You know, I can't for the life of me understand why people smoke. Chew tobacco, and you might get flavor, drink beer and you might find a new you, smoke a cigarette and .... NOTHING, YOU GAIN NOTHING FROM THIS! Why do people smoke? Why? It is the most worthless habit on the face of the earth, in fact all it does is makes your health worse. Thats it. You spend thousands of dollars a year on something that only hurts your health?!?!?!? Am I the only one that sees a problem here.
It's only a ****ing mind game people. If you think it relaxes you it doesn't, if you still think it's cool your an idiot, if you think your clothes or car doesn't smell they probably do, If you think it's not harming your health or anyone elses around you then your dead wrong!!! Everything you think you get from smoking is probably ridiculous. If you are still smoking after reading this then you are in denile and someday you will realize how much of a waste smoking is.

Think about it for crying out loud, you seriously do not need a cigarette. It is a habit NOT A NECESSITY, REPLACE IT WITH A DIFFERENT ONE! Preferably one that is a lot healthier!

Sorry, rant over!

Damn! Some people may ask us why we are paying $30k+ for a "stupid car". It's just a waste of money and it will eventually be worth nothing. It's all about what you want to spend your money on.

But there's an actual use for a car.

Of course you're right C_C, but at 16 I really did think it made me cool. Now, it's an addiction as, so I've read, great as heroin. So it's not so easy for us addicts, common sense and logic mean nothing to us, we must have our fix. Plus, it has become such a part of us, it's what we do, who we are. God I wish I'd never started.

Thats why i said, still think its cool, because a lot of people start just because they think it is cool, maybe a mentor smokes and thats what gets you started or a friend offers it to you are you really gonna say no? Probably not. I understand how it gets started.
But, my coworker replaced cigarrets with Lifesavers and he hasn't had a cigarette since. And after a year he didn't have to eat lifesavers either. The sad part is that it took a heart attack for him to realize he needed to stop.



Bones is on! Damnit Ive been missing bones!

I am not a smoker. I have smoked cigarettes before though and I know the feeling that some people are talking about.

Thanks. Some really smart person picked it out for me.

I know what you mean. The thing is you just have to make sure there are no cigarettes around and keep yourself occupied with other things. Keep some carrott sticks handy or other stuff like that.
