How can anyone not know how bad smoking is for you? They have been preaching about it for 30 years, and the warning is right on the pack. 0 -
Is that all you got!? 0 -
100% of every person in the grave yard got dead from something. I stopped smoking years ago; now I encourage people to smoke, do illegal drugs and drive falling down drunk on deserted, tree lined windy country roads, fast in the rain.
By them doing that stuff I get more guns at better prices due to lower demand and estate sales.0 -

400,000 deaths a year in smoking-related cases alone.......dubious. 0 -
I kinda like my two or three cigars per week! Now I will have to think about that some more. Damn scary statistics![:0][:0][:(] 0 -
With all these deadly statistics it's a wonder how anyone lives more then 20 years. They don't worry me much. I have to die sooner or later. From the day you're born you start dieing.
I can think of better ways to die though. [:D]0 -

ROTFLMAO.
That's just wrong, man. You're sick, that's what you are.
Meanwhile... ROTFLMAO!!!!!!!0 -
i got news for you guys, it is not smoking causing this, it is Twinkies
when smoking was popular everyone did it everywhere, no one got cancer, no on even thought about second hand smoke, then Twinkies came along, and guess what,coincidence?, i think not[:)]this is a joke guys0 -
Anybody see the Penn&teller BS saying that second hand smoke is almost completely harmless. nonsmoker barmaids in the smokest hell holes for 40 yrs had like a 2% higher chance of lung cancer. 0 -
and in that list of stats there, does it say how long any of those people smoked BEFORE they got cancer? does it say anything about family history? were any of them MORE likely to get cancer due to other factors like smoke, rub snuff, work around carcenogenic materials? no. no stats are truthful. they are always put together by someone who has an agenda to promote. anyone can pull numbers from any number of different sources and put them together and say "hey...look! after years of study, i have come up with these statistics!!!! Pooh Bear eats hunney!!!!!!" they haven't proven anything, just said it in a manner that sounds convincing. 0 -
I'll quit smoking the day after I die. how's that? I'm going to have one last cig. ha. 0 -
if they don't want it in the hospital, they better be ready to wheel me out into the parking lot, cuz I'm gonna have a cig!! 0 -
Ive quit for 2 years or better,But from time to time when im at the bar drinking.............Dang i miss em sometimes. 0 -
Wow! Do I need to quit smoking crack, too? Or is it just cigarettes?
What we need to do is quit bombing Al Quaeda and air drop cartons of Marlboro's on them.
