Cigarettes and you.

[arkwright]

Im a smoker and i is smoking right now.

i dont get bothered by the anti smoking brigade. They have a right to there opinion just as i have a right to smoke.

 

[la-le-lu-li-lo]

i'm partial to camel no.9 menthe 100s.

cliche girl cigarettes, i know. /:

SMOKING IS EVIL MWAHAHAHAH...

kidding, smoke what you want. I don't really care if people smoke, i just don't like the smell tbh.

 

[la-le-lu-li-lo]

i don't like the smell of old smoke at all.
but a freshly lit cigarette is another story.

hence why showers = awesome.

i like the truth commercial about big bad tobacco executives.
'smoke and you won't beat your wife.' oh lol.

also, i'd like to add that my omah [great grandmother] has smoked her whole life and could still probably kick my ass. needless to say she as well as the rest of my smoking grandparents are in fabulous health.

i think things like diet & exercise play a big role in health too. as well as genetic predisposition to cancer. but everyone knows that, right?

my friend & i were joking about making a short about quitting smoking and turning to alcohol instead, and all this ridiculousness ensues. the end would read 'smoking saves lives.'

of course a complete joke, for cancer is a pretty serious deal.

I absolutely HATE the stench of cigarette smoke.

However, I hate jumping on people for it because it achieves absolutely nothing and makes me look like a jackass.

This. Also, I got stuck behind a guy smoking a big fat doobie on the way to school, which rendered me almost unconscious. Of course, when I slumped on a bench, my 'friends' just laughed at me

If you smoke, and you are anti-weed.


I am allowed to hit you.

Agreed!

I used to bug people about smoking but eventually I stopped for a few reasons. Firstly, bugging them about it only causes them to do it more. Secondly, I've accepted that smoking is here to stay and if someone else is stupid enough to have their lungs rot away and spend thousands of dollars to do it, whatever, natural selection I say.

Fact is, I hate smoking with every fibre of my being, but I've learned to stop hating smokers. I don't mind if other people smoke in my company, I don't mind if they smoke in the car as long as I roll the window down. Your lungs, your money, your life.

I don't like all the blatant propaganda that everyone throws at young people ('I'm not here today to tell you not to smoke, I'm just warning you of the dangers'), but I still don't think I'd ever do it. That said, I tried a Marlboro menthal once.. which tasted surprisingly nice.

I don't smoke personally, but I have to say that every smoker I've met so far has been really, really, really considerate. I've had people asking me if I'm OK with them lighting up in their cars, knowing full well the "your car, your rules" rule. Most smokers know the problems fags come with, and have accepted that a long time ago. They also tend to be far more relaxed than non-smokers.

 

[Guybrush Threepwood]

every time I hear someone go on about how bad they are for me, it makes me want to light up right there.

i'm a pretty irregular smoker, once or twice a month when i'm out with friends, but this is so true. every time one of my mates lights up when we're out skating i'm not too bothered about it, as soon as someone starts saying how terrible it is it makes me want one.
human nature is odd D:

i kind of want to quit completely but whenever i'm out for a few drinks i kinda get drawn to them =/
ah well.

incidentally, Lucky Strike; toasted is the way forward xD

 

[S.H.A.R.P.]

I'm a smoker (Camel filters regular), but I haven't been too much bothered by people around me. I try and be inconspicuous while smoking. Not being close to non smokers, and trying to get the smoke out of their way. Even I am annoyed when a person lights up cigarette nearly in my face while, and is careless of the direction his smoke goes. Second hand smoke is really obnoxious when you're not smoking yourself at that moment.

 

[JanatUrlich]

Haha I'm such a sproradic smoker that people get confused XD It's like "Oh, have you quit?" "Nah I just can't be bothered to buy any"

I'm lucky that I don't have an addictive personality I guess

So no, not many people lecture me, it's mostly just suprise. But I don't get why smokers are targetted all the time by haters while morbidly obese people are politely ignored

double standaaaaaards! Obese people are in just as much danger

 

[Cowabungaa]

I only start being protective when the people close to me do it. Usually I go by the "as long as you don't cram it up my face, I'm cool with" policy, but when a person dear to me starts smoking I feel terrible about it. Smoking is fucking up my grandma, and it's horrible for the whole family.

 

[Skeleon]

I've given up on telling smokers to stop a long time ago.
Yes, I care. 'Cause I've seen several of the results. But telling them just never accomplishes anything.
As a med-student, I can tell you that the results of continued smoking are very, very ugly.
And carcinoma is probably one of the better options, considering you'll die quickly and not suffer for that long.
Once I'm a doctor, I'll be sure to bother my patients about it, though.
Maybe I can inspire some fear and make them stop.

 

[Rickyvantof]

I never buy cigs but I always end up smoking anyway...
I don't mind people smoking, it's their decision and chances of getting an illness from second-hand smoking are pretty low. (AFAIK)

 

[Ziadaine_v1legacy]

I just dont know how ye'r can honestly stand (or sit) there, puff away knowing all the effects and just think "meh". I personally dont give two-shits who smokes since its your body but just dont bring the damn smell/smoke towards me, gives me a headache. >.>

Agreed, Same with alcoholics, we smokers at least keep our masochism to ourselves.
