smoke cigs everyday of my life

[QUOTE="MAILER_DAEMON"][QUOTE="NearTheEnd"] Yeah, that's the point. Fortier

What's the big deal with cigarettes? Everyone hates them yet I don't see a problem with them. They are stress relieving, tasty, enjoyable and provide something to do. Besides the fact that they smell nice, they are also cool. Who else here smokes and enjoys it throughly? non_insane

Different strokes for different folks. Hell, I know several potheads who complain about the smell of tobacco and don't even realize that reeking of marijuana smells just as bad. I know some people who regularly put on so much perfume that I have to gag whenever I get within 10 feet of them. Some people like the smell and flavor of tobacco, some people don't.

[QUOTE="NearTheEnd"][QUOTE="MAILER_DAEMON"]How exactly does smoking make you a better person and less of a prick than the people you just claimed you want to kill?MAILER_DAEMON

Yeah, **** 'em. They saw me smoking. If they were so concerned about their health, then they shouldn't have walked over to me and said "hi".

If I am allowed to kill myself with tobacco smoke, then nonsmokers are allowed to kill THEMSELVES by choosing to breathe in my secondhand smoke.

I also like smoking for one major reason. It gives me something to do whenI am bored. And it gives me a reason to relieve stress.

I mean, suppose I'm at work and I have a BAD freaking day. My day SUCKS, I hate my life, and then I get the opportunity to take a five minute break. So what am I gonna do with that five minute break?

A smoker will take five minutes to smoke a cigarette. He'll then go back to work feeling a tiny bit better, but not much. But at least he got a cigarette. At least he got an actual EXCUSE to stop working in order to get a cigarette.

I tried quitting once before. Then it got time for my smoke break. I then went to the break area, sat there for five minutes staring at the wall, then I went to work not feeling one bit better than I felt before I took my break. It was just...stupid. At least smoking actually gave me something to DO on my break. It gave me a REASON to take a break in the first place. But if I'm just gonna stand there looking at a wall until my five minutes are up, then I'd might as well just work through my break.

Yeah, weed smells great if you smoke weed all the time. Just like tobacco smokers on't think that tobacco stench reeks.

But I don't smoke weed. And yeah, it stinks.

Hi_Again

Those are harsh words, coming from an illegal drug user.

Maybe next I'll listen to a crack dealer's lecture about the value of getting a good education.

Those are harsh words, coming from an illegal drug user. MrGeezer

[QUOTE="kingdre"][QUOTE="Hi_Again"] Smoking makes you look cool when you're normally not cool. See, some people need cigarettes. Not for a buzz or to relax, but because they have nothing else to lean on.Hi_Again

[QUOTE="MrGeezer"]Those are harsh words, coming from an illegal drug user. Hi_Again

Are you gonna bail me out of jail if I get caught smoking weed?

Are you gonna pay my legal fees?

If I decide to avoid the drug TRADE by growing my own plants, are you gonna defend me when my house catches on fire and the fire department discovers my plants while putting out the fire, and I am facing 20 years on trafficking charges simply because I deccided to avoid drug DEALING by keeping two plants in a pot?

Foir all the talk that marijuana users make about how they are concerned about people's well-being, they're mostly just concerned about IDEOLOGY. They don't give a flying **** about PEOPLE. Take EVERY person who you've ever known who encouraged you to smoke weed. How many of those people are actually gonna post bail for me if I get arrested for carrying weed? One? Zero? We're talking about a CRIMINAL enterprise here, and I think we KNOW just how much compassion these kinds of people have. Has YOUR drug dealer ever bailed you out of jail after you got caught with his p[roduct? No? Well that's a HUGE surprise to me. :roll:

I smoke pot, but not cigs. You get addicted to cigs and have a risk of getting lung cancer. With weed the worst that could happen is you get fat from having the munchies too much.I_pWnzz_YoU

That's not even close to the worst that could happen, but it's no secret that drug users (I'm talking about ALL drugs, including alcohol, tobacco, and caffeine) tend to downplay THEIR chosen drug's dangers when recommending that drug to other people.

[QUOTE="Luncbox1"]My big problem with them: my dad is dead because of them.Hi_Again

Whatever, dude. My dad is probably gonna be dead within the next ten years too. And if it's not as a result of smoking, it's gonna be as a result of something else.

PEOPLE DIE.

Oh yeah, I hate tobacco because they made me see my dad die. I am SUPPOSED to see my dad die. I am SUPPOSED to attend my dad's funeral. My dad is NOT supposed to attend MY funeral. Yes, it will be SAD when I bury my dad, but he was ALWAYS gonna die. And unless something were to go horribly wrong, it is ALWAYS the father who is supposed to get buried by the son. Whether he dies because of tobacco, lack of exercise, diabetes, too much great-tasting food, etc is of no concern to me. My only concern is that he led the life that he wanted. That's it. Some of you guys might differ in opinion, but I think I'd find it a little bit morally reprehensible to use my father's death as a tool to launch a personal agenda against something that I don't like. My father will NEVER be a "victim" of alcohol or tobacco. He's done both, and more. Some of thse things he has quit, some of them he hasn't. But at every step of the way, that was HIS CHOICE. That was how HE chose to live. And I'd have to be a pretty big dirtbag to pick apart my father's life in order to blame my being fatherless on something that I don't like.

Now, my perspective doesn't have anything to do with anyone else's, but that's where I stand. No one forced alcohol or tobacco on him. Using those substances was HIS decision. And if either of those things helped to make him feel just a little bit better before he died, then my opinion is that I shoulkd simply grow a pair and realize that that was how HE chose to die.
