Do you smoke?

[Magnet]

Do you smoke? You can tell if you wish. And no one start blabbing away "You should stop!"

I know people who smoke should, but, up to them.

Do you? I don't, I don't plan to either.

[Rarelime]

No i don't smoke, personally i think it's a disgusting habit and should be banned from public spaces.But at the end of the day the smoker is putting their life in jeopardy, not mine :rolleyes:

[scottish]

Never Have
Never Will.

[Jase]

i have taken a drag before... but twas sick, i couldn't stop coughing. i can't people can get addicted to that :s

[Magnet]

What about the start of the day? Who's life is in jeapordy then :o!

What I look at it as, is a person, holding a very large butchers knife. And throughout the years, ever so slowly, putting it into the heart. Then one day, it's in all the way and bam. Dead.

Just me view.

[boardslide]

I think it's really stupid for some one to try to harm themselves.
Even paying to do so.
Loz.

[scottish]

Smoking as In Like Lambert And Butler Etc..?

[Magnet]

Lambert and Butler.
Don't avoid the filter, and let's try not to include illegal stuff, ok?

[Jase]

[Jase]

[xJoeYx]

well your life is put in danger because you can be around smokers and passively smoke by breathing in their fumes.

I dont smoke, I really dont want to either, I have been tempted to though. I do pity smokers, specially the little kids in yrs 7,8&9 who started to fit in and be cool, now addicts.

I think smoking is quite sickening and I consider it very rude when people smoke around you.

[scottish]

lmao Just say A pipe :p

[Magnet]

You took the words right out of my mouth, Joey. Alot of the Year sevens in our school smoke. Almost all of them, I don't though :D

[scottish]

All People Smoke In Young Age for is To Act Smart Really..

[Kezzo]

I never have properly smoked, I did take a drag but it didn't even get to my mouth and I had to drop it. Im a passive smoker.

[Bradd-Aaron]

My mum and dad smoke so yes I do smoke passive smoking :'( My brother also smokes some cannabis but only like veey month its not bad only a little but It bloody reeks!

[Grabbed]

Dont smoke. My mates do, but I don't like them now.
It just ruins you.
Never do it

[BlueTails]

Nope, Smoking Kills Your Bobbles

[P_R_I_N_C_E_S_S*L_E_X_Y]

i dnt smoke around ppl tht dnt smoke most of my m8s smoke anyways so i jus smoke wen im around them or wen im at home!

ppl shud stop sayin stuff like "dnt smoke it can kill ya its bad 4 ya its a nasty fing 2 do" coz it jus gets ppl down n they dnt wanna do wot makes them happy n if they stop they will get all depressed agen if thts the reason they r smokin in the first place

n ppl tht smoke coz they wanna fit in i fink shud stop or at least try coz it ent cool n it will kill ya eventually most depressed ppl smoke coz they wanna die not coz they fink its kl or coz they wanna fit in they do it coz there is summat botherin them n tey wanna get rid of it n they fink the only way out is smokin urself 2 death

im goin way off track now n im tlkin about stuff tht ent even 2 do wiv the question so im jus gna sh now :eusa_shif

[angel329]

i dont :l

[Tg]

I dont smoke, i dont want to but i think its brilliant that people smoke and take drigs, do it more for god sake u chickens, smoke more, feel better, drug up more!!!
We have got a population problem anyway

[chilloutrich]

The thing about smoking is that most youth that smoke only smoke to be 'cool', alot of the time peer pressure can get on top of you and they just fall into peoples habits. I personally dont smoke and dont plan to. I ask people at my school why they smoke and they go: 'oh it makes me feel good' and i reply, but i feel good and dont smoke! They dont reply ;P. Some people trying to stop think its amazing that they havent smoked in say 2 weeks, i go well i havent smoked in all my life! Smoking is just one of those things, some people say no, others can't. I say, do some experiements in biology AND that will put you off!

