The Family Smoking Prevention and Tobacco Control Act (H.R. 1256)

I feel for the anti-smoking peeps.

Everyone agrees that cigarettes are bad for you, there is no argument there

They don't give you a fun buzz.

I disagree. ^_^

Though you are right on the rest. They do taste awful when you start, they're bad for you, and they're really hard to give up.

[frogmaster]

Really? I never thought they did anything more than give a little energy boost, akin to a weak caffeine buzz.

That and quell the nicotine addiction pangs, which on balance would appear to be a buzz. ;)

[quetzal]

Nope. A cigarette actually gives a pretty solid buzz, more so than most average cups of coffee. For me, anyhow. I've smoked and quit a couple of times now, and it's always the same.

[frogmaster]

So do you wish you never started smoking?

Or are you happy with the choices that you have made so far?

[quetzal]

I'm happy with the choices I have made, because they gave me opportunities to understand things I would not have, had I not had that opportunity.

Even smoking. ^_^

[frogmaster]

Cool!

All seriousness aside:

Don't you think grape cigarettes are an evil that deserves to be stamped out? Come, really!

[quetzal]

lol
but I like grape! aww... *pout*

It's funny, though, that cloves and "lite" cigarettes are now evil, but menthols (such as Newports) are fine.

[frogmaster]

Naw, menthols have always been evil!
