Do you smoke regularly?

[The Monkey]

A lot of polls these days...

 

[The Dark Elf]

Yup, cutting down, quitting soon though, getting bored of it heh

 

[MadHatter]

I'm a sporadic smoker. I tend to have a cigarette at night, when I'm driving for a long time, drinking, or out camping. Other than those I don't smoke much.

I smoke rollups at home, cigars when im out.. I don't mind the smell of cigars, I just prefer rollups when at home/working.

Only 5 voters? Worst poll yet. ;(

I guess not a lot of people can apply to the poll.

I'm surprised the yes I smoke part isn't much bigger, lots of kids smoke these days.

 

[Gorgon]

No, I don't smoke,

Nope. Teen smoking is decreasing lately. Back in the day it was more common to see people under 18 smoking than it is now. Why, you might ask? Because they didn't know smoking was bad for you and weren't aware of the ramifications of smoking (Yes, I kid you not). When I say, "back in the day" I mean like the 50's and everything before. Wild West times were the same way. Although the deeper you go into history, the more of a luxury smoking becomes.

 

[Bullseye]

never did never will :E

 

[Someone]

eww icky nasty no. Never got into smoking at all.

 

[Maxi]

I'm a non-smoker.

 

[Pi Mu Rho]

I stopped. Today.

 

[Toffee]

I smoked when I was 15 and stopped after I turned 19. And it was really easy to quit because I was constantly feeling ill and dizzy after I smoked :/ .
but then I started eating a lot of tar sweeties afterwards..

 

[The Dark Elf]

I stopped. Today.

Seriously? heh congrats

*backs away from Pi for the next three weeks*

 

[we11er]

I used to smoke on and off, very occasionally. I could always stop when I wanted, so finally I did it for good. I feel sick now whenever I smell cigarette smoke.

 

[Bad^Hat]

Nah. I know plenty of frequent smokers around my age though.

 

[RoyaleWithCheese]

I quit 5 months ago!

 

[Asuka]

Wait.. in the other thread you said you had never taken non prescription drugs.

 

[The Monkey]

Tobacco doesn't count as drugs...I think.

 

[MadHatter]

Tobacco doesn't count as drugs...I think.

It can pass for a drug, but it's more of a stimulant than anything else.

 

[LAYP]

Don't smoke cigarettes, sometimes rarely have a joint. That is usually mixed with tobacco. Have no addiction to nicotine or a mental addiction to marijuana

 

[Reaktor4]

Nicotine is a drug.

 

[Ecthe|ioN]

I stopped. Today.

That's great

I quit nearly two months ago. The smartest thing I've ever done. It wasn't really that hard. The hardest thing was to decide to quit.

 

[LAYP]

I am suprised at how many people have smoked. Perhaps previous smokers and still smokers could tell me how you all started? It would be pretty intresting.

 

[Mac]

I don't smoke but there's this crazy lady i drive by every morning on my way to school and she has like 5 lit ciggerattes in her hand, one in between each finger, just walkin around. EVERY morning!

i think its her way of committing suicide or something. or maybe she's just a nut.

 

[Alec_85]

I've smoked 2 cigarettes ever. Stole them from my moms Hid outside in the bicycle shed Didn't get the smoke down into the lungs though.

 

[destrukt]

no.

6char

 

[zer0kewl]

[destrukt]

what's there to like*

no offense . . .

 

[Absinthe]

During the weekdays: 5-7 a day

During the weekdays where I walk my dog: 7-9 a day

Weekends: 1 and 1/2 - 2 packs

 

[Absinthe]

I like the taste.

I like the smoke.

It keeps me preoccupied.

It calms my nerves.

It goes great with a beer in the other hand.

.

Not the greatest of reasoning, seeing as how it's unhealthy and all. But I really couldn't give a shit.

 

[Alec_85]

So if you could get cigarettes in a can that smelled like shit (or like cigarettes) that you could spray on your body to numb your outer nerves, you'd buy it?

 

[Warbie]

Not anymore

It's suprising how little you'll miss smoking once you've given up.

After smoking for 12 years it become the norm. Now 6 months after giving up, the very idea of smoking a cigarette just seems bizarre (and rather grotty)

 

[Absinthe]

So if you could get cigarettes in a can that smelled like shit (or like cigarettes) that you could spray on your body to numb your outer nerves, you'd buy it?

1) They don't smell like shit. At least not to me.

2) It's lacking the smoke aspect. That shit's neato.

Typical of a smoker to think that. I thought that too when I was a smoker.

It does NOT taste good, and it does NOT calm your nerves. It gets rid of your craving, and you consider that a calming sensation. I've never been calmer than I am now, as a non-smoker.

Smoking is pretty much a waste of time, health and money. I know you will see that too, if you ever deside to quit smoking.

I feel sorry for the smokers.

Nicotine = Brainwashing

True and true.

Well, some smoke does taste good, actually, but not from cigs.. just expencive pipe tobacco and teh pot (but thats not what this is about)

I never was a heavy smoker, but I had to have them every day for a long time. I quit two months ago, and have not looked back. I do not crave it at all, and I can breathe so much better. I am getting into shape, working out almost every day. Lately I have been running two miles a day, and theres no way I could do that while smoking.
