I know this has been done before, but why the hell not.
Me, I'm an occasional smoker, mainly just when I'm feeling stressed out. I rarely smoke more than once a week, but even with that I'm starting to seriously question the logic of using it as a coping mechanism in light of general common sense.
Smoke what? lol. nah, I smoke cigars occasionaly though.
I do smoke, but only occasionally.
...and when I do it's unfiltered Lucky Strikes
or nothing at all.
Do you ever trip over yourself when you're walking around with your MASSIVE BALLS?!?!?!Quote:

And what's wrong with Lucky Strikes anyhow?
You're like the 80th person in 5 months time
that has freaked out about the brand of cigarette
I prefer. And when I do blaze up, there's always
someone nearby that's like: WTF brand is that?
or... They still make/sell that shit? which I usually
just grin, inhale and blow smoke right in their damn
face.
Smoking makes you look cool and sexy.
I do not smoke. :(

Never have, never will.
I indulge in a good cigar now and then, but I haven't even done that since 2004. :(
Ditto beside the health issue i see it as a waste of $.Quote:

Fun Fact: Microwaving light bulbs knocks out all wireless connections within a certain range.
voted, I dont touch tobacco, gave up about 5 years ago
Occasionally, mostly when going out and such.
Yeah, I quite like a cigar, or a bit of a cigar, now and then.Quote:

I started chewing as a kid (working on a farm with a bunch of hicks will do this to you). I tried to quit at 17 and couldn’t. I started smoking instead. I finally quit when my soon to be wife made me quit before marrying me in 1998, I finally gave in first thing 1999.
Haven’t smoked since.
Smoke yeah, during the week i try to keep to a mimimum, some days I can go without, others around 5 a day..........when im drinking its OTT perhaps 3 per 2 pints of lager +.
Smoked around a pack a day for about 10 years. I've quit and don't touch the shit now, never felt better. I rarely get the craving anymore - occassionally when drinking.
Probably because you used to do both at the same time?Quote:

Their is NOTHING else to do when you drive for A living.
Started young coz it was "cool", Sometimes I wish I was uncool. :crying:
Yes, I smoke 20+ a day, everyday.
Want to quit though, I'm at that age where I should sort my health out.
Never tried, never will.
I grew up in a house full of smokers, the only people that didn't smoke was me and one of my sisters (she was asthmatic). After moving out, I couldn't believe how easily I could smell smoke and grew to dislike it. I would come back home from visiting family and I just reeked of smoke. At the time I just thought that it was a big waste of money. (I don't drink either.)
My dad has a heart condition and my mom passed away a few years ago. She developped very aggressive lung cancer (she passed away a little over a month after being fully diagnosed.) Ironically, she had quit smoking about 6 months before. She didn't like being a non-smoker, food tasted too strongly, she gained some weight but then she realized after a while that she was struggling to breathe more then she should be and started to talk to her doctor. I'm guessing if she hadn't quit, we would have all found out much later.
Needless to say, given my family history, I really don't want to start... Granted at 33, I don't expect "peer-pressure" or "wanting to be cool" to play a role. :make_fac:
2 weeks ago I decided to quit, day after I quit I caught the cold. But during these 2 weeks I didnt have much craving for them, only when I drank. Only smoked 4 cigs in the past 2 weeks (2 for each nite i went drinking, pretty good as I use to smoke at least half a pack when drinking). Didn't totally quit yet, but getting there.
The only unfiltered stuff I ever had were Lucky Strikes. Surprisingly smooth, but I still prefer Mild 7 and Nat Sherman Classics.Quote:

I was starting to feel some ill effects from it all that I thought it was time to stop.
At my peak I was smoking anywhere from a pack to 2 packs a day.
I went through periods where I would only smoke unfiltered Lucky Strikes and Chesterfields.
So it doesn't take a genius to figure out the damage I have probably done to myself that cannot be undone.
Smoking is bad, MMMMMMMKKKKKKK? :make_fac:
Yeah I some regularly.
Camel Lights 1/2- 1 pack a day or so.
#1> I could never find Chesterfields no matter how high & low I looked. But Luckies are good enough.Quote:

