From TV show "Just Shoot Me."

Boomer Dad : Honey, of course I was there when you were born. I was in the waiting room with the other fathers. I brought brandy and another brought a box of cigars.

Gen X daughter : That's incredible.

Dad : You don't believe I'd be there to see you born?

Daughter : I can't believe you could smoke and drink in a hospital and I can't do that in a bar.

  1. You can't smoke indoors because people have asthma and even the lingering smell of smoke can trigger an attack.

  2. Pretty sure you can drink in bars.

Yes, that's the exact point of the joke.

In the past, smoking and drinking at the same time was considered a normal activity, so much so that you could drink and smoke in a hospital.

Now, because smoking isn't allowed in bars, you can't drink and smoke in a bar.

Understand?
