ragnarok1945 Posted June 2, 2009 Report Share Posted June 2, 2009 It's a simple matter of addiction. My dad went up to a pack and a half per day at the max. My family was able to help him reduce it greatly, but it's still around 6 or 7 per day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Slime Lord Posted June 2, 2009 Report Share Posted June 2, 2009 My mom used to smoke cigarettes before I was born, and I turned out okay. I don't have too much of an opinion on smoking tobacco. I would never do it. It really only bothers me when people around me do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Careless Whisper Posted June 2, 2009 Report Share Posted June 2, 2009 I don't see any real reason why people would smoke, but I don't see why I should hate them just because they smoke.. So, I don't mind them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amethyst Phoenix Posted June 2, 2009 Report Share Posted June 2, 2009 Yeah i see your point but maybe you could try to help her stop You do realize that is seriously hard to stop' date=' right? You have to find other alternatives to stray away from smoking, have a strong will to quit, and even with that, I heard some people haven't been able to quit. Oh, and cigarettes have certain chemicals/drugs that make the person addicted to it, and the more they do it, the more they want, and they then want to stop, but once again:Strong will + alternatives - smoking = good life with f***ed up lungs if you smoked for a long time.Seriously, you're either gonna die an awesome death by car crash/fire or other things, or your gonna die by old age or lung cancer. Either way, you're gonna die.[/quote'] Or, you could use common sense and not smoke in the first place >_> It depends what is being smoked. I do not like Cigarette smoke and thus do not like when cigarette's and people who smell like them are around me. I do not like the smell of Marijuana smoke and do not like that smell around me' date=' but I am much more tolerant of it in people that I know aren't being stupid about it.[/b'] It is perfectly acceptable to smoke tobacco, Ganja, Salvia, or anything of that nature (i.e Crack is NOT ACCEPTABLE). IMO, super-toxic tobacco is a waste. I don't see the logic in that. If you have be an idiot to purposely screw your mind over, and Marijuana does just that, then how is it possible to not be stupid about it (aside from not using it)? I'm not one to go on some stupid anti smoking crusade. It's your choice. If you make choices as poor as choosing to smoke, I hope you die of lung cancer. Then you won't be able to breed and create more idiots >_> There is one example I can think of that doesn't make you an idiot for smoking:If you started back before they knew about its toxic properties and are too addicted to quit. You're not an idiot then; you're just too weak willed to salvage what remains of your life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EliminateHRN Posted June 2, 2009 Report Share Posted June 2, 2009 My dad smokes along with several other family members, but they know it's wrong and always tells me to never smoke which I won't. But I don't hate them for smoking, it's a addiction. I don't really mind if they smoke around me, but I still try not to smell it. I'll never smoke for sure.

Golden Chaos Posted June 2, 2009 Report Share Posted June 2, 2009 Well, my dad smokes and he always does it when me and my siblings are not present so we won't be affected by passive smoking.And on to the point, no and h*ll NO, I would NEVER hate anyone because he's smoking, though I will try to persuade him seriously to give it up.

╬「Selatcia」╬ Posted June 3, 2009 Report Share Posted June 3, 2009 Everyone in my family smokes or has smoked before & quit. But as long as no one tries to make me smoke, I don't care. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ragnarok1945 Posted June 3, 2009 Report Share Posted June 3, 2009 No one has in my family, and my dad at least doesn't try to persuade anyone else in my family to smoke, so that part is safe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe if you put so much nicotine into a cigarette that the effect is felt differently, it will. See if you were to take all the nicotine in 1 cigarette and inject it into a person, the result would be instant death. However, when the cigarette is smoked, most of the nicotine is burned up (or probably enters the body in a much less effective way) and as a result it takes so many years before you feel any significant effects Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Judgment Dragon Posted June 3, 2009 Report Share Posted June 3, 2009 I don't hate smoking in general but I don't and would never do it myself. It's not my problem if someone wants to die quicker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skarlet Posted June 3, 2009 Report Share Posted June 3, 2009 My father was a smoker till the day he died - lung cancer, secondary in the kidney- but, what really did him in, we think, was breathing in paint fumes, he worked next to some guys who didn't follow saftey regulations. My mums smokes now, and I hate it, but really it's peoples' own choice if they wanna fill there lungs with gaseous cancer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ragnarok1945 Posted June 3, 2009 Report Share Posted June 3, 2009 you know that brings up an interesting point with my dad He is fully aware of the consequences of the smoking, went to the ER once because of it, but still refuses to quit on the basis that for a minority of people no matter how much you smoke it has no effect on you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Death Metal Posted June 3, 2009 Report Share Posted June 3, 2009 I dislike people that smoke for a simple reason. Smoking is a social activity. It's something you do to fit in with your "badass" friends at school and because you felt that you would be out casted by your friends, you started smoking out of fear and such thoughts are a sign of insecurity meaning that you are weak. Enjoy the cancer, hope you got what you wanted! =D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
