drealmer7: I abhor cigarette smoke. I can be 100 ft. away from someone who is smoking in a large open parking lot and still smell it and it makes me physically ill. I scream 'YOU STINK! YOU ARE DISGUSTING!!' as I run for cover and try not to feel ill+have a headache for the rest of the day. Smoking in all public areas should be banned. Smoking in cars should be banned. Ohya, the other day I saw this guy with 2 girls under 10 years old in his back seat. He had the windows up and was smoking a cigarette. I flipped him off and mouthed "you fucking asshole" SO HARD at him, and he stared at me puzzled. I saw a woman get out of a car who was smoking a cigarette, looked back at her car because I saw movement, and there was a dog inside, the window was cracked and it was pushing its nose as hard and far as it could out the crack. I wanted to go break the window and let the dog escape/take it to a shelter, but I refrained.
It is actually illegal to smoke in a car with children in it in the UK now, which is a common sense law in my book.

E-cigarettes are also extremely gross. Go suck on some jolly ranchers or a root beer barrel if you want flavor in your mouth and leave other people out of it. Some people don't even think it matters and will blow a huge billow of smoke right in your direction and say "it's just vapor!" WTF?! I want to break their e-cigarettes in half and stab them in the eyeballs with the 2 remaining pieces.

Sometimes a regular pipe tobacco smoke or even cigar can smell nice, but I don't want my exposure to them to be anything but passing quickly.

I do love to smoke cannabis, but I do that in my own private space where no one is forced to encounter it. The varying smells and flavors are delectable.
You are a nutcase.
Give up the dope,because you have become one.
I cannot believe a sane person would make such a statement,see a psychiatrist (real quick) or....line 8,last word.

tinyE: In Michigan it is now illegal to smoke inside any public building and I LOVE THAT!
Not long ago there was a similar law in effect over here but didn't last very long... people stopped smoking for a while until everybody act like it never happened. What can you say... Greece! :P Personally, I don't smoke. I can't stand the smell.

I can't smoke, it gives me a terrible headache. Even being around non-tobacco smoke too much (wood fires, etc) causes them for me.

I did tend to associate with the smoking-inclined group in High school, but it never really rubbed off.
In part, because it was expensive and I never had the money to fund the habit. That which I did manage to accumulate, went towards my PC gaming habit, which was likely for the best.

Also, I wasn't exactly a rebellious kid, and I was too afraid to get into trouble.

Same here.

Not by choice mind you; I was chained up in the basement.

Quit cigarettes more than a years ago.Switched to vaping for 4 months and really enjoyed it. Then decided to stop it all together.

Smoking is fucking expensive and tastes like butthole. Vaping was way better in every way and I still recommend it to people as a harm reduction tool.

That being said I am nearly at the one year point of being nicotine free. Go me!

You mean now that you quit you regained the power of smell and realized how awful your own scent was, right? :)

Fairfox: If so, do you have a problem?
Only when I lit up in elevators and maternity wards. They had no ashtrays.

CARRiON.FLOWERS: ...lots of people just get suckered into it, either from social circles or back then, advertisements and general lack of knowledge...
...and they don't have the ability to make a conscious choice of "I don't want to do that" and then not do it? Nonsense.

My gradmother was a HARDCORE smoker for 50+ years, had a health issue one day, went to the doctor, he told her if she kept smoking she was going to die soon. She stopped cold turkey and never had another and 25 years later is still alive.

I think people are just lazy and weak and don't want to take responsibility for their own actions and choices.

Oh and if you blew smoke in my face I most certainly would vomit in yours.

People who smoke in houses or cars with children (or animals) should have those children (or animals) taken away from them. They shouldn't be permitted to have anything to do with the well-being of another living thing.

Well congrats for you, not everyone in every situation has the willpower or aversion to smoking you do, and not everyone can quit as easily as your grandmother did. My grandfather tried all his life to quit, but the grip was too tight, and he went out with a cigarette in his mouth. So blanketing everyone as being lazy and weak is really ignorant, because everyone is different, and deals with addictions more easily or harshly then others.

For me, quitting smoking was rather painless, but cutting out alcohol was one of the hardest things I've ever done. For my parents, they're having a very hard time quitting smoking, but they can drink on and off no problem.

I won't argue about smoking around children because I mostly agree that you shouldn't do that, but on the other hand they're not my kids and I'm not going to tell people how to live since it gets on my nerves when others do that to me.

If you vomited in my face I would return the favor. Now this party is really getting started.

We all have to live in this world, and so I have to live in a world with other people's children, and so they are also my children, and so I have just as much "right" to suggest or tell someone what I think about how they are raising their children or are being themselves. More people need to tell more people how they could do better/improve and have it not be a harsh and cutting thing, but a supportive and helpful thing, we'd all be better off. This "they're my children/it's my business" mentality is nonsense.

As for the rest of it, people are just making it more complex than it needs to be, and that is why I call them weak and lazy. Control your hand, and don't pick up a cigarette, or alcohol. It's easy to NOT do something, you just don't do it.

Somehow, I don't think you understand the definition of "addiction".
If it were that easy, thousands of people wouldn't be struggling with it.
