1. I'm wondering how many of the "tough" guys here who want all smokers dead have actually smoked.

2. Some of us started smoking while we were still young and dumb. Not necessarily ignorant of the dangers but ignorant of how addictive smoking is. Nicotine is one of the most addictive substances known to man.

3. I want to know how many of you "tough" guys have smoked and decided to quit just like that.

4. Yes smoking is bad for you, and everyone knows it is not a wise� thing to do.

5. About the healthcare cost. How much do sports cost society? How many serious injuries, that cost the healthcare system enormous amounts of money, do sports cause? Should we therefore ban sports as well?

6. Yes, smoking is bad for you. And I don't want anyone to start smoking. And I would get furious if my kids started smoking.

7. To quit smoking isn't as easy as many of you non-smokers think. For several reasons but I won't go into it here.

8. Yes, smoking is bad. That does not make smokers Evildoers�

Oh **** off. You're like... 12 years old.

Smokers are cool. It's the ****ing bible thumpers I can't stand. They should be lined up and shot IMHO. Then propped up and shot some more.

God I hate religious people. They're soooo stupid and evil (and gullible).

Jesus didn't smoke did he? No! Why? Dork!


Jesus wasn't cool. If he smoked they probably wouldn't have nailed him to a tree.

Smoking makes you look sexy so you'll procreate sooner. You'll die sooner but then you've already procreated. Darwin I need a word with you

Chewing tobacco or Snus now that is DISGUSTING!!
I could take Sean Connery in a fight... I could definitely take him.

Apparently, the best way to get a 'hit' from a cigarette is anally. Yeah, thats right. I hear that the best way is to use one of those tampon inserters, right up your butt. Just remember to break the filter off first.

I've read recently that, because smokers die younger on average (even though they require treatment), they're a LOT cheaper on public health insurance than non-smokers.

Keeping old people alive and healthy is FAR more expensive.

Unfortunately, Australia also has one of the worlds highest ageing populations, that means that we have a problem here,

No ones making babies, and those who are that smoke, are retarding them with demented mutated genes.

I'm Not 12!!!!, but at that age YES I was working and yes I DID PAY TAX!!!

Actually as far as I know, there have been no proof backing Bush's cocaine usage.

It is another "Because he didn't say he didn't he did!" type of things.

You could take your cue from that Star Trek: tNG episode where the alien culture's old folks off themselves at a certain age.

Linfidels harken! 'The creatures outside looked from pig to man, and from man to pig, and from pig to man again; but already it was impossible to say which was which.'

I'd say both probably want to screw the smoking bad boy.

Interesting discussion. I just discovered it now so I guess I'll chime in.

At first I thought SUBGENIUS was new to smoking and wanted to know how to do it right, perhaps to fit in with his friends. I hate to see young people start smoking because once they're hooked it's so difficult to stop. I feel no hostility to smokers, although the smell of smoke does annoy me terribly. I realize that most made some dumb decisions when they were young and now they're paying the price for it. Everyone makes dumb decisions when they're young. A number of my friends smoke and I don't hold it against them. I just make sure they don't smoke in my house or anything, and I don't let them crash at my place (unless it's an emergency) or even stay too long because that smell is difficult to get out and it's really gross. But I think that's reasonable.

I don't think smoking is cool at all. Sometimes I'll see a girl who is pretty attractive, and then I see her smoking and I immediately lose interest in her. But anyway, my point is that I just kind of feel sorry for smokers and it's too bad they made some bad decisions in the past.

Tell me how to smoke, please.
It's really quite easy. Just grab a can of gasoline, pour it on your lap, and light it on fire. You'll smoke for quite some time.

That does not make smokers Evildoers�
True, if you're a nice smoker. OTOH, you should see the bitchin' and complaining when a smoker is asked to put out a cigarette in a non-smoking restaurant or in an elevator. Those are the Evildoers�.

Drunks are obnoxious and reek. The Evildoer� smokers are obnoxious and reek, and make everyone around them reek as well.

And this I agree with. Smokers should respect these non-smoking areas as well as people who don't smoke. Those who don't are Evildoers�.
