Space1999 SG i believe smoking is a personal choice though the smokers know they are systematically rendering their lungs blacker and blacker each day and on the road to lung cancer and various other disease which they will regret one day. the one that is not good is the inconsiderate smokers, not realising their secondary smoke is actually more harmful to the bystanders than themselves. i used to be a smoker, took me a few years to get my lungs clear. if you have family consider cutting down or stopping, its rather silly way to kill yourself , jumping in front of a mrt is more beneficial.(more money) if not and you are single, smoke away. but in the privacy of your own room, away from other ppl especially kids
[email protected] SG I suggest you go watch the movie"thank you for smoking". There is a very good argument for smoking. Btw, the no.1 killer is cholestrol, not cigarettes so can we ban ppl eating fastfood.
bozo43 SG Way to go Missqi, such an incisive mind. Non-smokers must learn to tolerate smokers, otherwise god will punish you by giving you a chain smoking, tarred finger, chimney of a spouse.
Sharingan_ichigo SG hey smokers...y cant we interfere? we have rights to ok..you pollute the air, you not only harm ur own health but others as well...y cant we interfere? we are affected by ur freaking smoke right..? please la..if you wanna smoke..please smoke in a place where there are no ppl lehz..be considerate la...i know some smokers are smoking away frm the crowds..and thats considerate..we can understand that smoking is not a habit that you can kick easily..but at least be considerate and smoke somewhere where there are no ppl can? and even if you smoke at home in ur room or whatsoever..please oso think about ur family la e.g. ur parents,siblings...you want to die doesn't mean they shld die with you..dun be selfish..spare a thought for them la...
[email protected] SG sometimes, it the ppl who purposely walk near the smokers, they can always talk a detour in order to avoid the smoke. Then, some ppl really irritate us smokers. When they breath in a little smoke, they give us the look that say" I going to get lung cancer, going to die liao". Really piss us off.
Sharingan_ichigo SG its bo bian de..NUS_superstar…its a normal reaction to non-smokers…they wun want to die frm 2nd hand smoke mahz…
Sharingan_ichigo SG I suppose you are an NUS student right? then you shld know that 2nd hand smoke is more hazardous that the puff smokers smoke…I am not saying its easy to die or not..but its just a normal reaction…for example example nia har…someone kay kay wanna push you into the MRT track..what’s ur reaction? you will be shocked and for that moment thought you will be falling down right? what if you really fall? you will try your best to come up and beat the hell out of that person who pushed you right?
kokzter SG if die so easily, duno how many ppl die liaoz lo.. shiringan_ichigo, if say like tat, well, some non smokers r worse ! those smokin corners at coffee shop is for us smokers... thn WTH, those non smokers go tk up the table there to eat, those finished their food one still there talk kokz,while i m waitin for the FREAKIN table.. thn i juz smokin right beside thm... thy still give mi tat kinda look !!! realli CB !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! thn wht does tat suppose to mean ????????
Sharingan_ichigo SG as i have said, its a normal reaction for ppl to siam you or give that kind of look to smokers,i understand…cos they dun wish to breathe in 2nd hand smoke..its not the matter of dying fast/easy or not..they just dun wish to…but since smoking area is setup for smokers i believe those ppl is in the wrong oso la…
[email protected] SG Actually, smoking is also same as drinking but smoking is cast in a very bad light than drinking.
Sharingan_ichigo SG can oso say so la..cos ppl will oso siam that drunk ppl mahz…but at least drinking just affects that person’s health alone…it does not really affect those bystander’s/family’s health…
[email protected] SG Actually, I dun think that little cigarette smoke contribute to air pollution. It is equivalent to ppl burning joss sticker and paper money. Must they die too? The main culprits contributing to air pollution are factories that release their toxic smoke into the air. Maybe they shld die. I run away too.
DriftingGuy SG Eating seafood and dying from cholesterol related diseases is different from smoking. If i eat seafood and someone sitting 1 table away from me dies from cholesterol due to the seafood I eat then yes, go ahead and ban seafood
DriftingGuy SG There are laws in place to limit emissions coming from factories in industries. Whether the company obeys or not is another matter
