Smoking

I think normal smoking can kill people but 2nd hand... not really. Think about it like this. My dad is 61 and he has been smoking since he was about 15. He seems pretty healthy as it is. If he hasnt died from smoking for 50 years, and he is pretty much addicted to cigarettes, how can my lungs get damaged if I spend 2 minutes around him?

i agree, people who die from smoking usually smoke a shit-ton of cigarettes aday.

remember kids, smoking is very very cool, try it.

Well, smoking sure is good for the economy, so yeah...I'd appreciate it if people'd only do it in their own homes, though.

I don't mind if people smoke, as long as it's away from me. I fucking hate going to concerts and sitting next to some asshole who feel's the need to smoke, and blow it everywhere around him when he's in a cramped little space with a number of other people, I don't like weed smoking either, last concert I went to was full of weed smokers and all they did was get high in the back and sit there as the smell just floated in the air, it was nasty. and the people did nothing but sit in the back blowing it everywhere.

This is relevant.

I liked your post because you took the words out of my mouth, rolled them up, and smoked them.

I'll just post this stuff here:

1. Pot smells amazing
2. Nobody takes the time to spin around and "blow it everywhere" . Stop acting like such a victim.
3. You didn't go to a concert sober did you..?

Most of the numbers of deaths are outright guesses, to be fair. I'm not saying Second hand smoke isn't unhealthy, I'm just saying I wouldn't panic about it. The only time it really is important to avoid it is when you have kids around. Children can develop asthma fairly easily with early exposure although most problems arise when mothers who are pregnant smoke.

For instance, you can get lung cancer by living in even a half assed city if it has a factory or two. Coal power plant. Too many car emissions. You can get cancer from all manners of junk food as well you'd be surprised what you find in there.

I'm just saying that the second hand smoke death 'rates' are fabricated for good advertising, and while it isn't healthy most people who have a problem with second hand smoke are just bitching. Children shouldn't be exposed to drugs.

View it as a drug, because that's what it is. It's just a really boring one.

1. Maybe to you, to me it's really bad.
2. You don't need to * spin around and blow it everywhere* when your in a cramped little yard/room with people shoulder to shoulder, it floats and it gets everywhere. Especially if they release it right next to you.
3. Oh ? i'm sorry, I know alot of people can't enjoy music without some sort of substance effecting them, how inconsiderate of me. * sarcasm*

Also I want to hear from @POST_GIFS

It should be forced mandated for everyone to smoke.

Hey man I'm just considerate for you! We all enjoy music but concerts are worth getting drunk for LOL

I go for the mosh pits, and shit, nothing gets me pumped more then pushing someone and then some dude who could easily break me in two bitch slapping me to the ground and having to get back up before some asshole tramples me lol.

No

This thread de-railed faster than I expected.

indeed.
it usually dossent happen on the first page.

Even the second page derailing is quite a rare site. First page is completely unheard of.

Two posts doesn't count as a derailment.
Try to stay on topic.

This isn't helping.

Back on topic, I was hoping somebody would try to disprove my links or something.
