The real question should be : Is there any need for such a nasty habbit?

as most older people who smoked were conned by advertising back in the day, that smoking was fashionable n cool, without being aware of the dangers, yet the tobacco companies knew but suppressed the information,that makes yer comment ignorant drivel n will give you the benifit of the doubt, that you dont know any better, although someone like you may dispute that.

Ive been a non smoker all my life and people smoking has never botherd me, but some people, tell smokers, its a disgustig habbit, yea its bad for you,

I'm just amazed (not) that all pubs and clubs aren't heaving.

All the non-smokers, who said they'd go into pubs if there was a smoking ban, are still nowhere to be seen.

I think that persons who suffer from flatulence should also have their own outdoor farting areas

Didnt get to finish, But some people are down right rude to smokers, overnight its become disgusting, I think picking your bum, spitting, picking your nose is disgusting, In the grand scheme of things its not really disgusting, pretty soon haveing more than 3 or 4 drinks will be considered the same, FARTING in public will be band , let alone lighting it.

Actually, no I dont smoke - never have, I do not drin tea or coffe and avoid painkillers whenever possible . But I do feel you have totally missed the point here,a chemical addiction is caused by an addictive substance. Nicotine is one such. In the majority of people alcohol is not addictive other than on a psychological level.
Nicotine is addictive in the same way as say cocaine and I do feel that if people faced up to this and accepted the cigarettes are an addictive substance and their users addicts society might finally be able to ge them the help they need, but of course they must want to be helped

think you have missed the point, many people do want n try to stop smoking, as i have on numerous occasions, after losing me Mum,Dad,Wife, to cancer, all were heavy smokers,what people don't need is self opinionated, perfect, people calling em druggies.

Actually it may very well be exactly what they need, to face reality

Intolerance
intolerance definition - Dictionary - MSN Encarta
1. refusal to accept differences: unwillingness or refusal to accept people who are different from you, or views, beliefs, or lifestyles that differ from your own
Yours appears to extend beyond the food intolerances you have previously mentioned here

Drug addicts soon get hysterical when their addictions are attacked

A little like you did yesterday, in this thread.

Indeed so hysterical, and humourless, that it seemed to affect your whole 'interlect'.

There's something about polly's harsh, almost dictatorial approach to life that i find strangly attractive, do I need professional help?
