    Never started, and never will.

    I am very allergic to something in cig smoke, probably the tobacco cause I get it with cigar smoke too, so I often get really angry when around smokers. However I only ever show it, and take it out on them, if they are smoking in an area where you shouldn't be smoking, suck as transit platforms and shelters. Those places have bylaw enforced (haha, I wish...) non smoking signs wich people tend to ignore frequently. This poses a problem to me cause I am often standing there for 10min or more waiting for a bus or train.

    I am not one of those anti-smoking raging lunatics that smokers often complain about. If you wanna kill yourself that way, go right ahead. I just prefer you not do it around me. Everybody I know who smokes knows and respects that. I have no control over people who smoke where its allowed, so I never complain then.

    For like a month in college. Then I was like, "this is expensive - screw that!" and quit.

    I grew up having such severe asthma that it knocked out about 40% function in my left lung. Suffice to say, I have never smoked and try like mad to stay away from anyone who's smoking.

    Look.

    A lot of things happen that I can't keep track of. She says it burns, and I say burns so good. She says my mouth is on fire, I say swallow this. Etc.

    I quit almost twelve years. Never missed it, but at the end, it was something I was doing, because I felt I needed to, not because I really wanted to. I weened myself off them. The first day or two was a little rough, but after that, it was no big deal.

    Really, once you've got yourself down to two smokes a day, quitting's not a real big deal.

    Absolutely NOT! My eyes bulged and I had to hit the back button to make sure I hadn't wandered into the Fuzzy forum by mistake.

    Conversely, I was disappointed to find out it was a poll and not about fellatio :( 

    And no, I don't smoke cigs...or pole.

    Common sense should take care of it, not the law. :2c:

    I have asthma, my reactions to smoke were bad enough that my dad actually had to quit smoking when I was a kid...he's pretty happy about that now, figures it gives him more time to enjoy his grandkids (his dad passed away from emphysema when my dad was young...)

    Non-smoker, never smoked. I just don't see the point in paying money to slowly poison myself. But then, I never was one of the "cool" kids.

    Thanks, I really needed that laugh. :D 

    I can't believe something like that slipped by me. Maybe quiting smoking has also cleaned up my mind.

    Never smoked, never will. I can't stand being around smokers...

    But If I ever smoke it has to be me sitting back in a white suit in a leather chair smoking a cigar while playing poker.

    I'll quit when I'm 30.
    At least, that's what I've been telling myself for about 13 years. Though I seem to be saying it with less conviction these days, now that that date is actually starting to creep up...
