    I know a few people who started that way. Not me thankfully.

    Not a personal attack on you but I have always thought that people who smoke irregularly are the most idiotics spastics ever. I can understand and addiction that draws you to smoke but smoking occasionally is just retarded


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,398 ✭✭✭MIN2511


    You, me and 20,000 of us...

    We are called social smokers!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,185 ✭✭✭NewApproach


    Me very occasionally, but only cigars.

    In for a penny, in for a pound etc

    Can't fecking stand people who only smoke when they drink but spend every night out bumming smokes off you, bastards the lot of them

    im convinced these people cost me at least 10 extra smokes a night, they prey on the fact that im a generous drunk

    then i become the scab'ee :(

    I used to get smokes off people, i never thought much of this until a friend pointed it out...

    I never did it on purpose, now i know and i always carry my own smokes(never a lighter though) and i give anyone and everyone who asks :D

    I love cubans! They are a nice treat!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,350 ✭✭✭WexCan


    Full timer, me. Really don't know how people can only smoke every now and then. Then again, I chain-smoke a lot.

    I've come across a fair few full time smokers who do the same. Spend all night going from group to group bumming smokes.

    The same sort that steal drinks on a night out.

    Fecking bums.

    On topic though, I don't see what's wrong with social smoking - there are many like you.

    +1000

    fcuking hate smoke bums.

    My boss does it all the time, passes by my office on the way out for a smoke and happens to have forgotten his half the time..:mad:
    It's got to the point that I normally keep a box with only one or two in it on the desk.

    This satement seems to me to be a product of that anti-smoking primary school propoganda, it is a fair breach of logic to assume that people only smoke 'to be cool', or because they are addicted.

    Like most other drugs, cigarettes have an affect, that's why many people smoke.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11,217 ✭✭✭✭m5ex9oqjawdg2i


    Yea I do, I enjoy a smoke but I am not addicted. Never have cravens for them etc etc. It's normally assosiated with drinking. Some nights I won't smoke when I drink though.

    q2002, not everyone smokes because they have to, some enjoy it... believe it or not.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,534 ✭✭✭FruitLover


    I have a few when I'm drinking (buy my own). Not much beats a pint and a smoke. I couldn't stand them without any booze now though (ex full-time smoker).

    Why?

    How about drinking occasionally, is that also retarded?
    Is it only cool if you're an alcoholic?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,182 ✭✭✭Genghiz Cohen


    I have yet to meet a 'social smoker' who wasn't fully addicted a year or so later.

    Muppets.

    I've been doing it for 2-3 years and I'm not fully addicted. What's it to you when we smoke anyhow?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,971 ✭✭✭Holsten


    I'd have one the odd time.

    Most fun to be had is in the smoking areas.

    He said "smoking area," not "cancer ward in a hospital."

    Yeah used to only smoke on a saturday night when i was about 16 or 17, me and my friends thought it was the cool thing to do!

    I've been doing it for years and years. In fact, the older I get, the less I smoke. Tomorrow I'll buy 20 fags and smoke just some of them when I go out... then I won't touch them again til I go out next. If that's New Year's Eve, so be it. I cannot smoke sober any more.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 36,634 ✭✭✭✭Ruu_Old
