Both. I really need to stop smoking though, I'm smoking nearly a pack a day, and sometimes when I, for example, go up a stair or something, I have to stop and catch my breath, lol

Generally I only smoke weed.. lol - no tobacco!
I drink, and when I get drunk I get a strange urge to smoke a cig.. ALWAYS happens. So both.

I only drink. Started at a very young age too. At school people thought I was an alcoholic (which I'm not) but then again they are Muslim. And what do you know they drink :rolleyes:.
However, weed >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>cigarettes imo. The latter is just plain disgusting, especially, when you hear ppl clear their throats or cough. NASTY!
No offense if anyone is insulted.

I don't want to offend anyone either! But I have lots of thoughts on smoking, lol.
I tried a cigarette once and threw it away. I would never smoke, it disgusts me. It looks, smells and tastes awful, and ther benefits of it do not outweigh the costs.
From a psychological point of view: The nicotine changes the structure of your brain mechanisms and your chemical balance, although it's not permenant, its still dangerous as that's why people get addicted.
From a medical point of view: the tar in your lungs does lasting damage.. look at the difference between the lungs of a smoker and a non smoker.. wow, a smokers lungs are BLACK. its creepy.
Also I don't think smoking is "cool" anymore (thats why most of my friends started)and the relief and feeling people get from it isn't instant, you have to get addicted before you feel the benefit.. so people force themselves to get addicted, it seems. There are other, less harmful things like herbs and relaxation techiniques.
I still don't understand why so many people smoke.. but oh well.
Regarding weed.. that's less bad. The smell reminds me of sunday roasts which I don't mind, lol. Although it affects your brain too, it's less addictive and the benefits do outweigh the costs here, but if and only if you do it in a safe, controlled environment with people you know and trust.
Although I don't do it myself, though I have tried it, and I would never encourage anyone to take this or drugs of any kind.
Alcohol.... is the worst one according to damage to the body.. especially if you binge drink. But for a strange reason, I never seem to have any problems drinking alcohol myself despite hating smoking... ha.
I used to be a heavy drinker, but I've stopped now, and I feel much better for it. I have a couple of drinks once a month or something, because it costs so much and just leaves you feeling nasty i the morning. But it is fun to be drunk, so I guess the short term rewards are worth the costs of the damage to your liver/hangover if controlled.. like don't pick a drunk fight, don't drink drive etc. I don't think I'll ever go back to binge drinking unless its like my birthday or something.
I know this is an essay, but I wanted to express my opinions!

I do both, but I don't smoke many cigarettes. But when I drink occasionally I sometime need some fags. :P

I'm too young to do both :(
However, I do love a bit of Vodka and red bull at parties :P lol
TommyTank. - November 18, 2008 06:55 PM (GMT)

I don't do both .. it's bad for your brains lol.

I don't smoke, I think it's an awful addition :/
But yeah, of course I drink :P Everything I can in the parties and sometimes one Redd's in the evening :P
But in general I like drinking for real only apple redd's, heh. it's really good :D And in the parties I drink vodka, wine and beer just when my friends do it, you know, and also to have more fun but actually they don't give me a big pleasure ;] So when I feel dizzy(drowsy? idk which word to use :P) I stop drinking for some time. thanks to it I have never had hangover :D
Anyway, looking at some of people e.g from my class...they seem to be really f%#$ed up. Just see what some of them did durning our class trip: we started going to our destination at 5am. At 8am some of them were compeletly drunk and vomited ;] And of course 2 hours later we went to the mountans to walk there for 7 hours.
I really don't understand that kind of people. Why the hell they drink so much and in addition on a trip? Pffff

I enjoy a drink (mostly at the weekends :P ), and sometimes I'll smoke too, but not very often.
