no butts about it...

To the woman with the three children you were ignoring at the park today:

I don't care if you smoke. Hell, I used to do it myself. But, maybe you could think twice before you light up at a children's playground, ten feet away from where my child just started playing with the manual excavator. What you did today was inappropriate, inconsiderate, rude and unacceptable. Because, even if I did enjoy it in the past, I'd rather my children not be exposed to secondhand smoke and I'd really prefer they do not pick up this habit in the future. So the only one I will be apologizing to for loudly stating to Sam that it was disgusting and that we needed to go play on the slide for awhile is Sam. He doesn't particularly care for being hustled away from his absolute favorite feature at the park.
