Through the 19th and in the early half of the 20th century, Londoners used coal for heating their homes, which produced large amounts of smoke. In combination with climatic conditions this often caused a characteristic smog, and London became known for its typical "London Fog", also known as "Pea Soupers". London was sometimes referred to as "The Smoke" because of this. In 1952 this culminated in the disastrous Great Smog of 1952 which lasted for five days and killed over 4,000 people. In response to this, the Clean Air Act 1956 was passed, mandating the creating of "smokeless zones" where the use of "smokeless" fuels was required (this was at a time when most households still used open fires); the Act was effective, though the nickname is still used sarcastically. Many cities have since aquired the nickname "The Smoke", but London was the first, hence "The Old Smoke".
London - "The Old Smoke"

When a woman farts and the expelled gas can’t make its way out it's usual trajectory, so it shoots forward, through the labia, and sometimes INTO the vagina.
Jenny, these jeans are so tight that when I’m sitting down I keep smoking the salmon. Bubbly tickles up my front butt.

This was the name given to blacks in England and in America. It comes from the theory that the two underclass races would eventually merge together and form one race.
'No Blacks, No Irish, No Dogs' - sign posted on many places of work, phasing out a bit before the mid-20th Century. Many Irish pubs have an old sign like this put up above the door for ironic amusement and historical interest. As if to say, 'This is the way things were.'
