    It kinda relieves your nervousness a bit, and it's something to do with your hands.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 359 ✭✭Arcee


    A nasty, phlegmy, aul wans cough. And worse hangovers than non-smokers.

    Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.

    I started because of my job, needed something to do on my breaks! Plus, the fun socialness of smoking areas.

    Now I do it when I'm bored, stressed or depressed


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 33,754 ✭✭✭✭Princess Consuela Bananahammock


    Ah, but that depends on what is being smoked...?

    It seems today it's quite social to smoke.

    Tobacco I get a sick feeling, Marijuana I get a fun feeling.

    headachs, bad coughs but takes some pressure off you when your having a bad day (cant give up but have cut down 20 last me 3days now instead of 1)

    Relief from my addiction


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,800 ✭✭✭Senna


    If you have to ask then you just dont understand the apprication and joy thats got from a well deserved cig.
    You should try them out, don't listen to people saying you'll get cancer. Come-on there's 4 million people in Ireland and have you even heard for one case of cancer, i think its just an aul wifes tale.

    No, he ain't. No one ever gets sick from cigarettes, that's a fact. The same way no one ever gets fat from stuffing their fat faces.

    He was clearly being sarcastic lads.

    OP: I get admiration from my peers.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11,221 ✭✭✭✭m5ex9oqjawdg2i


    I like the feeling of the smoke filling my lungs. I like the taste also. I hate the smell of cigarettes. Pipe tobacco smells nice though.

    Don't smoke that much though, not every week not every day. Rather some people close to me didn't smoke at all but meh...

    You get admired by kids which is great I suppose if you wanna become a bit of a chester.

    As a non-smoker though I support smoking in general. Tends to wipe out skangers.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,794 ✭✭✭JC 2K3


    Cigarettes give a nice, light, stimulant effect.

    It should only be an occasional indulgence, however.

    Not Your Ornery Onager


    You get out of a fag exactly what you put in, plus some faeces.

    Not your ornery onager

    Aww, I think it's brave of you to be confident enough with your sexuality to be able to post that in AH..:D

    If you're talking about cigarettes on the other hand, it's a bit like asking what do you get out of eating a freshly cooked bacon sandwich? Hard to describe but, both will kill you and both will make you feel great as they do it.

    More breaks

    If you head away for a smoke break nobody thinks anything of it (as long as you're not taking the piss) and your sucker teammates will gladly take your phonecalls :mad:

    If you do the same and head away for a cup of coffee or stroll to the shops several times a day, you'll be pulled up on it by the boss

    Take up smoking, get more breaks!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 22,048 ✭✭✭✭Snowie


    bad breath, bad teath, bad smelling cloths, bad health, bad lung capacity....

    nothing in fact its the most stupid thing ive ever done....

    but for some sick demented reason i enjoy it altho ive gone from 20 a day to about 3 one in the morning one after lunch and one at night dont really smoke all that ,much any more...

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 26,061 ✭✭✭✭Terry

    Ah but some say "sick" to mean cool. So maybe he's coming out of the closet. And smoking is a metaphor for it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,264 ✭✭✭✭jester77


    They add a nice smoked fragrance to your clothes which is great for clouding BO and as a result you don't need to shower as often which means more time in bed!

    It's a drug that has pleasant physiological and chemical effects on the body, which I find relaxing and enjoyable.

    So mainly that.

    Dave! Quick question - in your sig you have a link to "organ donor cards". Out of curiousity, what organs can you not donate because of smoking? Bar the lungs, I'm presuming.

    Dunno really, presumably they'll check the organs aren't in rag order before giving them to somebody

    Think I have to quote Bebe from Frasier about this one...

    What's so good about smoking?

    "Everything. I like the way a fresh, firm pack feels in my hand. I like peeling away that little piece of cellophane and seeing it twinkle in the light. I like coasting that first, sweet cylinder out of it's hiding place and bringing it slowly to my lips. Striking a match. Watching it burst into a perfect, little flame and knowing that soon that flame will be inside me.
    I love the first puff, pulling it into my lungs. Little fingers of smoke filling me, caressing me, feeling that warmth penetrate deeper and deeper until I think I'm going to burst then WHOOSH! Watching it flow out of me in a lovely sinuous cloud; no two ever quite the same."

    A few minutes of peace and quiet. If I just stood there without a fag people would start asking me questions.
