Smoking

If you have something so weird, strange or off-topic to post and think it doesn't belong in any other forum; you're probably right. Please put all your gormless, half-baked, inane, glaikit ideas in here. This might also be a place where we throw threads that appear elsewhere that don't belong ANYWHERE end up, instead of having to flush them. FORUM RULES STILL APPLY.

People like to raise that when they don't want to feel bad about killing themselves with smoking. And also about great unle Billy who is 100 years old chain smoking.

Smoking significantly increases your odds of dieing sooner than you would have otherwise.

The fact there are a number of other things that are also dangerous and deadly doesn't make smoking safer.

Trying to stop smoking's weird. On the one hand it's dead easy. You don't even have to do anything. You can literally do NOTHING and succeed. The only requirement is not doing one thing, ie smoking a cigarette. On the other hand IT IS FUCKING IMPOSSIBLE. I WANT A FUCKING CIGARETTE. ALL I WANT IN THE WORLD IS A FUCKING CIGARETTE.

If they are serious, they have to stop people burning plastic.
[/Happy smoking 🚬 today the price went up by 12.5%. That put the price up to almost $2 a cigarette. The average smoker will spent $12,500 a year on smoke.the government will claim $ 17 billion this year from smoke tax.
This is why banning them will never be an option. AU numbers

There would be riots. There would be people who'd kill for a smoke I reckon. Banning it would be carnage.

I think banning anyone born after say 2005 from smoking might have some merit though.

God I would LOVE a cigarette. The taste of it. That maturity. The rich autumnal taste; the mellowness. The intense rush as it hits your brain. Floods into it, delivering what it needs. Breaking the drought and giving it life. Everything released. Then it rushes through your nose. That beautiful smell. You taste it in your mouth. It courses through your blood, giving your whole body a high. Everywhere, it feels so good, you arms, your legs. You don't need anything. You don't need anyone. Because you have got about 20 drags of heaven about to come.

I had 1 and it was nothing like as good as I thought tbh. Seemed to last about 30 seconds. Think I only got about 10 drags out of it. Feel a little bit light headed now, maybe a little bit high, but that's about it. Quite a nice taste I suppose. Started doing that eye rolling shit again. Think that's my brain's way of saying where's the fackin rest ?

I remember getting a numb feeling in the knees when I was having urges. Fighting through those times was rough. I was on a pack a day but if on the piss I could smoke a bunch more.

I quit cold turkey, no patch or gum or anything. I did have chewing gum constantly and started brushing my teeth an abnormal number of times per day.

That would be a good idea in countries where there is rule of law. Anyone born after 2005 is never allowed to smoke. In 80 years time, there will be no smoking.

In Cambodia, they don't seriously enforce the law. So people would not take it seriously.

I did exactly the same. Been 10 years now. The anxiety attacks in the middle of the night were weird but you eventually get passed it.

The Zimbabwe ex-President will be remembered for his great wit and his colourful language, this is one of his memorable quotes.

"A cigarette is a pinch of tobacco rolled in a piece of paper with fire on one end and a fool on the other end."
