RoyalOrleans Posted November 12, 2006 Author Posted November 12, 2006 No way. I hate incense. All of it smells awful to me. lol Musky, moldy, putrid. Can't put my finger on it but that stuff "stanks!" Couldn't agree with you more. The smell also reminds me of any Indian or Pakistani ran convenience store I have ever stepped foot in.

Moko Posted January 29, 2007 Posted January 29, 2007 I gave up smoking after about 12 years a couple of months ago, haven't missed them, haven't craved them, dunno why...have just found it really easy... I think it might be because I was told that you should give it the flick around the age of 30 because it's more probable your body will reverse the effects...I didn't say it before ya's give me shit...thats just what i was told...i'm now 33 so I reckon if I go by that advice it was time...and no dramas since stopping.

snafu Posted January 29, 2007 Posted January 29, 2007 I can detect smoke from miles away now. It's like my own little spidey-sense. Yes and ex-smokers are the worst critics when it comes to smelling smoke around them. I hate the smell of cigerettes now. And I'm the first one to give the evil glare at someone that is smoking around me. Speaking of different scents. I also HATE women who wear to much perfume. If you gotta hide something take fucking bath! It's my air your polluting. Quote "You can't stop insane people from doing insane things by passing insane laws. That's just insane!"

OmegaManiac Posted January 29, 2007 Posted January 29, 2007 I am all about quiting , in fact I enjoy quitting so much that I do it at least fourty times a day.Beat that! Quote

Kinda makes me want to pick up the nasty habit so I wont be smelling the bad things so strong anymore...

Moko Posted January 29, 2007 Posted January 29, 2007 I gag if I get stuck sitting or standing beside a smoker now, really can't handle it. Oh yeah...I forgot biggest part of my motivation for giving in my last comment but it was that my missus has had a double lung transplant and it was kinda fucken dumb for me to be smoking when she would do anything for a healthy set of lungs....she has cystic fibrosis....after smelling smokers now, I just couldn't do it again...I never smoked around her but ti made no real difference when it came to the stench of it.... and spidey sense is right...i can smell it a mile away too.

OmegaManiac Posted January 30, 2007 Posted January 30, 2007 I smoke pretty heavy, but I must admitt that I can not stand the smell of second hand smoke. I have found that the only way to save myself from that nasty smell is to light up and join the stink parade. Quote

skategreen Posted January 31, 2007 Posted January 31, 2007 Christ, we really have a lot of quitters here. Kinda surprising to me. I miss smoking. I don't miss the smell on my body, breath, clothes, hair, in the house. I don't miss constantly airing out the house. I don't miss the expense, the stigma..the looks, the comments..the niggling feelings.. I don't miss the cough, the hack, the slight stains on my teeth, the drives to the store late at night so I would have enough in the morning. I don't miss the health concerns. I don't miss having to go out-fucking-side to smoke and freezing my ass off at work/events, etc..smoking..out-fucking-side. I don't miss driving with all my windows down so my car wouldn't stink up. I don't miss saving the butts to throw out so I don't dirty my ashtray and make the car stink. I don't miss sometimes accidently burning something. I don't miss cleaning dirty ashtrays constantly. I don't miss the feeling of asking for "smoking section" in a restaurant, the cranky feeling of visiting a non-fucking-smoking house. I don't miss that shamed feeling at the counter as I handed over the money. I don't miss the Dentist Guilt, the Dr. Guilt, the daughter Guilt, the Walking Down the Street Guilt, I don't miss all the million ways every day I felt guilty for smoking. I just MISS SMOKING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 1 Quote The thought manifests as the word. The word manifests as the deed. The deed develops into habit. And the habit hardens into character. So watch the thought and its ways with care. And let it spring from love, born out of concern for all beings. - Buddha
Anna Perenna Posted February 4, 2007 Posted February 4, 2007 I just MISS SMOKING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The only thing I miss about smoking is sitting outside at night with a cup of coffee or a glass of wine, and smoking with whoever has dropped around for a visit. Unfortunately I still sometimes smoke when I go out drinking. Something about alcohol makes me want to smoke!

manicmonday Posted February 4, 2007 Posted February 4, 2007 Christ, we really have a lot of quitters here. Kinda surprising to me. I miss smoking. I miss the first cigarette in the morning with the cup of coffee, while sitting on the front porch. I miss smoking while walking around town. I miss smoking the first cigarette out a pack. i miss seeing the light of a cig in the dark hours of the night. I miss the first puff off a cig, after not smoking for awhile. I miss walking outside to smoke, seeing someone out there, and having that instant bond. It's been 10 1/2 years since I quit. Quote The dick has no conscience and the heart has no rational abilities.
Phantom Posted February 4, 2007 Posted February 4, 2007 It's been 10 1/2 years since I quit. I thought you said you were a "secret smoker," sneaking in a couple here and there? Don't you quit on me, Dearie. Join me in Nicotine Debauchery. It's the coolest. Our lungs can tar up together! Quote Blah.

RoyalOrleans Posted February 4, 2007 Author Posted February 4, 2007 The one thing I miss about smoking; I look so fucking cool doing it. Quote To be the Man, you've got to beat the Man. - Ric Flair Everybody knows I'm known for dropping science.
Phantom Posted February 4, 2007 Posted February 4, 2007 The one thing I miss about smoking; I look so fucking cool doing it. Another unfair gender difference. Men look sexy, rugged, and suave doing it. Most women look trashy. I've been told I look like a nerd. Pucker my lips too much and "Nigger Lip" it. Sorry, I missed the "how to look cool while smoking" class. Quote Blah.
Phantom Posted February 4, 2007 Posted February 4, 2007 I miss smoking while walking around town. I just went to the symphony with my grandmother Friday night and I lit up while walking downton on the way to the theater. She refused to walk with me because she considers walking with a cigarette classless. lol I'm white trash. Even my grandmother is ashamed! Edit: And she must have been really embarassed because she is handicapped and has to hold onto me when she walks. Naturally, the ciggie went out. I love my nicotine but nothing comes before my Mimi. Quote Blah.

RoyalOrleans Posted February 6, 2007 Author Posted February 6, 2007 I'm glad I quit smoking, but seriously... I hate "Born Again Smokers" who preach at other smokers. It is your body do what the fuck you want with it. Smoke, shoot up, drink, over eat, etc... just don't cry about it.

RegisteredAndEducated Posted February 6, 2007 Posted February 6, 2007 Ok, so... Today is day 37, still no smoking. Haven't smoked one, not even a puff. I hang out with some smokers, doesn't make it harder for me. I'm not sure why, but it's just not that hard. Don't get me wrong, I want one every day... and alot of you guys named reasons, but I refuse to smoke. Thanks for the congratulations before! And congratulations to everyone else that's quit. It's not the most difficult thing, and it's not the easiest thing, but it is possible. Quote Intelligent people think... how ignorance must be bliss.... idiots have it so easy, it's not fair... to have to think... WHAT IT WOULD BE LIKE TO BE AMONG THOSE FORTUNATE MASSES.....
