Ok, first timer here (like, 5 mins ago) and I was just wondering, why do people enjoy this? More so, how the **** could you get addicted to it? Omg I swear, I had to take a shower because I could smell it on me, I washed my mouth out at least 20 times, I got the worst 'high'(more like... down) ever. My head hurt, I got dizzy, threw up. My mouth smelt like an ash try. I was warm on the inside, in a bad feeling way. Ugh. It was horrible. I just laid down in the shower for a few minutes trying to keep what was left of my dinner down.

Last time for me.... for ever. :down :(

It's easy to get addicted to anything, to be honest.

It just depends on what you have and the time in your life you try it.

I tried weed when I was like 15. I thought it was disgusting and didn't do anything to me so I never did it again until I was about 21. Then I felt something and decided to keep smoking it.

Cigarettes are bad for you but I got addicted to them at a young age. I've quit for long intervals but end up lighting one up every now and then...but it's my choice and I know the consequences. :o

i think i want to slowly kill myself. hense i smoke.
the thing is there are far more dangerous ways to slowly kill yourself but everyone lets it slide...

heart disease is the biggest killer in the western world and what normally contributes to it is having a bad diet, yet you don't see fast food joints being made illegal or fast food eaters have to eat outside.

the only thing with smoking that makes it so taboo is the whole second hand smoke thing where people who dont have a choice can still be affected, and that's fair enough.

but if i choose to smoke in moderation, i wouldn't want someone overweight idiot taking a moral high ground when their life expectancy is going to be a few decades lower than mine.

p.s.

this isn't a go at you, i'm just being general here.

the whole 'smoking is for losers' or 'smoking is for people that can't handle peer pressure' or 'smoking are killing themselves' thing is really starting to get on my nerves....

even though i smoke, i'm the healthiest one out of all my friends, i can run a marathon, do 40 mile treks, do one armed press ups on three fingers, hold my breath for over 2 minutes at a time etc... yet they still think they can poke their nose in my affairs, it's very irritating...

I don't understand the logic behind smoking. You're paying an assload of money...to die? I'm not taking a moral highroad with this, I guess I'm more concerned for smokers' lives than they are. The money they spend on cigs(as overpriced as they are) could go towards something way more useful, and less toxic too. And boy is the smell awful. I always seem to be downwind of a smoker.

FlameHead

I like being a smoker personally... though I hate the expense. I actually quit for almost 2 years until taking it up again a couple of months ago. Of course, when I quit ciggies, I ended up smokin' more weed so the money was still goin' out the window anyway.

I suggest that if you never smoked before to not do it. It's dumb, stinky and a waste of time... but, I love it!

and some smokers aren't killing themselves and blowing loads of money on ciggarettes that could be used for something else more useful.

what's ya point?

there have been far more crude generalisations made about smokers than overweight people and you know it's true. It's becoming more and more acceptable to stuff one's face than it is to smoke.

If stuffing one's face however could give other people a higher heart disease risk, then you'd see how quickly the world would turn on overweight people...

Smoking can be very enjoyable and very relaxing ... once your body acclimates to the taste and the effects, which actually doesn't take that long.

Cigarettes in particular can taste quite yummy after a meal, or with a cup of java.

I quit smoking quite a few years ago, but I can tell you that the one reason I smoked was because I enjoyed it. But alas, there were many more reasons to quit (not dying being chief amoung them). I figure that when I'm about 70 years old, I'll pick it back up. By then, I'll still be young enough to enjoy it, but too old for it to actually catch up to me before I take the dirt nap anyway.

It's common, but for some people I do recommend trying it, others, not. It depends on the person. I wouldn't throw around recommendations just for the sake of peer pressure, but there are some people that I think would really enjoy it in the same way that I do, and would be mature enough to handle walking away if they didn't like it.

Calvin

Well, I my parents never did, and I never got peer pressured into trying it. I was pretty well aware of what the effects were, and how easily one could get addicted, but when I was twenty I happened to be at a point in my life where I felt like trying it out. I liked the effect, both mentally and physically, so I'm sticking with it. Until I run out of money.

Seriously, death is going to come anyway, and there are a lot worse ways to die than from smoking. And that takes a pretty long time to happen anyway. If you don't die from doing something more dangerous than smoking before that, well, then smoking isn't your biggest problem.

