I am a smoker. I used to smoke 10-15 per day, now it\'s up to about 20. I smoke anything from Silk Cut Ultras to filterless Capstans and Camel, if it\'s got nicotine I\'ll smoke it.
I watched my Aunt and Gran die of lung cancer but was already a smoker, it probably wouldn\'t have stopped me anyway.
I also love a spliff (actually, many spliffs). I average about 1/3 oz per weekend on my own although depending how long I spend gaming can stretch to 1oz per weekend (Damn you Morrowind!).
My respect for the law is at an all time low so I say f*ck it, if I\'m out and about and fancy a joint I\'ll create and smoke one, anyone that rips into me for it can f_ck off as I\'m not hurting anyone but myself.
One of my pet hates is to be told things more than once, every time I buy ciggies I get more annoyed about the VERY LARGE WARNINGS TELLING ME THINGS I KNEW 10 YEARS AGO WHEN I STARTED! I\'ll be pissed if they try and stop me smoking outside, anywhere, unless it\'s in a football stadium or some other stadium type event that I\'ve payed to get into, I don\'t mind so much about non smoking restaurants, I\'ll just stand outside or wait until the bill\'s settled.
I can see the non-smokers point, it isn\'t nice if you don\'t smoke, but it can\'t just be banned from everywhere. They\'re talking about it being banned in pubs now, I\'ll never go in a pub again as a smoker if I\'m not allowed to light up. There are three things in a pub that are important, the pint, the pool table and the cigarette.
