Ok, I admit it. I smoke.
tried to quit for a few times, but it didnt work out. And i dont wanted to quit for my health, but for the money.
20 cigs are fucking 4euro nowadays.
I DONT think im invincible (I even think im not getting to 30, dunno why, just a feeling), im aware of the chances being skyhigh for getting lungcancer, but i dont give a fuck for that. I can also die by getting hit by a car.I live my life the way I like it. And that involves alcohol, drugs, and cigarettes. The first two are nice for the moment, the last one is just a habit that I got myself into. Im NOT saying it is good, and i always tell people not to do it, especially kids, cuz they think its cool. although it doesnt sound reliable comming out of my mouth. I also realy try to not bother people with my smoke.
Its MY problem, maybe my choice.
and once again, im NOT saying its good, im just giving MY view...

20 Benson a day for me.
You cant beat getting up in the morning with a cup of tea and a cigarette. Chills you right out.
I've tried stopping a few times but the way i see it is that im 22 and single (form an orderley que ladies) and I work so if im ever gonna do this its best to do it now and i'll quit when im ready.
I think its bad the way the government puts all these adverts for smoking on the TV and all these warnings on the packets. Some old guy in a hospital bed dying of lung cancer. It doesn't make me want to stop but it just pisses me off that they can fill tv time up with this shit. No one says how bad alcohol is for you do they? Being an alcoholic is much worse than smokin 15 cigs a day. Alcohol is a good taxable drug. It makes the government too much money. I hate Tony Blair!

He just doesnt listen to what the country wants, we dont want war so what does he do go to bloody war    The adverts are there to tell you the effects of smokin, to stop silly kids from startin! So i have to disagree with you there. As for you ur only young and stop now or you will regret it!  |

Alcohol is a good taxable drug. It makes the government too much money. Cigarettes are a good taxable drug too. However the difference between alcohol and cigarettes, is that alcohol contributes something positive to peoples well being and therefore society in general. Cigarettes only do that once someone is addicted to them. |

it's a free choice. fuck it....if you wanna smoke, go ahead. if you don't, then don't but don't keep going on about how bad it is for you, if you don't smoke why are you so bothered? we all know the dangers and all that crap, but their are dangers crossing a main road.  |

It's all well and good to say it's a free choice, but it's the tax payers who have to pay for your choice when you go to hospital for lung cancer and heart disease etc. Oh well, I guess it's a good thing I live in the cash economy. |

Mate, yeah it is the tax payers who pay for smokers when they go to hospita,l but the ammount of tax smokers pay when buying a pack of cigarettes is ridulous!! I went to Estonia and was buying 20cigarettes for 60p, thats just abit more than how much its costs to make them!! If a packet of fags is £4.50 then about £4 of that goes to the government as tax, so in effect smokers are paying for hospital treatment everytime they buy a pack!! Also, the majority of people who criticise smokers drive fuckin cars which also pollute the air!!! I dont drive but i dont tell car owners to stop driving their cars cause their exhaust fumes are gonna make me ill!!! ...........time for a fag! |

Well if you're fat you've got a much greater chance of getting all kinds of health problems etc, your comment applies to all things people do knowing it's not healthy. Almost everyone does something like that, yeah? So I don't think there's nothing wrong with being a smoker... I'm a smoker, and I'm tired of all this health facism. |

whats a cash economy anyways? Getting paid in cash for the work you do, so the government can't take out the income tax they are entitled to by law. |

Cigarettes do nothing but harm people. |

oh oh you smoke, you're bad people;
hey what's the problem, we're all free to make what we want to, it's good to have the information, I know how bad are cigs but i like it, i think that there is a smokers hunt in the world. we have to be more tolerants with the people, I don't like the way that this problem is going to, maybe tomorrow I'll go to prison because I'm smoking in a pub, and the drunker who is almost death is a good example of the good citizen...look bush he's burning the fucking world and he's a fucking alcoholic and we can't made nothing, smoking is not the big problem nowadays

Well all im saying is my grandad smoked from when he was nine years old and he lived to be 90 and he used to smoke the lot, fags, cigars, pipes.
I've recently had an operation on my leg and in my pre-op the nurse said i've got 98% oxygen in my blood and that is very good for a smoker. My blood pressure is absolutely normal. I tell you what the biggest killer is, Its stress. So lets all peace the fuck out.
