I hate smokers for so many reasons, they're common stuff but it's good to vent tbh.
>everything stinks
Every, single, thing, stinks so fucking much it's unreal, and I could leave a bag in the house of a smoker for a few minutes just to feel the horrible smell comino from it and stinking my clean house.
>the allergies
Just because someone is "okay" around you while you suck the stupid nicotine or weed stick doesn't mean that person won't have to deal with sometimes some serious consequences later on.
I've had nights in which I feel like I'm choking because of the secondhand smoke that I've inhaled even if it was for a while, even after taking an antiallergic, which is also I can't take all of the time because it's like getting an anesthetic that will make me fall asleep so deeply that not even the alarm clock could wake me up.
>the whole addict shit
Fuck that shit, I fucking hate how smokers of any kind can't fucking stop smoking for a while, you're a stupid ass dumbass addict, no, you can't just leave it whenever you want and no, it's not because I haven't tried it.
Your brain thinks it needs your stupid cigs or stupid weed because it's how it's wired, why can't you get a healthy addiction like drinking copious amounts of water? Or exercising? Maybe become addicted to helping people for fuck's sake, you could be a baking addict that gives cakes to the homeless. But noooooo I need to smoke muh cigarettes and muh weed to feel like a persooooon.
Smokers are the same as drunkards, just as hazardous even.
>when it's a personality trait
Fuck that shit as well, weed doesn't make you cool, it makes you look like a loser, smoking, regardless of whether you're smoking slim cigarettes or the most expensive cigars with rum, makes you look like the orally fixated loser that you are without an ounce of self control that disgusts people.
Also, wearing merch of the shit that's either rotting your brain or rotting your lungs isn't quirky, cute or funny, it's pathetic, it makes you look like an unwashed loser that needs attention 24/7.
>INB4 Muh coping mechanism Muh I'm saaaaaaaaaaaaaaaad Muh I'm stweeeeeeeeessed
Unless you're literally dying because of a crippling terminal illness, fuck off.
>muh alternative medicine
Petting kittens and puppies is also a good alternative medicine, petting horses as well, hiking, going to the beach, helping other people in actual need that can't afford a pack of cigarettes or 100 grams of weed and all of the paraphernalia that it needs, massages, meditation, yoga, swimming, boxing, fruit picking, farming, gardening, solving puzzles, reflections of what you've done with your life, crafts and arts, poetry, writing, music, baking, cooking, reading, acting, sewing, knitting, crocheting.
There you go, a list of things that you can do to keep your anxiety at bay, doesn't all of that sound enriching? There's even things that you can do with friends, family, where you can meet new people, or that you can even do on breaks at work instead of smoking like a massive faggot loser.

My whole family smokes and during family gatherings I am surrounded my clouds of smoke for the entire time I'm there. If I even make as much as a face or move to get away from the worst of it, they will give a petty "sorry for bothering you" comment and act all smug about it. They smoke around the kids too with no regard for their health. People who smoke around kids in general are fucking annoying.

Nta but my issue with smokers is how they think they're better than drunkards when they're literally the same.
If you remove the smokes and weed they can't sleep, they get cranky, they will throw up, get depressed and shit like that.
The only difference is that they're conscious the whole time, which makes this whole thing even more retarded.

I hate the smell of regular tobacco cigarettes and weed but worse of all is straw cigarettes, it was originally a countryside thing in my country, but I used to live in a big city where it was extremely popular, especially among university students. Everywhere I went there was someone smoking something, often stinky straw cigarette. Maybe because it's said to be better than regular cigarettes, but that's a lie and I'm not sure why anyone would believe that, or maybe it was just the hipster appeal.

>>1307353Kek you're so mad, I haven't wished for anyone's death btw, I'm just saying that at some point in your life you have to have some sense of responsibility and find different ways to cope.
I've been addicted to sugar, it's possible to be addicted to it, but now I don't consume it. Was it difficult to drop? Of course it was, but with will power anything is possible.
It's so easy to blame the addictive substance when the problem is the weakness of the person that can't let go, because it's easier to have a quick and temporary solution instead of doing something meaningful with their time that won't mess up with other people's health.

triggers that make you want to smoke.

Smokers cause forest fires by flicking their butts out the car window. I’ve seen a guy get pulled over for it (British Columbia Canada).
They also stink, ruin houses/cars etc and are unpleasant to be around. The way to get extra breaks at work is to lie and say you smoke and they just let you hang outside whenever you want. I hate smokers with a burning passion. My family are a bunch of addicts of meth, weed, alcohol and cigarettes. Seeing what has become of them after all these years is depressing and 100% preventable. My aunt got a nose job because coke fucked it up internally. My cousin is prostituting herself for meth and lives in a busted RV. It all starts with smoking but one bad event or peer pressure can send someone in search of something stronger.

It's gross in so many ways and all the breaks smokers get to take at work drives me nuts but admittedly I still kinda think it looks cool. It's balanced out by how severely uncool it is to constantly need to pause your life to go and smoke outside somewhere.
Either way I hope every smoker switches to vaping. They can blow their watermelon flavoured smoke in my face any day.

