I did try smoking but funnily enough it didn't do me anything! And even funnier, neither did drinking! Of course I did go numb and all that (with drinking) but what I'm saying is that I didn't feel any pleasure or "high". All I got was headache and a few hours of wakeful anesthesia. Needless to say, I quit in disgust and now I don't even think of it (I'm much happier this way). Has anybody else experienced this kind of thing? Or am I some weird species?

Re: Do you smoke cigarettes?

No I don't! I hate smokers and the things they stick in their mouths. I hope all of them die an untimely death due to their bad habits (seriously - if they aren't trying their best to quit it, then it serves them right). And please leave all us non-smokers alone; go somewhere else with your filthy habits.

That's really not an okay thing to say. First of all it always kind of bothers me when people say they "hate" a large group of people, most of whom they probably do not know. Hate is a very specific word for people to be applying to masses, and using it lightly takes away from the struggle of "hated" groups of people, such as minorities, certain religious groups, and people of certain backgrounds.

Second of all, you're wishing death on a large group of people. And I'm sure you could say we are already wishing death on ourselves, but everyone has their vices. Do you drive? If so, every time you do, your car is adding to the toxic stew that we call our air. That's right, you, AND the hateful smokers are polluting the air, TOGETHER. Do you eat processed food? If so, every time you do you are polluting your body, just like those damn smokers. Judging from your ability to wish death on people without batting an eyelash, I'm going to have to say that YOU yourself don't treasure life so much, either.

That said, I highly doubt that you have the right to say anything about any unhealthy habit anyone is participating in. Learn some respect for life before you start insulting people for choices they make in their lives. There's been many people on here that have shown disagreement with the lifestyle choices smokers make, but you are the only one that has gone completely out of their way to offend. That should tell you something, the rest of the non smokers have tried to keep it respectful, yet you, the one that's yelling about smokers "leaving you alone", have to be so disrespectful.

Treat others how you wish to be treated!

I think the wakeful anesthesia is what makes alcohol a must at social functions. Because we all know how common social anxiety is, so it makes sense to have wakeful anesthesia in a large grouping of people where many of them are going to be self-conscious and maybe even afraid to talk. With alcohol, now you have somebody who just forgot what they said and therefore has no regrets.

^ Congrats Fairy! That's awesome!


I've never tried it. I think I know if I did I would be easily hooked so I've never started.

I smoke maybe 10 a week, and I'm not sure why to be honest. I'd quit in an instant if I ever had a child though. It really bothers me when I see people smoke around babies, like indoors.

Re: Do you smoke cigarettes?

Wow what a stupid and insensitive thing to say.

Oh okay, no need to go of at me like that. So I was in a bad mood when I wrote that and it came off a bit stronger than it should have...I do not wish anyone dead (smokers or non-smokers); I guess I've just had some bad experiences with smokers who have been very inconsiderate...that's all.

I sometimes blurt things out when I'm in a bad mood...just ignore those times.

Noo. I only once tried marijuana but it was so extremely disgusting that I thought I would need to vomit. Same with alcohol, only a tiny sip is enough to make me shake from disgust. I don´t understand, how can some people like it, even can´t stop drinking it. That´s crazy, I don´t get it. Their bodies must probably be built differently.
And I don´t have anything against smokers as long as they don´t get under my nose with it too much. That´s just a matter of basic respect I think, that smokers should respect nonsmokers and understand that someone might not like it.
