Used to smoke myself so have no problem if people want to smoke.
I do have a problem with smokers who crowd outside doorways and force you to walk through their smoke in order to get in somewhere .. ironically usually at my local hospital.
Also, have a problem with fag ends and the way people just throw them anywhere. Now I used to do this myself and it's only now as a non smoker that I can see what a dick I was (probably still am, but now: a dick that doesn't throw fag ends).

Its the cost that gets me, 20 a day = £7 a day = £49 a week = £196 a month, could you afford to give up £200+ from your wages a month, that's HP on a decent car or something :-0

[Zippeyrude]

my problem is they fucking stink

i used to, and as a cantankerous ex im entitled to bitch about them.

besides all the nhs bills they will run up due to poor health later on in life

The amount of people I know who are constantly bitching about how they have no money, or that their car is shit and needs this and that fixing and again they have no money, yet the stupid cunts will spend over £200/month on vile stinking cigarettes.

I don't detest smokers as such as a number of my friends smoke (although they know better than to smoke anywhere near me ) but I can't stand the "no money" whining and I absolutley detest those that stand near (as has been mentioned), hospital doors, other public places and the worst one, school gates.

I'm an ex smoker and just as cantankerous but the money argument doesn't hold up, smokers pay a HUGE amount of tax, the Government decide where it's spent.
They ARE smelly bastards though, the general fug is bad enough but a face full of smoker breath is disgusting!

If i see a smoker walking towards me in the street, ill either move out of their way, or if that isnt possible ill hold my breath for a good 15-20 seconds until im well passed them. fucking disgusting habit.

[WRATH OF BOD]

i stopped 4 years ago when the 1st e-cigs came out, i wanted to start again so last year i got my self some more upto date
e-cigs, i now vape away when i feel without the smell.

...another thing. What is it about some smokers that go outside...have their cigarette and then proceed to hold the last fucking inhale of smoke until they get indoors and the breath it out all over the place?

I can't understand how those on the dole can afford it ?

The cost thing reminds me of a joke:

Lady: Do you smoke?
Man: Yes
Lady: How many packs a day?
Man: 3 packs
Lady: How much per pack
Man: £10.00
Lady: And how long have you been smoking?
Man: 15 years
Lady: So 1 pack cost £10.00 and you have 3 packs a day which puts your spending each month at £900. In one year, it would be £10,800 correct?
Man: Correct
Lady: If in 1 year you spend £10,800 not accounting for inflation, the past 15 years puts your spending at £162,000 correct?
Man: Correct
Lady: Do you know that if you hadn't smoked, that money could have been put in a step-up interest savings account and after accounting for compound interest for the past 15 years, you could have now bought a Ferrari?
Man: Do you smoke?
Lady: No
Man: Where's your fucking Ferrari then?
