Posted: 22:46 - 06 Dec 2007 Post subject: This smoking ban hoo-ha |
|
|
Was browsing this on the SV owners forum. Something grabbed my attention with both hands and shook it around a bit.
There is one argument non smokers come up with a lot, along the lines of passive smoking-
"I DURNT WAHNT YUR SEKEND HANT CANCA!1 LOL" and so on, you know what i mean.
Someone posted an image of a smokers lung saying something along the lines of
"I RLY DWNT WANT MY LOUNGES TO ENT UP LYK URS HAHA!"
This is the sort of twat that shows off the comparison
https://www.maricopa.gov/Public_Health/Community/images/mary_reily.jpg
Now, don't get me wrong here, I smoke. Hard as that was to guess. And it's fair to say that neither of those lungs is really ever going to give me an erection.
I have quit smoking before, around a year ago but took it up again after 6 months because i'm fucking manly.
In that time I had quit, and even now to be honest, I can honestly say that I didn't/dont give a shit what my lungs will eventually look like (or any other smoking related conundrum). I can't see them, neither can you.
It's not like lungs are a T-shirt with "Kill Jews" or "I HATE NIGGERS" written on it are they? Constantly on display causing offence to everyone you come accross.
I forget where i'm going with this.
In summary, if you're a hardcore anti-smoker, you're as bad (in my books) as someone in peta, green peace or similar organisations. ____________________ Sahf East Winnah 4LYF

Dunno about an erection, but the one on the right would go down well with some peppercorn sauce, chunky chips and a bowl of fried onion rings ____________________ Current: CB500 Previous: CB100N, CB250RS, XJ900F, GT550, GPZ750R/1000RX, AJS M16, R100RT, Enfield Bullet

Don't believe the hype. I stopped smoking a month ago and I feel absolutely no different (other than I could go a fag).
I have not noticed any appreciable improvement in my sense of smell or taste. I still wake up in the morning feeling like something has died in my mouth (I think this is an effect of cider rather than tobacco).
I don't feel like I am breathing any more easily, I cough just as much as I ever did (ie. not a lot). I do not feel fitter, more awake or any of that shit.
When I pick up clothes I was still wearing when I did smoke, I do not find the smell at all offensive, in fact it is rather aromatic because I didn't smoke tobacco that stinks.
In other words, I have not found any readily discernable positive effects of stopping smoking.
Oh yeah. I felt quite ill when I was using nicotine patches, like I was being poisoned. This feeling stopped within a couple of hours of taking them off. ____________________ “Rule one: Always stick around for one more drink. That's when things happen.

I'm not really sure what the point you are trying to make is but I just wanna say I'm glad of the ban because I personally don't want my lungs to look remotely like that because of someone else smoking. If I was smoking then it'd be my fault but I don't smoke cause.. smokings bad m'kay. ____________________ Past: 55 Sym Jet, 91 ZZR250, 03 NSR125R. Present: 97 ER-5.

Way back when I was a lad they used to show us knackered lungs in biology class. It didn't put me off smoking though as I had other far more pressing issues than the threat of an early death. However, after many years of to-ing and fro-ing (3 on, 2 off, 5 on, 7 off, 6 on, and currently 5 off the fags) I think I've finally got it in perspective and no longer smoke or are bothered by it. In general I think the ban is a good thing, but I do think the government's pressure via the NHS encouraging people to quit is a bit hypocritical. If they were serious they'd ban it, but in truth the cost to the economy would be huge, so they won't and in the mean-time we have to endure all this blather. ____________________ My claim to fame: Austin Vince nicked my pen... |

The woman in that picture looks really like the lunatic feline medicine professor that taught me at college.

I was only joking about it making your penis shrink.
But its kind of true, smoking can damage the blood vessels, nicotine narrows the arteries that lead to the penis,so reducing blood flow and the pressure of blood in the penis = Mr Floopy ____________________ Yamaha FZR400RR 3tj

There wasn't really much of a point to my rant, was just a little drunken rambling.
What more's to say, i'v started a good debate. A smoker made a good debate.

Perhaps this is the wrong attitude but it's my opinion and we are all entitled to them eh? Either way lets give it a shot and either I will get flamed or agreed with
I smoke, have no real reason, or want to give up. I Know that eventually I may end up with a fatal disease but I can 'sort of' justify it if thats the right words to use.
It is no surprise and a well known fact of life. I am going to die. No matter how soon or late it will be.
I ride a bike every day, now if my own stupidity or a cager doesnt kill me first then maybe cancer will. If it doesnt then old age definately will.
Since the smoking ban I am no longer passing my smoke over to anyone else (not that I was anyway). I enjoy it in the confines of my own home. If you come round for a coffee and dont smoke/ dont like it then dont come round.
I do smoke outside but it's not like I chase non smokers around the park blowing smoke in their faces.
If a smoking ban is what the government see's fit to make the population happy then so be it. It doesnt affect me in the slightest due to working environments anyway as I never could smoke there. As for the pub, they have pretty much all put outside heaters and gazebo's up now to draw the smokers back to the pub. ____________________ Check out our tackle shop on Facebook:

Moving swiftly on...
As a person who works in an office owned by a couple of smokers who used to allow smoking inside from 5:30pm I can honestly say I'm glad to be able to go home from work not smelling like I've been clubbing. |
