I quit smoking about 6 years ago. Now when I get the craving I satisfy it with mouse poisoning and arsenic. A little in the coffee tastes better than almond flavored creamer and really gets my heart pumpin' in the morning.
For those times when I really need the taste of a cigarette I just find a butt and chew on it, there's never a shortage as all smokers feel that it's their God given right to litter (it's in the fine print on the carton).
If I need that quick fix or fast buzz I shoot WD-40 up my nose, WHEW!! Talk about a rush!! I get hopped up and go out into public to share with everyone how wonderful an experience it is. You should have seen the look on the old lady's face the other day. That WD-40 really made an impression...
And who said smoking was stupid.
(BTW Do NOT do any of this crap! And keep your smoke to yourself, preferably in your car so that you can asphyxiate(sp?) yourself quicker.)

I am NOT kidding. I couldn't believe my eyes! I seriously even asked my hubby if mabey we should go around back to the emergency doors. It was the saddest funny I ever saw.
As a smoker and a resident of Norway, I now am unable to smoke in bars and restaurants, cinemas etc etc.
I find I don't mind it as much as I thought I would. When it's -25C putside you get a sad little community of morose smokers huddled around a lonely heater but it makes you feel like a battle hardened hero 🙂
Having said this, I never understood why a bar or restaurant wasn't allowed to choose for themselves if they want to be smoke free or not. I understand the argument of the staff but have spoken to many a bar person having a quick smoke outside in the snow who would have liked the choice too. I don't mind too much as I know it's not nice for non-smokers but it does seem a bit of a modern concept to just ban things when they become unpopular. I remember being encouraged to smoke by lots of shiny adverts when I was younger.
Originally posted by WheelyGets my rec, Wheely. Business owners should be allowed to run their own businesses. As far as I know, every owner has always had the right to operate a non-smoking establishment if they wished. And it does indeed make one feel battle hardened. There's something about the current situation that makes me enjoy each smoke even more than before political correctness crawled out from under its legislative rock.

Originally posted by WheelyI've never understood why couriers can't choose for themselves how fast they can go. I've spoken to many a couriers, all of which said if they could speed, and park sideways in the middle of the road, their job would be far better and easier.

Seriously though, of course every bar owner would want people to stay inside where it's warm and drink a beer. If they could choose for themselves, nobody would obey the ban.

- They do it anyway.
Sometimes they try and park on the side, but most of the time they pull their big fat red van up onto the footpath and push all the people smoking outside either back inside or onto the road.
You know what really pisses me off more than anything.
Driving down the road and seeing a car with a parent smoking up a storm with kids in the car!!! I've seen it when they had their windows rolled up and everything.
Just killin' their kids right along with them. They should be charged with assault with a deadly weapon.

what i hate about smokers is that when you are in a resterant and a smoker lights up in the smoking section next to you. you know how they can be next to each other. you keep breathing in the smoke which is horrible for your body and smells so bad! you can increase lung and heart diease by second hand smoking.
