i used to smoke lucky strikes, they were bad ass. i was told by someone ciggarette smoking raises your metabolism or something causes u to shit
-
Cigarete Poop?
-
I've heard Lucky Strikes were pretty good, but never had the chance to try one. I dont even see them at any places I buy from. I guess they are pretty hard to find.

So thats probrably why smoking helps you loose weight ^^ more reson to smoke lots
-
Your're better off eating whole grain bread, if you want to keep your weight down by keeping the crap out of you.
-
Probrably, I know smokings a bad habbit but I dont want to quit. I keep worrying about getting addicted tho.
-
I dont want to quit.On the one hand you're worrying about what your life will be like decades into the future, and on the other hand you're doing something that will almost certainly f*ck up your life in the future. Think about it. Not to mention the cost in dollars/pounds.In the U.S., there is a strong correlation between less education and more smoking. If you want to live in the U.S., smoking won't get you very far.> I keep worrying about getting addicted tho.Yeah, I'm sure you could stop any time you want, but you just don't want to. What makes you think that you're not already addicted, or won't be soon?
-
I just like the buzz and calming effects. I'm not reliant on it which is why I could quit. I just have no reason to at the present time. They are expensive I just dont think of it as a waste of money. Its just as a waste of money buying a can of coke if you think of it like that. It will fuck up my life but I dont plan on doing it forever.>In the U.S., there is a strong correlation between less education and more smoking. If you want to live in the U.S., smoking won't get you very far.Are you implying smoking cigaretes reduces the amount of education your likly to get? I dont quite grasp the connection :S.

Are you familiar with the word "rationalization"?> Its just as a waste of money buying a can of coke if you think of it like that. It will fuck up my life but I dont plan on doing it forever.So Coke will make you fat and harm your teeth, and cigarettes will screw up a lot of other things. So what is your point? If you waste money on other things, how does that justify wasting a lot of money on cigarettes? You'd have to drink a lot of Coke to spend as much money as a couple of packs of cigarettes cost.>> In the U.S., there is a strong correlation between less education and more smoking.

I dont quite grasp the connectionNo, people who are uneducated tend to smoke more. It's a bigger part of their culture, and they're more ignorant of smoking's bad effects. Go to a bar in a poor neighboorhood and the air may be blue with smoke. Go to a college hangout, and smokers will be few and far between. It's gotten to the point here that if you smoke, people will automatically get the idea that you're less educated or intelligent. I'm not saying that that's fair, but that's the way it is. Think of it as a Cockney accent.

Thats kinda lame. Everyone smokes here, I'm my college about 50% of my computer class smokes and its a pretty high level course. My one friend is a head cheff at his work and is taking the corse I am on to change his line of work hes certainly not uneducated, one of the smartest people I know. I think thats a rather dumb steriotype just like saying every black persons lazy or every jew is careful with money.>> Its just as a waste of money buying a can of coke if you think of it like that.

You'd have to drink a lot of Coke to spend as much money as a couple of packs of cigarettes cost.No I was implying that same with cigaretes you enjoy it then its gone, a pack of cigaretes last me a week unless I go out drinking so I dont spend much on them. I enjoy each one and would not class it as a waste of money.>> I just like the buzz and calming effects. I'm not reliant on it which is why I could quit.

Its not somthing I do to be "cool" nearly everyone smokes here so its not classed as cool or rebelious like it is out there. I just enjoy the effects of it and it burns time when I'm bored and sitting around waiting for the bus etc ^^.

Don't even bother with seat belts. Be a conformist. You want to be your own person and have a healthier later life? Then don't do those things. You want to live in the U.S. and not look low class and ignorant? Then don't smoke.Smoking versus education: It's a fact, not a prejudice. Cigarette Smoking Among Adults --- United States, 2002:In reply to:Educational attainment has been associated consistently with adult smoking prevalence since 1983 (Figure 2). By education level, smoking prevalence was highest among adults who had earned a General Educational Development diploma (42.3%) and lowest among those with graduate degrees (7.2%).You will be looked down on if you smoke in the U.S. If you have a "fuck you" attitude and you just don't care, that's fine. But do it with open eyes.> Yes I am but if people didnt like the buzz and calming effects do you think anyone would smoke?I'm sure they like it just fine. Why do you think people smoke crack? The reason most keep smoking, though, is because they are addicted.> Its not somthing I do to be "cool" nearly everyone smokes here so its not classed as cool or rebelious like it is out there.On the contrary, it's a very conformist thing to do where you live.> I just enjoy the effects of it and it burns time when I'm bored and sitting around waiting for the bus etc ^^.It's a destructive habit in the long run. You have to decide how much it's worth.

