Cigarrettes must taste bad to be legal!

[EZ_Andurian]

Just found out one of my favorite occasional smokes is now banned. If I'm going to kill myself slowly let me pick something that tastes good you mother @#%$ @#%$ gobbling @#%$ guzzling donkey ball licking splinter dicked glory hole @#%$tards.

Be consistant ban any alcohol that tastes good or "like Candy" ban this kids will just smoke or drink the next easiest thing to get. I mean teens seem to love beer and it tastes like goat piss. Guess I'll just have to get my beedies the same way I get other illigal items.

What a load of horse @#%$. Any kid that smoked a strawberry bidi might enjoy right up till the tar gets on his lips, tastes like @#%$ and burns him. The other flavored kinds don't even taste all that great either. This bums me out. I liked having a vanilla bidi everyonce in awhile. Going to run down to the head shop tomorrow and buy them out.

[EZ_Hindraak]

How many types of flavored liqour's are there anyways? dozen's of types schnapps alone. But it's perfectly safe. It's the communist's i tell you, the communists.

Ciggs are evil anyway i mean its flavored exaust.

If it'll get you drunk...

[EZ_Bondori Zafiro]

At least with alcohol you get drunk and nobody else gets effected.

I'm @#%$ tired of sitting next to some @#%$ who lights up. You can kill yourself slowly all you want but you keep that @#%$ smoke out of my face.

What I meant was, when you have a drink, people around you dont get drunk from your drink. But, if you light up a cigarette, people around you inhale that @#%$. [i]

Quit Driving
Burning Leaves
BBQ'ing
etc.....

[EZ_Pedric Cuf]

Yeah, I'm against cigarettes as well, but come on. There's no reason for them to be banning it because it tastes good. You don't have to bring up your (self)righteous crusade in here. We'll struggle, but I think we can do without.

Stupid lawmakers.

[EZ_Synrax]

I don't smoke cigs but ever try smoking trees. Not sure which tree and what part because the friend of a friend who makes it for us is pretty secretive. Tastes kinda neat and you smell like a tree on the inside. Hard to describe this tree smell. Sorta like burnt bark but pleasant.

Quote:Quit Driving

Does the fact that I do none of things give me the right to tell people to stop smoking because of secondary inhalation? Cool! Halen : 60 assassin : Tholuxe Paells.

[EZ_Hindraak]

I don't care if you smoke in the designated area. I care when people walk by the designated smoking area and are @#%$ to the smokers. We're away from the door, in a place where you don't have to walk. So shut the @#%$ up.

[Nenjin]

You don't have any rights if you don't barbecue.

[Aidden]

Well Halen, assuming you do nothing that contributes to air polution, then please, by all means, harp away!!

[EZ_RoguePitts]

Ha, sucks for you.

[EZ_Bondori Zafiro]

Having your next door neighbor BBQ'ing and a little scent from the charcol getting into your house is different then having some guy next to you light up a cigarette.

I grew up around smokers most of my life. When I was 13 and tried my first cigarette I took a deep drag of it and didnt flinch or gag at all. I was already used to the smoke and I had never even smoked before.

I'm not saying ban it, I'm saying bring it outdoors only in designated areas. The only place I still find it a problem is in bowling allys, when a group of old farts next to you decide its time for a smoke break and start puffing away right next to you and little kids near you.

[EZ_Andurian]

Quote:Obnoxious, self-righteous, whining little @#%$. My biggest fear is that if I quit smoking, I'll become one of you...Don't take that wrong. I have something to tell you non-smokers that I know for a fact that you don't know, and I feel it's my duty to pass on information at all times. Ready?......Non-smokers Die everyday... Enjoy your evening. See, I know that you entertain this eternal life fantasy becuase you've chosen not to smoke, but let me be the 1st to POP that bubble and bring you hurtling back to reality... You're dead too.

[EZ_Bondori Zafiro]

I dont smoke because I wanna be able to walk down a flight of stairs without taking a pit stop everyfloor.

If you wanna smoke, by all means smoke. Just keep it away from people.

Even if I wanted to smoke I couldnt afford it, tax on it so damn high.

[EZ_Halen]

Awesome! Get your @#%$ smoke out of my @#%$ lungs @#%$!

[Aidden]

First you wont let me pee in your pool, now I cant exhale my carcinogens in your lungs.. You are indeed a selfish bastard!!

[EZ_Andurian]

I'm tring to find a pun in there. D">

I don't go around blowing smoke at other people to see if I can kill them. I smoke where it is allowed, complaining about smoke in places where it is allowed is like walking on the freeway and getting mad at those pesky cars trying to kill you.

I think the only public places that allow smoking anymore are bowling alleys and Mars.

For some reason I can't help but picture the one scene from Trigger Happy TV where the guy is in a Grim Reaper costume starting at a bunch of smokers looking at his watch occasionally.

Point of this rant was not pro/non smoker debate, and I didn't help that much. For those that don't smoke, Kudos good for you. It's the gov't getting stupid and in my eye's taking away personal choice.

Semi Dennis Leary Quote (If I could remember exact words, it's be exact, but the carcinogens have already affected my brain).