I kind of fell into the same pitfall with smoking as you, lazur. Yeah, it can be very enjoyable and relaxing. I did it off and on for years and years with very little impact to my health. Hell, I kept on working out and being very physically active during that time. But after I got past 35, I started noticing much more impact to my health from it than I had in the past. My light bit of asthma got much worse. My breathing was more labored and I couldn't get up a flight of stairs without wheezing. I started getting sick more frequently. I was experiencing mild depression, high blood pressure and triglyceride levels that could kill a horse. And, I wasn't even a heavy smoker! I basically just got tired of all that and wanted my full health back. Imagine starting to see symptoms like that at 35 and wondernig what it would be like in ten years if it impacting me that much already at such a young age. I quit cold turkey eight months ago and haven't looked back. Within two months of quitting, all those problems disappeared for me and I'm refocused on my health more than ever. Not because I think I'll live forever, or even longer, but because I feel so much better in general and am able to enjoy life more. That trade-off alone has been better than the brief moments of pleasure that smoking can bring.

If you don't smoke or have never tried it, don't. You might get away with smoking with no negative impacts to your health when you're younger, but it WILL catch up with you. If people want to smoke, that's fine and I won't get on them for it like some ex-smokers can do (my wife still smokes, actually). But, be respectful of other people who don't want to be around it, and think real hard about where you want to be 30 years from now; hooked up to an oxygen tank 24/7 or hiking in the Sierras. Which one sounds better to you? :)

I read an interview with Christopher Walken where they asked him if he smokes and he said "I used to, but once I got past 30 it started making me feel sick so I quit."

It takes a hell of a lot of willpower to quit, no doubt about it. I haven't had the cravings for it after quitting at the level or frequency that many people get, but there are still days where a cigarette sounds better than anything in the world. All I have to do is remember the weekend I had in Vegas just before I quit, though. I went ape**** and smoked like a damn dragon while I was there, to the point that it made me absolutely sick as hell. I did that on purpose so that I'd have a negative, lasting memory of the last cigarette I've ever had. That strategy has worked well and is still working for me, eight months later. I also discovered in doing some reading that L-Glutamine, which I use as an immune system booster for my bodybuilding, has a residual side effect of reducing cravings from an addiction in people when they quit (be it smoking, drinking, binge eating, whatever), and that may have something to do with the minimalized cravings I've had compared to most people who quit.

But, yeah, I'm kina like Walken in that respect. I just got sick and tired of being sick and tired from the damn things. The pleasure they gave no longer outweighed the ill effects, so I quit.

What disconcerts me is when people say things like "god, I need a cigarette", and they're dead serious. They NEED a cigarette. Just to feel normal again. I like to feel normal all the time, unless something is actually wrong with me, without having to do anything.:). I guess I'm strange that way.

Everyone has their bad habits, of course, but cigarette smoke is insidious, and it doesn't confine itself or its effects to people who don't mind it.

Well, the best way to quit is for a girl. I've quit for girls before, even when I didn't want to quit, and as long as I was with the girl it wasn't that hard to resist. But since I still like it, as soon as the relationship was over, I started smoking again. Not so much because I was driven by the urge, but because I wanted to start up again. Though I might have been driven by the urge anyway had I not wanted to. But the point is, even though I didn't "want" to quit, I could still do it as long as it was for a chick. I'd imagine that if you were quitting for a chick, combined with wanting to quit, that you'd be able to do it. Just need to fall for a chick that hates smoking.

It's a stress thing. Most often, at least for myself and my friends, when we say "I need a cigarette," it's not driven by the fact that we haven't had a cigarette, it's driven by the fact that we're stressed out by other things, and we're used to that stress being lessened by a cigarette. It's a stress crutch, surely, but everybody has stress crutches, even if they're not aware of them. Smoking is pretty high on the unhealthy end of stress crutches, sure, but it's a very potent one as well. You get what you pay for (with your health as well as money, but the point still stands).

And quit complaining about the second hand smoke stuff, if you're inside, fine you have room to complain, but if you're outside, it's not hard at all to take a few steps back. I was surrounded by friends that smoked long before I started smoking, and it wasn't really that hard for me to avoid discomfort.


And on a similar note, props to the Butt Out episode of Southpark, for so PERFECTLY capturing the social stigma of smoking.

You're assuming we're in a place where I cam move to another location far away enough so the smoke won't get to me. I find myself walking behind people who are smoking and I get trapped in their tobacco cloud or in a public building where there are smokers; this being a building where I have business to attend and can't "just walk away". I agree, it would be dumb to stand in a circle of smokers and complain about it when you could just move but the fact is; cigarette smoke lingers.

