Stupid Smokers Are Redundant Phrase

Indonesia
November 4, 2009 4:46am CST
So, one day I sit next to a smoker, and he inhales and exhales smokes like he is breathing, or if he is not doing that, he would keep his cigarettes on his finger and keep it burning and annoying the people around him. And I thought: "Stupid smoker!" Then I realized: Hey, wait a minute. Stupid Smokers are Redundant Phrase! All smokers are stupid! They inhale carcinogens into their lungs, they bought it using their money and they got nothing left of it except smells, irritated lungs, and being poorer. They even annoy people left and right and have no intentions whatsoever to stop! Stupid Smokers Are Redundant Phrase! What do you think?

well no we all arent stuipd. first of all i wont sit or stand near people who dont smoke. and if someone came up to me and said it was bothering them i would say sorry and move away from them. but i was at a party once which was outside this man came up and said your smoking is bothering me, i told him i was sorry and that i would move away from him more. but i guess he was one of those stuipd none smoker who thought he could push me around. after asking him three times to stop pushing me and i dont like to be touch by strangers then i finally said ok old man push me again i'll push you back even harder. lucky the person i was talking was a cop and told him hey you stuipd illmanner none smoker if you push him again and he knock the *hit out of you its call self defence. so you stuipd none smokers think you can put your hands on us smokers dont think so. just because i want to smoke dont mean i am stuipd and i am sure there are things you do and what you drink or eat is stuipd to others. but none smokers like you who are rude i love blowing my smoke in your face for being illmanner

You being smoking is a disruption to the society. You puff carcinogens away into the atmospheres thinking that you have some fun without regards to other's health. Moreover, you give lasting stinks to whatever environment you are in. You sap away resources when you are smoking: your money that can be spent to betterment of yourselves or your family, wasted time you spent when you are smoking for no apparent reason than short time enjoyment. Then when you are down due to your health problems, you sap away the resources too: the time and money spent on doctors and medicines. Resources that can be spent many other ways. You see, if you take clear look at it, smoking is one stupid habit. You buy a thing simply to burn it away while poisoning yourselves? Yeah, that's what I call stupid.

this is why america is so great, but my thing is with you, you remind me that how everyone is suppose to think like you and be like you but its not happening and its my choice to smoke not your's and you dont know anything about me nor my family and where i do smoke like i do smoke outside of my house not inside sorry not anyone will be like you and learn to except the fact no one will ever be like you. but for me to tell you because you drink or eat whatever is damaging you or family isnt my place and its not your place you must be one of those who get upst when someone say merry christmas or call the family tree a christmas tree

my thing is we are free to pick what we want to do and i look at this way everything we eat or drink kills you, even driving can kill you. to me its no different but if i am going to die at least ill be happy and when i do smoke i dont blow smoke into other faces and i make sure if i am around people who dont smoke try not to allow smoke get near them. its like because you dont do christmas means i shouldnt, or if you dont rock music mean i should listen to it. it like me tell you by not doing christmas is wrong but its your choice to do so just like me smoking. ' and not like any smoker dont know its bad for them i do know this but i dont smoke because i need it, i smoke because i get bored and i dont want to gain the 60 lbs back on due issues with my back so if its smoke or gain all my weight back and have more pain in my back and being laid up for months at a time i pick smoking

first of all, is it the smoker that is stupid or the person calling someone stupid while using incorrect grammar like you are? Is someone that eats Mcdonalds stupid too?

With a due respect, isn't it against guidelines to pick on somebody's English? How good is your Indonesian?

We would call that an oxymoron. But the fact is, I know quite a few smokers who are very intelligent people. My mother was one of them and quite a few online friends smoke. Once you start it's hard to stop. You could say that the person is smart, but they are doing one thing that isn't smart. Just like if a person does one bad thing in their life, that doesn't make them a bad person. As far as blowing smoke into people's faces though, that's just rude.

Do you mean for example like eating out and eating at KFC and knowing that it is unhealthy and yet you keep on doing it? Like that? And then you make excuses for that behavior such as not having a wife as if someone needs to take care of you...like that?....is that what you mean?

To know that one thing is useless to do but still do it, what would we call someone who is doing that?

Until you stop driving, consuming American products, or anything in between, attacking smokers is not going to solve the environmental problems that we face. What disrupts society? Preventing people from the healthcare that could allow them to get on a plan to quit smoking, to purchase the medications they do need, to build up a society of healthy, skilled individuals who can handle the problems we face... People make mistakes, and no one is perfect. Everyone has their vices. One lapse of reason does not make someone the enemy.
