do you guys find yourself just looking under the hood of your car for hours at a time? i was just outside for an hour just staring at my engine- i had like 4 cigarettes in a row.

Did you have any check engine lights? reminds me of last night when I wheel hopped so bad my CEL came on. I pulled over under a light and found I broke and injector wire and broke my vtec wire. oh well I gotta go fix it today.

"When large numbers of people smoke a vegetable or plant derivative - marijuana, hashish, and opium are example - it's always to get a kick of a "psychoactive" drug, a drug that affects their mood. Tobacco is the only plant that contains nicotine, a powerful psychoactive drug. Inhaling cigarette smoke, the smoker gets an immediate concentrated dose of nicotine in his blood stream. It hits his brain within six seconds - twice as fast as mainlining heroin."


Are you smoking or is it smoking you?

See smoking is kind of like you are your own. That is until you have a 5 year old kid breathing that stuff in... Not intended to offend anyone...

For my own personal take on it, I just figured why am I going to start smoking... I already breath in enough of the freaken exhaust coming out of the straight pipe that leaks through into the main cabin! hah =)

lol, the only guy to post on the actual subject. ;)

Smoking is retarded. Don't take that the wrong way, people who smoke aren't retarded(ok, maybe a little :P ), smoking is retarded. What is the point? If you calculate the total cost of smoking up in a year and then compare that to the positive side effects that you receive, you will realize that smoking is a complete waste of time, money, teeth, and air. As a non-smoking male, kissing a smoking female is one of the grossest things I have ever experienced. I smoked from when I was about 11 years old to about 19. I quit a few times before I finally figured it out, but I did quit. Smoking sucks. It makes you lazy, stinky, dirty, nasty, rank, your teeth turn a nice shade of yellow, your clothes, car, house, hair, everything smells like ass. Keep smoking them cigarettes guys. It's good for you. :)

Re:just looking
 
lol, I didn't mean it in a personal way. It's hard as hell to quit. It took me a long time to actually stop for good. I still have cravings like a mother fucker, but when I think about all of the negative things that go along with it, I realize it's not worth it. I smoked about 5 cigarettes last year total. I had such bad cravings that I just had to smoke a cigarette or I was going to go crazy. I have kinda a ritual every time I go to Glamis to ride, I smoke 1 cigarette and 1 only. It keeps me in check because it makes me sick and dizzy and then I remember why I quit. :)

Well said. I smoked from about 13-15. Terrible habit.

Re:just looking
 
damn, i didn't mean to start a 'smoke out'. i myself smoke from about 13 until just about two months ago (22), so that's 9 years of stinking, having stale smoke breath, waking up in the morning hacking, being short of breath while participating in sports/physical hobbies, throwing at least 10 -15 bucks a week out the window, etc., etc. like dr. boost said, i just started to weight the pros with the cons, and well, there are no pros, and yes it is hard as hell to quit :P but you have to be motivated to quit, and yeah, i still get cravings like a mofo, but the actual thought of a smoke filling my luns with poisinous toxins gets me through those fairly easy ;D
