So Nanoo doesn't have lung cancer...but she has a pretty bad case of pneumonia. There's so much mucous in her lungs that one's collapsing on itself

"Why would you go and get yourself addicted in the first place? Assholes. You're really dumb. "
Keep in mind that most people get addicted when they're like 12-15. Peer pressure, not the smartest people at that age. Anyone older than that really has no excuse... (even at that age, there isn't much of an excuse)
"Second, you're really fucking weak for not being able to quit."
"Don't you dare start talking to me about how hard it is to quit. WEAKLINGS. You're weak, pathetic, disgusting, doormats. It BLOWS my mind that you KNOW it is POISONOUS...you KNOW it can (and probably will) kill you, and YET you CONTINUE to do it. "
Have you ever tried to quit smoking? Then you shouldn't belittle the task of doing it... why have you drank excessively potentially endangering YOUR life on multiple occasions? Not to mention how inconsiderate (your word) that can be, automatically causing friends to have to take care of you.
"I hope you all get lung cancer. I hope that you have to look each member of your family in the eye, and explain to them that now they have to watch for the next year (or so, depending) while you suffer through the worst pain of your life that eventually will lead to your death. Don't cry to me that you're going to die and you're petrified. Don't complain that you're sick and can't seem to get rid of this awful cold. Don't cough up a lung and then explain that a cigarette is going to make it all better. "
How can you even say this after your last post? You were totally upset about your grandmother, and now you're wishing cancer upon her, not to mention other members of your family and friends of yours? Everyone knows I'm the first supporter of anti-smoking, but come on... be a little bit sensitive.
Unnecessarily harsh, since in your words won't be read by any smokers... I'd like to see you rant this in the face of someone who's dying from cancer or someone who has a family member dying of the disease.
Thanks Matt...I couldn't have said it better myself.
Nat, you once told me that I was being inconciderate when I made a post that abortion is wrong. You told me "Until a person is faced with this decision, nobody should criticise (don't know how to spell that). Well, I've had to quit smoking twice. And BOTH my parents smoked when I was little. My sisters and I would always yell at them to quit and they would always say something like it's too hard blah blah blah... Of course I didn't beleive it when I was a kid, but now that I've had to do it, I beleive it.
I know smoking is wrong. I know it was about time that I stopped. Do you know that after my mom died I was so depressed that I had to take pills before I decided to kill myself? I was 14 years old.
All my friends who were older than me were telling me "Come on Nicole, you'll feel so much better after...It's gonna calm you down. Your parents did it...how bad could it be, right?"
Peer pressure is a bitch. And they were right, it did help. but for how long? I only needed it for the first 2 years after she died. But 5 years later, I was still relying on my disscussting habits as comfort from the world pissing me off.
Even though I quit, I'm still somehow insulted at some of the shit you said. But I think I'm gonna leave it at that.
Well then you had the BEST friends of all time, didn't you?
My question then, is, why do some people give in to peer pressure, and others not? When some of my friends started smoking, I thought they were so nasty. They tried to get me to try it. I didn't.
A couple years later, I tried smoking to see what all the fuss was about. It was the most HORRENDOUS thing i've ever done to myself. I FELT dirty from the inside out. Filthy. What would posess someone to try it again and again is BEYOND me.
Anyways, I'm sorry if you're insulted but i don't take any of it back.
I'm angry. I'm so angry that just because it's not cancer, my grandmother can keep on smoking.... because THAT'S going to help pneumonia... and i'm still mad for all of the abover reasons that i stated in my post.
Smoking is dumb. People who smoke are ridiculous.
Nicole, I'm really proud of you that you've quit. I hope you don't ever touch a cigarette again for the rest of your life.
"I'd like to see you rant this in the face of someone who's dying from cancer or someone who has a family member dying of the disease."
That's EXACTLY my point. They get cancer and all of a sudden they are scared shitless...you had YEARS to quit...YEARS AND YEARS of your life were spent sucking back cancer sticks and NOW they're upset or scared that they have cancer?
I told my grandmother if it was cancer, i wasn't speaking to her anymore. I obviously didn't mean it, but as she takes a relieved breath that's it's NOT cancer, she continues to smoke.
I grew up in a family that smoked. 4 Adults...plus all of my parents friends. DISGUSTING. And Matt, don't try and compare try and compare smoking to drinking. It's not the same unless i was an alcoholic.
I don't belittle the task of quitting, I commend it. QUIT FUCKERS! I belittle the fact that most people are too lazy to even try "because it's too hard," Have YOU ever tried to quit smoking? Have you ever watched your parents try and quit?
I had to endure my mother when she, "quit" smoking the first 4 times. Imagine your mother's worst anger, horrendous screaming, and terror inducing rage...imagine all that, constantly at the surface ready to BURST out as soon as you speak the wrong word, in the the wrong tone. Beyond petrifying, let me tell you.
