Default [OT] Do you smoke?

Since we've been accused of wearing mullets, smoking and being trash, I thought I'd take a poll.

On edit:
Ok, ok, I meant tobacco! :lol:

Only when I accidentally touch the positive and negative battery terminals at the same time.

Saw the actual lungs of a dead smoker - charcaol is cleaner - that got me to stop!

Been a non-smoker for 16 years now. I have to admit that 3 or 4 years ago I had a few in a bar in Kaoshung whle drinking with with the 'waitresses' . Seems like I always do crazy things when I visit the Orient. Drank too much wiskey in a bar in Tokyo one night and paid for that for several days. Come to think of it, it must have something to do with being out of country. Same thing happened in Calgary after meeting a nice couple that fed me all the pints I could drink. :cheers:

A better qustion might be "does anyone smoke in their Vette." I've seen this alot, and I can't believe it. If people knew how nasty their cars smelled to nonsmokers they wouldn't smoke in their car. Not only that, but it's just sarcoligious (spelling??) to smoke in a Vette. :nono:

Tried it once when I was a teenager. Got dizzy and threw the thing away. Tried coffee once, hated it, never tried it again. Sure glad my first experience with sex went OK or I might have given up on that too :) :) :)

So far so good. I have managed to keep smoke free since the summer.

On the other hand, I am now addicted to adrenaline, coffee, corvettes, the gym...

Here's to addictions!!!

I quit over a year and a half ago but with this new job I find myself chewing on my pens and wanting a smoke real bad sometimes. :smash:

Quit about 8 yrs ago, we didn't want to smoke around our newborn and were pretty successful until she started walking :lol: Found ourself in the garage one day to be away from her and realized how nuts that was. Tried 3 or 4 times but wasn't truly successful until we went to a bull roast and I smoked a lot that night and drank WAY too many drafts :U
I actually tried one 2 days later... No thanks! Now if I could just drop the 20 lbs I gained :mad

Nope, I have never been an avid smoker, nor do I intend to be. For some odd reason I enjoy breathing. However my girlfriend smokes...she's on her 5th day without a cigarette! (she's quiting for me :D ).
