“Mama ain’t goin’ nowhere til she has her smoke.”

True story: I spent one summer humping part time with UPS as a helper, riding with a driver. The guy was 50 but looked 70, smoked like chimney. On my second week we were out on route when he started complaining of chest pains; he called it in, and the supervisor told me to drive him to a nearby hospital. We were a block away and he told me to pull over, and he lights a cigarette because “the c\*\*ksuckers won’t let me have one in there.”
