Giving out ciggeretes, and taking them...

I'm way out of balance on the cig tilt.. I've given away maybe 90% than bummed 10%. it's cuz of all my dumb ass broke ass friends. i bitch about it every time too.

I'll look a stranger in the eye and tell him i don't smoke... AS i'm hitting a cig. Fuck those assholes.

 

Handing out cancer sticks is tantamount to murder.

The gift that just keeps giving


hotwater

 

one thing i've often thought about doing is getting a old ass stale gross pack of cigarettes, and give them out to the people that bum smokes. Not to where the cigarette lookes fucked up, but is just extremely stale, maybe sitting somewhere collecting dust, too.. they won't bum smokes no more.

 

I used to give them out but then I started smoking rollies and realised that half the people asking for a smoke actually expected me to roll it too, and for that reason I just stopped bothering, unless its someone I can tell really really needs one and I have time to roll it for them.

I used to take them a fair amount but usually when drunk

 

when i drink, i give em out, but only if they can roll their own (i smoke roll-ups), sometimes when i'm in a particularly good mood i'll roll one for them, particularly if they're friendly and polite or if im having a conversation with them. but when people ask in a way which isn't so much asking as it is implying that i somehow owe them a fag, i find myself mysteriously dry all of a sudden.

i wouldn't give out straights if i smoked 'em. too expensive.

 

My fault sir, didnt see the a in it all...Its a big word

some of the people i give cigarettes to will die in other spectacular ways

 

the day op posted this .,. I was going to change the title to "giving out Blow jobs". cause there was very little comments and I thought it needed attention.. but its nice when a thread comes together..

 

yeah that would have caused a chuckle or two in a smokey room...AHAH get it?!??

 

if a strangers asks me for one I'll usually will hit them with the line, "sorry, this is my last one."

if I'm asking a stranger for one I'll usually offer him or her a quarter for one. maybe 50 cents.

 

well aren't you different. sir

 

Do it anyway!

Next time someone asks me for a cigarette I'm going to ask them for their lung. Fair exchange, I'm just waiting for the cancer to set in!

 

How would you feel about giving out heroin to heroin users?

 

depends

 

I could not. I smoked from age 13 to 27 and have been smoke free for almost two years. I can factually say that cigarettes are very harmful and probably would have killed me. After I quit, I felt like a new man after about a month. I'm never going back. To me, if I were to buy someone a pack (or give them one), it would be like me aiding someone with their own self-mutilation or suicide (I would not do either). I've have heard from most who smoked and did heroin, that cigarettes are more addicting. I have not done heroin, but I can believe that.

 

When I used to smoke when walking around my neighborhood people would bum them off me a lot. I didn't mind if I had just opened it but if it was almost empty I'd say I'm on my last one.

I never bummed cigarettes unless it was from someone I knew. I don't smoke anymore anyway.

 

Funniest episode!

But back to the subject...
I don't smoke often but when I do and I get asked I usually give out smokes to homeless people. But if they look underage or not homeless I usually say it's my last one.
