A packet a day keeps the housemates away
Has anyone else ever lived with a packet a day smoker? Who's been going for more years than I can conveniently count?

Mr Kitimariana and I had a friend stay with us for a bit while he left his demented missus, and whilst he's one of the nicest blokes you could hope to meet, every morning was the same.

He'd wake up, stumble to the bathroom, and proceed to spend anything from 10 to 20 minutes coughing, hacking and spewing up what can only be described as "gunk" into the sink.

I think I found some lung in there once. Surely he needs that?

Back at my parent's house
the next door neighbour does exactly the same thing every morning. The noise is excruciating so thank fucking Jesus I am not privvy to see the aftermath of whatever is left in the sink.

Nice mental images this morning!

liquid smoke
Ever wonder where "liquid smoke" comes from before?

I've been smoking for 15 years
and never once have I had to perform this act.
I do know what you mean though, I lived with someone who would be like that every day.
