I'm perfect so I rock lol!

Too many people whine about giving up smoking though. If they started smoking in the first place, it's their own goddamn fault, and they shouldn't expect help in quitting. They should suffer for it. People with genuine forms of cancer should be treated instead.

As for alcohol, I don't agree with it. But if people do it, it's their life - not mine.

Give me one reason not to get pissed and act like a moron?

So you think that if people have the poor judgement, or the simple stupidity, to start smoking and then decide to better themselves and quit, they should recieve no help whatsoever? That they should be left to die if they get cancer? Well, you're a compassionate soul, I see.

That's a pretty stupid thing to say, really. Sure, people who've never smoked should be treated first - that I agree with. But if smokers who develop smoking-related diseases are not treated, a lot of people are going to die. :)

It's not really stupid. If someone gulped down poison, it's a similar thing. If you decide to smoke, you decide to kill yourself (despite the fact it wouldn't seem like that at first, people know the risks). So, you suggest that we put the fools who damage their body in front of those who are genuinely in danger?

Wow, you majorly hate me! You argue back to everything I say! :D

EDIT: Oh wait, I just saw that you said that smokers shouldn't be put in front. Oops. :p But they often are put in front, and that's what annoys me.

It just seems to me this same argument can be used against you. They say it's dumb because that's who they are and want to be blunt and to the point.

And I agree with Kishi.

Some drugs are pretty harmful, but pot isn't one of those, so I don't have a problem with it. People who are prudish enough to act superior just because they don't drink are just annoying, really. Not much more to it than that.

In case anyone was wondering...I don't condemn alchohol. :) I just don't drink, never will. See my previous posts for further info on this.

I don't really do any of the stuff listed int he original post, but I don't look down on others if they do. The only problem I have is when people abuse substances, and let them control their lives.

I'll admit I used to think less of people that get drunk. But I dont really think it's my fault. I can't help how I precieve people. And my brother gave alcoholism as a whole a really bad rep. to me. For the longest time I had a huge vendetta against any alcohol. I abhored it. And anyone that partook of it had to be some immature irrespectable something or other. I got over that part. I won't think less of people. But that doesn't mean I approve of their idea of fun. I can't have that kinda fun. I wouldn't if I could though. But alcohol just isn't for me. I hate the taste. I get sick before even getting a buzz. Even if it's only like 3%. I had a daiquiri where I could taste it. Took me forever to sip that crap down. Can't stand it. And even if I did like the taste. I just hate what it's done to some people's lives. I think people are idiots for indulging it. But to each their own. I'm more against smoking. People trying to give me lung cancer...
