I don't follow. Are you saying former smokers are hypocrites for saying no one should smoke? Isn't a former smoker simply the current "struggling" smoker--whom you are advising us to refrain from calling a hypocrite--who has reached the end of their journey to quit?

Or like I tried with my wife last night: we went out for a nice dinner to celebrate our anniversary. As she takes one last bite of lemon sorbet, she says, "I'm stuffed." I reply, "You are a hypocrite." She says something that I can't post on AGF. I say, "You don't have to get mad...I'm just telling the truth." She says, "I do have to get mad." I say, "Liar!", because I know she has a choice about what she wants to feel. Conversation ended about then. But it was a very pleasant evening....I think. She hasn't spoken to me since then. Women! Sheesh! So sensitive and irrational!

If your speeding and the police have to drive even faster than you to catch up with you and write you a ticket...
Is that hypocrisy? |

No problem. Thanks for clarifying.

seriously, though, this scenario is pretty common: for someone to be eating their main course, spaghetti, or whatever, and then say they are full. if they then proceed to eat something else, i will often say, "hey, i thought you werre full?", to which i always get the reply, "yes, i was, full of spaghetti". |

No, because the police's actions in that situation are within the law (lights, sirens, due caution, etc.). What's hypocritical is when police speed because they think they're going to get away with it (and of course, usually do) or without following proper regulations that govern the operation of their vehicles in situations where they need to exceed the speed limit in the actual course of their duties.
