    Re: Do you smoke?

    My aunt gave me a cigarette to smoke when I was about 6 years old. I can't stand it, even the smell gives me a headache.

    Re: Do you smoke?

    I've been second hand smoking all my life. My mother and grandmother go through a pack or more a day, and I have a tolerance to the smell and sympathy to those who smoke. Never can say I'll smoke myself, seeing as I'm too cheap/poor to have an addiction like that - not to mention I enjoy the fact that I can do mild physical activity without hacking up a lung. It's probably the cost of cigarettes that keeps me away from them more than anything. I still don't know exactly how much a week they put away into the habit. It's a shame our medical coverage won't pay for assistance (pills/gum/patches) to help them drop the addiction.

    Re: Do you smoke?

    I used to second hand smoke when I was younger, then I made my dad sit outside if he wanted to light a cig.

    I smoke when I'm drunk. I know many others like me. This should be an option.

    I've now smoked with my aunt and my parents' friend that Ive known all my life. It's funny because they both talk about hiding it from us (the kids). The other day my grandfather came outside and said it smelled like someone was burning rope haha.

    It also helps you go to sleep. Anyone that's smoke for quite a while and is in the processing of quitting (myself), can tell you that it really really sucks trying to go to sleep without one.

    Re: Do you smoke?

    I will forever hate cigarettes because my best friend would smoke so fucking god damned slow and ask me to go outside and talk with him while he smoked. He was a friend so I was obligated to, but it fucked me over so many times in FFXI(and FFXI is my life). Nobody wants to wait for your ass in a party while you take a mother fucking twenty minute smoke break.

    We're not friends anymore, so that's cool.

    And fuck weed. Everyone I know who started smoking weed turned into a fucking loser. My step-brother is 19 and he doesn't have a job and he sits at home and smokes all day. He was the person I used to fucking look up to. All my friends have turned into fucking retards. Fuck that fucking shit.

    Sorry about all the fuckings, but that's how smoking makes me.

    Here's a new discovery for you, BG.

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Midwakh

    the Midwakh is a fucking deadly weapon, i smoked this for 1 week, and i ended up going to the hospital and i was a smoker for 8 years. But the buzz it gives you is nice.

    I quit smoking, its been 9months. Now, i just need to quit drinking, then im jesus.

    Based upon experience, and what i have seen from people who do smoke it, its way worse than cigs. But the nice about it, it doesnt smell as bad as cigs, some actually smell alright.

    So, many of my friends got stopped at an NY airport and had their Midwakhs confiscated thinking it was weed/drugs.

    Looks interesting. I saw something a week or so ago posted on Digg with a study saying that smoking a joint was equivalent in lung damage to smoking five filtered cigarettes in rapid succession. I fucking hate when stoners rip on people who smoke for damaging their health and they seem to be under the impression that smoking weed is like a squeegee for your lungs.

    Find me documented evidence that shows that smoking weed increases your risk for cancer.

    http://www.mapinc.org/norml/v05/n1065/a03.htm?134

    Specifically:

    There was time for only one question, said the moderator, and San Francisco oncologist Donald Abrams, M.D., was already at the microphone: "You don't see any positive correlation, but in at least one category [marijuana-only smokers and lung cancer], it almost looked like there was a negative correlation, i.e., a protective effect. Could you comment on that?"

    "Yes," said Tashkin. "The odds ratios are less than one almost consistently, and in one category that relationship was significant, but I think that it would be difficult to extract from these data the conclusion that marijuana is protective against lung cancer. But that is not an unreasonable hypothesis."
    And yes, that is a legit source:
