Do you smoke?

[DeposeTheBoyKing]

I don't and never have. Candy cigarettes are as far as I've gone!

[MissMillie]

1. I quit 3/10/98

It was one of the best things I have ever done. (I include having my son and losing nearly 100 lbs. in this category.)

[Squatch]

2. I'm smoking, but I don't smoke.

[TK421]

3. I smoke, and I plan on quitting very soon. It's too expensive

[scarlet_owl]

4. No. I quit about five years ago.

[Tafiti]

5. Yes...

...goddamnit. Most people say, "Ugh, I wanna quit so bad, but I just can't." For me, it's "Ugh, I don't wanna quit at all, but I need to."

What can I say, I actually LIKE smoking. I know it's terrible, but that's just how it is.

[Shoeempress]

49. I agree completely. Love the taste, love the smell, love everything about

it.

[johnnie]

6. Yup

Like a fish.

[RebelOne]

7. Yes, I'm trying to quit but having a real difficult time.

It would be easier to give up eating.

[Left Is Write]

8. I smoked for the better part of 15 years. I quit over 7 years ago.

[Merrick]

9. Yes. Anything that will burn.

[LaraMN]

10. Yes, and I'm not supposed to.

I was supposed to quit a month ago. I've been on Wellbutrin for six weeks. It's not helping. I love smoking. I have to quit-- I can't even smoke in moderation. I either smoke ALOT or not at all. I quit for six days last month. It's amazing how much physical agony you can be in without actually being in pain. It's so much a part of me, I feel like I'm losing myself when I refrain from smoking. I hate it.

[RebelOne]

22. Yes, my feelings exactly.

I'm also on Wellbutrin, but it is not doing a damn thing. I also like to smoke, but it is starting to give me health problems, so I am going to have to quite somehow.

[El Fuego]

11. Nope, never have.

[Mutley]

12. Yes.

I quit trying to quit and I think I'm about to fall off the wagon.

[trackfan]

13. Maybe a couple cigars per month

[MN ChimpH8R]

14. Only out the ears

:evilgrin:

[GirlinContempt]

15. Yes, yes I do

[toey]

16. yes, and i'm done trying to fool myself and everyone else by saying...

"i'm gonna quit soon" bullshit I LOVE SMOKING

:woohoo::woohoo::woohoo::woohoo::woohoo::woohoo:

[asthmaticeog]

17. Yep, having a tough time quitting.

I gave up coffee and cut way down on refined sugar like they were nothing, but the goddamn smokes are giving me a HELL of a time.

[BlueIris]

18. Quit in '99; don't miss it one bit.

I can't believe how much I used to smoke, though. Ugh.

[underpants]

19. Quit 6 weeks ago

8/3/05

[Demmygirl9888]

20. Nope

I don't judge others that do, it just is not for me.

[rbnyc]

21. Quit 9/30/98

Also quit smoking pot about 2 years ago--no official date--wasn't that hard to do.

[RedCloud]

23. Hell no!

My mom worked on lung cancer research. She smuggled home some really sick animals, injected by some really sick people.

[kwassa]

24. I quit about May of 1984 ...

after 14 years of 2.5 packs of Marlboros every day

[jus_the_facts]

25. Oh yeah....some o'those left hand kind....then a Marlboro Light 100....

.....in that order...every half hour preferably! :smoke:

[chaska]

26. Hell, no. Hate it.

[Mizmoon]

27. Quit 11/14/2004 after twenty years

I miss it every day.

[Shell Beau]

28. Yes unfortunately. I have to quit, though, so my

hubby and I can start trying for a little Shell Beau! I've quit before and I can do it again. It wasn't hard to quit, but I went through a really stressful time and unfortunately started back!

[MsUSA]

29. I'm on day 135 of my quit.

I too think of it sometimes.....will always I guess. But I'm not going to start again. N.O.P.E. Not One Puff Ever!! If anyone does want to quit.....here's a fantastic place to start thinking about it.
:smoke:

[Shell Beau]

33. Good for you! Keep it up too!

[tjwmason]

30. Same here

Never been particularly tempted by it either.

[youthere]

31. No and I never will.

I second hand smoked 5 packes a day growing up-along with a few stogies thrown in here and there. It was disgusting.

[ghostsofgiants]

32. The occasional ham

[Trigger Hippie]

34. Only when I drink, which is a lot.

I like to smoke in Boston, because I tend to have the best one on one conversations with the people outside smoking. Otherwise, I'd never get the nerve to chat with a bunch of nonsmokers in a big group indoors. Smoking is an excuse to chat with people.

[BiggJawn]

35. I quit 3-17-03

After more than 30 years of smoking.

[BamaGirl]

36. I quit almost a month ago

:woohoo:

[MsUSA]

38. *hugs* BamaGirl

hang in there. :hug:

[BamaGirl]

44. Thx!

:hi:

[billyskank]

43. You're still quit?

:woohoo: You go girl! :bounce: :toast: :hug: :party:

[BamaGirl]

46. Yes I am! Thx!

And I've even lost 10 lbs lol! :bounce:

[Greyhound]

37. Yep, whatever you got, I'll smoke it. n/t

[alarcojon]

39. Yes, but never tobacco

:smoke:

[no name no slogan]

40. but I've never inhaled

[anarch]

41. only when I'm on fire

well, actually, yes. unfortunately.

[NNadir]

42. I tried cigarrettes a few times in my teens, but my father was dying

from smoking almost from the day I met him. It took him some thirty odd years to complete the process, but it disabused me of my interest in the habit.

[billyskank]

45. I quit in March 2003

after smoking for eight years. Good move.

[Jamastiene]

47. Yeah. I'll be dead either way. The stress without cigs would kill

me in time anyway. I hate facing the stress in my life without them. They are probably the main reason I am not in a special jail cell by now. I'd probably become a mass murdering fuckhead without them. :P

[GoddessOfGuinness]

48. Smoked for 10 years

and quit 20 years ago.

[RetroLounge]

50. Yup.

RL

[Dems4HowardDean]

51. Nope nasty habit!

[Meatwad]

52. I smoke when I steal stuff.

[Lilyhoney]

53. I just put a fucking patch on. nt

[Sandpiper]

54. Quit back in 1997

My brands of choice were Marlboro Reds and Marlboro Lights.

[Scooter24]

55. Never...

[Tikki]

56. No....

The Tikkis

[liberaltrucker]

57. Yes, unfortunately.

But in my line of work, it's the only addiction permitted, besides caffeine

[hyphenate]

58. Nope

Except as a teenager, I tried to smoke by putting the smoke in my mouth and blowing it right out. Someone told me I needed to inhale, and I tried it once, coughed up a lung, and never tried it again.

[Tafiti]

59. I think it's only appropriate...

...to interject a Bill Hicks quote on the subject:

"I smoke. If this bothers anyone, I recommend you look around the world in which we live...and shut your fucking mouth."

[bicentennial_baby]

62. "Give me a pack of the low birth weights"

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

[Tafiti]

64. "Screw it, I've found my brand!...

Just don't get the ones that say lung cancer - shop around!"

[Politically_Wrong]

60. Never have...

And never will...

[mvd]

61. Nope

Also trying to get my parents to stop. I don't even try to get my grandfather to stop. He's too stuck in his ways now.

[Maestro]

63. Not really

Ocassionally at high school parties and in college but I haven't touch a cig in about 15 years.
