Do you smoke?

It really pisses me off that smoking is so bad for you, because I love doing it. It is one of the most enjoyable activities in this universe. And probably any universe, but I can't say that with any degree of certainty. That said, Marlboro Lights/Marlboro Blend 27s are pretty good, but Dunhills are my favorite. They're kind of expensive so I use Marlboro's for standard use and Dunhills for special occasions.

One thing that pisses me off about smoking are people who don't smoke. "I've never smoked and I never will blah blah" Yeah? Great, I don't f---ing care. If I choose to, it's because I want to. Everyone knows that smoking is bad for you. EVERYONE. So what's it to you if I decide to do it? It really pisses me off when I go the necessary 20 feet away from the front door at work (damn California laws) and people go out of their way to give me a hard time about smoking.

Oh, and cigars I don't really care for. Weed however is pretty good, but not for every day use.

Good thing nobody has done that in this thread yet!

It's their opinion, Thizzle, I've never tried having sexual intercourse with an animal but I know I dislike it. You're quickly becoming one of my least favourite members with your comments.

As for the topic:

Yes, I smoke cigarettes on a daily basis, usually only one or two. I wouldn't say it's a full blown addiction, but I definitely notice when I've gone a day without one. I usually find myself buying Du Maurier or Peter Jacksons, or buying a whole lot of Native Reserve smokes. I plan to stop smoking or at least cut down once school starts up again.

As for cigars, I love them. I find the taste pleasing and the smoke relaxing, I love Green Apple and Smooth Chocolate flavoured cigars the most. If I'm going for name brands, I take Colts. I find myself smoking the entire pack of them all too fast if I have the money to buy one, so I've been trying to stretch the life of the packs out as far as possible.

I also smoke marijuana at an erratic rate, ranging from several times a week to once every month or so. It is by far my favourite thing to smoke and I do not see myself quitting in the immediate future, but I definitely see myself cutting down once school starts. (as I do with cigarettes).

Another item in which I occassionally find myself lighting up are morphine pills. I have only smoked morphine about five times, each time about 2 to 3 weeks apart from eachother to ensure I do not get addicted. The way that it dims my surroundings (side effect of pupils shrinking) and makes everything feel soft and different, as well as relieves any pain I am feeling and makes me feel on top of the world. I do not see myself quitting morphine in the immediate future.

Those are all the things that I have smoked (so far), I plan to experiment more and explore my boundaries. I plan to try out Salvia pretty soon.

I love you to!

That's kind of a pet peeve of mine too. People that judge other smokers based only on health. As you said, everyone knows it's bad for you. Kids first learning to talk probably know how bad it is for you, anyway advertisements do a pretty good job of spreading the ill effects of smoking.

Cigars I've never really cared for much, but I'll have the occasional one. And I'll admit to smoking weed, but definitely not every day or even that much.

EDIT:
To Jojo: Yeah Kane's a pretty cool guy. I'm trying to get my friend to upload this video he has of Kane and I rocking out to Queens of the Stone Age.

To Amanda: Marlboro Reds are my favorite.

To Jowy: All the best times to smoke right there.

The Comercials and Warning Labels on Cigarettes do not warn that if you smoke you will make yourself a social outcast from those who do not smoke.

Most of the people in this thread who dont smoke have stated that they dont like being around smokers and some even that they don't like to kiss smokers.

Perhaps they should show people who have no friends and who offer no apeal to the oposite sex on these Comercials and Warnings.

I smoke, but I try to control it. I dont smoke a pack a day, I dont even smoke every day. Its not an addiction, its a habit.

I do occasionally.... I really hate it but my will-power is in minus figures. I'll quit then start smoking a month later. :(

Back in March I started smoking. Back in March I stopped smoking. For about two weeks, almost straight and everyday, I smoked around two or three times a day. Mostly out of boredom and wanting to see what all the fuss was about. I tried one ciger but didn't make it further than a single puff, the things are horrid. So yeah, that's my story about smoking. Two weeks back in March I was a smoker.

I tell you what though, I had these cigarettes that tasted exactly as Christmas would. If I were to go back to smoking, it would be those things at a non-stop pace. Delicious! Mm..

Not that it means much, but I did quit cold turkey. It makes for a nice little story when you omit the length of time I smoked. People are pretty impressed by it.

My brother smokes pot ive seen him smoke all the time on the porch even though he convinced my parents he stopped.:mad2:

His smoking problem was slowly but now its clear that its screwing up his life which sucks since this is his senior year.Slowly his smoking problem is also sucking the life out of my family or maybe its his selfishness.:(

Thats why i will never smoke it hurts the ones you love. howver i do have some friends that smoke some of the time at least its not srewing with their lives.:cry:

My father gave my brother Asthma from his second-hand smoke, so no.

I don't feel like paying someone to kill me, so I don't smoke.

Well said, Squishy. I agree.

Wow, I knew i shouldn't have clicked this. "ARGH SMOKE SUCKS KILL DEATH CANCER!" versus "GRAH CIGARETTE LOVE NICOTINE YUM YUM SMOKE!"

Anyway, as annoying as Thizzle is, he's got a point regarding the whole mass of it. As terrible an omen as smoking has become lately, you can't really knock something until you've tried it. you can say, I wouldn't like to try it, or "i'd Prefer not to, given the risks associated with tobacco/marijuana's use" but you Cannot say that you dislike it, or that it is not worth it, unless you have actually experienced the effects yourself. so, the self riteousness is really unfounded.

Frankly, If you haven't smoked, you have no business cracking on those who do. You want to look at new racism, look no further than the number of no smoking signs in the average city block. If you smoke, you are a second class citizen.

I don't with any sort of regularity. About 5 times when i've been completely smurfed out of my tree drunk I've smoked cigars for a laugh, but that's it. I don't have any urge or desire to do it normally, but I don't care if other people want to as long as they don't blow it near me.
