If you want to get picky, since "Smoke what you like"
is not an implication, it doesn't even have a contrapositive.
Although there something seductively Lutheran about
your version.

But then you have to wait in line behind the Texas Lotto
junkies. (Step 1: Buy 20 Scratch-offs. Step 2: Stand
at counter and scratch them off. Step 3: Turn in your
winners for the 6 bucks you just "won" (i.e. don't
think about the 14 bucks you just lost.) Step 5: Buy
6 more Scratch-Offs. Step 6: Scratch them off, while
remaining in the way. Step 7: Cash in the 1 dollar of
winnings. Step 8: Add 4 dollars to the pot and buy
5 Powerball tickets, spending at least 1/2 hour picking
your numbers. Step 9: Feint walking away, then remember
that you need to pay for the $2 of gas you can barely
afford.)

Heck, the Diamond Shamrock (now "Valero"!!!) across the
street from my place was robbed twice while I was
waiting in line to buy the Sunday paper.

Hmmmmmm......salt.....
