    true smoking is bad for your health, but sometimes people dont care, people need it to keep going in their busy, hard working daily lives...

    as for your partner being a smoker, i dont think i would want to have a g/f that smokes coz say we get married, i dun want our kids to be affected by it

    i personally dunno the experience of smoking, but living w/ someone who smokes alot, i really hate the smell of smoking and it just makes me sick. I would never smoke, esp not to get away from work or wutever excuse ppl use to justify doing something that they know harms their health.

    nothing can force me to smoke (maybe all my friend dont smoke) but my father smoke and alcohol but i didn't inherit any of it from him.

    Anyway smoke is bad but second-hand smoke is even worst.

    Smoking is super bad for your health. I have personally saw the lung of cancer patients during my medical school. It is awful. So, pls stop smoking and at the same time, love yourself and this cool planet.

    smoking is a subtle trap, once you discover the reasons the tobacco company give you for smoking are fake, you will stop.

    Not only is it bad for your health but it makes your breath, hair, and clothing smell.

    As a dedicated smoker for over 9 years, I could honesty say that smoking have more cons than not. We all know and believe whats been widely advertised about smoking; eg. negative effects on physical and mental health, the defiling ingredients of tobacco,the undermining acts of the tobacco companies, and countless more. Well, i'm going to take the defense for all the smokers and list some of the 'good' things about being a smoker. -innocent2

    Very good conversation starter.
    Exclusive club for smokers.
    Works as well as caffeine if not better.
    Good bargining chip for relationships (light smokers).
    Good excuse to buy new clothes.
    Weight lost (although its a myth, but believeing is half the battle in a diet).
    What money you do spend on cigs you'll save on snacks. (lost of appetite).
    Build stress in order to relieve it. This I'll like to explain, since its my favorite one.

    Smokers like anyone with a sense of 'self' likes to be in control of their surrounding as well as their 'soul'. We want to control our emotional state through activities. Personally when I'm worn out from work, I like to sit at my computer and listen to music I don't understand, all the while surfing forums and replying to random topics that fits my fancy. ;) There you have the emotional state: 'worn out" and the remedy, a way to counter act that particular emotion. As any smoker can vouch for, there is a certain "feeling" when one needs a smoke. And by simply finding a smokers haven and lighting one up, one is relieved from the itch. For that 2-5 minutes you, the smoker, is in total control of yourself. By smoking that cig, I'm saying 'I'm in control' and what I'm feeling is the nicotine kicking the itch bug's ass and it feels all so good. Almost like scratching at a rash caused by a sinful act with someone known to carry STVs yet you can't stop. eee.. think I'm raving again.

    There you have it, my defense against the haters of smokers.

    p.s. I may be an illegitimate defense attorney for smokers but I'm not also a client (since a month ago and I'm loving it)
     
  18. gotta know that when your health decreases, all of that will be void lol

    but say your health doesnt decrease, well.. theres still counter arguments for them

    like.. buying new clothes = spend more money unnecessarily
    relationships = some people hate smoking
    exclusive club for smokers = not anymore in toronto, cuz they ban smoking sections, so no more clubs

    meh, just like to point that out
