No.
Hated working with chain smokers, they spent more time and attention smoking than actual working. It was like working with a one armed man that smelled bad. |

I would also fight a circular saw to be able to smoke cigars and my pipe at work.
Also funny the amount of pussy ass antismoking propaganda being spouted off. Enjoy your 932nd booster and your cum flavored vapes. If it weren’t for white trash chainsmoking menthols and the cheapest floor sweepings cigarettes it would be universally agreed that fine tobacco is a delight to the senses. |

I've enjoyed a few cigars in the past....I seriously liked them.
I'd love more, but I know they're not good for me. Polluting one's own body is not going to save western society. That is honestly some of the dumbest BS I've ever heard. |

First amendment. Businesses should be free to allow bros to smoke, drink beer, and look at titties. People should be free to not visit such places. That pesky individual responsibility mirite? |

The nags are never satisfied. Nags just keep nagging and pushing.
Our country was better when people smoked. There were a few casualties along the way, however. |

The second hand smoke scare was one of the most successful propaganda campaigns of the 90s. Everyone read and repeated the “second hand smoke is more harmful than what the smoker inhales” line. Based on a faulty study that was later proven to be a lie. However it gave the traction needed to get the ball rolling against tobacco.
Farmers in the southeast were fairly independent and the elites have always hated independence. Wanted them all relocated to assembly line slave jobs. They succeeded. This all happened about the same time they drove out the independent midwest farmers. Fuck the elites. |

They removed one lung but it had already spread to the other. She left behind three kids. I also got to breathe huge amounts of smoke from her, my father and step mother for 18 years whenever I was at home or in a car with them and have had lung problems my whole life. |

I have fond memories of going into restaurants and smelling that sweet aroma. Restaurants would hand out matchbooks, they were like the pokemon of the preinternet times. Slowly the commies segregated us and eventually we were pushed out. Now the entire world is in tatters. This nation and the western world as we know it was built on this leafy green. The revolutionary war was fought over this plant, civilizations were built, and continents were colonized by it. The United States won two world wars with this crop, and 12 men landed on the moon fueled by its gifts. It is an established fact that no man has landed on the moon and no US wars have been won since people stopped smoking, and yet every day our society falls further into chaos. If we have any chance of pulling out of this dive we need to start smoking again. Thank you for listening to my presentation. @RustedAce View Quote Ha,@Keekleberrys this reminds me of a senior scientist in the Army that said men that smoked (and drank) were the characters that made all our modern progress. And great people like Patton. It was basically a tongue in cheek joke in response to the safety patrol types present saying it should all be banned, but a true observation nonetheless; and he’s made it a couple times so was more than just that spurious observation. |

I wrote a term paper on how tobacco and cotton won American independence. Tobacco is still important to the eco omg, it I think it saved the West in WWI and WWII. Tobacco is no longer a crop that will cause a war.

Polluting one's own body is not going to save western society. That is honestly some of the dumbest BS I've ever heard. View Quote @TexanInOhio4 99% of folks don't inhale their cigar or pipe smoke. As such, your health effects are minimal, if any. Some studies show the relaxation effect outweighs the effects of any tobacco exposure and life expectancy is increased. On a freedom-loving website like this, folks should embrace personal freedom and responsibility. Its a leftist position that being within a mile of a tobacco leaf will kill you instantly. Like other things, moderation is key. Puffing on a pipe or cigar is a lot more moderate than a pack a day (two pack a day) habit of inhaling genetically-modified tobacco in cigarettes. Gun and freedom-loving people need to stop wringing their hands and fretting like leftist Karen's about the existence of tobacco on this planet and that some folks may enjoy the freedom to enjoy a cigar or bowl of pipe tobacco. Don't be a brainwashed, progressive Karen folks. |