When I say "I do some occassionally", what that translates to is really that I smoke like half a pack of Luckies once every 4 years or so, or I'd have to be so raging pissed off at someone that I start getting the twitches in my hand, and I suddenly need to drive around with my arm hanging out the door and a Lucky dangling from my lips driving 95 + MPH with the music blaring, otherwise that person just might get kicked off the fucking planet.
...but due to my 3 pack a day habbit from '98 until March of 2000, I royally fucked myself up too. *Not asking for anyone's sympathy cause I knowingly did what I did to myself, but to this day I have blood circulation problems outside of what mild hindrances my diabetes gives me. Thus I rarely smoke but maybe once every 4 years, then remember why I quit in the first place once I have that constant boogers in your throat feeling. Thus almost 90% of the time most will see that I always have a toothpick hanging from my mouth, and carry extras in this cylinder toothpick tube. It takes the place of the cig.
Used to smoke ganj... Smoking tobacco was never my cup o' tea. Now I don't do any of it.
Merc is a rare breed to smoke Lucky Stike.
In the months that I worked at a truck stop, I probably only sold three packs of Lucky Strike M.F.T.
I only sold two packs of Benson & Hedges. (@ 4.19 a pack, I wasn't suprised.)
I near laughed myself silly one night when a guy rushed in and demanded the cheapest cigarette.
I told him, "The cheapest swill we got is Legends, but at a few cents more a pack you can get a name brand 2nd quality cigarette..."
He demanded two cartons of Legends and paid, then rushed out the opposite end of the store. I never saw someone so desparate for cigarettes.
The only habit I wish I could drop was memorizing people's brand. If a customer was regular enough, I'd memorize the brand. One customer memorized where his brand was kept in the display. This customer came in every shift for a pack of menthol cigarettes and a refill of coffee. There were three shifts a day.
I tried to convince him once that it'd be cheaper for him to buy a carton. But he told me, "If I bought a carton, I'd smoke the whole carton becfore I came back." --so I left him alone about it after that.
Me? I don't touch the stuff. And have more medicine to take right now than want to ever start the stuff.
I have never smoked, I will never smoke.
Better to never start than to try to quit.
Plus, it stinks, it makes your clothing, your breath, your room, your car, your surroundings stink.
On occasion/
I do the monthly occassional puff.
I smoked menthol 100s for about two years but now I just puff on sweet green. The green helped me quit cigs:lol:
Yeah Lucky Strikes are getting harder and harder to find. Use to be when I did want to smoke I could roll over to an Exxon and get me a pack. Now almost none of them carry it. SOME Chevron petrol stations still carry it, and others don't... which sucks because usually when the mood does strike me it's in the wee hours of the night/early morning, when the specialty cigarette & cigar stores are closed up. I remember the first time I smoked a Lucky some cops thought I had a joint, then I showed them the cigarette and they were like...Quote:

And I remember vividly saying to the dude:
"Well I'm older than my years in some areas, and SILLY as heck in others. 'sides, who wants to smoke the same old Marlboro Reds anyhow? And don't insult me, I've never done a joint in my life."
Anyhow, Luckies are a dying brand to the point it'll never be as big as when Bogie used to do the commericals anyhow. Though I believe there's still enough ppl who smoke them that they'll be around in some limited capacity.
That what mouthwash, cologne, and air freshener is for. :DQuote:

I used to smoke from '99-00 my last year of college only occassionally. I must be sick, because I actually like the smell of smoke, but I wouldn't risk my health to do it anymore.
I'll smoke a cigar with my dad up north from time to time, but that's it. Wood tips suck.
Tried weed 2 times when I was 19, didn't get high, and never touched it again.
There seriously are benefits to smoking:
1.) Good time waster
2.) Weight Control
3.) Early death - I mean, really, do you want to live to be 90 + years old? You have to take tons of medications just to function, your friends/wife are possibly dead, you could have health problems/shit your pants/have dementia.
Then again, one of the friends of our family smoked a lot and died 5? years before his time. Dude had to lug around an oxygen tank wherever he went the last 2 years of his life.
I used to smoke as a kid, about a packet a day, but gave it up. Now I occasionally smoke if someone offers me one and smoke cigars as a luxury/treat occasioanlly, usually whilst getting a rare quiet evening in and combining it with a drink and some music to relax. I'd say I probably smoke 1-5 cigarettes a month, and 1 cigar a month.
As for marijuana, I used to be a heavy user, now only tend toi do so if someone offers it to me socially, put simply, I got married and had kids - not as comfortable doing such things at ome with them around.

People either hated them or loved them.
Anyway, back to the story. One night we went to the local strip club to have some fun. We'd been there a few times and knew a few of the gals. So we're enjoying ourselves and one of the "entertainers" comes up to us with this shocked look on her face. She was one of the better looking ones and she sees we've got these black clove cigarettes and asks us for one. We kindly oblige. She said these were her favorite and she hadn't had them since she was in Florida. So she asks if she could have another one. My friend and I take this opportunity to make a trade of sorts. We told her she could have the whole damn pack if she gave both my friend and I lap dances. Well, let's just say we left that place a little happier and with a new friend.
So needless to say those clover cigarettes have some good memories.:buttrock:
This makes no sense.
I've smoked cigarrettes and cloves, never liked them.
I did try cigars for a while (one a day for a month at one point); however I stopped and then when I tried again I just didn't like it. Since I now feel ambivalent on cigars now, I figure that's a good reason to simply not smoke them...
Never have, nor any plans of starting.