That's my point, you should live an exciting enough life that you die from something else first. And even if that doesn't happen, I'll be able to change it around before asphyxiation happens if I have to. If I were in bad condition, then I'd worry, but I've seen people in a lot worse shape than me smoke for 50 years, then quit before it becomes a problem. So I'm not too worried.

Well, add this to the list of reasons why life sucks. I don't like running into idiots when I go about my daily activities, or getting squished by fat people on the bus or metro (both of which are always crowded), but there's really nothing I can do about that either. You have my sympathies. But I'm still gonna smoke. That's life, get over it or kill yourself.

Oh jesus, man. Those are the most disgusting cigarettes as far as I'm concerned. I LOVE smoking, but when I smoke those I want to puke. If you're outside the US, try Gauloises, they're strong, but smooth. I like Winston a lot more then Marlboro, though they hit a bit harder, so that might be too strong for you. Parliaments are kinda fun for firsttimers, they hit stronger than marlboro as well, but they're not as gross as Marlboro, and they feel "cleaner." Starting with Marlboro though.... blech. I probably wouldn't have ever smoked more than one cigarette either if I'd started with Marlboro.

Gross as well. Right now I"m smoking Pall Mall's just for money's sake, but for what you pay, they really aren't bad at all. Much better than Marlboro, that's for sure.

I don't understand the logic behind smoking. You're paying an assload of money...to die? I'm not taking a moral highroad with this, I guess I'm more concerned for smokers' lives than they are. The money they spend on cigs(as overpriced as they are) could go towards something way more useful, and less toxic too. And boy is the smell awful. I always seem to be downwind of a smoker.

Before I quit smokin' for almost 2 years, I was a die hard rollie fan for years so I've gotten quite good and quick at rollin' them. They almost just like tailer mades (which is what we call the store boughts).

Also, at the QT, you can always get 3 packs for $9, final price. Don't know if this is lucky for me or not as I know from my friends back home in NY and other in CA that smokes are about $5 or $6 a pack in those places.

I don't like the smell of the smoke in the air (though it often does remind me of concerts, which are always fun) or the way it makes your clothes smell. Everytime I'm near someone who has been smoking I wish they would move. It just smells bad. Now marijuana on the other hand I like. I like the smell, etc. It seems sort of cleaner or smoother than tobacco in a way I guess. But I'm not a big smoker of that either. Just at parties.

Lungs look pretty gross even when healthy. I'm never going to see my lungs, so I don't really care. I've known a LOT of people that have smoked for 60 years and are still living healthy ages in their old life. Mostly it's because they were pretty healthy in general with everything else (they were mostly europeans). And I live pretty healthily otherwise, so it's not really a concern to me. And it's not a dependence on cigs, I like them. It's a pleasure of life, like a glass of wine. Or a one night stand.

Pretty much the same, but with one less enjoyable little thing. And if you go to somewhere like France, where the lifestyle is a little healthier in general (not as much fast food, more walking around, etc), you'll see a lot of old smokers that look pretty damn vibrant quite frankly for their age. The fast food problem is a much more serious concern to american health than cigarettes are. It's just that cigarettes are an easier target to blame.

I didn't even take your location into account. I agree about the fast food. I think that's just as detremental to one's health as cigs. Fast food can be ingested in moderation which is good. I've never met a person who smokes in moderation; they're either hooked or not.

Well, I'm not there right now. I'm in Pittsburgh, hence the reference in my signature (love that strip). But while I was over there, cigarettes didn't seem to have the same affect on people that it does here. I think the abundance of walking has a lot to do with it. And I've definitely met moderate smokers. I know a lot of people that only smoke when they drink, and have no urge otherwise. As well as people that just smoke 4 or so a day regularly.

I don't like most cigarettes. The only kind I smoke are cloves. They are smooth and yummy. But I don't smoke very often. I agree that they are good sometimes when you are stressed, tired, or wound up. But I don't like to smoke too often. The pelasure isn't really worth the potential damage. My girlfriend smokes a couple a day on average and I wish she didn't. I love her more than anything and the idea of her ever getting lung cancer (or anything bad happening to her for that matter) is something i can't stand thinking about. But we are both pretty healthy otherwise.

Smoking is a strange thing: it kills a lot of people but at the same time there are those (and I know of quite a few) who have smoked for decades and have lived into healthy old age.

Cigarettes are extremely addictive. If you've never smoked, you probably will never understand the effect that nicotine has on you over time. I smoked occassionally* for a few years, then quit when I noticed that I was starting to take smoke breaks at work, not because I felt like it, but because I was responding to something new...some kind of deep, carnal urge.


