or smoke, butts all over the place, the smell

Chewing tobacco is much worse than smoking. People die young from that sh!t (we're talking in your 20s and 30s).

Mouth cancer is nasty...

Depends... do you want mouth/throat/stomach cancer, or do you want lung cancer? :D Both suck, luckily in Cali there is a smoking ban in public buildings... and as long i don't pick up that can of Dr Pepper thinking it IS Dr Pepper, i couldn't care less.

Smokin I think is worse for those around the offender, but then again spittin is pretty nasty too.

Could add hate "Hate Both" to poll

I'm not sure which is worse for your health, but dipping is definitely much more gross.

Dipping is much worse IMO. But, I've been around smokers my entire life, so I'm somewhat used to it. I don't smoke, tried it once and though "WTF are they thinking???".

I've seen what mouth cancer can end up doing, that stuff is NASTY man. I think it'd be better to hack up a lung than to lose half your jaw. Either way it's still going to stink.

They both suck, but I would rather hang around somebody who dips and keeps it clean rather than a smoker.

Smoking pollutes the air and forces others to suffer directy from your habit, you can chew/dip discreetly so I will say smoking is worse....from the perspective of the poeple in the vicinity. I am allergic to smoke, I have no choice in that, but people have the choice to light up and pollute the air EVERYONE is breathing.

I wonder that myself. Way too many people smoke where I live, I dont hang out at some of my friends houses cause they smoke indoors and it stinks.

Atleast with chew you only slowly kill yourself off.

With smoking you screw everyone around you as well.

Both nasty habits in my opinion. Chew is even nastier, always having to spit into a cup or on the ground...

I started smoking when I drank, for the buzz, and the more you smoke you get less and less of a buzz until your "addicted" and the buzz dissapears.

I do not see how a smoker is an "offender." I have no problem smoking outside, but it seems that if we wanted to be fair about it we would create a dress code for fat people and force them to diet. Maybe tax the fat people more on food items too.

I forgot to add: From my personal experience both dipping and smoking are bad.

How is a smoker NOT an "offender"? If I am outside near you and you are smoking and I inhale your 2nd hand smoke, are you not harming me? Fat people walking around outside in no way cause harm to you that could kill you. 2nd hand smoke kills, 2nd hand fat...not so much.

I think both smoking and dipping are nasty habits.

When I smoke I make a conscience effort to blow the smoke away from people, because I know how everyone loves the smell. I imagine that if you are walking out side and get a wif of my smoke that breathing in the pollution of a city all day would be much worse for you, depending on where you live of course. And when they say smoking kills it is certianly not the case, there was a woman in France that live to be 120 something and smoked since she was 16. lol.

The last job I worked one my bosses always had a wad full of that sh!t in his mouth and a cup full of his spit on his desk. He pretty young too (early 30s). I hated watching that guy chew/spitchew/spitchew/spitchew/spitchew/spitchew/spitchew/spitchew/spitchew all day.

smoking is worse by far. How many people have died of smoking related deaths compared to smokeless? I don't know of anyone to have died of dipping, but smoking is another story.

there's at least some "coolness" factor that goes along with smoking (even if stupid people think so)

chew is just pure trash activity.
