MODERATORS
Creating ANY kind of smoke should be banned in public. By public I don't mean just bus stops and trains and shit. Literally anywhere but maybe your house. And smoking indoors is even more disgusting. Smoking in your garden? Is there anyone living within ~20 feet? Forbidden. Smoke machines on concerts may have an exemption.
I also fucking had enough of people making fires every fucking time the weather gets too hot for me to keep my windows closed. Then my bedroom smells like the great fire of London and good luck having a good night's sleep like that.
Does this include fire pits, bbq, and smokers?
Well, this is an unpopular opinion discussion. It does.
I knew BBQ would be a touchy one, especially among US users. I think it should be possible to have them, but preferably at places that can organise them in parks, or something.
Thanks for explaining!
BBQ is overrated. Especially in the US.
I guess you just offended a BBQ lover. There's 8 billion of us, I don't see why one would downvote someone for having different preferences. Claiming it overrated was a bold move, though.
Oh I enjoy a good BBQ, but the sheer emphasis many put on them is... really weird.
I think many who would downvote me conflate the social aspects with the "BBQ" part. Just throw a damn party! I don't care what you cook but the point is it doesn't NEED to include one of the most wasteful and silly forms of cooking.
Again, not bashing BBQ as an actual cooking practice: A BBQ house restaurant is a beautiful thing if they're not fucking it up. Though that doesn't mean every John Doe needs a BBQ in their back yard for a party!
And internal combustion engines?
Good question. I don't see why people would keep their engine running for an extended period at home, so why not. Exempt on the roads of course.

i thought this was unpopular opinions! 'everyone should be allowed to drive on roads' doesn't sound unpopularto me!
Haha, that's a whole other can of worms!
Omg please ban camp fires at national parks. I came here to breath the fresh air of the mountains and the forest, not to feel like I’m a coal miner in West Virginia.
I think smoking should be made prohibitively expensive. So much that nobody wants it anymore.
I wish such a price existed... Unlike parking violations which are just parking fees for the rich.
This is one of the things that the Netherlands is doing well. There's a huge extra tax on cigarettes. I think one cigarette costs about 50-75 euro cents. It should be more imo but it's in the right direction.
What's your opinion on Aboriginal smoking ceremonies?
I don't get the downvote, it's in fact an interesting question. However, sorry, I'm keeping it unpopular: healthy or not (research has shown it has antimicrobial effects), it's still an annoyance for everyone else.
I can walk around with a water pistol filled with vitamin water, shooting people in the face. Just because it contains vitamins (IT'S GOT ELECTROLYTES!) it doesn't magically make it non-annoying.