*I smoked so seldom, that a single pack would easily last me for weeks. I had designated occasions where I'd allow myself a cigarette or two. I believed I'd never get hooked, and I never really did...I just finally realized that I would eventually break down if I didn't stop smoking completely, at some point.

You're right. When I started smoking a pack would last me a few weeks with ease. I think that I had one cigarette after school and that was it. Then as time went on I think the most I smoked through the years was like maybe 3/4 of a pack a day for a few months.

Now I only smoke two or three cigarettes a day. But on the weekend if I go out and drink I'll smoke more. Because for some reason drinking beer makes me want to smoke cigarettes. :(

But yeah, there's no better way to sit back and think about life than with the soothing sexy smoke of a cigarette. And always good to have a beverage of some kind. They just mix well.

i love people that say this because you know they are the people who will cower in the corner
well the only people i interact with that do stuff like that i usually know, and i definitely hit them when they do. they know how i feel about it. i've never been put in the situation where some random person blows smoke in my face, and continues to do so purposefuly after i ask em to stop, so i cant say how i'd react. but chances are i would. depends on the person, probably.

like you. you i would shoot in the face just for being so stupid, stupid.:o

Do it for G-Baby...

Man, what a crappy movie that was.
It wasn't that bad. At the very least G-Baby was amusing and it featured the classic Keanu *** drag.

Do any of your guys live in places where your can't smoke in public places? They recently passed that law here in Newfoundland which means we're all forced to smoke outside... which really isn't a bad thing. The non-smokers deserve it and it cuts down on the number of smokes I have. Plus, goin' to bars is much nicer without it being filled with smoke. You can wake up the next day and actually breath.

I did tour of a show once and the cast used to, before every show, do a little cheer to pump up for the performance. My buddy and I used to always say "Do it for G-Baby" in that cheer. Ahh, the memories.

I hated the movie though. I really did. I make fun of it all the time.

That would be instant death here in Pittsburgh. Even though I'm cutting down the drinking, I'll go into a bar and get a drink just so I can smoke inside away from the cold. A cigarette goes so well with a drink, it would really hurt the drinking experience for me.

Yeah, smokin' in increased ten fold for me when I'm drinking... unless of course you can't smoke in the bar. It's not really a bad thing when you think about it and now that I'm used to the fact that we always have to smoke outside, it's not so bad. Why subject any non-smokers to my dirty habit, ya know?

The bar owners here are all pissed off though, saying that buisness is down and such but, that's life buckos!

Heh. You're right. It would be instant death in the 'Burgh.

I don't understand why they did bars in certain places. A smoker who is drinking alcohol NEEDS to light a cigarette. Because whenever I consume alcohol I fiend for a cigarette two fold. :o

I get pissed off as it is that I have to go outside and smoke at work. :mad:

You'd be pissed off a lot here then.

My only question is when are people gonna start complaining about havin' people smokin' NEXT to buildings. The next law will be that you have to be 50 feet away from any door so that people dont walk into your smoke clouds. Sheesh.

Me.

Each time I was tempted to light up, I'd threaten to cut off one of my fingers.

If it worked for me, it should work for you.

Just masturbate whenever you feel like you need a smoke. Even in public. If someone looks at you funny, or tries to arrest you, just tell them you're trying to quit smoking. They'll understand.

Sorry to hear that about your Mother, but, I'm gonna give it my best shot, I actually stopped last year for around 6 months, but, being the 'idiot' that I am I started again, so I'm more determined this time.

Ok, first timer here (like, 5 mins ago) and I was just wondering, why do people enjoy this? More so, how the **** could you get addicted to it? Omg I swear, I had to take a shower because I could smell it on me, I washed my mouth out at least 20 times, I got the worst 'high'(more like... down) ever. My head hurt, I got dizzy, threw up. My mouth smelt like an ash try. I was warm on the inside, in a bad feeling way. Ugh. It was horrible. I just laid down in the shower for a few minutes trying to keep what was left of my dinner down.

Last time for me.... for ever. :down :(

Thats good,smokers are sad people.Abusing their bodies like that,smoking gives you bad breath,yellow teeth,throat and/or lung cancer,and its just not cool.Just stay to yourself,youll live longer,and save money.A single pack of cigarettes costs around 10 US Dollars.

A historal note,Cigarettes are actually being used wrong.They were not originally ment to be 'smoked' in their current method.

Where the HELL do you live? :confused:

I get a pack of smokes for like 3.50

And people who smoke aren't sad people. If you've never had a cigarette before your ignorance is really shining through. :o
