Topic: Any smokers in the forum? Posted: November 05 2008 at 16:48 |
Simple really. I smoke lightly, around 3 or 4 a day, but at parties I smoke like a chimney. Have never really counted on those occasions  too drunk

Don't smoke now. Had a brief fling with it in college, but mostly cigars and a hookah, and very rarely at that.

That's light? 
I think this poll has been done before, but I smoke about a pack a day, if I'm not drinking, and about 2 packs when I am drinking. So about 2 packs every day.

I can understand your anger at me, but what did the horse I rode in on ever do to you?

The only times I have ever smoked tobacco are from hookahs and once mixed with marijuana (not my idea).

What he said. Although in highschool I used to have friends who would riffle through the ashtrays outside of 7-11 to find anything that still had a mm of unused tobacco in it... a sad sight.

I enjoy anywhere from two to eight cigars a year, and maybe a pipe once in a blue moon if I'm not feeling lazy.
Change "pack" to "six-pack" in the original post and you'd have me pegged.

I don't smoke anymore.
I used to smoke lightly though, some cigars from time to time and a few cigarettes, in my student days.

I just stopped recently (after a six month a pack a day relapse) due to anxiety problems. Two weeks and going.....

I never post anything anywhere without doing more than basic research, often in depth.

Only on parties, though already a year and a half, I do have a certain cough, so I'm trying to stop, just 1 or 2 per party, but just can't.

I smoked in my 20's. now I think smokers are the scourge of the planet. Only way I could quit was to look down on the activity.
Now I have cancer patients. Its an ugly way to die. And contrary to popular belief, it doesn't just occur to the old. I've had plenty in their 30's and 40's.

Nope, I've tried a cigar once and that was it. I never plan to start either.

0 to 3 a day on average really. At parties, maybe up to 30 in a night. I've also smoked the "other option", but I wont condone that here since that's against site rules and regulations. Hell, I even managed to sell some of my cigarettes for more than I bought them for last weekend, which is a good reason to have some on you  Yes, it does feel good, but I figure it's a lot better in moderation as I use them anyway. Fortunately I can quit when I need to if I get a cold for eg and never really get bad urges since I'm not heavily addicted anyway. If I ever start getting singing lessons, I'll ditch them entirely. Eh, I drink in moderation, smoke in moderation, but I also work out now and then, jog/go for fairly long walks fairly regularly, skateboard now and then and eat reasonably well, and I'm probably healthier than a non smoker that does no exercise at all anyway.
