Smoking

[scottish]

How do you feel on smoke?

Do you hate being around people who smoke, or don't you mind it?

Do you smoke yourself or not?

If so, did you do it due to friends and such doing it and followed them or other reasons?

Hate it with a passion, always have. I literally love the smoking ban and being able to eat out without having someones smoke waft over to you!! It's not just that it smells awful, my throat and eyes always hurt if I am in it for too long. After a fam party, I will literally come home with bloodshot eyes because of it.

basically just don't like being near smokers when im not smoking myself because i don't wanna smell if it's not from my own fault
yes i smoke when im drinking and that's about it although i often get cravings after a big meal
i smoke cause i like it but not enough to do every day

smoking and drinking go hand in hand and both are more fun when done together

I haven't smoked, and when I say never I mean never - i've never even tried it out of principle.

That said, I am sick to the back teeth of people making a song and dance about other people smoking, including the government, as there are loads of vices out there and if people enjoy a smoke in their day then who the hell is anybody to interfere in that anymore than I have the right to decide what colour curtains you should have or what you get up to in your bedroom. My body my choice, as pro-abortion people tell us constantly.

inb4 Undertaker quotes me and tries to tell me how much of a horrible person I am.

I absolutely hate smoking. At least, I hate the smell of smoking. I've never smoked, not even tried one, (I don't think I've even held one), but pretty much my whole family smoked. But over time, they've all given up - except my Dad. He still smokes. So for the last 20 years or so, I've had to deal with second hand smoking (I remember going on long car journeys, e.g to the seaside, were absolute death traps, having both parents smoking with the windows closed), so I do wonder how much damage that has caused me.

I think the smoking ban is superb, if only certain places didn't put their smoking areas right outside the front door, so you have to wade through the smoke to get in. I also dislike going to the city centre, because so many people are just strolling around, blowing smoke into your face.

So, quite obviously, I hate being around people who smoke, but luckily these days, hardly anybody does. In fact, I can't name any friends that smoke.

Oh my, you poor dear!

Where have all the men gone?

People where you live walk up and blow smoke into your face? What a strange place you live in.

Luckily I don't live in Leicester City Centre, so I don't have to put up with it very often

I hate smoking and dislike being around people when they're having one. It smells awful and it does nothing for your health.

I don't hate smoking, I just hate smoking in public places.

If smoking just damaged you then I wouldn't mind it, but it's the fact it damages the people around you too. It is NOT okay to light a cigarette at a bus stop and force the people queuing around you to breathe in the disgusting smoke just because you decided you fancy one.

It's even worse when I see people smoking around children. It's totally selfish and I'm disgusted to see parents smoking near their toddler. If they could physically see the damage they could be causing to their child, perhaps they'd think differently.

Oh wait edit: whatever u do in your own time is fine though. If you wanna smoke with friends who are all okay with it, go ahead. Just don't do it near anyone you haven't asked.
