//STATUTORY WARNING : CIGARETTE SMOKING IS INJURIOUS TO HEALTH
Did you know they put huge warning stickers on every sigaret package?
Huge stickers telling things like "Roken is dodelijk" (=Smoking is deadly) .
I was more saddned by the fact that I'm broke then the fact that I don't smoke :( .Quote:

Used to smoke. To give up smoking, tried chewing readymade tobacco ("Balwan chap Khaini"). Got addictive to it :) .

How come? :confused: You see, I've determine to the task for the last 4 years, and every night I quit successfully. :cool: Shouldn't I be appriciated? :rolleyes: Besides, I know that smoking is not a good thing and it should be exterminated, so I've stepped forward for this process, I'm eliminating the cigs from this planet, by smoking as many as I could, so that no more cig left on earth :D :thumb:Quote:

Of course, crowds might be stressing for some unaccustomed people, and when you're stressed, you tend to look for help with something familiar to you. But smokers are not kind to non-smokers around them, who turn angry toward smokers, who get more stressed and smoke more, and that's a vicious circle. The addiction to cigarettes is not like other addictions which are not bothering other people like the addiction to codeguru.
Well, so far I'm not just suprized, but almost shocked to see that ratio of 3 : 1 for no-smockers. That's great people. :thumb:
Yes I am, At work I smoke cigs, and at home my pipe
I wish you guys luck in kicking the habit :wave: .
Excellent, the fewer programmers around due to lung-cancer, the less competition out there...
/me evil... }:-)
You can also die of lung-cancer by just smoking passive... :sick:Quote:

Don't drink, don't do drugs, don't gamble, don't speed in traffic... Apart from the smoking I'm a good boy. :D
I smoke sigarettes and rolling tobacco, I use snus and I drink both beer and stronger liquor (sometimes too much, sometimes even more) ... and to you, YourSurrogateGod: "We might not be around for much longer, but our bugs will." ;)

Heh... that doesn't seem to work in Germany. People smoke there all the time and the average life-span is around high-seventies... odd.Quote:

just from my experience, just don't take any replacement for your addiction, you want to quit and defeat your addiction, not replacing it with something else.. ;)
I don' smoke but I'm interesetd!:lol:
Was never a heavy smoker. It usually took me 4 to 5 days to get through a pack of twenties. I think the health risk is insignificant in such quantities. I quit because of the smell.You stink when you come back from the smoking room. I got fed up of the complaints from the ladies. There is no limit to what we will do to please the ladies :rolleyes:Quote:

I do smoke. I used to drink and do some drugs, but I quit those about a year ago. Alot of my friends still do drugs, and they are complete burnouts, it takes them like 2 minutes to say hello, I look at them and I'm very glad I quit the drugs. I mean yea they were fun at first, but after a while got really boring. I quit drinking because I got really really really trahsed, and at about 2 a.m. I got called down to the police station in a different county, and was being charged with breaking and entering, but the cop couldn't understand me because I was still too drunk. The next day, I had the worst hangover, so I decided not to drink anymore. But I have no problem with drinking beer in moderation. I would just drink vodka and other hard liquors.
chemical drugs are totally awful...Quote:

I also smoke sigarettes but controlling myselft not exceeding 5 cigs per day. but on weekend ( sunday ) i usually not smoke because my parents did not know about that.
Yea I never did stuff like acid or anything, although I really could of, many times. I used to just smoke some pot and watch cartoons, they always would want to go to the mall or something, I'm like the mall sucks, I'll just stay here and watch some smurfs.Quote:

I commend those who are trying to quit. Keep it up! :)
I dont, and I never will plus I hate those ppl who smoke in public places without any regard to other ppl. :mad:
Oh yeah, that is so unpleasant.Quote:

Have you paid attention to the labels on the cigarettes pack?Quote:

NO!
I wouldn't mind if that law was approved.Quote:

I dislike it most when I see mothers smoking away with their toddlers in tow... :sick:
Ditto for fathers, and people doing this in bus stops and train stations.
What I really dislike is people that smoke during dinner or lunch.
I once had dinner in a restaurant and someone on the table next to mine was smoking a cigarette after almost every single course! :mad: How the hell can you enjoy a nice dinner while you are smoking, I bet she didn't taste a thing of the food.
I dislike it when an attractive girl / lady smokes a cigarrette. I don't know how it works but to me the cigarrette makes her instantly unattractive!
