SMOKERS
"I really don’t like people who smoke. I find that people that smoke have a stench of a dirty ashtray even more so when they start talking. I find most of them to be rude. They never seam to ask “Do you mind if I smoke?” they just light up. And they treat the whole world as their own personal ashtray."
Well, Repo-Girl you some what nailed it. Lets take this topic all the way shell we.
Let me start by saying that you are right about smokers.
Smokers are RUDE, NASTY, DISGUSTING people! Oh and not lets forget STUPID!!!!!!!!!
Smoking does kill people. If your children and spouse are always coughing and are sick. IT'S YOUR FALT DUMBASS! Them breathing in your second hand smoke daily is weakening their immune system.
How Smoking Affects Your Health
There are no physical reasons to start smoking. The body doesn't need tobacco the way it needs food, water, sleep, and exercise. In fact, many of the chemicals in cigarettes, like nicotine and cyanide, are actually poisons that can kill in high enough doses.
The body is smart. It goes on the defense when it's being poisoned. For this reason, many people find it takes several tries to get started smoking: First-time smokers often feel pain or burning in the throat and lungs, and some people feel sick or even throw up the first few times they try tobacco.
The consequences of this poisoning happen gradually. Over the long term, smoking leads people to develop health problems like cancer, emphysema (breakdown of lung tissue), organ damage, and heart disease. These diseases limit a person's ability to be normally active — and can be fatal. Each time a smoker lights up, that single cigarette takes about 5 to 20 minutes off the person's life.

Smokers not only develop wrinkles and yellow teeth, they also lose bone density, which increases their risk of osteoporosis (pronounced: ahs-tee-o-puh-row-sus), a condition that causes older people to become bent over and their bones to break more easily. Smokers also tend to be less active than nonsmokers because smoking affects lung power.
Smoking can also cause fertility problems and can impact sexual health in both men and women. Girls who are on the pill or other hormone-based methods of birth control (like the patch or the ring) increase their risk of serious health problems, such as heart attacks, if they smoke.
The consequences of smoking may seem very far off, but long-term health problems aren't the only hazard of smoking. Nicotine and the other toxins in cigarettes, cigars, and pipes can affect a person's body quickly, which means that teen smokers experience many of these problems:
Bad skin. Because smoking restricts blood vessels, it can prevent oxygen and nutrients from getting to the skin — which is why smokers often appear pale and unhealthy. An Italian study also linked smoking to an increased risk of getting a type of skin rash called psoriasis.
Bad breath. Cigarettes leave smokers with a condition called halitosis, or persistent bad breath.
Bad-smelling clothes and hair. The smell of stale smoke tends to linger — not just on people's clothing, but on their hair, furniture, and cars. And it's often hard to get the smell of smoke out.
Reduced athletic performance. People who smoke usually can't compete with nonsmoking peers because the physical effects of smoking (like rapid heartbeat, decreased circulation, and shortness of breath) impair sports performance.
Greater risk of injury and slower healing time. Smoking affects the body's ability to produce collagen, so common sports injuries, such as damage to tendons and ligaments, will heal more slowly in smokers than nonsmokers.
Increased risk of illness. Studies show that smokers get more colds, flu, bronchitis, and pneumonia than nonsmokers. And people with certain health conditions, like asthma, become more sick if they smoke (and often if they're just around people who smoke). Because teens who smoke as a way to manage weight often light up instead of eating, their bodies lack the nutrients they need to grow, develop, and fight off illness properly.
Kicking Butts and Staying Smoke Free
All forms of tobacco — cigarettes, pipes, cigars, and smokeless tobacco — are hazardous. It doesn't help to substitute products that seem like they're better for you than regular cigarettes, such as filtered or low-tar cigarettes.
The only thing that really helps a person avoid the problems associated with smoking is staying smoke free. This isn't always easy, especially if everyone around you is smoking and offering you cigarettes. It may help to have your reasons for not smoking ready for times you may feel the pressure, such as "I just don't like it" or "I want to stay in shape for soccer" (or football, basketball, or other sport).
The good news for people who don't smoke or who want to quit is that studies show that the number of teens who smoke has dropped dramatically. Today, about 23% of high school students smoke.
STUPID:Knowing all these facts and more you still choose to smoke makes your and IDIOT!
I can't stress enough about how bad you smell. You smell like a dirty ash try. You really do.
You can shower and bath yourself in perfume all you want. YOU STILL STINK!
Do you know how bad you really smell and you just don't care or are you absolutely clueless and think you smell just fine?
Think about the other members in your house that HATE the way they smell because of YOU.
Take the time to smell your child's hair. You might be surprised how bad they stink.
My father was a smoker. I have been their. Getting dropped of at school with my hair still wet from the shower I just had and the kids telling me how bad I stink STOP SMOKING.
RUDE: I have never met a smoker who asks DO YOU MIND IF I SMOKE. No, you ass holes just light up.
You don't care if you are in someone else home or vehicle.
And when you done, you throw your butt on the ground like to whole world is your ashtray.
When you go to a business take the time to look at the ground around you. IT LOOKS LIKE HELL.
CAN YOU READ? Pretending not to see that non-smoking sign and smoking anyway, just proves my theory. YOUR STUPID.
NEWS FLASH: Removing the non-smoking signs, rolling down or opening a window and air fresheners DON'T WORK DUMBASS!
Get real. Stop and add up the amount of money that is wasted every day. Times that by a month and then by a year. Don't be surprised if its in the thousands.
QUIET SMOKING
