Queensland has the most retarded smoking laws. Can't by groceries and smokes at the same time, have to walk to the cigarette counter. Festivals where you can't take drinks into the smoking area. Pubs where you can't take a bowl of chips into the smoking area. Can't have an type of entertainment (TV) in the smoking area.

If you smoke, don't even think of visiting Queensland.

They are designed to be as killjoy as possible. Sucks if you have an addiction obviously. But effective at a societal level.

Give up the fags, it'll be the best thing you ever do for yourself. If you don't like patches, Zyban is quite effective and low side effect.

Those smoking laws are strict, not "retarded".
