...and it was because i couldn't be arsed going out back and coming back in cos it was fukn crowded

but that's the only time i've ever done it..

**Xtreem** · 12-08-2002, 02:32 PM

Smokers on the dance floor.... and we can make sandwitches..... smokers out there on the dance floor... and we can make sandwitches..... so make your thighs like butter - easy to spread... and we can make sandwitches.....

**Panty Sniffer** · 12-08-2002, 02:50 PM

smokeing on the dancefloor is pretty stupid

much like paying $85 for a shirt

**clambo** · 12-08-2002, 03:08 PM

havent you ever heard the saying : E goes away when ING comes to stay ?? (just a quick english lesson for you )
Nothing wrong with paying 85 for a shirt if you got the cash. However the ciggy burns which may be incurred from smokers on a dance floor. WELL TAT JUS IS A BIG PROBLEM. I unfortunately smoke the cancer sticks. However i have the decency which a lot of smokers do not.

**nigel** · 12-08-2002, 03:09 PM

I gave up smoking almost a year ago, and fuck do I wish clubs were non smoking now.

**Xtreem** · 12-08-2002, 03:13 PM

smoke free nightclubs = HAHAHA that is a funny concept.
When people drink alcohol or take drugs (like at a nightclub) they smoke more... even the people that rarely smoke will light up.

It's good that alot of places have gone smoke free, especially around eating enviroments but to ban smoking from pubs and nightclubs seriously has to be a joke.

**Zeb** · 12-08-2002, 03:16 PM

I've never been burnt because I watch smokers who are flailing their arms with great care.

"Unco-ordinated morons should not be allowed to wield sticks of fire" - Adam Brown (I post this on every smoking thread)

Inhaling smoke all night I cannot avoid if I am at a club and it's extremely painful and frustrating. By the end of most club nights I have lost my voice for the most part

Soon they'll start enforcing the no-smoking lines ie DRUM CLUB and finally clubbing will be a wholly more pleasant experience.

**rexy** · 12-08-2002, 03:17 PM

i reckon it won't be too long now until the clubs here enforce a policy like the american clubs where they have a section for smokers only.... and it is outdoor which is even better for yall non smokers who don't want to inhale second hand smoke / get burnt

but then again, i can only see australian clubs enforcing this when someone who is a non smoke sues a club for a smoking related illness

**Xtreem** · 12-08-2002, 03:18 PM

uncoordinated morons shouldn't be dancing and flailing thier arms around on a dance floor in the first place.. they belong at special school.

**musika** · 12-08-2002, 03:31 PM

i think smoking should be compulsory

**OSC** · 12-08-2002, 03:34 PM

you can't smoke in Canada in pubs, clubs or restaurants....

<end random info>

**musika** · 12-08-2002, 03:36 PM

canada?
where is that?
is that near Busso?

A lot of people also get an increased sex-drive when they're drunk or on drugs, but that doesn't mean they're going to make it legal to fuck in nightclubs

just because it feels good doesn't mean they should be allowed to do it

tell that to the government

**stew** · 12-08-2002, 04:10 PM

I smoke when I dance, but whenever I burn someone (rarely) they look at me then look away before I can compensate with a sincere apology.

So I think if they don't have proper communication skills then I will just continue to passively give them lung cancer until they really do have a reason to notspeak.

Anyway, smoking is a strong part of club culture - if you don't like the persons ability to smoke and dance who is next to you then that is ultimately your problem. So move.

**musika** · 12-08-2002, 04:11 PM

stew can i bum a smoke

**stew** · 12-08-2002, 04:14 PM

no, I only have half a packet left

As long as they're not hurting anyone ("My eyes!!!") I've got no problem with it.

Provided they clean up when they're done

**Dogma** · 12-08-2002, 04:17 PM

ROFL Smoke Free Clubs.

And its not the cigarette's fault that you get burnt, its the person holding it. Should we ban glowsticks because they might whack you in the head, or infact should we remove everyone's arms so that they can't whack u with them?

If you're dancing on the dance floor, and feel like a cigarette, then just cup it, its not that hard.

What the hell are you talking about

You used to be able to smoke in restaurants but it's not fair to say that smoking is a strong part of fine-dining

Adam Brown · 12-08-2002, 04:34 PM

Ooo I just thought of another one:
That's like saying having a bad haircut is a strong part of surfie culture

**musika** · 12-08-2002, 04:37 PM

or
having thrush is just part of working for the sex industry

**Dogma** · 12-08-2002, 04:44 PM

"What the hell are you talking about

U can still smoke in restaurants here, and theres nothing like having a smoke just after eating. Culinary perfection!!!

Adam Brown · 12-08-2002, 04:45 PM

bing-bong

wrong

**medwin** · 12-08-2002, 04:49 PM

I find it hard to think of anything worse than having a smoke while enjoying a good meal!!!

every smoker I have known who has given up, or even attempted to give up has commented on how much better everything tastes after not smoking for a few weeks.

**jayney bear** · 12-08-2002, 04:49 PM

you used to be able 2 smoke on planes

What is culture? Pretty broad question, but it has to do with everything that constructs beliefs, values and attitudes that is present in society.

Smoking is a recreational pastime. So is 'clubbing'.

The connection is that along with the culture of 'clubbing' or 'raving' comes - drugs, alcohol, cigarettes, sex, music. They are all ingredients and for as long as they stay 'legal' they will be part of the culture that constructs 'clubbing'.

Same deal with people smoking in resturants, it used to be part of the culture of "fine-dining" until it was made illegal, then the people who smoked didn't smoke at the resturant and the culture of going and smoking in a resturant died.
