smokers

[Squeeky]

In this thread we discuss smoking! My mom does, it, and i fucking hate it. In the car, she says it's "out the window" but it blows into my face and having asthma, it's really hard to breathe :(

What's your opinion on smoking? Personally, it's one of my biggest pet peeves. Except ciggars, smoking a cigar is different because:

1. You dont inhale
2. It tastes really good, it's similar to going to a hooka bar :D

Also, answer the poll.

[Squeeky]

AHAHHAAHAHHAAHAHHAAHAHHAAHAHHAAHAHHAAHAHHA

I just realized that my post says "Poll: smokers" :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

[JetRaiden]

Bad Jet! BAD!

[Triggar]

I smoked my first semester of college. Then I went home for Christmas, didn't want to smoke in front of my mother, so I didn't. I never smoked regularly after that.

I occasionally have a cigarette if I'm at the end of my rope and have raging PMS, but I think it's gross and haven't done it since.

[Infernus]

No, I don't smoke... and sure it isn't the healthyest thing in the world... But I'm not completely repulsed by people that do smoke... their choice...


Would I be open to try it? Maybe... Would I make a habit of it? Probably not...

[Squeeky]

I hate you guys :(

[Mag-Mower]

Negatory, cigarettes make me cry :(

[ViperGTS]

I fucking hate any one who smokes. They fucking suck and Im not going to there funeral when they die of cancer.... GAH....it fucking drive me INSANE. Fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck. assholes dont care about any body else...if if they can gbet one more drag in.......FUCK YOU DUMB ASSES!!!!!!

:rant:

[ObnoxiousFrog]

A little. Marlboro menthols make your phlegm minty.

[Lartnev]

Never smoked, disgusting habit, never seen the point. :P~

[I Hate Pants]

I've experimented with it a few times. Can't say I liked it. Alot of my firends smoke. But I don't penalize them for it. Except when my girlfriend does it. Then I ask for her pack and throw it out.

Pot on the other hand is a whole different thing.

[Corrosion]

Never smoked, disgusting habit, never seen the point. :P~
QFT.

[ObnoxiousFrog]

People who get off the bus and start smoking, or brag about using a supermarket as their social scene are retarded. I have no problem with people smoking every once and a while.

[firecrackerNC]

I voted yes for I do smoke cigars, black n milds and once in awhile weed. NEVER will I touch a cigertte tho. There nasty, make you smell bad, do nothing for you at all and are addicting. Least the cigars I get are high quality and black n milds taste kickass.

[OfaLoaf]

My dad quit smoking when I was born...

He'd been smoking since he was a teen, but surprisingly, his lungs are in remarkably good condition.

[MrShooter]

I am repulsed by smokers...if I ever pass by one, I hold my breath.

Smokers suck. (no pun intended) :P~

[Mag-Mower]

Cigarettes Should Be Outlawed!

EDIT: Typo

[DeepStrikeck]

i agree w/ squeeky. I also have asthma and it blows to walk by a smoker. gotta hold my breath =( and i don't approve of it, but if they wanna go ahead and sign their death certificate, that's their perogative.

[mechaman]

I don't never and never plan to. My grandma does and it drives me fucking nuts when I have to be around her.

[JetRaiden]

I have asthma and I still smoke sometimes. :D I dont really have problems with it anymore.

[HunterKiller]

i don't smoke and i never will.

[Corrosion]

Jet: you cant tell what its like until you try it
Jet: /JetRaiden sets mode to PeerPressure
Jet: so come on...
Jet: just trrry it
Jet: 1 cigarette isnt gonna kill you

[Red October]

I didn't know where I stood on the poll, so I said no. I tried cigarettes once....eeeeyyyyyyuuuuuccckkkk!!!!

Cigars and Cloves on the other hand is a different story.....big fatty cuban with some rum sounds good right now actually.

Tip: If your over 21 and in Las Vegas at a gaming table and a bunch of ciggarette smokers join in (or you join), light up the cigar. It clears them like the plague.....FAST! I don't know what it is, but the majority of cigarrette smokers HATE cigars, go figure.

[MrPaul]

Hehe. "****". (Family Guy reference)

I don't smoke, but a lot of my friends do. I'll give it a try later in life, no doubt.

Although, I'm discouraged, because I've kissed a lot of female smokers, and the dry, smokey taste they have = nasty.

