Are you a smoker? - Page 2

*Discogod* · 10-10-2014, 10:19 AM

I currently smoke about 10 a day, started when I was 23 after I quit smoking weed (and because I started a job where smokers got extra breaks!). To be honest, I'm enjoying it less and less and am getting to the point where I think I'm gonna try quitting fairly soon. I rarely smoke at home (since I'm currently renting, and even though the landlord's fine with it I don't want to make the whole house stink), and if I do, it's outside - not ideal with the British weather.

In fact, thanks to this thread, I'm going to try and make it through the weekend without a cig....

Stopped with that nonsense. Enough air pollution and thus contamination of the respiratory tract - even without smoking cigarettes !

*Fang Wolf* · 10-10-2014, 10:27 AM

No, I will never be.

*DarkFell* · 10-10-2014, 10:34 AM

Aside from smoking from several hookahs *each was a separate occasion*, that's about the only smoking that I've done and that has been a few years now. All I remember is that it was sorta bland.

I tend to get hit up by people that are smokers and they usually want either a cigarette or a lighter from me.

lol! Happens to me too for reasons I don't quite get. I mean, I guess I may sound like a smoker whenever my allergies are kicking my hind parts.

I think it's because we find ourselves in the wrong places and at the wrong times.

Or because we deal with a lot of stressed out people around us.

I like my lungs.

So no I have never smoked. I've had friends who smoked (they didn't do it around me very much) and one asked if I wanted to try, but I told them "no thanks." And he just left it at that.

*Shiro Kame* · 10-10-2014, 12:01 PM

No way. Smoking is the nails for your coffin. It'll drain your wallet and life away.

*Jephael* · 10-10-2014, 12:03 PM

My dad's been a chain smoker for as long as I've known him. He tried to quit once in 2006 after watching a family friend die of lung cancer, but it didn't last long.

My father was also a chain smoker until he had his first heart attack; that sh*t made him stop afterwards.

*CyberCubed* · 10-10-2014, 12:21 PM

I never touched a cigarrete in my life.

*Icebot* · 10-10-2014, 12:57 PM

I have never smoked in my life and I'm glad!

My father's never smoked but he still got cancer from smoke. That's because he used to work a job where he had to be around people who smoke all the time. This is why I never want to be with people who are smoking. At least he was cured of the cancer.

*Candy Kappa* · 10-10-2014, 01:35 PM

My dad used to smoke a lot, but when the the price went up, he quit on the day and he hasn't smoked for years.

There will be a difference in the number of votes if the poll was anonymous.

Nevertheless, I am not a smoker, never had been and I do not plan on starting it.

*turtlefanforever* · 10-11-2014, 12:00 PM

will never smoke ciggs. f that. You shoulda added "smoke what?" to the poll just cause. you can always tell if someone smokes weed when you ask that question "smoke what?" will be their answer 9/10.

Not gonna lie, I almost asked that same question myself.

*Warhorse* · 10-11-2014, 01:29 PM

No. Never have, and never will. I'm not much of a drinker either. Maybe a couple of drinks on my birthday or Superbowl night, and that's about it. I got drunk once, hated it, and never got that way again.

pandaderek · 10-11-2014, 01:56 PM

I never have, but, I used to go to a lot of hip hop shows and chill in the green rooms with many of the artists. I have drawer section filled with different flavored swishers and many small packs of rolling paper. Also, I once waited outside of a 7-Eleven, waiting to use the Redbox, then some dude asked me if he could score a dime (bag). But, none of that is cigarette related.

The thing that I don't care for is when smokers blow their smoke in the direction of people. They need to blow it upwards, in the air.

Thanks for all your interesting replies.

Yes, but in my OP I make it clear I'm referring to cigarettes and no cannabis, so I didn't feel the need to be specific in the poll. Although I have overlooked that some people may vote without reading the posts.

I never smoked and I will never do it.

A smoke-free world? I'm all for it!
