Too many damn smokers in the world, i think i have made a topic on this a while ago but i will do it again.
Walking home today with my mates, as i am waiting for them i see them asking loads of people for "fags".
So i ask them why they smoke, what is the point in it?
Them being them, they just say shut up.
But its true, what the hell is the point in smoking?
You waste your money on something that is very bad for you and could end up killing you.
One of my mates managed to get 3 fags, he was extremley annoyed at me after i hit the first fag out of his hand and onto the floor.
Then i done exactly the same to the other 2, he he he, he was more annoyed then i have seen him for a while.
You would think my mate would of learned his lesson after he got caught smoking on school grounds on Friday and they phoned his parents up. But the fool just doesnt learn.
I walk home with about 5-6 people, all of them smoke, normaly i try not to walk with them because the smell of smoke is just awfull, and it stays in your clothes, then other people think that you yourself smokes.
Just last week this lady pulled up at the middle school next to my high school to drop off her son, he must of been about 11-12, he got out the car smoking. His mum was smoking and his dad too, now thats upto their family but i think that, that is just pure wrong. There should be a law to how old you have to be before it is legal to smoke.
When you are walking down town you always get that person who is in front of you smoking, and the smoke is just drifting back right into you face and you just want to tap them on the shoulder and tell them to put it out.
But because it is 100% legal you cant really do that.
But it should be a law, you are not allowed to smoke in public places or near anyone who wishes not to be in the company of any cigarette smoke.

Your views on smoking, the law and the age limit.

You know I smoke, and am very open minded to the idea of not smoking again, but calling people puke is a bit pathetic really.

I think people who smoke because they think it's cool are brain-dead.

I have my reasons for smoking; I'm an adult and I know the consequences.

Well, precisely. The 'decision' to start smoking is a huge one - you are about to embark on a habit that will probably last for a life time, will have a massive effect on your health and lifestyle, and may well be your demise. To start such a thing to look 'cool' is quite simply the most foolish thing I've ever heard of.

The more I discuss this, and the more examples of where it is affecting my life, the more I'm considering giving up. My mum gave up 2 months ago and she's been smoking for about 30-40 years. It's certainly an inspiration. Is it just the herb you smoke Tim or cigs aswell?

Just herbal. I've been doing it regularly for about 8 years and have stopped for over 4 months a couple of times just to see if I could and, apart from the return of the pain, it wasn't a problem.

Well it was bloody annoying when, whilst waiting at a packed bus stop, a small guy (yup, smaller than me) casually walked up to within 10cm to where I was standing and started puffing away on his Grade A Mayfair cigs. Ugh.

Yeah, well that's good, you won't be doing too much damage to yourself there. What amazes me is some people smoke around 40-60 A DAY!! I find it difficult to understand how they can do anything physically taxing without coughing up a pint of mucus.

I think I'm going to pack it in and just smoke the green stuff from now on.

only at weekend, and only a couple of joints, if that. Usually.

Anything done to excess is a bad idea. I think.
