Poll: Do you smoke ?

[AdmiralWolverineLightningbolt]

on occasion
im not technically old enough to buy them (but i could probably pass for 18) and i promised myself a few years ago that i would never pay for something that's slowly killing me

but if there's a fag going ill take it
plus, you know it makes smoking other stuff easier

but i honestly dont know how one can get addicted to them

 

[Shycte]

Nope, and I am not planning to start either.

If you let the nicotine get out of your system before you do another one, you cant get addicted. At least thats what my stoner friends say.

 

[ICantBelieveItGoesBoom]

No I don't.

Also if you're one of those people that smokes while walking down the street, well fucking don't? The number of times I've been stuck behind a guy on a narrow street while he blows smoke right into my face!

I'm surprised I haven't encountered withdrawal symptoms yet.

 

[VintageElise]

I smoke occasionally. Only about 4 a week though.

 

[VicunaBlue]

No never did. I don't see why it isn't painful to people.

I mean,the smoke is over a thousand degrees, and its going into your lungs.won't that hurt after a while?

No... Its not. I don't smoke, but the smoke is usually 150-190 degrees by the time you inhale it, cooler if you're using a bong or hookah.

 

[annoyinglizardvoice]

No, the smell messes me up too badly for me to ever start.
Plus I see pointless chemical addictions as a sign of weakness

aah, that would make some sense
a few of my stoner mates got addicted you see and i never really understood, but they light up way more than me (i swear, one of them once spent an entire week constantly stoned)
so maybe that's why

 

[Daniel Cygnus]

I'll head over to the hookah bar a few times a month, and that's about it. Can't stand weed (for a few reasons, most notably because it smells like ass and poo), and I'm never even gonna start cigarettes. I've seen enough people get addicted to them that I'm completely turned off to them.

 

[Parallel Streaks]

I smoke maybe one a day? I'm not a chain-smoker, I know people who'll get through an entire pack in a day, and frankly I don't see how that's possible, or even preferable. With one a day you get the positive effects, the niccy-rush and such. The second the effects are diluted, and by the third it's just a pointless waste of time.

I only smoke rolling tobacco nowadays, too expensive to buy actual cigarettes, plus they help my hand-eye co-ordination strangely enough, it's a very precise art, rolling.

 

[AdmiralWolverineLightningbolt]

....it's a very precise art, rolling.

yes!
it's taken me around 9 months of practise maybe twice a month at most to get even slightly good at it

ive got friends and back then they couldnt roll for shit
but now, they're like fucking gods at it
crikey... but yeah, it's a fine art and definitely a rewarding one

the first time you roll one and it can be smoked the entire way through without any sideburn from only one light is a very momentous occassion indeed
(by the way, im talking about blunts myself, rolling tobacco's piss easy)

If I were you, I'd take your parents smokes and flush them down the toilet, and continue to do so until they acknowledged that they are the ones with a destructive habit and that if they are responsible parents, they won't make you suffer for their own lack of judgment.

Good luck with that... I hope they flush your stuff because of it.

I somehow doubt HIS stuff are actually of a 100% destructive nature, not just to himself, but to his whole family, as is the case with smokes.

Not the point, if my kid took my things and flushed them, whatever it was, his privacy and possessions are not safe for at least the next month. Same as I'd expect if I did something similar, you don't just go through peoples things, let alone to throw them away.

Do you have a kid?

Fine, change the "throw away" part to just "take away" and you have an extremely common situation in a family. If your kids don't do things like they should you can take it away from them. Example, you kid neglects his homework and school in favor of playing World of Warcrap, despite numerous conversations about how much he should be playing and under what conditions, you can take it away as a very justified and common method of setting him straight.

So, if this kid's parents can't take proper responsibility with their smoking, despite numerous talks about it and proven facts that they are doing something wrong, or at least doing it the wrong way, I definitely think it's justifiable to take away their cigarettes.
With great freedom, comes great responsibility.

The fuck has if I have a kid got to do with anything?

If the parents thought the same as you, there wouldn't be a a kerfuffle about the smoking indoors.
I however don't think like you and doubt the parents do either, therefore he should expect to get punished by them if he tries to do anything with their possessions.
You can tell him he has the morale high ground and should do it all you want, they aren't instantly going to rehabilitate themselves the second he puts them somewhere, he is going to get hit.
(Or whatever punishment is for their household, digging through the toilet to fetch them out, to put them in the bin, would be a start in mine. Teach him about proper waste disposal whilst I'm giving the little thief a lesson.)

On occasions.
I was addicted about two years ago, but i just stopped at one day. After months of not smoking i started to smoke rarely. Sometimes i smoke once in month, once a week or sometimes every day. Depends on my mood.

 

[UkibyTheMaid]

Like, once a month (sometimes not evne that) I smoke a vanilla flavoured cigarette just for it's delicious taste and smell, and occasionally I take a few puffs from my hookah, just to relax.

But, that's about it, really.

My dad on the other hand...
