Wait, I'm confused. James, which one is hyperbole: that smokers are drug
addicts or that smoke is poison gas? My dad was a chainsmoker and I guess I
got used to it because 2nd hand smoke never really bothered me at clubs, but
really, I'm having trouble finding the hyperbole in Doug's comment.

And while we are on the subject of hyperbole, here is a comment from James, a little further into the discussion:

But I'm going to
bristle whenever someone tries to characterize me in
such a way that I come off as Union Carbide in Bhopal.

todd the anger was easy to spot sure morman

I'll admit that this subject can make me angry, but also point out that my disagreement with James did not lead me to a desire to run him down with my car.
