Newton City Hall leaves her fuming - and gasping for air
Margalit, who has a heart condition and asthma, wonders what brand of idiot decided to put the designated smoking area at City Hall right at the handicap entrance - where she was today, waiting for a cab:
When the first woman came out, lighting up the second she hit the fresh air, I asked her to please not smoke right in front of me. She gave me one of those "you frigging bitch" looks and moved to the side a bit. Then another and another and another woman came out, all lighting up the second their feet hit the stairs. Soon there were 10 of them in a cloud of smoke.
Me? I was choking and coughing so hard that I started to heave. Did them move? Why no, they did not. I couldn't move. I was waiting on a taxi and that was the only bench out there. But they could have gone elsewhere especially after they heard me choking and heaving. ...

Ruin their Shoes
It worked for me when I was pregnant and some asshole on the T platform at Harvard not only wouldn't take it elsewhere, but bitched at me about "his rights" and "problem people like you"
So when I needed to throw up, which didn't take long in that state, I barfed on his shoes. The T cops he went crying to handed him a ticket and threw him out, laughing at him all the way.
I bow to the mas--mistress.
Swirlygrrl, I am in awe. Gutsy in more ways than one.
