Smokin Bébé ! The Update
France, Belgium 1900
Rude, selfish, and dangerous for others within breathing distance.
Caution, here
Yikes
In France the many smokers, are clueless and selfish! Besides being about the rudest people on the planet they are also bad for your health. Walking on the streets of Paris is full of peril, you seriously risk exposing your lungs to air that is cigarette-saturated.
