I don't smoke and I definantly never will. ^_^' Dad smokes but mom doesn't so I follow after my mom but I doubt (I'm sure) thye wouldn't let me. ^^' (not that I want to)

I sometimes smoke when I'm drinking alcohol or at special occasions. I used to smoke everyday since I was like 14 or 15 and only quit about 3 months ago, and most of you will probably be saying, "eeeuuww, you vulgar person you", but hey, I'm only a victim of trying something out on at an early age and I got addicted. I have quit constant smoking and may only smoke about a 10 half year, but some might say thats still not good enough... but who cares!, I'm only shortening my lifespan just short of having a snails pace of a brain

Okay, lets sum up whats been said in the above paragraph that some of you people here only see in smokers... Smoking, alcohol, vulgar, victim, addicted, constant smoking, shortening lifespan... Yes, those are thoughts that float around in the peoples heads that thinks smokers are bad. There's nothing wrong with smoking and it's not something like a widespread epidemic, it's a choice people make. People also don't smoke for the actual taste of smoke (except the cigar smokers), it's more like the feeling you get while smoking, very much like the satisfaction you get while eating a good ol' chocolate. Granted, you get your chain smokers and people who don't care for smoking in the presence of other people, but not all smokers are like that and don't have filthy lifestyles that some people think they have, some have normal healthy lifestyles with a little smoking included like me.

This is just my opinion and if you don't have constructive arguments in response then don't reply

PS: Didn't you know?... Smoke chases away evil spirits and cleanses the spirit :P

Was curious when i was younger, so i stole a ciggy from my dad and tried it...man did i cough a shit load after that...never touched it since... XD

No, I don't smoke, and I'm glad I don't. I abhor it when people smoke around me, I just don't want to be around it. But, my dad smokes, and so does the rest of my relatives on his side of the family. It's one of the several reasons why I try to stay in my room often. =P

I smoke socially, I know it isn't a good thing to do, but still, I'm one of those persons who does like it... I'm glad I'm not really addicted to it, or I would be dead by now x3

I don't smoke but i alread tried (thanks to my curiosity). Not very good for the health.

I don't know. My Dad don't. My Mom don't. And of course, my 'lil sister don't smoke. My big bro smoking and all of family members are really upset that he lie about that to us. I don't hate smokers, I just dislike it. But how can I dislike my own bro? He rarely smoke in his own bedroom and never smoke around the house. My Dad maybe will kill him if he ever dare to do that - I know, it's not a funny joke. The point is, my big bro knows that he shouldn't do it around the house or around the family members. We're trying to make him quite it for months - we just knew it few months ago. And we're still trying. Would never stop until he quit. I'm not going to hate or kill him for being a smoker, but I can't see my own big bro doing something which I think could harm himself and people around him.

People around him? Yes.
As we all know, the negative impacts are worse for the passive smoker - people who not smoking but being around the smokers - than the active smoker.

Since I'm not smoking, I have no reason to reject a policy that tells people to smoke in a special area when they're at public places. Not smoking in a general places. I sometimes go to school by general transportation. And sometimes, I'm being so unlucky by sitting in front of a smoker which really disturbing. I suffer bronchitis until few years ago, so I'm pretty sensitive when I saw smoker who smoking in public places.

I don't smoke and I never plan to either. With me being asthmatic, I have to hold my breath just to be able to walk past a person that is smoking, otherwise I'm coughing for about 2 minutes or so.


Umite.

I'm not smoking and i hope i never will
what makes people smoking?i think smoking made your mouth smell like hell..
i don't know about the the disease after you smoking,even in the ciggy box there is a LOT of warning,there's still many smokers..
i hate smokers especially girls or women that smoke,coz it smells bad when you kissed someone that smoking before >_<

I don't smoke and most likely never will. Such a disgusting habbit. It makes a good place bad. It's like people don't care that there are non-smokers around.

I don't smoke and I never will... yeah, i tried once, and it doesn't like me, my brother smokes, and my cousins, they always talk about their addiction, and t osmokin is bad to the health, plus I really hate the smell... i hate when people around me smokes, but I can't do anythin' if they wanna die, well... not my problem, I preffer to live my way "healty"

Geez people make a big fuzz about this topic- one word for this ANNOYING- yesh i do smoke, but i respect no smoker also, with no smoking in close and public place =P -
i think pot is healthier than tabaco so lets leave nicotine and replace it for a healthier stuff- sounds better for me

Used to smoke, quit after about a year, used to smoke the wacky tabacky, quit that after eight years.

Umm .. nope .. never smoked .. and will never smoke too because it's bad and secondly i have asthma, no good for people who has asthma.
I always block my nose when im next or near them. People who smokes are kinda stupid, no offence. But why smoke when depress or whatever, isnt' that kidna stupid? there's always another thing you could do beside smoking. Smoking will always make everything worser, i even try to encourage my dad not to smoke but he always say the same thing:
"I can't stop smoking!I wish i could stop but i can't, it's too addictive."
it's so useless .. oh wells .. it's just how people are

I don't smoke at all, since my family restricts it and I know the problems that it will cause to your body. Also many people do not like to inhale second-hand smoke so I prefer not to smoke.. Plus, it will cost me money as I am saving right now!
