kirchzep27 Posted May 17, 2008 Share Posted May 17, 2008 I think its 15% of smokers get cancer, the big problem is cardio vascular problems and ephesyma. I never thought i'd be a full time smoker, but there is some solace in smoking and they say its got anti depressive effects. I am certainly not promoting it and if it had anything to do with cool, i would have been smoking when i was much younger. Anyway, to the smokers, take fish oil and aspirin.

Dzldoc Posted May 17, 2008 Share Posted May 17, 2008 No, I'm sorry because it does look cool. End of story. That's why I put the photos up... I'm not justifying it or condoning it, just proving that in some cases it is an undeniably cool article of fashion... Totally Dude! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kirchzep27 Posted May 17, 2008 Share Posted May 17, 2008 ^Haha, funny. but i saw a nature show where monkeys were eating old fermented fruit and getting drunk of it and falling all over the place.

Again, we all are creatures of habit in one way or another. Yeah, we are. This is by no means a shot at you personally. You just openned the door for me to say that, for everyone out there who thinks smoking is ok.... give it another thought. I won't dwell on the subject but . give the fucking habit up.

Yes, and take up drinking, as drinking is still glorified nightly on network television targeting youth and young "adults"..... There's a habit that's socially acceptable to almost everyone, no matter how many bodies end up in the morgue nightly....... Here's a PSA for this "bad" habit....

Mattmc1973 Posted May 19, 2008 Share Posted May 19, 2008 That is the worst thing I have ever seen. I went to her website and read her story, and it makes me sick to my stomach and want to cry at the same time. What a poor girl, there is no way I could ever live like that.

MisterMcLov1n Posted May 19, 2008 Share Posted May 19, 2008 Sorry, but you are the boring one. You think of smoking as a really interesting hobby. Heaven forbid somebody doesn't share the same fascination with you over your hobby. Have you ventured into the cherry tobacco/pipe aspect of your hobby yet? It's not a hobby, it's an addiction.

kirchzep27 Posted May 19, 2008 Share Posted May 19, 2008 Sorry my light hearted comment set some folks off. Was just trying to convey the effects of smoking and drinking, with the basic effects of well being...thats why folks smoke right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lzfan715 Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 We were just talking about drinking these past few weeks in my health class. At my school having a few minor consumptions on your record is no big deal. I'm not trying to be preachy, but we watched a video about what drunk driving accidents can do to family. It was really sad, on lady lost her son. He was riding his bike to a friend's house and was hit. Another lady was almost full term on her baby and was hit by a drunk driver and lost the baby. Some kids in my class thought it was hysterical. If you are going to drink fine, but just don't drive. I'm not going to say don't drink, because most people do and there isn't anything wrong with it. Just don't drive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, they are ...against "Drunk" Drivers...of A-N-Y age or group ! We banned smoking commericals fromall TV advertising years ago. We need to do the same for alcohol. Let them advertise in Bars, Taverns, Pubs, and Clubs.....Thats a target audience if I ever saw one ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I read that young girl's story and I am in tears. I want to believe that she was spared so she would tell her story and perhaps prevent at least one person from drinking and driving. I never once in my entire live drove if I had been drinking - and I never let anyone around me get behind the wheel if they had been drinking. I was often the designated driver - sometimes when I had only a learner's permit - at least I was sober. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we go out I'll offer to drive so my husband can have a drink or 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
