I concur with the OP 100%. No matter how you turn it, smokers and everything they own reek of smoking stench. Some other people stink for various other reasons (BO, whatever), but smokers *always* stink.

I quit smoking over 2 years ago. Now others' smoking makes me repulsed, nauseated, and loss of breath. Disgusting habit.

I've been clean for three years and when some douchebag lights up in a closed space, I want to flatten his nose. Convention being what it is I usually leave.

It took a huge effort to quit and now you want to shit in my air?? FFUUU!

You guys are just the typical whining non-smokers that I hate. I didn't smoke until I was 19 and never had a problem with smokers, being at smokers houses, etc. Sure it isn't the most pleasant smell in the world but it isn't THAT bad. I'll take a girl that smokes over a girl with a BO problem any day.

No, it IS that bad.

A girl with BO can take a shower. A girl who smokes is most likely addicted and can't just take a shower to make it go away.
Btw, how many girls do you hang out with who have BO?

zane, really, you know the difference. also, smoking ages you. i saw your last pics you posted here. you look ten years older than you are. a few beers isn't making anyone wrinkled and rode hard looking.

Do you smoke? If you do/have you must know how hard it is to quit. It's pretty awesome to me that he has been smoke free for 3 years. You can say whatever you want about THOSE ex-smokers but until you are in their place keep your mouth shut!!!

I used to smoke, and I still love the way tobacco smells. Douchy whining to help reinforce your willpower to stay quit is...well... Douchy.
 
little late...smoking is fine, i dont care usually, as long as the person smoking around me isnt puffing smoke in my general direction. Shit gets me all nauseous

*i dont smoke

Shocking that the people defending that putrid smell are most likely smokers themselves. Anyone who sincerely enjoys that stench needs their head checked.

I don't mind the smell of smoke, but I cannot stand the smell of Coffee. And Coffee breath's 10x times more putrid than cigarette breath is.

Coffee breath's pretty bad, but easily fixed with a tooth brush and tooth paste and maybe a Tic Tac. Smoking lingers and reeks. Its absolutely disgusting and people who smoke should only do it on their own property or inside their own house. Not in public buildings, parks, streets, or establishments open to the public.

depends how much your around it. when i was younger and was around it more and went to friends who smoked houses more often, i didnt pay much attention to it....but now that i have very, very rarly been to a smokers house within several years...oh god, its really horrible, like i'm much more sensitive to it now. its cause i'm around more non smokers now than i was before and its kinda sickening to me now
 
i would like to see the government start adding something to cigarettes that makes you violently ill after smoking them. also, i would like to see workplaces institute a rule that this is not an excuse to go home early.

enjoy your cancer sticks then, cretins.
 
Yes, smoking cigs makes you smell like an old, used ashtray. And no, smokers will NEVER realize this, until they themselves quit (just like I didn't realize, for almost 2 dozen years, until I quit 6 years ago). And yes, both sides will present their arguments, and think the others are (insert your favorite insult here) for thinking the way they do.

Personally, I encourage smokers these days. I figure the more they smoke, the quicker they're going to DIE, and the more social security money there is for the rest of us! WIN!! :whiste:
 
Looks like we have a few sensitive smokers here 🙂

I'm in the "smokers smell disgusting" crowd. I was even commenting to my wife last night how pathetic it was to see you dependent ashtrays shivering your asses outside desperately trying to get that sucker lit when it's 15 degrees and the wind is gusting at 30 miles per hour. It's a shame there isn't a mirror close by so you could witness the scene for yourselves. It's hilarious and depressing all at once, and I know of one guy who quit cold turkey when he saw his reflection in a window while pathetically going through the motions above.

I grew up in a smokers' household, and when I moved out I vowed never to live with a smoker. I dismissed a chick or two in college when I found out they smoked. Not only do I see it as a sign of weakness (like alcoholism), but it's just. fucking. disgusting. You wreak. Your clothes wreak. Your car wreaks. The spot you were standing in 5 minutes ago fucking wreaks.
 
I think I've said this before but...

When I was a smoker I would have called you a pussy and to suck it up. Now I don't smoke and agree 100%. Shit burns my throat when I'm near a smoker now.

Quitting was the easiest thing I have ever done in my life.
 
well at least the old image of smoking being "cool" or "rebellious" is starting to suppress. thats what got many smokers into it to begin with.

This. x eleventy billion. And don't get me started how I feel when I hear them bitching about not having any money but they spend $50+ a week on those stink sticks, or when they complain that they didn't get as much for a car they were trying to sell cuz of the smell.

But I agree, the sight of them standing out in the freezing cold to smoke just makes me shake my head. I wish I could find or make a good "de-motivational" poster to hang at work expressing it.

I must be one of the few people in the world that get stoned but do not smoke cigarettes.

Hell I have never even tried one, but it seems like more often than not the chicks I hang with do smoke. Eh, does not bother me that much, as long as it is not constant.

Now hookahs on the other hand rule
