How awesome is it to smoke?

[QUOTE="MrGeezer"]

[QUOTE="ConManWithGun"]smoking is so awesome, I just love the idea of having yellow teeth, bad breath, and increased chances of cancer :)Rekunta

That stuff only happens if you abuse it.

That's a good laugh. Inhaling smoke deliberately into your lungs has nothing to do with abuse, it is outright unhealthy. One cigarette a day or ten, damage is still being done. My uncle died of lung cancer at 42 after a tumor ate through his spinal cord and paralyzed him from the nipples down, and he was a light smoker (three a day).

Are you a smoker by chance?

To the TC: I'm happy for you. If you are content with the possibility ofsounding like Stephen Hawkingat some point, then by all means knock yourself out.....I'm sure the chicks dig guys who sound like robots.

:lol:

You call three a day "light"?

Hey, BTW, I'm a light drinker. I only drink a six pack every night.

Marijuana - This is something worth smoking.

Yeah, a joint is worth going to jail, losing your job, and getting stuck with a criminal record.

Compared to five or six packs a day? Absolutely.......same with a six pack in comparison to very heavy drinkers.

I see. As long as someone else drinks more, then the homeless drunk bum who wanders up and down my street is a light drinker.

Whatever dude. Compared to someone who only smokes one cigarette a month (or not at all), three cigarettes a day is heavy. That's multiple doses of the drug on a daily basis. You think that's actually light smoking just because some people smoke more?

It's as awesome as hitting yourself with a club.

If you hit yourself with a club in front of your buddies, you WOULD go down as awsome.

Smoking does actually provide some benefits (such as smoking decreasing their chance of getting some kinds of cancer and brain diseases) but unfortunately these are far outweighed by the health negatives that result from consistant usage. There have been many positive tests of smoking decreasing the effects of Parkinson's Disease, Alzheimer's, Tourette's, and even some aspects of Schizophrenia as smoking increases the level of dopamine present in the brain which is at very low levels in many of these ailments.

Unfortunately, smoking is not a good cure for these due to the obvious health risks but they are working on isolating what elements in tobacco can be farmed out and delivered in a less lethal form so here's hoping they succeed.

Also smoke photographs very well and is very effective in photography and on film to convey mood and action.

Of course it is, how can it not be? Is someone who smokes one cigarette a month as opposed to four packs a day a relatively light smoker in comparison? You have to compare to others to determine what is considered heavy usage and what is not. How do you determine otherwise? It's all relative.

As to the bum walking up your street, that is a completely overly simplified example to try to prove your point. Try to include social, economic and other factors that play into your example, as drinking alone is not indicative of anything other than the amount that is consumed. Correlation is not necessarily causation.

Gotta love those Cancer Sticks.

......NOOOOOT

Nah, not my thing

I like not coughing all the time, or looking like Skeletor

Marijuana - This is something worth smoking. It doesn't have all the harmful chemicals from what cigarettes have, but unlike cigars it is inhaled. So you pretty much just get carbon monoxide with THC. The THC goes into the bloodstream and into your brain and unlocks the "rewards" portion of your brain and you feel really good about everything. You get that feeling you get when you find money or come home to a really good meal or something, but its on everything, even the mundane. Video games and movies become more of an art form. You think more intricately. Food tastes WAY better. And you can even ingest it without smoking it (if you have a vaporizor or eat it with cannibutter or something). Excellent way to wind down a night if you ask me.jealentus

So true, dude. Bud ftw.

I only do it sometimes when I am partyingWhicker89

The fact that you say "doing cigs" makes me think that you don't actually smoke.
