I don't hate smokers. I just don't want one in the same house as I am, because I get REALLY out of breath and feel ill. My lungs are literally too small and weak. Almost any contaminant can tip the scales from "feeling well" to "feeling ill"; pollen, cat hair, smog, ... smoke.6,697,254,041 replies and I'll be convinced. Of course not all artists smoke, but highlighting an obvious exaggeration used for dramatic effect is still pedantic. So, why the hatred for smokers? Does it matter if I also run 6 miles a day? I'm just questioning the rationale used for everyone's deal breakers. Many have stated that certain aspects of their lists will be evaluated in context, but then a list is irrelevant.
I don't want to live together with someone who makes me ill. I'm able to be your coworker and your friend. The fact that you care for your own health is good, of course; but if you want to live together with me you have to take care of my health too. It's a selfish reason.