Thank god a place I can rant about smokers. One of my jobs there are these 3 women, one you would never, ever guess was in her early 40s because how absolute ragged she looks, and part of that clearly has to do with smoking. She always goes out smoking on both 15s we get with these 2 girls and they all smoke 2-3 cigarettes each in that time (nobody actually makes it 15 its usually 20) and they always stink so goddamn badly, like far worse than usual. One day I was on my lunch when I saw them smoking and found out all 3 smoke together in 1 car, don't even bother to roll the damn windows down. When I say they reek I mean it. One girl I work closeby her and I will be 2 aisles over and I can still smell her its that strong. Absolutely disgusting

>>1308471Colorful disposable vape pens have made a pretty noticable resurgence where I live. I thought they peaked a few years ago but I think other countries have set harsher selling rules.. and so the market where I am is pushing them harder while they still can. Staying ahead of any incoming laws that put a dampner on it. I've complained on here before that there's more vape packaging littering the streets in my area than there is candy wrappers.. it has to be younger people.
The last time I ever bought one (ex smoker, used vapes while giving it up) It had the writing "I vape great!" written on it in this fancy script and it's just a piss take how cute they make them. I felt like a fool with it. It looked like a peach lipstick and lit up purple at the end. Make them bland looking at least. They did that with cigs here, removed the branding so that they look boring. Then this rainbow shit pops up right next to them? That time I bought one the cashier laid out 20 options too and I think she was surprised I only wanted one. They're not even a 'weaning off' tool any more. The whole reason we originally had them was to taper off the real thing.

I used to smoke, I would stop occasionally and then pick it back up when work got stressful. Smokers don't know that they stink. They have no idea they smell like wet cigarette butts. I would say I feel bad for my former coworkers in hindsight, but quitting that job ultimately led me to quitting smoking, and for good this time.
I used to like the smell of second hand smoke too, but now I can't stand it. It used to make me want to smoke but now it just gives me a headache. What gets me now is seeing smoking on shows or in games. It makes my chest feel tight and gives me butterflies. Tobacco companies really knew what they were doing when they created deathly addictive cigarettes and all encompassing advertising.
I wish I had never started. When I see young people smoking now, it makes me angry. Smelling smoke in my apartment from neighbors or people on the street almost pushes me over the edge. But I don't say anything to others, because I know the response would be just like mine was when I smoked.

>>1316064My family has alot of 'generation trauma' I guess, CSA, people covering it up, child neglect that turns into more bad parenting when that child grows up and has their own kids and doesn't know how to be a parent etc. So I have empathy for people with legit trauma that was left untreated for so long that addiction took over first. People without a healthy upbringing or support system to even try and guide them. I lost an aunt to it. Then I used to have a friend who'd sit in the pub with us and start telling us about her dad molesting her as soon as she was drunk enough to lose her filter. She was way too generous about buying other people drinks and she had no off switch once she started drinking, it was a mess. She'd a dead mom and a dad in prison and nobody had the authority to really step in and stop her eating through her savings that way.
I still think alot of the alcoholism in my country stems from people who just sign onto state benefits for 'insert shady disability claim' and then eventually boredom kicks in because they're obviously able-bodied and not doing anything with their life. So they live in the pub and smoke and drink all day.. ironically taking their disablity money and spending it on ruining their health for real.

I'm okay with people smoking outdoors as long as they don't throw pic related to the floor. I'm my country people do that when the cigarette is still lit and they don't even bother to put it down after that. A couple of times I've seen a burning cigarette tail falling near me from a balcony and that has scared the shit out of me, I don't want to think what could have happened if it hit me on the head/face. I used to smoke as a teen and I'd be careful to not trash the park when I smoked there, there are bins everywhere in cities these days.

Every single person in my family used to smoke, but me. It was really annoying how my friends told me I smelled like cigarettes. I felt I was being shamed for something I never really chose. Every time I brought it up people would talk about how bad being a secondhand smoker is, but I was just a kid, there was little I could do. My parents and siblings weren't dumb, they knew smoking was bad, what did they expect me to do? I wouldn't convince them. I didn't have any allergies, but some of my friends did, so they couldn't do sleepovers in my house because the smell would trigger their allergies.
Now that I'm older I have some allergies, strong smells like perfumes give me terrible headaches and the smell of cigarettes is an instant trigger. I can now smell what my friends smelled in me. I don't hate smokers, but I hate how unaware they are. They used to smoke at restaurants and I remember my parents being pissed when the restaurant didn't have smoking tables. I now deeply relate to the people disgusted by that, as I also find the smell disgusting and the smoke makes my eyes hurt. I feel bad for my child version that was so exposed to it, that she didn't smell or feel the effects of it.
And I hate the smell of weed, it makes me want to vomit. I know people who hate the smell of cigarettes and don't mind the weed smell so this is probably more of a me thing.