Wahahahahahaha meat pies? I havnt laughed so hard all night. Yeah youre right I'm not dissagreeing with you, I know its bad for me but I just dont care.>You live in the U.K.? Fine, then smoke, binge drink, and eat meat pies every day. Don't even bother with seat belts. Be a conformist. You want to be your own person and have a healthier later life? Then don't do those things. You want to live in the U.S. and not look low class and ignorant? Then don't smoke.1 Its the law in england to wear seatbelts and fines are imposed of 50pounds or more.2. I dont even know of any "meat pie" shops around me except the supermarket, nore do I like meat pies.3. There is a differance between social and binge drinking.4. I dont want to live in the USA, Americans have really been pissing me off these past few weeks and did when I was there. Americans dont realise there is a world outside america and are very ignorant in my opinion. ESPECIALY in a place like Utah. I think the majority of americans are ignorant and up their arse. My American friend (but not anymore) had the cheak to call me a bum and said my life was going nowhere when I am in full time college and got grades that I was REALY proud of getting and worked hard to do (2 passes and the rest merrits ) he said that the british education was shit and i wasnt coming out with a good qualification and would be a bum forever. Im taking the college course so I can go to uni and come out with a really good qualification in computer networking and programing. Most people I have met out there are completely Zenophobic and ignorant. >I'm sure they like it just fine. Why do you think people smoke crack? The reason most keep smoking, though, is because they are addicted.I do agree that most people keep smoking because theyre addicted. But I guess I wont truely know if I'm addicted unless i try and stop which I dont want to do yet.>You will be looked down on if you smoke in the U.S. If you have a "fuck you" attitude and you just don't care, that's fine. But do it with open eyes.I'm already looked down on by most of socioty because I am a punk. Aparently because I have a mohawk I'm lazy and mug old women and generaly am a horriable person. None of which is true. But it is fine by me because I figure is people are that shallow minded and judgemental I dont want to know them anyway. The only problem that this creates if finding a job, Im not lazy and want to work but people judge me before they know me. I dont want to change. How I look is a part of me and how I feel comfertable but people just use it as another form of discrimination and a reason to treat me like shit... and people wonder I'm so angry all the time and hate people. (kinda went off on a rant there) Socioty hates me already smoking will just make me die sooner if I continue the habbit for too long

Its quite possible to smoke and not become addicted.
I've smoked for months at a time, then just stopped because I got bored with it. I can buy a pack, smoke it, then not smoke for 2 months. I only know a few people like me.. so I guess its rare.

In reply to: I dont want to live in the USA...I think the majority of americans are ignorant and up their arseOK, then. Before your trip you said something about wanting to live in the U.S. Not anymore, apparently.I don't think Utah is the best place for a punk guy to be. Certain areas of New York, Boston, San Francisco, L.A., etc. would be a much better choice.I was making a point with the seat belt and meat pie thing; it wasn't meant to be a legal argument. The point is that if you want to do things that harm your body in the long run, it's your privilege. Just make sure you're doing it with your eyes wide open.In reply to:But I guess I wont truely know if I'm addicted unless i try and stop which I dont want to do yet.I don't think the odds are on your side. And there's a real downside if it turns out that you are addicted.In reply to:I'm already looked down on by most of socioty because I am a punk. Aparently because I have a mohawk I'm lazy and mug old women and generaly am a horriable person. None of which is true. But it is fine by me because I figure is people are that shallow minded and judgemental I dont want to know them anyway. The only problem that this creates if finding a job...No problem with that. You understand that by expressing yourself the way you do, your life will be more difficult. If you think expressing your true self is more important than conforming in order to make it easier to get a job, etc., then so be it.In reply to:and people wonder I'm so angry all the time and hate people.There's a lot about society to be angry about. It often has trouble accepting differences among people. But sometimes you have to wonder what motivates a "Fuck you, society! Eat my shorts!" attitude.In reply to:Socioty hates me already smoking will just make me die sooner if I continue the habbit for too longI really don't think society gives two shits about you or me or anyone who isn't a celebrity. The problem with dying from smoking is that it's often a lingering, expensive death.

