Smirt

Smirting - a cross between smoking and flirting - is already a huge hit in Dublin where the ban has been in place for two years

I have dated three guys that I smirted with, and one of them is now my current boyfriend.

Smirting is believed to have started in Temple Bar, Dublin, in 2004

As a result, despite the ban, the smoking rate in Ireland has been stuck at around 28% and the expected decline in cigarette consumption never materialized. A new social practice quickly emerged called “smirting”, where young Dubliners smoke and flirt with members of the opposite sex
