View Full Version : Smoking
Do you think that you are at risk by smoking? Do you care? Why do you smoke?
My opinion is that smoking is as pointless as a chocolate kettle, what pleasure can you possibly get from it? Maybe for the first few months, but long term smokers are immune to any positive effects it has when you start. Nicotine buzzes etc, once you start smoking for a while you wont get the same effects, so why continue?
debate away :)

I don't smoke, nor do I think it's appropriate. I don't see a point of smoking cigarettes when they make you nervous and does no good to your body, although I understand why many people smoke weed, such as athletes.
I smoke and i understand what you are saying, after smoking for a while it gets harder to stop and as a smoker wen thinking about stoping and in your words you feel "it is as pointless as a chocolate kettle".

I smoke and as I've always said, I'll stop smoking when I stop enjoying it. Because for me I like smoking, theres nothing better than having a cigarette while having a few drinks. And I know that if I honestly wanted to quit I could. I have a lot of will power and have done it before.

Smoking, face it, isn't healthy for one. However, its highly addictive and most use that as the excuse for as to why they do it. However, i'm not quite sure that should justify or give them the right to endanger other as well as them selves. =/ Sadly, I have asma(sp) so i'm quite sensitive to the smoke. I don't think that smoking its inherently evil or wrong, but I do think it is right when your hurting others simply for your own enjoyment.
Might I ask what good does smoking do? Well its pretty obvious that it pollutes, litters, and seriously endangers health and or what? For fun? To be cool? I don't really see those reasons unjustifiable considering the end products. =/

If we're talking about smoking tobacco, I rarely smoke cigarettes unless i'm drunk or high and my friend just so happens to have a pack of du Maurier with him. I'd say I smoke less than 10 cigarettes annually.
I also don't know what's so special about smoking cigarettes. You get a head rush here and there but smoking cigs regularly seems like a lost cause to me. That's just my opinion though, I have no problem with people that smoke.

I smoke and yes I agree that is bad for you and every one else. That is why out of respect of
other ppl I dont do it in public places or outside where there is a lot of traffic coming in and out
I stopped smoking the day I found out I was pregnant and started after my daughter was born,
however, I never smoke around any one who dosn't smoke themselves or has some sort of illness.
I do however get something out of it because my life is pretty hectic, I rarely get time to myself
and if smoking is the only way to do it then I guess I'll keep doing it, respectfully of course.

Doctors state that its your behaviors that keep you addicted more than anything else, cigarettes are only like 5% addictive. Your used to smoking constantly, the movements with your hand, the nicotene feed to your brain etc. So everyone who says it's too hard to quit your mind is well and truly manipulated.... by nicotene.