[Setari]

i hate people who smoke cigarettes and i hate people who dip, especially people who think they're so unique and cool by doing it. Makes me want to walk up and shove the cigarette down theyre throat and say "How's it feel now?"

[JakeLogan]

I smoke cigarettes and cigars I use to smoke alot pack and a half a day. I'm cutting back though. I'm making my way towards quitting. Even though I tried and failed a couple times. It's hard to quit Not bitching about it though. It's kinda weird really, I use to think it was the "cool" thing to do. Not anymore though. Now I only smoke when I drink which only happens on the weekends when hanging out with my co-workers.

[MattxMosh]

You people are just as bad as Nazis.

Smokers are a very small minority, no need to hate on us.

Ill huff down my Pall Malls and die at 27 and be happy.

[Lartnev]

:nazi:

[Smaug]

smoking a cigar is different because:

1. You dont inhale
2. It tastes really good, it's similar to going to a hooka bar :D

YEAH!!! that way you only get MOUTH CANCER!!!!

[AztecWarrior]

1. I don't, and most probably won't.

2. Secondhand smoke is fucking disgusting.

3. While Big Brother Phillip Morris has told us that there is no safe cigarette (not saying that they are wrong, I'm saying that it's almost propaganda), the quality of the tobacco used in a cigarette is far inferior to that used in a cigar or pipe. If I ever did smoke, a pipe would look ghetto, along with a pocket-watch and top hat.

4. I think people who die of lung cancer and have their families sue the tobacco industries are idiots. It's natural selection at work. Hell, if you really need to sue someone, sue the estate of Charles Darwin.

Not here in England, or so it would seem. I'd say 1/7 - 1/9 people smoke (or at least near me). Which to me, is definitely not a small minority. I may be wrong, but that's how it seems to me.

My mom smokes too its fucking annoying as i have mild asthma to

[Phaden]

I dumped a chick because she smoked. Lost plenty of family to cancer from that so i had no desire to stay there. To me its a big turn off. Specially not fun to kiss someone who smokes.







Oh, and she was a cheating whore. Almost forgot to throw that in.

[Arctik#2]

weed

[JetRaiden]

btw folks, 2nd hand smoke doesnt kill, so chill out.

[MrPaul]

There are several studies that say passive smoking DOES increase the chance of cancer etc by a lot.

[Incompetent]

Don't smoke, never have, probably never will. Don't care if anyone else smokes though, thats there choice, doesn't bother me as long as there's decent ventalation and there not breathing on me. Second hand smoke does have the potential to cause problems, yes, but nowhere near what most people make it out to be.

[JetRaiden]

second hand smoke has never killed, or been proven to kill. whether or not you get cancer is genetic. You can smoke 1 cigarette a day and not get cancer.

[Rbstr]

second hand smoke has never killed, or been proven to kill. whether or not you get cancer is genetic. You can smoke 1 cigarette a day and not get cancer.

Your first two staments are wrong, it may not kill dirrectly but it does increas occurances of cancer. It also may not kill directly but canacer sure does kill you and so does and asthmatic reaction, there was a while were i got realy bad reactions to my mom's smoking(pack a day mabe more now) and thats teh closest i've ever been to dieing(she being a crazy bitch didn't even think to quit, another story for later) it probably also the reason i have asthma in the first place, as nobody in my family has ever had it.

CAncer is determined by your genes i give you that, but the reason the genes are wrong and cause cancer is that they get changed by an outside force IE: Wave collisions(radio, UV, ect.) viri, and chemicals(cigatets comtain two of the above, radioactive matterials, and the chem)

One a day probably won't change the way you would normaly die, but it increases the risk.

[Dharkbayne]

Don't smoke, never have, never will. Fucking gross. Same about when people smoke around me. Hate it.

[JetRaiden]

One a day probably won't change the way you would normaly die, but it increases the risk.

generally speaking, I guess you could say that. but getting cancer from 1 cigarette a day is next to impossible, just think about how little tobacco that is compared to most smokers who have a pack or more a day.

The reason why Smoking hasnt been banned from all resturants and bars nationwide is because there just isnt any strong evidence saying exactly Secondhand smoke can kill. This is why the senate hasnt decided to keep smokers outside for good.

[SDM]

I'm a smokin' mutherfugger.

