Weed doesn't really smell that good either, but I assure you that
sitting beside a heavy smoker on a bus isn't nice at all. They do
smell, and they smell really bad. Far worse than weed!

Holy sh*t Tony!!!!
You're a f**king monster in a respectable way.
If I go to bar to play a gig, I don't even have ten done by the end of the night, and that's getting home at like three in the morning. |
It's progressive. I quit for two and half years started again and it wasn't 6 months before I was back to 2-3 packs a day. That lasted almost three years. Quit again two years ago August and I gained all sorts of weight too. Not sure what a stone is in lbs Tony but I have gained 35-40 lbs in two years.

And if you have a cigarette adiction, just be pretetious instead. You get be looked up to and save money on beer and cigarettes.

Someone should make a PA addiction breaking service 
As far as cigarettes, never touched the stuff, never plan to. I avoid anything that could even become slightly addictiong. (Except caffeine of course...but that actually helps me as far as focus w/ music...heheh....)

Though I've never smoked, I dread to think how much I cigarette smoke I have inhaled through passive smoking. Sitting on the top deck of buses, drinking in the pub with friends, even in a working environment.
Thankfully, Scotland has now banned smoking in all enclosed public places. What a difference.

I am no advocate of smoking, but there is no conclusive evidence of any harm being caused by second hand smoke. I f you check it out, you can see that the facts have been twisted in order to serve propaganda.

I gave up over 7 years ago and havent touched one since.
I have,however,put on nearly 4 STONE in weight....so instead of dying of lung cancer I will now expire through heart disease....

I tried a year ago or so and it made me sick so I never plan to do it again. It's a pretty nasty habbit, and an expensive one at that (I'd rather get 2-3 more CDs a week then a pack a day).

I have smoked since 14,and average a pack a day.It is basically my only vice.I quit last year for about 7-8 months but recent events in my personal life have caused me to start again.
And I agree with Guigo,that first cigarette of the day along with your first cup of coffee is incomparable. |
Pretty much the same here, I quit for almost half a year, and now I'm back smoking again.
And I agree the first smoke and a cup of coffee of the day is great. I usually like a nice fat bowl too.
