That must've been one dumb cat.

I can't really help it if someone here's dumb enough to go buy weed, roll it up and smoke it just because I posted a link here. Don't really see that happening.
 
Techenclave is a Family site and many kids Like u visit this site on a regular basis , now the last thing they want is a Guide on how to roll a Joint. And some Kids r dumb n equally curious.

I can't really help it i

You can , by not posting crap !

I would let Mods take some action now , no point arguing on this.
 
Huff huff..i missed in a lot of action..anyways..this thread is not my playground..
Cos,
I DONT smoke
I DONT drink
I DONT eat animals (crude way to say, non-veg..:P ) (staunch veggi supporter here)
Hell, i DONT even drink tea... (tea sucks..gives me a bad stomach..:P)

But yeah, gonna confess, i love coffee.. especially a mocha at a CCD junction near my friend's place everyday..just love it.. :D
And yeah, since it getting hotter by the day here in mumbai..a Maaza once in a while... given up coke..it surely was becoming an addiction for me..but yeah, its easy to give up..:D
Also i'm a burger addict..:food5:...cant live without a veg burger or 2 a day...and yeah i love pastries...:food4: :ohyeah:

When i was in college, my friends used to tempt me to try ciggys but well, after the same denials everyday, they stopped..a lot of ppl still ask me, "man, how r u alive..? you dont smoke, u dont drink, u dont like non veg.."..and i always have a fair answer to give..."there are far better things to eat in this world...and i enjoy what i eat.."...:hap5:
 
NO offense meant to any1 who smokes...all of this is my personal ..experience\opinion.....

really interesting topic i must say....

to start with i am 17..and a non-smoker...and i have just tried a cig for once just to know what is so good about it..and to tell u da truth...i didnt find anything nice abt it..

ofcrse smokin for show-off ,feelin big..and all is somethin even i though of..but i never did it dunno why ..

maybe cauz i have come across 2 of my frnds who have heart problems...and both of dem believe..and know that they

had heart probs..since birth cauz there dad's were and are chain smokers..

u knw it really hurtz .

anywayz .if ppl smoke ..to stay awake @ night...during studies and all ..i think u can try an alternative called "Coffee" it really helps me stay awake at night...i really enjoy its taste..and 3 mugs of coffee every night is what help me complete my whole portion of SSC in just 2.5 months....after wasting the whole year..and den get good..marks...

i really dunno why smoking is so addictive..maybe only a smoker knows it..but i really dont think ..relieving stress ..or smoking for a gal..is worth risking u r life..and others life. too...

for da smokers.

wish the almighty will give u da will power to quit smoking ,if u really want..to...and if ur trying to quit...and for the ppl who still enjoy smoking..i believe..u shud still consider..as the path u ve chosen will really harm u body and nothing else..no offense..but as a fellow TE i really feel bad..

cmon guys some better alternatives which dont harm u r body...so how many..of u r trying to quit ??i knw..it maybe difficult..but still....

-[SIZE=-1]Every pack of cigarettes that you buy carries the ‘statutory’ warning – “cigarette smoking is injurious to health”.

Nothing wrong !! I myself love Bournvita, but my mom tells me not to drink because for every glass of milk, I add 3 spoons of Sugar and 5 heaped spoons of Bournvita :P

IT is way too fattening the way I drink it :P

hehe yeah.... that is what I keep telling my friends.
 
short jottings of wat discussed...

- ppl start smoking for stress-relieving and show off... all wants to quit but dont find a strong reason enuf to quit it.... some says they 'l do when their gf says it so!!! why cant they quit themselves :P hmm...watever... if tat gf leaves then they again start off!!! bah!!!!

- true, u cant do anything to change ppl's decisions n will power. if they wish to stop u can help them do it. tats all.. but i dint find any ppl who did not want to stop smoking.. all are just waiting for some strong reason to stop it... then why not help all and convince them with reasons strong enuf to leave the bad habit????

(I cudn't convince them myself, so started this thread obviously... ;) )

- again, I agree there are lot many other addictions, even too much of tea n coffee and drinks are considered not healthy.. but I guess they are not as bad as cigs, and moreever its just "tooo much" of tea/coffee which is bad, in small amounts it does good only i think.... the same goes with pc, or games and other not-so-problematic addiction...

-it seems i shud start one thread on drinking also :P

Rock does to me what trance does to you..:P neways, taking in broader terms, any music tht makes u feel good about being urself is the biggest stress buster..

when i am angry, feeling the pain, feeling sick or just downright tired, i listen to my favorite prog rock or industrial stuff(often it is DT or rammstein)..pump up the volume..making life hell for my family members..but at the same time, instantly feeling better about being me..:ohyeah:

Heh, mine seems to be a totally intersecting path. I listen to everything from Sesto Sento to Nightwish :rofl:
 
Its human tendency to do something even when they know its bad for you.

Thats the one reason why people smoke. Honestly the morals, good and bad, right and wrong go out of window of most of us.

Smoking is basically worst thing you can do to yourself. Its worse than drinking. Still people do it.

And the reason is same for all other sins.

Some people think its cool to smoke, some do it because someone else is doing it. Some smoke to impress someone and some do it to piss somone off and some just because they are curious and some smoke because they think its good to do so. Each of the excuse is just plain lame.

As far as i am concerned smoking habits of person is one of the things i consider while having non professional interaction or relation with that person. I cant stand the smell and breath of smokers.

That person may be good but that habit is enough to keep me away from that person. As simple as that.

I can tolerate a person who drinks occasionally but not a smoker.

I dont judge people usually. But i do judge people who smoke.