[Bighoss]

I don't mind other people smoking, seems like a waste of time and almost like a handicap. My parents and I went out sailing for 2 days and this family friend we took ran out if ciggarettes and seemed borderline insane. We had to go back to a port and let him spend 20+ bucks so he wouldn't have another break down.

but thier still put into a special section, and its still disgusting to be inhaling smoke especialy when your thoguth starts to close up

[Triggar]

Second-hand smoke might not have a direct link to lung cancer, but:

-emphysema
-asthma
-bad smell
-burning eyes

have all been closely linked to second-hand smoke. My mother smoked my whole life, and my brother has asthma now. She can't imagine why. Read this thread - "my mom smokes around me, I have asthma". It's irresponsible, imo.

[JetRaiden]

yea, especially around kids or at home, you just need to take it outside.

[Hezzy]

I've smoked only once. The nicotine rush made me feel sick and fall over a few times. I had to sit down until it subsided. After that I had a really bad taste in my mouth, and my throat. I'll never smoke again.

My mum and dad smoke. They really annoy me when they do it, too. They stink the house up with tobacco, make the lovely cream walls turn brown, and basically kill themselves. Not to mention my mum can't flick ash out of the car for her life. For some odd reason it always ends up in the eye of the person sitting behind her, which is normally me.

Not too hard to avoid really.

My thoughts exactly. Took the word right out of my mouth. I think cigars are just as bad as cigarettes though.

[Corrosion]

God I hate the smell of the smoke when someone's smoking. :ugh:

[Dharkbayne]

Not too hard to avoid really.

Why should people who AREN'T smoking have to avoid people who ARE? You're the one deciding to smoke, don't do it around us, not the other way around.

[Ivan]

Let's try not turn this into a flame war, we're all friends here.

[Smaug]

Dhark lives on the west coast, you can't blame him :p . I went to L.A. about a year ago with my mom, and we went to a restaurant and asked for non-smoking seats. The waitress just looked at us funny. I had no idea smoking was banned in public buildings there.

L.A. != Seattle.

Everyone fucking smokes around here, I saw a fucking 5 year old puffing a few weeks ago. Seriously.

"Fuck it, I cant see any fucking sun anymore, Might as well goth it up and die a slow, painful death"

[Angel_of_Death]

If people want to smoke fuckin stop crying there's nothing you can do about it. Alot of people smoke, if you don't like it don't go near them. I smoke casually whenever I'm at parties, or drinking. It's not that bad. You people who complain about cigarettes then praise cigars are fuckin hypocrites.

It's so much nicer with out the smoke in the air.

[Wraithlord]

hate smoking, hate being around smokers, and I hate people who deny they have an addiction to smoking

[Kam]

Don't smoke, never have, never will. Fucking gross. Same about when people smoke around me. Hate it.

One of the few times I have ever completely agreed with you.

EDIT: GO CALIFORNIA! Thank god a state came to their senses.

[Thunder_Hawk]

Don't smoke, never have, never will. Fucking gross. Same about when people smoke around me. Hate it.

Ditto. i hate walking outa the dorm and smelling it form the people standing outside. i don't understand how they can do it without caughing up thier lungs

[Kikinchikin]

I hate smoking. Cigars are the worst, they smell like shit. Pipes I guess aren't too bad, but I hate smoking in general.

Opposite holds true for me. Everytime I go out of state ( I live in CA), "smoking or non?"...my reaction... :huh:

[Indecisive]

Never smoked, disgusting habit, never seen the point. :P~

Quoted for teh truth.

Look at the poll dhark. Its much easier to avid 7 people than 45.

I don't want to share my secondhand snoke anyway, Its not cheap. :p

Hypocrites? Wtf? Because I hate the smell of cigarettes and the taste of them but love a good cigar. Cigarettes suck dude, they smell/taste like shit plus there addicting. CIgars are a) Good Tasteing if you get high quality b) Smell good specialy when flavored c)Have no addicting qualities but taste as in no Nicotine. Theres nothing better then hanging out with a bunch of pals, drinking some Lager and beer and lighting up a cigar.

[NoSurrender]

ill smoke occasionally.

[Hamma]

h8 Smoking, my mom smokes but she hides it from us as she supposedly quit :p

[Ivan]

My grandfather was a chain smoke'n alchy. He would go sit out buy the coal stove smoking and drinking Grain Alcohol, which is some tough shit, and banned in PA now. I forget how much he smoked but let's just say it was very odd to see him with out a cig in his mouth or hand. He'd even sleep with a cig in his right hand a child's sippy cup full of grain. He used the sippy cup so he wouldn't spill it. After he died of multiple lung and kidney problems. We were finding Alcohol and packs of cigs stashed all over the house and even outside in some places.

