Especially in today's society when people are forced to go outside to smoke. And really, who doesn't like that scene at the beginning of Fellowship of the ring when Gandalf and Bilbo are smoking together. I don't smoke...but I have no problem with people that do. It's their vice, and everybody has a vice. Some people smoke, some people drink, some people eat. I'd much rather hang around someone that smokes too much, than someone that drinks too much - especially if they drive. And I'm in agreement that those Truth ads are ridiculous. Some of them actually make me want to go smoke a cigarette just to piss the people in them off. Also I guess it depends on what they're smoking...because there is not a lot of things I like better than the smell of a nice pipe. (no...not a bowl, an actual pipe with tobacco) | | Static Link |

| Posted by: Double-Oh-Zero at July 9, 2008, 5:00 pm | | Topic: Celebrities who Smoke Cigarettes: Yay or Nay? Forum: JoBlo | | I don't smoke myself, but because my parents - and more than a handful of other relatives - smoked for as long as I can remember (although my mum finally quit a few years ago), I don't condemn those who choose to (aside from some gentle ribbing every now and then), nor do I put myself on a pedestal for being a non-smoker. It's not necessarily a turn-off for me, either; I'd rather date a down-to-earth girl who happens to smoke as opposed to an uptight, health-nut bitch who throws a hissy fit and acts holier-than-thou if someone nearby lights up a cigarette. | | Static Link |
| Posted by: DRbeauty at July 9, 2008, 4:27 pm | | Topic: Celebrities who Smoke Cigarettes: Yay or Nay? Forum: JoBlo | | I quit smoking a few days ago because I'm not allowed to at work. I can see how smoking is a turnoff to people but everyone always used to tell me that they didn't know I smoked. I never smoked that heavily, at the most I smoked 1/2 a pack, and those would be the times where I would get drunk. Anyways I'm glad that I'm quiting for health reasons but boy would some people piss me off! "You smoke?", followed by a bitchy look of disgust. Yeah so what? Put down the french fries, then can come talk to me. People are such hypocrites. Heart disease is the leading cause of death in this country. | | Static Link |

All I'm saying is that the Truth people don't have a sinister agenda or anything so if they want to warn people about smoking they should. Since almost everyone I know is a smoker it isn't like their message, even when they lie, is getting across that well. | | Static Link |
| Posted by: xseanymacx at July 9, 2008, 10:40 am | | Topic: Celebrities who Smoke Cigarettes: Yay or Nay? Forum: JoBlo | | No, in that particular one, what they said was not fucking true. Tobacco companies do no proclaim that Lights & Ultra Lights have less nicotine. If they're going to shove these commercials down our throats, I want them to be at least true. And its up to parents to stop their children from smoking, not over zealous campaigners. And no, I doubt my family members would think the same if I was attempting to stop them from eating fast food everyday. If my parents whole-heartedly ask me to quit smoking, I will. But the fact is, I'm 21. I drink and smoke all the time, am having a blast in college with good grades, and am loving life. I don't think I'll be a smoker after college. But its bad enough everyone I care about hates it, I don't need total fucking strangers acting like pricks like I'm worthless because I smoke. People just need to deal with their own fucking business. | | Static Link |

Never smoke in my car or in the house. Can’t stand the smokers who are sitting in there car with the window up or at home on the couch puffing away and when they open the door that’s all you smell.

Forum: JoBlo | | Come from a family of smokers (Winston 100's and Newports primarily) but I never picked up the habit. Don't like it or the lasting effects. Personally, if you smoke, I ain't knockin' ya. I don't think it's good for you and anyone around you that emulates you might copy your actions, BUT who are we to say "you're a star! you shouldn't smoke! kids are watching!" They were smoking before they hit it big and now, it's a habit. A tough one to kick, as I understand. I don't think it's healthy or cool, but I'm just Rusty. I have no right to tell any celebrity to stop puffing. If they decide to quit for their own health or to change that image, then that's cool. | | Static Link |
