Do you smoke?

[Tokitoki]

Ive smoked one cigarette, didn't find it enjoyable and havent smoked since.

Don't touch cigars. The smell is too strong, I just don't like smelling like that.

Weed I smoke 5 times a week maybe? Only do it at night after Ive done any homework I have and just hang out with my friends. Usually we just watch TV or a movie and play a few rounds of super smash brothers. I never do it when I have classes to go to, I don't even do it during the day at all; strictly a relaxing in my room with my friends kind of thing.

Everyone of my uncles smoke, my aunts smoke, my uncle and aunt double as my boss and they smoke at work, they smoke when they come over my house, my mother and father smoke, my grandmother smokes.

Thank god that it stopped at that generation. None of my cousins or sisters smoke, we all think it's the most disgusting thing.

It's kind of funny, because what exactly made smoking less prevalent among this generation? We know the media had nothing to do with it because all the anti-smoking ads are plain ridiculous... I'd smoke just out of spite for them. We know peer pressure had nothing to do with it, since most cases of peer pressure would involve coaxing someone to smoke with relatively little pressure not to smoke. We know parental influence has nothing to do with it, since like wafik's family, a lot mine smoked, too, but I don't. The same can be said for many families. So one has to wonder what the driving influence really is. Perhaps just better education, and people are making more informed decisions for themselves, and many coincidentally come up with the notion to not smoke?

Smoking is by no means uncommon, of course, but certainly less glamorized than it was in the past couple generations. In another couple generations, the tobacco companies will probably have moved on to the fast food industry.

smoked a total of 10 tops in my life, never finished a cigarette to myself and likely the bulk of tobacco consumed was broken up as filler in 'left handed ciarettes' (at work dont mind me)

cigarettes make me sick and the smell of them on other people remind me of my nana and i never respected her and thought she smelled disgusting

that being said, whatsisface in casablanca looked pretty cool smoking haha, but i dunno i like being a non smoker

what's lame though is those tards that *COUGH* *COUGH* significantly near smokers, i think that's totally juvenile (and i stopped doing that at age 16 haha)


oh.

quick story, once at an old job wjile eating outside at one of the picnic tables for the staff, a smoker came and joined us and shortly after lit up, i cant remember if we asked them to smoke or not but myself and a friend got up and left to eat elsewhere and the smoker was offended and mocked us

i didn't go to where she sat and promptly crap in her sandwich, but she effectively did so in mine for all she improved its taste

Only really smoke at certain place and events.

When I grill I’ll smoke. Also when I’m at a wedding I’ll smoke also.

Also I smoke non stop when I’m driving on the high way (If you have ever been in NJ you know what I mean) to keep me from killing some one in rode rage

And before or during anything I do stupid.

Been trying to quit, had one about 10 minutes ago and I can say it's going great!

Anyone try those black cigarettes? I'd probably smoke those just because they look cooler.

DJARUM? They're ok, though there is the small problem of them containing fiber glass...

[Tormentormike]

Yup, those are the ones. Deffinately want to try those!

Is fiberglass not good for you?

[Tormentormike]

Oh yeah, isn't fiber glass in the filters of cigarettes anyways?

Cigarettes mess you up, no denying it but the fiber glass in DJARUMs rips up your lungs on top of all the normal bad stuff.

[Tormentormike]

Is there some source for what you're saying? I looked at a few articles just now to compare the tar/nicotine levels to Marlboro Menthol Lights and the sites say they're about the same? No mention of any fiber glass, just that taste and it numbs the throat and gag reflexes. Girlfriend smoking these go!

Djarum Blacks are clove cigarettes.

Really wouldn't inhale them, they're meant to be puffed.

Good friend of mine in college used to smoke them a lot, and on one occasion he accidentally inhaled a drag. Thought he was gonna die, he was coughing so badly and turning so red.

Definitely not good for your lungs, but smell really good to all the people around you, especially compared to normal cancer sticks.

[Charismatic]

fuck smoking, there is no point.

[Lavik]

Seriously though
smoking pot with people who aren't idiots or alone is the most relaxing/peaceful thing you can imagine
very comfortable?

While I've never smoked a cigarette (no intent either), I don't mind if people around me do. It's just when they do shit like blowing their smoke in my direction/face that I get pissed off at them, and will ask them to take it to somewhere else. I actually love the smell of tobacco... before it's burned, after that, it stinks. Both my parents, my brother, and one of my sisters smoke, I just choose not to. Honestly, I don't think I've even ever considered taking it up, I see absolutely no point to it.

Cigars never done, no intent there either. My roommate occasionally smokes them, and they stink to high heaven. Granted, he smokes some really lousy ones, I'm sure, but still, not my cup of tea.

Done weed a few times, but again, that's something I can (and have) easily turn down if I really don't feel like doing it. I admit I do enjoy it from time to time, but it's been almost 2 years since I last did it.

[Exoduso]

That. No, it doesn't make you look cool, it makes you look like the social delinquent who THINKS he needs a cigarette to be cool.

not my fault i've been playing sports all my life, kind of hard to smoke and then run a couple miles the next day!

edit: oh, let the flaming begin, right.

[Sigi]

Can't smoke unless I want to commit suicide. I'm violently allergic to commercial cigarette tobacco.
Pot? I don't smoke that either. If it were legal, I might try it.. but nahhh.

[Vail]

to address the OP: I don't think ANYONE likes their first cigarette, I know I didn't I coughed and gagged and accually came to tears from my first cigarette, however that didn't stop me from starting smoking at age 15.

I've "quit" but I can still tolerate being around and the idea of smoking. I've had 1 cigarette in the last 4 months and it was with my brothers as we talked about something private between us.

Cigarettes, yes. It's easy for me to handle the nicotine withdrawal, but the insanely hard part in quitting is breaking the habit of smoking. Whenever I try to quit I end up missing the act of smoking, versus the inhaling of it. From what I've read, smoking causes an oral fixation, and that's the real killer to break. I started smoking, and have kept smoking because I enjoy the taste of tobacco smoke (I think I'm the only one ever).

this is very true: the oral fixation is a pain, I constantly stick my hands near my mouth including chewing on my nails and cuticle. Even flossing a large number of times a day (3-10 times)

cloves

omg I haven't had one in years... I first had one when I went to Ashland Oregon for the shakespeare festival, while I was in high school. A fellow student gave me my first, the unique taste and texture was amazing. however I stopped smoking them when they told me they take off nearly double the years off your life then normal cigarettes. It's a damn same cause I really did enjoy them.

As for cigars those things confuse me, it's like I can't just take in air/smoke into my mouth since smokeing it's like I naturally take the smoke straight into my lungs. I've tried cigars but the constant restraint against inhaling takes away what enjoyment I'd have with them. That and the fact my since of taste is messed up from an accident
