Question for smokers


Let's say you're watching a movie and character on screen smokes a cigarette. Do you suddenly feel the need to have a smoke too? I do sometimes.

reply

Not really. But it did get me into smoking again after quitting.

reply

Yeah. I do. But not always.

Signed, million man.

not really
i quit 5 years ago

Swayze did this

reply

No. I smoke but it has nothing to do with anything in media.

I remember several years ago there was some do-gooder campaign to ban smoking in films and on tv.

reply

If you're a smoker, damn near anything will make you feel like having a cigarette.

It was such a joy getting away from that compulsion, ages ago, for me.

reply

Good job!

I used to smoke, though I was never a heavy smoker. Many days I'd only have a few.

Seeing others smoking would definitely make me feel like having one though, especially if I'd been drinking.
