    When is smoking a crime, boys?

    I'm in the process of quitting, but why do you pick on smokers?

    Don't give me that my girlfriend died of cancer stuff... unless she died of cancer from smoking!

    Well, my grandma has emphysema, and can barely walk 20 feet without gasping for air. I can't see how that would be in any way a good thing.

    Mak's post on the originating thread was just a cute tongue-in-cheek comment. The topic was intended to focus upon observing, not smoking. I don't understand the reason for your reaction.

    OT comments split.

    Edit: removed a misplaced "from"

    Was that a joke? My father talked that way too, between hacks. I've mentioned before what smoking did to my father and his father. My grandfather was in bed on an oxygen tank for 8 years before he died, much of that time in a VA hospital. I never knew him. My father had to take medical retirement because of massive emphysema. He died when I was 13.

    If you possibly can, get off that horrible stuff.

    I say there is an invisible elf in my backyard. How do you prove that I am wrong?

    Dear Candy,

    You say, you are in the process of quiting. Does that mean you are thinking about it, or exually don't smoke at the moment? From experience I can tell, it takes about three days untill your mind comes to rest. Try to drink a lot of water and sleep a lot. After that it takes a strong will. After three months there will be moments you don't think about cigarettes.
    I quitted for 1.5 years. Then I had to go away for a few months to a far and strange country and I started my bad habit again. I still regret that.

    Good Luck

    Ok

    I'd say smoking is a crime if you are under 18 or force it upon others(via second hand smoke).

    Here is what makes me angry. I did not start this thread. I am trying to stop smoking and this is not helping.

    That's great

    I can't imagine how hard it is, and I wish you the best of luck.

    I agree- what I was saying was that the only way smoking is a crime I'd say is if "you are under 18 or force it upon others(via second hand smoke)." or otherwise, and this technicly isn't an actuall crime...




    I think you may be just crabby because your tring to quit.

    Oh, I forget to mention, failure is not an option.
    You will give a bad example to people who visit this board.
    But really, quitting is not as hard as you think it is.
    May the force be with you.

    I'd give you a real hug, but I don't have an 875 mile reach.
