Believe it or not, I 100% agree with you - responsible establishments at least have decent ash-trays outside, but those which don't are disgusting to walk past.

One good thing about the smoking ban in pubs though is that I no longer smell like an ash-tray when I get home...



Hmmm - reading this thread has given me an idea... see you in 5 minutes


Well, oddly enough, if you're going to smoke it is actually good for you to be forced outside where you can get some fresh air in your lungs, too. Big smile

Depends on whether you live in any of these places or not http://www.livescience.com/environment/061018_polluted_places.html. In which case you will die twice as fast

Smoked for 25 years, then after a particularly bad case of pneumonia which had me on my back for three weeks doctor hinted I might want to quit.  Which I did, though I still enjoy a jawful of Copenhagen or a fine cigar now and then.   Nectar of the gods, that nicotine.

I like rolling tobacco much more than cigarettes. I think the taste is far superior!
 
I don't smoke much, though. Just every once in a while, sometimes 2-3 a day, sometimes none in a week. I do smoke cigars sometimes, but I never inhale them.

You're not supposed to aren't you? It hurts otherwise

And yes, roling tobacco is far superois in every way. Economically as well as taste. I'm a Golden Virginia fan myself

By the way, does anyone notice - cigarettes become worse and worse?
I remember back then, in the 90s, cigarettes of different manufacturers (Winston, Marlboro, L&M, Kent and others) had different tastes. Now all of them are almost similar, and all are worse than 10 - 15 years ago.
Am I wrong?

I'm not a smoker, but I'm an on-and-off user of snus, the proud Swedish tobacco product. A lot better than cigarettes when it comes to health, but bad nonetheless. Quitting slowly, but steady.

on a daily basis, 7-10 on average, 2-3 L's on average, so that's a lot of smoke.

i tried quitting a couple of times, the best was going a week and a half summer 07, but havent officially quit yet. been looking into it recently, it's especially hurting my wallet!

Tried it as a young teen, got really sick, never did it since. Dead
 
Disgusting, silly, pointless, poisonous, expensive, smelly and polluting habit. Why do almost all smokers feel they are free to litter everywhere, with their discarded toxic butts? Angry

hey...  sometimes you have to take it where you can get it.....who said men can't judge butts ...  I've had many men complement me on mine.  In fact just the other week at the bar.. I was having some of the toxic type..some chap called Winston...some guy came up to me....I think he wanted some of mine.  Told me mine looked pretty tasty and asked if he could have some..
