    I actually had no idea how smelly I was when I was smoking cigs :o ... Its funny how the smell becomes more pronounced when one stops smoking. Oh well, I am not one to trample on anyones right to smoke, however I am pretty damn happy that I havn't touched one since May of 2008!!! yeah. :mrgreen:
    Nothing said what a waste :)

    Oh yes...and the price is extra high in New York State. My husband and I quit together...right before the last tax increase that was put in place by NYS. I think in most areas a pack name brand cigs will run you over $10.

    Yeah I'm in NYS as well. It's about 10 bucks here to in Smalbany. I also see cigs advertised at the "state minimum" price which I don't know what that means but evidently it's the government trying to regulate smoking through price I guess.

    This is one habit I'm glad never stuck with me. ANd being in the car business...smokers have no idea how much it affects your car's value. That smell never comes out...and we notice and so do customers.
    and even if you don't smoke in the actual car, but if you smell like smoke before you get in it, the car will still smell. It's crazy how much the smell lingers. Whenever my mom sends me something in the mail I can tell as soon as I open up the mailbox :?

    Oh gosh, yes - the smell totally lingers. My boss at my old job would pick up work orders on his way home, so they'd sit in his car with him smoking all the way home and back to office. The smell would never air out of those papers. Disgusting.

    I've grown completely intolerant to the smell of cigarettes. I have no idea how we all dealt with it for so many years. Now, I get pissed if I end up walking behind a smoker on my way to work. I don't want any of that odor to cling to me.

    But, I still like clove cigarettes. And, I'm still pissed at Obama for banning them.

    So we used to have a smoker stall thing that was a good 50 yards to the left of the front door to our building. Recently we moved to the other side of the building (place is humongous) and now the smoker stall is literally about a 30 foot walk directly out of the door. No escaping it. Have to walk right past those smelly people going in and out of the office every day. Why on earth would someone decide that would be an acceptable place for a smoker stall? So annoying.

    And yes---same people, every hour on the hour out for a smoke break.

    Not entirely sure why I just read through this entire thread, but as someone working on quitting the cigarettes (but not the weed, lol), all I can say is wow. Just, wow, and not in a good way. As was mentioned upthread, if other groups were talked about the way smokers have been here, it would be utterly unacceptable.

    Good for you. I hope you succeed in quitting.

    greatest thing for bars and restaurants was banning smoking. i remember bars and restaurants in the Philly area bitching that it would kill their business when it was proposed a decade or so ago and yet they are thriving these days. and i can't even imagine back in the day being on an airplane when smoking was allowed. dear god that had to be awful.
