I do not smoke and never will what really annoys me about smokers is all the butts they drop everywhere on the pavement, on the road and out their car windows. It is selfish and rude. Us non smokers have to put up with their disgusting mess. Also it is teriable for the environment, what you drop on the pavement and road ends up in the sea. One butt can pollute up to 500 litres of water, fish and birds eat them thinking it is food and die, all sorts of nasty chemicals get realised into the waterways like cadmium and so many others to. Each butt can take 15 year to disappear. If you think about it lets say someone smokes 35 cigs a week and 25 of them get Into the waterways that is 1,200 cigs that cause a problem a year and over a life time that is about 14,000 cigs that one person litters. It is estimated several trillion cigarette butts are littered each year. Now I do not want to think what that is timesed by 70 or 75. That is disgusting, all just because the smokers that do this are too lazy and selfish because that is all it is. I know not every smoker litters but most of them do. Anyway rant over.

I started smoking when I was 13 because they were given to me. It started with menthols one a day, then prime times now I smoke a pack every 2 days. I started smoking as a social and drinking thing but it became something I relied on to calm me down in stressful situations. I enjoy smoking and the only reason I want to quit is because of how much it costs. I've tried to quit many times, after a few hours I have mental breakdowns, I break things, I've cut my palms open from squeezing my fists so tight. Though I'm a smoker I can still run for miles, go kayaking, hiking, play baseball, go surfing. I know it's bad for me but it's hard for a non smoker to have the slightest idea the way it feels when you have it, and the way it feels to be needing it.

I smoke and it is a disgusting habit , I would love to quit but I turn into the biggest c*nt when I don't have them , I have tried to before and it is an addiction and pretty much rules my life. I guess you have to be extremely strong mentally to quit and I'm just not that strong at the moment.

I smoked anywhere from 10-25 cigs a day from age 14 to age 19 (although I had my first few when I was 13), and I quit cold-turkey one day after forgetting to buy a pack while I was on my way home.  I now like to live a healthy lifestyle and I would never compromise my respiratory or circulatory system because I love to run...that and the fact that lung cancer is rampant in my family.

ElijahCynicism · Answer

I smoke for these reasons, in order of priority; I love the way it makes me feel, I love the way they look and the way I look when smoking, I love the huddled outdoor conversations that smoke breaks birth, I love how they slow everything right down, I love the way you can bond with people over it, I love the paraphernalia associated with smoking, and its a way to kill time over long insomnia nights.

Smoking's a deal breaker for me.  I think that people can do what they want and it's their own business, but when I see a pretty girl smoking, I want to cry inside.  I just find smoking disgusting.

Grew up in a household where the adults smoked, indoors, that was enough to turn me off that disgusting habit for life. Won't be with a smoker.
