Haden Posted September 18, 2005 Share Posted September 18, 2005 Like others it makes no logical sense to me at all. The only benifits it seems to offer is to fit into a paticular social group. But I am really to apathetic to take up something that is going to harm me to gain some friends who share the habit. Makes no sense at all to me. At least cigars look cool though in a old fashioned british empire kind of way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guaglio Posted September 19, 2005 Share Posted September 19, 2005 If someone has a drink they aren't forcing anyone else to. If someone smokes in a public place, they practically are. Thats true, however when they become drunk and act like utter knobs even causing damage then that is far worse than inhaling smoke. Having said that i dont like somking either, tried it a few times and i cant stand it, making your breath reek something shocking. Its a waste of money and go out to a confined space and you'll have to wash your clothes the next day. Some of my friends smoke fine by me, but i make sure they try not to get me with the smoke.

gorrit Posted September 19, 2005 Share Posted September 19, 2005 Yeah, it's the PERFECT product to market, it's the only product for sale that when used in accordance to the manufacturers guidlines, will cause you harm. Uhm, unlike alcohol or almost every drug? I smoke occasionally, which means that if I go to a party(that week) I smoke about 10 cigarettes a week, if I don't, I smoke perhaps 2 or 3. Sure, I don't like obtrusive smokers, but I'll rather(even when I wasn't smoking at all, or when I'm not) sit near a bigtime smoker then a mean drunk. Rolling your own always gets you weird looks, it's rather fun Infact, a week ago I was sitting at a café with a friend, and I was rolling a cigarette and a girl from the table beside us comes up and asks me if she can taste some, I answer that it's just tobacco and then she looked a bit sad and said, oh, ok, and went back to her friends. I don't think I would dare come up and ask a complete stranger for weed (unless someone told me he/she was a dealer ;P) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackfox Posted September 24, 2005 Share Posted September 24, 2005 I think the thing with smoking is that the longer you do it, the longer is takes to come off. But as you are all pretty young, the urges should pass sooner rather than later. Just think of the money you are saving..thousands! And this what your preventing..

Jav_NE Posted September 24, 2005 Share Posted September 24, 2005 I smoke around 5-10 a day, i wont lie, i started because i was always around my girlfriend who smoked and when we got drunk id go 'give me one!' then i brought my own one day and it was all down hill. Im not addicted though, i could stop, in fact i go quite a few days when i just dont feel like one. Its only usually habit that urges me, like after eating or when drinking, or if someone else is smoking, its rude not to! I joke, but you get what i mean. I fucking hate people who piss and moan about it though, unless they have a baby near by or are pregnant, get a life, havnt you got anything better to do than get angry at someone for smoking at the bus stop or what have you. No-one who smokes ever blows it into peoples faces, when i didnt smoke i had no problem with it so i duno why people do. Its not the end of the world. If smokers follow the rules and do it where theyre allowed then theres no problem, i can only condone anyone telling someone to stop if its somewhere they shouldnt like on a bus or in a non smoking part of a restaurant etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
er-no Posted September 24, 2005 Share Posted September 24, 2005 In general. Smoking should be outright banned. It's a harming drugstick that does kill. If our pathetic government can condone so much of other substances et al... well, it's quite obvious the only reasons cigeretes aren't banned is the few billion of taxes the gov'ment pick up. They are the asses in all of this. Not the individual smokers. If Jav smoked around me, I wouldn't feel any different. Infact, I'm quite sure Jav smoking adds to his coolness? If that's possible? hehe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tendosgirlfriend Posted September 24, 2005 Share Posted September 24, 2005 I agree with banning smoking in public places, but they couldnt ever properly ban smoking as a whole because it would put so many huge companies out of business. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
