I don't get it... they're flirting outside the public place (going outside in public where smoking is prohibited), or outside the public place within which smoking is prohibited? The grammar is confusing. Also I'm not sure what this has to do either with smoking, except for the flirting being tangential to where it's banned. -Timvasquez 04:01, 7 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, what does this have to do with smoking at all? Melchoir 03:53, 26 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

It's pretty simple. Smokers congregate outside places where smoking is banned - I'd say it was at least as common outside workplaces as it is outside places like bars and restaurants. Because they are forced to stand outside together, they flirt with each other. They offer each other cigarettes and lights. Together, they feel persecuted, and they can bond with each other. So the fact of them being smokers is integral to the flirting. Richardrj 14:51, 10 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