[zak-x]

People smoke for wat
bieng cool
showing of to girls/boys or m8's
your paying money to harm your self some people dont care so thats the same as saying "Yay i wona die lets all pay money for sigerets and kill ouer selfs lets harm ouer body"

[Rs Rob]

Sounds to me like you love your self Zak :P

If people wanna smoke let them smoke it has nothing to do with you at all :p

(Used to smoke) ;)

[xxMATTGxx]

Nope Never Smoked Never Will.

[Mentor]

ive never smoked, and am never going to, its a stupid thing to start doing. Nicteen is mainly a deperssant, so actaly makes u feel sader tahn u woulnt noramls, people onl ythink it helps, as there hooked, which isnt hard to come considering its more adictive than herowin.
Plus if you smoke to be "cool" i personly think thats pretty sad.

[BlueTails]

Nope Never Smoked Never Will.
I Will Try Not To Anyway :D

[xxMATTGxx]

Lol Ok Mate

[Re-Call]

I've never smoked before, I hate smokers though my throat tightens up when some1 smokes and the wind blows in the direction im in, It's horrible as i have to take shorter breaths

[FRISC0]

Eww sick, nah i dont smoke, thankgod :D

[ChloeDust]

I dont smoke and i never will, my dad use to smoke but thats wayy before i was born so meh, also i know people at school who smoke outside of school, i also know this girl she does the whole lot, she smokes, takes drugs, smokes wééd and joints im like why? Its silly but its up to them, we shouldn't judge or boss them about, its there life.

[JT-Fan]

I Do,Ime 24 Though

[BlueTails]

True... Very True

[JT-Fan]

I Started At 20 Though,But Hey.It Aint That Bad DONT SMOKE KIDS!
Alchols Okay BUT NOT UNDERAGE!

[.Ex-]

Alchols Okay BUT NOT UNDERAGE! I am 15 and nearly eveyrone i know down to the age of 12 drinks recreationally and lot sof people my age get wasted and end up puking up, and trust me i had the experience recently and it was because i was depressed. It happens mate accept it. Just remember not to drink too much like i did and lots of my mates have, its not fun. I recovered quickly but sum of my mates had stomachs pumped in hospital e.t.c

Also you will find a lot of people smoke **** in my area and trust me smoke it and not tobacco it is a lot better for you!


Regards.

[Drewar]

No I do not smoke. I think it is icky but it is a personal choice.

[JT-Fan]

I Smoke Just For The Joy,It Takes Ma Stress Away,I Stopped 4 3 Years,When Ma Mam Died I Started Agewn

[KevSays]

Once. I took a drag, and then spewed I aimed for the guy's face who'd pressured me into it. Never spoken to him since.

And I wouldn't need to do it to be cool, cause I'm cool enough already.

[gum]

i'm too young to smoke, my friends started smoking in year 5 and are doing shrooms in year 6. It's a total waste of time and money

[Rachi]

I know people in year 7 that smoke.. i think one smokes, shez pregnant and shez like a rough person.. lol i dont smoke :) athletes dont smoke therefore i dont :)

[gum]

i would never smoke. my grandad basically breathes smoke because of 53 years doing it

[kenny04]

[Yayse]

Set me on fire and i might.....

no i don't smoke, my family suffer from weak chests/lungs so if i smoked i probs wouldn't last long :(

[?-Doc-?]