Its quite possible to smoke and not become addicted. FaBMX, you're an extraodinary person, and anything is possible. There are people who've lived after getting shot with a clip of bullets. But it's not recommended.There is a big downside if you do get addicted, and the millions of people who are addicted and having a horrible time quitting are not faking it.
-
But sometimes you have to wonder what motivates a "Fuck you, society! Eat my shorts!" attitude.Its just because people are such ass holes. After a while you start becoming bitter towards everyone and everything and just decide to fuck shit up. Go out get drunk and kick shit into people who are not like you to see how they like a taste of their own medicene. Vandalise government property to see how those bastards like to be fucked over. Dont have a job because you dont want to contribute the the fucked up socioty you hate. I can understand why people lead this way of life but its not the way of life I would want to lead. Mostly you just end up hurting yourself because socioty deosnt care if you rebel. One person alone cant change the world with petty acts of vandalism... The only people who deserve to get beat up are Chavs, they are vile bastards and horriable people.
-
Chavs?
-
http://chavscum.co.uk/culture.phphttp://chavscum.co.uk/howto.phpThese emails that they sent in mocking the site will give you a good idea of what twats they arehttp://chavscum.co.uk/whattheysay.phpBasicaly chavs socioty revolves around beating weaker people up, drinking, drugs and sex with strange desiesed women. If a chav starts a fight on you they will have to have 5 of thier friends to help jump you. Chavs are the most stupid vile people I have ever met and I take great pride in making their lives miserable. Only the other day my friend who is a girl was jumped by 20 chavs half of which were guys and they all kicked her in, she didnt even say anything to them.

@Fab: Yeah, Luckys are really good, unfortunately the only place I've seen them sold are in germany... even though our watertower downtown has the Lucky Strike logo on it... so maybe they seel them there? I dunno =/@Steve: Didn't really read all your posts here... but I'm with homicidal on the whole "smoking but not addicted" thing. When summer break started I quit for the whole break, which was 3 months or so. Then I started back up. I could quit right now if I wanted too, but like homicidal, I have no reason to quit. And you already know I wouldn't give a shit if it killed me faster or anything.@Homicidal: So you're judging the entire US because of some people in a single state and some idiotic "friend" you have? That's pretty shitty man.

Its probrably because I was in morman white trash Utah. Im sure in citys its alot better. Just in general people were ass holes in utah. Also not being able to buy cigaretes until youre 19 and not being able to drink until your 21's pretty shit. I noticed alot of kids in utah turned to drug abuse because they couldt get their hands on alcohol. People are gunna get fucked up one way or another. I think the drinking age being so high is pathetic. But anyway I would get asked dumb questions completely seriously like "do you live in a castle" or "Does everyone in England have an accent". Also aparently in England us folks drink tea and eat crumpets all day live in fairytale land with pixies where gumdrop rainbows rule the land with thier powerful fists of muliticolored justice. The majority of people who I talked to in utah were complete morons when it came to a culture other than their own fucked up religion revolved socioty, when it came to their religion their views were twisted and contradicted each other and were wrong. They cant even get their own religion right and live by false docterine they belive to be the truth. They fucked up my whole view on God and religion and made me think I was going to hell for a long time until I talking to my mom a few nights ago who cleared everything up. All you have to be is a good person to go to heaven, youre not going to hell for drinking and smoking or any of that other bull shit they all preach. People would tell their kids they couldnt be friends with me because I had a mohawk and give me dirty looks because I had a cigarete in my mouth. They all live sheltered fucked up lives, its most likly this is just Utah though because I have only lived in one state (the morman state *shudder) so wont generalise the whole of america.

I knew a mormon girl... She said she wanted to move to England because everything is so perfect over there and she could find a prince. Im glad she is gone. She was kind of confused.
