Poll: Do you smoke...?

[Hitman 43]

No and I never will. I hate the God damn things.

 

[DrDeath3191]

No. I don't see the appeal for it myself.

 

[joelmarkel]

Socially. However, I am annoyed by those idiots who keep harassing me about the dangers of tobacco while I'm smoking my cigar. I really try to smoke right next to their faces.

No offense.. but I hate people like you. 'Social' smoking is the most pretentious thing you could possibly do, why not just go out and, I dunno, NOT smoke? As far as I see it, you don't kill yourself, and you still get to talk with mates.. win/win?

I smoke to feel a bit more free than people who restrict themselves. That and I love to piss the wrong goodies of the world.

Since addiction is another form of freedom taker, I'd rather smoke in a casual way. Therefore, I don't get addicted. Besides, I don't smoke all the time. Even if my friends smoke in front of me, I don't get pissed.

Besides, dying of smoking is long-term. I could stop wearing my helmet before doing some bicycle and hit or be hit by a car. I could drink multiple shots of different alchohol and suffer from alchohol poisoning. I could swim in a river and drown myself.

Point is, why the fuck should I restrain myself to live a boring life?

Sorry, I didn't realise smoking made your life less 'boring'.. Seeing as it'll likely turn you into a coughing, wheezing, generally unfit person, I'd have thought it'd actually make it MORE boring, seeing as you couldn't do any physical activity without getting knackered.

But I'm not here to lecture, I don't mind people smoking but only doing it because others areound you do gets on my nerves a little.

Just like pot people use any excuse to not exercise. I enjoy going out hiking, playing frisby golf etc. and enjoy a cig or two while I'm doing it. If you're a lazy person to begin with... don't smoke

No, though I have considered smoking a pipe for stylish reasons. I'm quite sure I won't though. I pride myself on my agility and I don't want to ruin that by smoking.

Cigarettes, no


I do go out with my dad and/or friends to smoke this once a week or every other week

This, my friend, is a hookah, or shisha, or water pipe. It uses water as a filter for the smoke. The tobacco also comes in several flavors.

And no, it's not used to smoke drugs.

[General Ken8]

No, and i doubt i ever will

 

[Booze Zombie]

No, smoking just isn't me.

Don't sterotype pot users.

 

[Casual Shinji]

I started smoking at age 14 for about 4 years. I tried it because all my friends smoked and I liked the mental sensation. I quit because the damn things were getting to expensive. That was 9 years ago, I can't imagine how expensive they are now.

I still think smoking is cool though. Yeah, I know, it's unhealthy and in the long run it can give you cancer. But in the end it's 'just a cigarrete' just as a glass of beer is 'just a glass of beer'. It's not the root of all evil or the Devil in disguise.

 

[CrashBang]

I've smoke a few times, trying to see the appeal in it and there isn't one, it tastes and smells horrid. I used to smoke weed quite a bit a few years ago but now I've gone straight edge

Will you disgust me!!!

Never done it and hope to never do it in my life.

Straight Edge, fats! I'm pure now! =]

 

[scoHish]

Tried a cig once. Wasn't big on it.

 

[Nemorov]

Yep... dirty dirty chain smoker I am.

 

[Insanum]

I don't smoke. Ive done shisha a few times, but its not smoking tobacco, And nowhere near the intake of a smoker either.

 

[Fritzvalt]

I smoke, and I love doing it. It's one of those little joys I look forward too most of the day. I take a puff and the rest of the world melts away.

To quote Futurama "I love smokin'."

 

[newuseforvintage]

I've considered it, but I don't as of right now, no.

Don't ever start. Tobacco ranks right up there with heroin for healthy drugs to be using. I'm all for legalizing pot and responsible drug use. Tobacco should've been destroyed completely years ago.

I love the way that everybody immediatly classifies heroin as being such a bad drug when in fact it is nowhere near, infact of all the 'hard' drugs it is probably the least harmful. Heroin itself decreases visible signs of ageing and, whilst highly addictive, the harmful side effects of it are low.
And when you think of the "debilitating social effects" there are almost none. A heroin addict on heroin is effectively returned to a base point.
A quite famous point here was an american doctor (his name escapes me right now) who was qouted as saying "of a heroin addict, an alcoholic or a meth addict I'd pick the heroin addict to perform surgery on me any day"

It is all the cutting agents that street level dealers (in other words scum) use to water down what was once a pure product that make it so bad.
As an interesting point everybody knows heroin withdrawals suck quite severe amounts of balls. How many people are aware that the withdrawals an alcoholic suffers can actually kill you.?

 

[Mozared]

Would like to give it a try, just to have done it once. But no, I'll never seriously start smoking.

 

[quiet_samurai]

Yes, but only socially and when I'm drinking. Smoking feels so good when you are wasted.

 

[Noamuth]

Tried it a few times when I was younger and an idiot ([sub]one may argue whether the latter has changed or not[/sub]), and didn't like it.

 

[Alpha Centauri]

Nah, when Im old and want to die, I'll start

 

[Harlemura]

Nope, don't intend to. It killed both my dad's mother and then his step mother after that.
And is smells all yucky.