I Dont ^^ Its pretty stupid , i dont know why its addictive. =S

[ChloeDust]

About that alcohol pumped thingy, about 2 weeks ago this girl i know had a massive party at her house without her parents knowing (Her parents were on holiday in spain) so she invited everyone to her house party (She even advertised it on the internet, how silly) and basically the people she invited came and people she didn't know, lets just say, it got mega out of hand, they completely trashed the house, alcohol, sick on the carpets and curtains this girl called vicki took lcd a drug and she was taken home by her mum but she jumped out her window cause she was out of it and she wanted to go back to the party, she is now in hospital with a blood clot in the head, this other girl, called jess she got totally smashed had to have her stomach pumped at the hospital and basically everything in her house is in a complete state now. When her parents got back they were FURIOUS and apparently the cost of all the damage is 10,000+ :S she was so silly, also some of her furniture got stolen, her dads office completely trashed and the laptop chucked out the window, god how silly can ya get.. :S

[skiddymark]

lol sorry thats quite funny :D
Why thank you
And toa ctually answer the question properly, no i don't smoke

[Bef]

No Cigerettes are a stimulent, alcohol is a depressent. Thats why people smoke more when they drink. I smoke 2 much but at the moment in time im not going to quit. Its the one part of my old life i havent let go of. Ive quit the drugs and to me, smoking is just one of those things. I started smoking when i was about 8, stealing cigs off my mum and brother as i was curios. Practically everyone i knew smoked. I thought it was the normal thing to do. And now im to hooked to quit. And sometimes when im upset or angry, il sit down, have a cig and feel better. I no it damages my health and i may end up with lung cancer or something but you could get hit by a bus tomorrow. I am adding one more death fate to my life but we all die sometime and we may aswell live our lives the way we want to and not be judged by others.

And chloe u mean LSD (lysergic acid diethylamide aka. acid) Which is a hallaucagenic drug. It has a similer effect to magic mushrooms. You go on a sort of trip, if you have a good trip, it could be the best experience of your life. BUT if you have a bad trip it could be the end of your life. A friend of mine ended up dead. Your senses pack in completely. He got hit by a train. God knows what was going throgh his head. Ive also seen a boy think hes an orange and grab a knife and try and peel himself. Luckily we stopped him! Since andrews death though i have made a pact i will never touch Acid and i strongly advise others not to aswell. You can also get flashbacks of your trip years later and youl feel like your on the drug again, these can happen when your driving, or doing anything. My uncle who took acid on a regular basis when hes younger says hes had a flashback and its not very nice.

Good Post, i agree with you.

[skiddymark]

Also, id like toa dd, i ahte my life, my 3 best mates fallen out with me, i get no girls and it's basically just ****. There's always something new cropping up but i dont try and heal it with smoking, i ahv to stick up with it...

[Owen]

i have never smoked "/

[Pulchritudinous]

No I don't, every person I know who smokes definately does it to impress others, when I tried it, I was like, how the hell can someone get addicted to this!

[Pawf]

I smoked in Y5. I think that trying it young is good because you think "To hell with that! I'm not doing that again!". However it is easier to get addicted and the effects are greater.
I don't smoke now though and I urge my friends to stop.
I have one friend who insists he isn't a smoker as he only smokes on Saturdays.
But in the end people will call me a hypocrit because I used to smoke; all I can say is I'm not being hypocritical, just using my own experience to help you.

[AngJum]

I did.. stopped now, god.. hard.. I was like 11, now 15.. sometimes I crave one, but I stop myself

Omg everything you just said is like the exact same thing that my science teacher said last weak :s lol and yeh i know about lsd.

[Pulchritudinous]

Omg everything you just said is like the exact same thing that my science teacher said last weak :s lol and yeh i know about lsd.

This anti-drugs campaign visited out school once, and one girl said she thought her arm was covered in metal, and tried to peel it off, and she was scratching herself, and digging her nails hard into her skin, making her arm bleed, I'd never take that stuff, the effects sound crazy!

[.Amberz.]

Never Have...
And Never Will, Sorry, its just a disgusting habit... :$

[Bef]

Omg everything you just said is like the exact same thing that my science teacher said last weak :s lol and yeh i know about lsd.

Lol, um well i actually used my experiences with drugs and did talks in youthclubs across wales telling the kids about the dangers and things id done and seen myself.

[ChloeDust]

:o what dangers and things you'd done?

[The Professor]

Sorry for double post, plz delete this one.

