How many of you have smoked?

<p>“Wartsandall, spare us your self righteous bull.”</p>

<p>Is that your way of telling me that you know doing drugs is wrong?:)</p>

<p>I changed it to 8 minutes, sorry about that.</p>

<p>I’m glad everyone does really well while they are high. That’s really something to be proud of and I’m sure you will tell that to your children:)
Personally, I would opt to do well on my own without the use of illegal aids, but that’s just me:)</p>

<p>I think there are too many variables to determine how much life a cigarette takes away from you. I know of people who get cancer at age 35, and I know of people who stay pretty healthy till 60 or 70 having smoked since they were 15.</p>

<p>Warts, you just spurred a debate. Reminds me of that weed thread a while back.</p>

<p>

Yeah. Thank you. :)</p>

<p>

My grandmother is like 70 and she has been smoking for a long time now…</p>

<p>No problem:)</p>

<p>Does that mean that she is healthier than she would be without smoking?</p>

<p>But seriously, Warts, you should try it out. Maybe it will loosen you up a bit, take off the stress coming from the SAT and your bajillion AP courses.</p>

<p>

Warts, it’s a fact of high school. A lot of people smoke.</p>

<p>I’ve been offered to smoke a few times and it’s really not that big of a deal. </p>

<p>I declined their offers btw. hahahaha.</p>

<p>But yea…It’s how a lot of people relieve stress. Sure, it’s bad for you. But smoking a few times every now and then won’t kill a person.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>How did you intepret my words that way? Proof that you don’t have to “whacked out” to be whack. </p>

<p>It’s actually my way of saying that you think that because you don’t smoke, you are better than us. So again: spare us your self-righteous bull. Go post about it on the debate thread if you care so much about your misinformed conservative beliefs, but don’t cry about it here. </p>

<p>I should smack you in the face with my ACLU membership card, maybe it will wake you up a bit.</p>

<p>No thanks:)
The drugs we are referring to are illegal.
“Personally, I would opt to do well on my own without the use of illegal aids, but that’s just me.” I stand by this.</p>

<p>You know what, I won’t smoke. I honestly don’t care if you smoke at all, just don’t do it around me, children, or other people who would opt not to do drugs, thanks:)</p>

<p>^^^ Warts is a non-ccer, actually =O</p>

<p>She probably isn’t, but hell if she doesn’t have emphysema or a hole in her throat then she’s probably doing alright for a 70 year old.</p>

<p>And yeah, cigarettes are damn good at taking the edge off of you. Do I wish I hadn’t started? Yeah, because unfortunately they’re not as well-recieved by everyone as other substances.</p>

<p>It’s kinda funny really. I’ve heard people say “smoking is bad for you” TONS of times, but do you ever hear of:</p>

<p>-People dying because they were smoking and driving
-People coming in late to work and performing poorly because of the cigarettes they smoked the night before
-Families being broken apart by cigarettes
-People being sent to the hospital because they smoked too many cigarettes in one sitting
-People dying from smoking too many in one sitting</p>

<p>No, you haven’t. If those things sound familiar though, it’s because there’s a substance called alcohol which is arguably just as ‘evil’ as tobacco and yet it seems all the people who criticize me for smoking turn around and get drunk each weekend.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>I don’t care what you believe, and I could care less. What I’m saying is, don’t post in this thread chastising others for their beliefs, for doing something you know nothing about. Be tolerant, or you’ll be intolerable to me.</p>

<p>PS: they were made illegal for political reasons, and they remain legal in many parts of the world.</p>

<p>Lots of people have marijuana cards. You can smoke legally. </p>

<p>…</p>

<p>Just putting that out there…</p>

<p>“I don’t care what you believe, and I could care less. What I’m saying is, don’t post in this thread chastising others for their beliefs.” I concur.</p>

<p>“Be tolerant, or you’ll be intolerable to me.”
Be tolerant of my beliefs too.</p>

<p>“they remain legal in many parts of the world”</p>

<p>If you would like to do drugs at your age legally, move somewhere else:)</p>

<p>I repeat:
“You know what, I won’t smoke. I honestly don’t care if you smoke at all, just don’t do it around me, children, or other people who would opt not to do drugs, thanks”</p>

<p>I think this is almost exactly like how the other weed thread ended up.</p>

<p>

Haha, yup. Just make neutral comments and watch it all unfold!</p>

<p>Right, who cares if teenagers are doing drugs illegally? LOL</p>

<p>I’m one of those super lame kids that hasn’t drunk or smoked yet. Well, to be fair, I did drink once. I was about 5 years old and mistook my friend’s parent’s beer for the soda while on the beach. </p>

<p>But no - I get my fix off of caffeine every day. I need two cups in the morning to function.</p>

<p>Omgosh, the same thing happened to me! I mixed up my orange juice with my dad’s alcohol beverage. It was absolutely disgusting!</p>

<p>O, you know that an apple gives you the same amount of energy that coffee does. I found that to be interested:)</p>

<p>Warts, are you saying that drugs have done nothing positive for the world?</p>