So lets just say when people started to say I was just like him, that's why I don't smoke and drink. Hell I'm even named after him, but I don't use that name I use my middle name.

[321]

I think it's disgusting and stupid because they are killing themselves and the people around them.

[Kuraltai]

I only smoke when I think .. geez I can't believe no one else said that!

I tried cigarettes when I was a kid .. dad smoke for lotsa years but quit about 15 years ago or so. Used to light up a good cigar or my pipe and sit on the back porch and relax while my wife puffed on her Marlboro .. ah .. those were the days .. :D

Started a new job 3 years ago and don't see the same guys much anymore .. haven't lit a cigar or pipe in .. well quite a while.

[Gigabein]

second hand smoke has never killed, or been proven to kill. whether or not you get cancer is genetic. You can smoke 1 cigarette a day and not get cancer.

So it's OK for me to blow cigarette smoke in the face of a 6-month-old baby? Cause scientifically there's no reason not to, correct?

[Kyonye]

i can't take cigarettes.....grandfather died of it before my time, and i watched my grandmother die from it. i will never smoke cigs. my only problem is that 70% of the students at my college do it so i'm constantly inhaling it, unfortunately. i don't mind Cigars, i know they aren't healthy either but they are no where near as bad as cigarettes are. my favorite cigars is havana dreams cognac, and i also love st. louis rays, ashtons (all of them), and acids...if you are a cigar lover, you mus try an acid (any one, doesn't matter).

[Kyonye]

new york has also banned any form of smoking in public places.

[Sputty]

I smoke man pole, not cigarettes

[Triggar]

Found this article this morning (http://www.iol.co.za/index.php?set_id=1&click_id=31&art_id=qw1094984284543B216)

[NSFS] (Not Safe for Sputty)

London - Dogs living with smokers have a higher incidence of serious conditions such as asthma, nasal and sinus cancer and lung cancer than those who have non-smoking owners, a pet insurer in Britain says.

Research carried out in the United States also shows that cats living in smoking households are twice as likely to develop certain forms of cancer, including lymphoma, Asda Pet Insurance said.

"Many people don't realise that passive smoking can have a very harmful impact on pets in the home, with knock-on implications for vet bills," Gev Lynott, director of financial services at Asda, said.

The effects of passive smoking are greater on young animals because their lungs are smaller, their immune systems are less well-developed and they breathe faster, the insurer quoted veterinarians as saying.

[Derfud]

I smoke oregano, someitmes basil.

[BUGGER]

I smoked pot once a year ago because of peer pressure and got into alot of trouble. I dont want to go through that again.


Thank god i'm a picky eater/taster.

[_-Gunslinger-_]

Pot for teh win!! Cigaretts are bad but unless you are taking every concerted effort to keep yourself healthy stfu. I had some guy tell me to put my ciggarett out (when I smoked) while he gobbled down 2 big macs and fries. If your not exercising and eating semi-correctly then why should I care about your health. Athsma is different though, medical condition trumps my right to smoke.

On the note of cigaretts causing cancer never been "proven" just strongly suggested. Smokers on average have a unhealthier life, they tend to eat less or eat worse. Also they work out less.

Anyone have a link to a case of a person suing the tobacco companies because of addiction? What about after '64? Last I checked there have only been a handful that won in the 90's on the grounds that they didnt know they would get addicted. I know that nowadays you can sue for that, and hope to win.

Would you like it if grease shot into your mouth from his Big Mac every time he took a bite? That's about how I view secondhand smoke. The difference is you harm your body AND his by smoking; he only hurts himself with the unhealthy food.

i smoke but i have a good reason as i am in the army and serving out in iraq for another tour of duty (cpl.o.summers british army-royal hussars tanks) and belive me when i say the reason quite a few army/navy/airforce guys smoke is the fact tht when your under fire stressed out and down in the dumps a *** can help you out and calm you down i only smoked half-way through my first tour when my tank came under fire and a round impacted off my hatch and grazed my ear ( i was turned out at the time) when we were goin down a road.THAT AND ONLY that made me start smoking i was shaking for about 3 hours and chain smoking now i am not hooked as such and sometimes go with half a *** every 3 days ,and im still very fit.