[The Professor]

I think this making you feel good is a psycological thing, not an effect of nicotine. If people smoke and they beleive it makes them feel good then it probably will, just as if you set out to do something and think you will never do it, then you most probably will fail. If people beleive this then they should beleive stuff like eating cheese or playong habbo makes you feel good (Which it sometimes does), as this makes you feel good without costing a million quid or killing you. Thats my theory though.
Also, id like toa dd, i ahte my life, my 3 best mates fallen out with me, i get no girls and it's basically just ****. There's always something new cropping up but i dont try and heal it with smoking, i ahv to stick up with it...
Too right m8, same thing happenin 2 me. Mum n dad fitin ova da money n no1 likes meh :( Good way of dealing with it tho.

[hedgeog325]

I dont smoke and i dont want to in the future :)

[Kardan]

No andnever will.

But I bet i'velost 10 years of my life because of my Mum and dad smoking around me.

Pfft, Passive smoking.

I have to sticky my head out of the car :P

[The Professor]

Omg ma stepdad smoking now! im gonna blady die im sick of it! I i die im blaming ma dad and him...

[RedStratocas]

Lol. Nah. Wont smoke. I hate those scientists and people who try to explain reasons why teens smoke. Like "They are under stress" or "They are depressed". No, Im sorry but the reason is because they think its cool. Only reason. People like to think its deeper, but oh how they are mistaken. There are a lot of kids in my school who smoke, and one this kid's arguments was he didnt want to be old. Lol. I said there are other ways to kill yourself that are faster, more cost efficiant, and wont make you get old faster. *Cough*Owned*Cough*. Lol.
I love those "truth" commercials though. The ones with the fake TV show about the ciggarette company, and they are trying to figure out ways to lure in the youth. And people start saying stuff like "Bright colors" or "Cover is with a candy coating", and the audience is laughing in the back. And at the end it says: It would be funnier if it wasen't true. Cracked me up first time I saw it.

On the first point, the depressed biut are corect as there the root cause, aka why the people want to be "cool" to start with, due to the fact they dont feel they fit in normaly, and are unhappy just being then, so i woulnt make it completly incorrect

[Escalabar]

We've allready had loads of threads on this subject... :\

[Pulchritudinous]

My mum started to fit in, but now she wishes she hadn't, and now she hasn't given up because it makes her feel better.

[Butcher11]

your paying money to harm your self some people dont care so thats the same as saying "Yay i wona die lets all pay money for sigerets and kill ouer selfs lets harm ouer body"

I've smoked for 6 years, I'm athletic, and posts like above really stereotype smokers. Everyone smokes for their own reason, not just to "Be Cool", contrary to popular belief.
And I started at 12 when I was extremely depressed, and it helped a great amount, but the damage is starting to show itself, and I have been trying to stop to try to enjoy life more.
My advice to Non-Smokers: Stop making smokers seem like such evil people!
And to Kids who haven't tried it: Don't try it.

You've never smoked, so how would you know why kids start? Unless you've lives in every smoker shoe's every moment of their life?
How do you know these kids aren't abused, or lonely, or need an outlet to escape to?

[Pulchritudinous]

My friend has been very, very depressed for 2 years, and when I asked her if she'd ever resort to smoking, she said it would just become another problem when she wanted to give up, I have been depressed before, and I would never ever have thought about smoking just to make me feel better, I would have probably ended up wasting money on cigarettes and get even more miserable

And to be honest, every smoker I know did it to be "cool", I'm not saying you did, and I know smokers arn't evil people, some of my family smoke and they definately arn't evil, no-one makes out smokers are evil, just a little stupid, to waste money of cigarettes just to fit in.

[Infrontation]

Now and again when I get stressed..

[cocaine]

I don't want to.
I won't ever even try it.

But when I get depressed I may try it.

But don't worry.
I am safe

[DJ-COLLINS!]

yes i do smoke..................
