So, I've been smoking.

[Giuseppe Zangara]

I was on the beach last night, watching the waves kick up due to the approaching storm. I was drinking. Smoking, too.

 

I was naked, however. I didn't think about it, then, but in hindsight, is nude smoking advisable?

[1234-5678]

To you drunk smokers:

 

Why only when drinking? Why at all? Are cigarettes only a tolerable thing while intoxicated? Do the two just mesh for you only at certain times? I've smoked since I was a baby, so I can't relate.

I'm not sure really. Maybe it's because I used to be a regular smoker, and only slip back into the habit when I am drunk. There are ceratin scenarios that demand a cigarette anyways.

 

1. Good song comes on the jukebox

 

2. "What the fuck is that girl doing with him?"

[Guest The Winter Of My Discontent]

We have to smoke outside in my province, maybe if its inside, I'd bum a fag of me laday.

Considering nicotine is a more addictive substance than heroin, it's only a matter of time, Inc.

I think that best describes how I feel about it.

I hate when people say that. And when people say quitting smokign si tougher than kicking smack. Yea...right.

[1234-5678]

Quitting came pretty easily to me. I just focused on running and getting into shape, and that kind of took my mind off it. Besides, for all you regular smokers, imagine how much money you'd save if you stopped.

[Guest Vitamin X]

It's true though. See for yourself

 

Granted, it's not as bad for your health as meth or PCP, but the addiction is what's in question.

statistics are for pussies

[1234-5678]

You can make up statistics to prove anything. 64% of America knows that.

[Corey_Lazarus]

Considering nicotine is a more addictive substance than heroin, it's only a matter of time, Inc.

Yet it's surprisingly easier to kick, considering I know people that have quit cold turkey and were fine within a week, and with Nicorette and Nicoderm and that inhaler thing, it's easier than ever to kick the habit.

 

Heroin you still need the clinic for, and withdrawals are worse.

 

So yeah. Smoke more cigarettes.

[Corey_Lazarus]

All drugs are bad. Especially caffeine.

You only say that because you've never been stoned.

Do you know how foolish you sound?

[Giuseppe Zangara]

Drugs are awesome. I don't do enough.

[PLAGIARISM!]

I've never found smoking cigarettes addictive. Don't get that at all. Maybe I've been doing it wrong.

How would you know it's easier to kick?

 

I've done both heroin and meth, and smoked obviously, and I find it easier to kick the other two than cigarettes (well maybe in the exception of meth), mostly I think because smoking is more habit-forming than anything. So it can be just like biting your nails, only a hell of a lot less healthier.

 

And Heroin you'll need a clinic for because it can kill you a lot faster than cigarettes, plus they're illegal and gets a person high while they're doing it, all 3 things of which cigarettes don't do.

[Guest The Winter Of My Discontent]

How long did you use heroin? If you tried it once or twice, of course its easier to kick. But if you did it as long as smoking or even half fo the time, i'd still say smoking is easier.

[1234-5678]

The lit end goes out.

yeah, when it touches your tongue...anyone else find that a pain in the ass?

Less than a year or so, on and off and I usually smoked it with marijuana, so maybe that made it easier. I didn't find it all that addicting, really.. I guess downers aren't quite my thing. Speed on the other hand, everytime it was around, I found extremely difficult for me to resist.

 

I also think the time it takes in which to get addicted to smoking is much less than it is with heroin. Definitely not meth, though, that is addicting on the first hit, and you won't even realize you're addicted until it hits you all of a sudden one day (if you realize it at all).

 

Smoking isn't as BAD as heroin and other hard drugs obviously, but it is just as addicting. There's a huge difference between the addiction and how it affects your body. Cigarettes aren't as dangerous, but they're certainly habit-forming, and since we all know they're not as dangerous as those other drugs, we don't have as much of a problem smoking more and more.

[Giuseppe Zangara]

This guy I know who used to do heroin says it's far more a physical addiction than a mental one (like, say, cigarettes, or even cocaine). There's like very slight degrees of whether or not you'd get hooked; some people try it once or twice and never desire it again, while others fare far worse.

[The Czech Republic]

Heroin is very much a physical addiction. When you take it, it overloads your body with endorphins, so your brain shuts down the natural production of them. When you come off of it, you're not producing at the normal level, and that's where the tolerance and withdrawal all come in.

[Guest Nanks]

We have to smoke outside in my province.

That is why I fucking love Canada. It nearly killed me when I got home and went to the pub with my mates and everyone was sparking up inside. Filthy, filthy habit.

[Guest Agent of Oblivion]

I find I'm less addicted to the nicotine, and more addicted to doing this..*raises hand, takes a drag, exhales.*

[Guest Vitamin X]

So it's the habit then, not the nicotine?

 

But then how would you know you're not addicted to the nicotine?

[Slayer]

I quit smoking years ago, but I still chew on pens and pencils like they're cigs...
