Dooom

None - Smoking Kills

DapperGent

Usually between 10 and 20. Sometimes more. Stacks more if I'm drinking.

Oh and thanks for letting us know denis_o_leary your contribution is no doubt invaluable.

BoB_BoT

don't normally smoke, but if i'm fairly langered usually about 5ish sometimes above. go team death. ooo so that's what those messages on the packets are trying to tell people. My favourite is "Smoking cause Impotence" or maybe I was just drunk when i saw that, oh well :P let me know if it's real

Dawg

Between 10 and 20 depending on what I'm doing. Usually smoke heaps in the pub, but can't even look at a smoke if I'm in any way hungover.

From the box in front of me: "Smoking may reduce the blood flow and causes impotence"

Big Chief

15-20 a day, usually the latter. I WILL give up soon though (albeit i have been saying this for about 2 years but i dont care..:p)

Mac daddy

i used to smoke around 25-30 everyday.
I'm of them two months now so zero a day now

SoundWave

none and never will

John2002

Usually about 20 but this can jump to 60+ if I'm on the tear. Sad really.

Jimi-Spandex

Was 30-40 a day, easily 40 then on a night out (as in when I start drinking), I smoked 140 at witnness friday night to saturday morning.

I quit cold turkey six weeks ago. Haven't looked back since.


I still harbour a dislike of people who have never smoked and fell the need to nag at every opportunity(If there is anyone here who does that let me tell you it has the exact opposite to the desired effect)

AdMMM

Only about 5, but Im an underage smoker :eek:

Sundy

i dont smoke and personaly the though of it makes me sick.

Could someone who smokes please tell me the attraction that made you start, cause any time i tried i nearly puked!

.. take these signs as a warning ... getting hooked ( after all it is an addiction to nicotine ) takes time.
it depends on what age u start really .. peer pressure for me was a factor. i would cringe now thinking I thought it made me look cool .. at 15 I kinda did think it improved my social image.
none of my mates were into any sports so that was possibly another factor.
another thing is that because they seem so unpleasant at the start ( this is an allan carr idea ) people think they can give up easily .. then they become hooked.

I was told to give up by a doctor about a year and 1/2 ago .. lasted 4months (until wittness2002 ) and have been back on em since. intend to giev up soon.


I smoke about maybe 3 in the evening time during the week and

when out on a weekend night i will smoke or give out a box of 20.

( i will accept smokes if offered on a night out or in work during the day too )

Tyrrial

Smoking and most smokers make me sick!
what i really hate is having to put up with the stick of my cloths after i've been around smokers for a night.
they should just Fúck off and continue killing themselves on their own time*


*this does not apply to all smokers, some are quite considerate and i'd like to thank you.

gollem_1975

i'd guess that many of the reindeer section are smokers ... in fact most muso types i've met/know are smokers
although at least they have the consideration to make decent music

cartman

I was very bad until bout 2weeks ago,
I was at 30-35 a day and way more when im out but not iv cut down to 25ish 20..
which is ok im on the road to giving up:)..

Im only 18 [im gonna die soon:/]

Cigs, ack!!!
evil things they are and god will strike you down for smoking them, you just don't know it yet...

My dad used to smoke 30+ a day for 30 years then he gave them up and continued to work in a pub for another 20 years or so.
Don't know how he stuck it!

Fair Play to him!

l3rian

maybe 1 or 2 every now and again, so per day on average maybe .1, i dont find them addictive

Silverfish

20 a day, but when I'm drinking that could be an additional 20 - 40.

My current pack is one of the cool ones, that says 'Smoke containes benzene, nitrosamines, formaldehyde and hydrogen cyanide'

Don't exhaust fumes contain all those as well??

BAN CARS!!!!

People generally drive cars outdoors, not in small enclosed areas like pubs and offices and such.

True, but you still have to breath in the **** if your on a bike behind a car/truck.
Does wounders for your lungs I'm sure...

... l3rian

i thought it was now commonly accepted that nicotine was a highly addictive substance .. maybe thats just anti-smoking ( or pro-smoking ) propaganda.

it is very possible though that you are not addicted yet ...

ps: haven't smoked yet today ... on page 30 of allan carr .. go me!
