Do you smoke?

[CloudDragon]

I started thinking about this when I met Kane over the weekend when I kept lighting up in his presence. Do any of you smoke cigarettes or even cigars? I've been slightly addicted to cigarettes for a couple months now and I'm about to start the process of quitting.

And if you do smoke either, what do you prefer to smoke? I prefer Marlboro Reds, though lately I've been smoking Marlboro Blend No. 27s.

Have you ever smoked a cigarette or cigar ever?

I don't personally, and never have. I've never really had the urge, but I hang round with smokers everyday.

I despise all the losers who go down to the back of the school to have a smoke. If I were to smoke, i'd be condoning that behaviour.

Im 16 anyway. Can't.

[Miriel]

Never. I hate being around people who smoke. Regardless of the health problems it causes, it just flat out stinks. It's like being around someone who has flatuence problems. I mean, man, you just don't wanna be around someone who stinks like that.

I gave up smoking two months ago. I still smoke pot but only green, solid is a no go now. Also don't start smoking, smoking pot works for me, but I don't want people to be harmed so please, don't start.

I don't smoke regularly at all, but sometimes I do at parties and such. I don't like smoking cigarettes because they taste very poorly, but I like things like cigars and waterpipes - especially waterpipes because they can really set a nice mood.

[blue phoenix]

nope never.

never had an urge + undesirable effects = why bother trying?

[licence]

I've tried it. Hated it. Don't do it.

[Alive-Cat]

Nope.

[BardTard]

I have before but I don't anymore.

I don't smoke, and I pretty much detest smoking. It's dangerous to health, and it annoys me if someone is so addicted to smoking that you can't have a long conversation with him/her when s/he needs a smoking break. It's also annoying in some parties or train stations when everyone is smoking. You'll have a terrible time, and your clothes will smell like garbage after that.

To add to that, I'd find it very hard being with a girlfriend who smokes. Not only is it annoying being around someone who stinks because of smoking, but imagine kissing her after she's been smoking.

Smoking really helps to calm my nerves, and that usually helps to prevent me freaking out. That's why I would smoke a lot whenever I went out for a night on the town or whatever. It eventually manifested into an addiction; I was soon smoking just about all the time, and if I was smoking then I was thinking about it. I never really thought of this as a bad thing—smoking made me feel great. I did water it down (claim I wasn't as into it as I really was) a lot, because I knew some people see it as a bad thing. I'm kind of insecure like that.

However, I started suffering from a lot of ill health (amongst other things), and I was strongly recommended to start the process of quitting. I have been smoke-free (as completely as I can) for a little over a month now. I'm afraid of the medication and other devices invented to aid in the quitting process, and I had to quit "cold turkey". It was very hard and it took me longer than necessary. But I didn't really do it alone; there were people kind enough to lend even the slightest of a motivation word, and that helped push me closer to my goal.



I feel as if I am no longer addicted. I haven't felt the need to smoke for some time now. I don't think I'll start to smoke heavily again while I'm still this young. Perhaps when I'm nearing 60—if smoking's legal and I'm alive—I'll get back into the swing of things. Just to, you know, get the ball rolling.

i cant stand being around smokers... its not like they are bad people or ne thing, i just would prefer to not have to inhale smoke while waiting for the bus / sitting in a bar / doing anything... at least the government is taking measures to minimise the places people can smoke (in australia at least), so hopefully less people will take up smoking, hence not doin damage to their bodies...

EDIT: no, i dont smoke...

[Kurui]

Never have, never will. The smell makes me ill. I have no problems with smokers, as long as they keep their second-hand smoke to themselves and don't try to make me do it
