i found out my uncle smokes

[Ae...]

i grabed the j and hoped on the mower smoking.

I had the strangest image in my head after reading this, quite amusing actually...

As for asking him to smoke, I would be wary of this. He may be offended that you invaded his privacy. I'd throw some questions on the table first. Get an idea of how he reacts, then see how it goes from there.

Anyways, good luck on you two forming a smoking relationship. It's just one more person that you won't have to worry about being caught by.
