Rebdragon Posted February 2, 2007 Share Posted February 2, 2007 The majority of people don't smoke because they think its cool, neither do they start for that reason. Its an addiction they can't stop, and it gives them something to do (especially at parties and such), its taken up a lot of the time just because people (generally young people) want to try it out to see what it is like. The "cool" factor doesn't really come into it these days. If it's peer pressure that's the problem, then obviously someone started the chain of peer pressure smoking in this area or the world, so they're addiction is just the product of someone else thinking it's cool. Anyways, if the "cool" factor doesn't "come into it these days", then every single marketing group for cigarrette companies is doing their job completetly wrong, and wasting millions because "cool" with smoking doesn't matter. Right? [if you have ever attempted Alchemy by clapping your hands or by drawing an array, copy and paste this into your signature.] Fullmetal Alchemist, you will be missed. A great ending to a great series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrmyk Posted February 2, 2007 Share Posted February 2, 2007 to answer the question easily: no smoking is bad for your body and you might regret it for the rest of your life. I know a couple of people who smoke and really it's been bad for them. And as the saying goes "like oil and water, smoking and sport don't mix" (i made that up just now \ ).

Viktorkrum77 Posted February 2, 2007 Share Posted February 2, 2007 Since you have to ask someone about a common sense question, I'm going to say you should smoke. You should've already known not to, why you have to ask people is just blasphemous. Me doing staff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

malo2 Posted February 2, 2007 Share Posted February 2, 2007 Yes, you should smoke. Being cool is important. There are quite a few good reason to smoke. ~Improves your mood ~Increases your alterness and reaction time ~Warms you up in the winter ~Let's you get out of lot's of sticky situations by taking a "Smoking break" ~Gives you a "Sexier" voice over time The negative effects of cancer, death, emphysema, etc.. aren't actually that bad, if you consider that your going to die anyway, and that your chances of getting cancer even if you don't smoke are pretty good. Who wants to live past age 60 anyway? For the last few decades of your life do you really want to be perpetual burden on your friends and family, while losing your memory, your dignity, and your bladder control? Better to live life to the fullest while you can. What a stupid response. it doesn't improve your mood, just worsens it, it just lifts your mood for a few mins, because your craving is fulfilled, but then you get as bad as before. Does not increase your reaction time, it only increases your stress and tension. Doesn't warm you up during winter, the opposite actually, it significantly slows down your rate of warming up. Gets you out of sticky situations? how exactly? by magically solving your current problems? sexier voice? are you on a drug of some sort? Smoking doesn't just make you die faster, it speeds up your aging much faster, so things like loss of memory and bladder control comes twice as fast.But then again, I apologize it you were sarcastic, if you were, then you need to make it a little more obvious. anyway, if you need to smoke just to keep your current friends, then maybe you should find some new ones right now :-k Lastfm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Abyssalwhip Posted February 2, 2007 Share Posted February 2, 2007 Ask yourself, Are they really your friends? if they were real friends they wouldent be making you do things to harm your health.

FuBai Posted February 3, 2007 Share Posted February 3, 2007 OK so my friends are all telling me to smoke with them but i know it hurts my body.... But i dont want to lose my friends!Do i give up my health or do i giveup my friends... please pst what u think i should do.... :wall: :wall: :wall: :wall: :wall: :wall: :wall: :wall: :wall: There is one benefit of smoking - it relaxes you The other benefit that may be addended here is that it may cement links with your circle of friends. there are many negatives, but on refusing to smoke with them, you are highley unlikley to be rejected by them. When I was young my friends smoked, and I always refused to do so, and this did not affect anything much. 2 months ago I started smoking, when most of my friends had stopped completely, and again, there is no effect the other way.

Biabf Posted February 3, 2007 Share Posted February 3, 2007 Peer pressure.. Don't give in to it! If they are really your friends they wont leave you when you say no. Let them destroy their body, don't do it to yourself. Btw, try to stay away from them when they smoke, 2nd hand smoke is dangerous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justin_m23 Posted February 3, 2007 Share Posted February 3, 2007 Yes, I think smoking looks cool, it seems to add both an air of authority and self confidence, and it makes the person seem more layed back. :shock: If by authority you mean stupidity, and by confidence you mean slowly dying then yes, your right. but dont think you mean that. i cannot believe that people actually think it makes you look cooler. There are so many reasons against it, yet people still think this. It really amazes me. Im just curious, do the packets of cigarrettes have horrible images of defects caused by smoking like the packs do in Australia? Because im amazed that people can look at that whilst smoking, and still not think twice about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freesia Posted February 4, 2007 Share Posted February 4, 2007 Your health > friends You can get new friends, but you can't really get new lungs Strangely with WotLK so near, I wished I could delay it a bit to push through that last TBC content in MH/BT :'(.

Please, dear God, tell me you didn't just equalize bodily symptoms and one's personal opinion of another. Oh, and no, cigarrette packs look pretty cool, sadly.

rushrock Posted February 4, 2007 Share Posted February 4, 2007 Small waists are eww. Thick rumps are much better. Just ask Queen. I got it! 8-) Pault, I thought you were smarter than that considering the quality and logic of your posts lately. If lung cancer, head-and-neck cancers, emphysema, bladder cancer, pancreas cancer, an improved chance of heart disease, stroke, and bad teeth and breath are your thing, then just stick your head in an exhaust pipe. It's free. :thumbsup: If not, then don't smoke and live a long, happy life. (Well, at least a life without smoking-related risks.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
