This hilarious public service announcement produced by the Canadian Ministry of Health seems to be derived from an old Steve Martin joke:
Smoker: Do you mind if I smoke?
Steve Martin: No. Do you mind if I fart?
I know I have ripped a few at concerts whenever smoking douchebags are violating the city ordinance. I should also demand fart breaks to counter all the smokers at work who get to not follow their schedule. The e-smokers aren’t much better when they do it in their cubes, thinking the rest of us don’t notice. They need to go outside because they’re still getting residue on everything.
Anyway, with all the cold medicine I’ve been taking, I could probably rival my ex-roommate Paul for being the life of the party. Paul’s ability was legendary for its comic timing in college. Hopefully this youtube movie will bring him a smile.
This would never fly in America due to the tobacco industry still having pull and how some smokers (and oddly non-) I’ve known trying to drag civil liberties into the issue, namely the Paultards.
