Smokers, don't worry

I do smoke and like I said it doesn't kill it just raises risk factors. But some of you are just being foolish, and I'm talking about the people who are on Smoking is O.K. Side. You should never, ever, ever Smoke around people who aren't ok with it. Iso, I would never smoke in your car, I don't smoke in anybodies car unless that person themself smokes in there car. I do not smoke around others who wish for me not to smoke. the only exception to this rule is when I go to a bar. if you don't want someone to smoke around you in a bar, go to a non smoking bar period. the only 2 indoor places I currently smoke are at teh bar, and at home. I do consider myself a courtious smoker.

And Mish, sorry to hear about your chronic bronchitis I have a cousin with the same thing (at least I think it's the same thing o.O). which is why I don't smoke around anyone unless they smoke... or follow me out on a smoke break. I remember my Dad yelled at my aunt till his voice was gone when he found out she smoked while pregnant.
 
im my opinion ppl who smoke in the middle of a party and fill the dance floor with that icky smeely shit are asses. I dont care if you smoke in your own time, bu damn it, dont ruin a party with your stupid shit. My clothes end up smelling bad and i honeslty dont see why people like to smoke. It smells really bad and makes your breath smell horrible
 
Wow, sounds like Shaunessy's really hooked on cigarettes, really. No one else would so blindly ignore the health risks, just because they're in great shape. Seriously, using the "It hasn't happened to me, so it isn't true!" arguement is pretty slick. Will a cigarette or two per day kill you? Highly unlikely. Could it become a problem? A decent chance later on if you continue. But overlooking the fact that people are told by doctors that they need to stop is just hilarious.

You're in the minority, fellah. If people want public places to not allow smoking, and they don't, they go somewhere else. Lost Business, sure. But when you're losing so many people because some guy can't step out side to smoke, it hurts your potential gains. Picket if you want, you're not going to bring in the lost revenue.

A nonsmoker generally doesn't want to be around a smoker because of the smell, and if you're athsmatic(or have any other kind of lung-related problems,) it can be a problem to your health. Smoking isn't a necessity of life, nor do people particularly enjoy being around smokers. Will it be banned completely? Ofcourse not. It's good tax money. But it will be restricted.


Ontop of the health-related problems caused by smoking. Yes, caused, despite how much you believe it doesn't do anything, it can do damage to electronics. And if you ever try to sell your house, good luck getting rid of it when the carpet smells like cigarettes.

he also said that smoking on a Cigar was like sucking a big black dick D:
 
I have nothing against smokers and I am not on an anti-smoking campaign. I lived in a house with extreme secondhand smoke (6 smokers who smoked inside) for 7+ years and never suffered a side effect. It affects different people differently, this I agree. Being around smokers doesnt bother me, and I don't even particularly dislike the smell, as it reminds me of people I love very much.

But I am educated about it. That's all I ask of others. If you choose to smoke after knowing the risks and acknowleging them, then that is your descision. I choose to eat a cheezeburger knowing it clogs my arteries. I choose to play this game instead of an outdoor activity. I choose to drink soda more often than I should. These are choices that I make consciously, knowing they are detrimental to my health but are activities I enjoy. If smoking is one of those activities for you, then that is what it is. But don't be ignorant. Know the facts and make your choice. Don't pretend they aren't there.

Slight edit: Shaun you wouldnt be able to tell if your car or home smelled like an ash tray because YOU smell like an ashtray and are constantly surrounded by that smell. Your nose stopped caring about it long ago.
 
Outdoor activity is for losers with no money.
 
Listen guys, the way I look at it I've been bald, toothless, dumb, and in diapers once in my life, why the hell would I want to live to see that again?

... I'm just curious, how does one die from Diarrhea... on second thought no don't answer that.

I didn't read all of this, so if someone beat me to it then just disragard this. But Diarrhea can kill because your not only losing your waste but your losing fluids which can dehydrate. Also it shows your body isn't digesting right which means that your pooing out all the important nutrients that isn't being digestied like its supposed too.

I think theres a little more to it but this is all I can remember from what I was told long ago.
 
Yeh, I already mentioned fluid loss. XD

And yeah, Chronic Bronchitis (A kindof COPD) is pretty much caused solely by smoking/secondhand smoke. So I can safely say it's my parents' faults.
 
Yeah I figured someone mentioned it, but it was getting too late for me to read all that info so I just took a chance and typed my response.

P.S Just got my 500th post /dances.
 
Funny story actually, I got a subscription to Playboy 2 years ago which I never ordered...

Though now I have no idea where they are except for that one which is under my dad's night table.