"They now say each cigarette you smoke takes five minutes off the end of your life, but think about it, those are the years you are in @#%$ diapers and don't @#%$ remember your own name, so who wants to @#%$ live at that point anyway?"

And another....

"So the latest study shows second hand smoke is worse than smoking itself, eh? Well @#%$ take this smoke, save yourself and pay my ass for @#%$ saving you."

The ban went into affect just a few months ago in my state

I don't really like that quote, because what about the years at the end of your life when you are stuck hacking up a lung because of the emphysema and chronic bronchitis. Hell, you'll just grow old and be in those diapers before me.

I say, if you want to smoke then more power to you, just be a little respectful.

[notwen]

It's not meant to be a serious defense of smoking you know. :B

[Aidden]

now if we can figure out how to deliver second hand humor, we are all set!!!

[Nenjin]

You get your humor anywhere near me or my kids, and I'll stomp a mud hole in your ass, and then make you eat the butts of your humor and lick the humor tray and.....

Oooppps. Got my outrages mixed up there. Sorry.

[EZ_DreaDie]

Seriously.. how many of you have a problem with avoiding smoke? And why do you put yourselves through it.. it really isn't that hard to walk away from. If some guy is smoking on a street corner, ya keep on walking by. Hell, hold your breath before your reach him. If you dislike smoking in bars and restaurents, well, move to nazi Florida. Or go to a restaurent that doesn't want smokers in it - they certainly do exist. Just.. stop complaining and going on about how violent you're going to be to smokers, especially when you don't mean a bloody bit of what you're typing. It gets old, really fast.

[EZ_Halen]

People smoke constantly in england, it's impossible to avoid it. Bus stops - they smoke INSIDE the shelter. In pubs, in bars, in any queue, anywhere. It's disgusting. I feel physically sick when I see mothers smoking over their babies.

[Aidden]

ahmen

[EZ_Fablar]

I can't stand the smell of the revolting taylor-made ciggys. All the chemicals and @#%$ in them make me feel sick. I don't mind people smoking decent hand rolled ciggys nearby. They smell nice.
Then again i am an ex-smoker.

[Nenjin]

I think most rationale individuals would agree that smoking in a small, un-ventilated enclosure, or in the presence of children, is @#%$.

[EZ_Andurian]

Is it possible to make a post that is related to smoking without it turning into a smoker vrs non-smoker thread?

Scurvy blidge rats!

[EZ_Merdin]

do you really expect an answer to that?

[EZ_Andurian]

Shut up Communist! You're instigating a situation!

[EZ_Remfin]

So what, you want to have a smoking thread, where non-smokers aren't even allowed to give their opinion?

You sir, are a racist! A racist!

[Meddik]

Is it possible to make a post that is related to smoking without it turning into a smoker vrs non-smoker thread?

Well, more accurately: Smoker vs. Anti-smoker.

Some of us non-smokers (or former smokers in my case) aren't anti-smoker.

[Kaielen]

Since when did the Rant Hall get technical?

I'm a smoker...and I wish they would ban all cigarettes. That would certainly be my final incentive to quit. D">

[Gnmish Gearbinder]

They say that every cigarette you smoke takes 7 minutes off your life. You know why? It takes about 7 minutes to smoke a cigarette.

Either way, I'm a smoker and it's getting to the point where I'm pretty damned pissed off at the arrogance of 'anti-smokers' telling me what and where I can smoke. We gave you the workplace, then we gave you theaters, airplanes, restaurants...BARS...what the hell is next? You want my backyard too?

Kiss off. I'm not a obnoxious smoker, I don't stand close to or even with non-smokers. I am aware of where I'm exhaling my carcinogens so as not to offend you. Your civil liberties are trampling all over mine. I don't go stomping around telling you where the hell you can resperate and preaching the glories of nicotine laced air. Please allow me to enjoy blazing away at the end of a Camel Turkish Royal when I damn well please.

Damnit, now I need a cigarette.

If it were really getting technical, I'd point out that what he called fascism has nothing to do with:

A system of government marked by centralization of authority under a dictator, stringent socioeconomic controls, suppression of the opposition through terror and censorship, and typically a policy of belligerent nationalism and racism.

But since we aren't, I won't.

[Aidden]

now see this is where we disagree...

I think that description fits perfectly!!

[EZ_nekoken]

Yeah, now all the smokers are outside loitering on the sidewalk. So when I run by them I damn near die either sucking in their smoke or trying to hold my breath until the next free space that isn't occupied by a smoker. Bus exhaust is damn near pleasant compared to cigarette smoke.

Actually it doesn't bother me that much. It frickin' reeks and is disgusting but more power to them as long as I don't have to smell it in the office or in a restaurant. When the zombies attack all of those smokers will be gasping like beached fishes after running 100 meters. I have the same attitude about people who pound down the booze or fast food. Zombie food, all of 'em.

Wait til it's a girl you want to hit on smoking. It suddenly becomes tolerable instead of 'almost killing you'.

I was totally walking past this dude smoking. And I DIED.

Yeah, that's right, I'm a zombie. You best start running, boy!
