Do you smoke? What do you smoke? Is it a cigerette? A pipe? A cigar?
What are your feelings on smoking?
Does you company have a designated smoking area? Is it indoors or outdoors?
How do you feel about banning smoking in indoor public places like restaraunts?
Let's hear it PA!

I do not smoke and I happen to be allergic (like in sneezing jags allergic) to Marlboro Lights. If someone is smoking them around me, I keep sneezing until I can escape the smoke. I don't like smoking but I don't look down on anyone who does it. I just don't want to be around it.
We have a smoking area outside the building where I work. The inside is smoke free.
I'm all for smoke free restaurants. When I go to bars that allow smoking, the air is too stifling for me to be comfortable there. I hate to eat around cigarettes.

I smoke cigarette and am in the process of quitting
I liked smoking, but it's bad for me and expensive
no my company does not have a smoking area, we are banned from smoking anywhere on property
I like the smoking ban, it's nice to not have to smell the cig when eating. You should be able to smoke in bars though IMO

I quit smoking back in 1992. I smoked cigarettes when I was in the service then started smoking my pipe sometime in the 70's. I quit because I hated the smell of it and it made my clothes stink. My wife still smokes (die hard smoker) but not in the house or the car. I think they should ban smoking in ALL public places. Why should we as non smokers have to put up with someone else's second hand smoke. Heck, I like a drink once in a while. Does that mean I can leave my by product of the drinks on smokers? Just a joke.

Why would you want to blow smoke in a non smokers face? I've seen people get punched in the face for doing that exact same thing. It could be real dangerous doing that. I know if someone intentionally blew smoke in my face I would pop the sucker.

I smoke cigarettes but not in the house, car, or even a Restaurant that allows it. If it is raining real bad I will go to the smokers section or bar area that allows smoking. Believe it or not when I do smoke inside I feel guilty about it. I sure wish I could stop for my own good. I've solved the high cost of cigarettes by making my own (legal kind  ). It only costs me about 19 cents a pack.

I smoke... been wanting to quit. My husband doesn't want to quit, so it makes life difficult when I have gone all day without a smoke and come home and he is puffing away. And, of course, I weaken and smoke right along with him.
At the cost of $85 per week (2 cartons between the both of us) it can put a hurting on your bank account. I tried telling him that we could dump that in savings if we quit and be able to go to Australia in a couple of years for vacation.. Not enough motivation, apparently.

I smoked cigarettes for 10yrs. Quit 6 months ago. It's easy when your woman is yelling at you everyday and won't come near you cuz you smell of smoke. Yeah that helped.

No, don't smoke.
I wish no one did, but it's a matter of choice.
Outside the building
If a business owner allows smoking, that's fine, I just don't go there.

I smoke, but I have never yet once smoked around someone that does not or does not like it...
we smoke outside & quitting in the house has cut down a lot.
My daughter-in-law use to use a lot of foul language, I mean nasty & ugly words which
I am offended by cursing & vulgarity especially in a woman, she hates cigarette's smoke & I have never ever lite one around her, even in my house or close in the yard or in my car.
I always remind my husband not to smoke around her cause he will forget, but at the same time she knew I did not care for her choice of words, she would always look at me & give me a little grin knowing she just hurt my feelings or embarrassed or just simply teed me off!
So one day I had enough of her one sided world..................... I said simply,
you know what, I have bent over backwards for you in every way, yet you continue to upst me with your words, I have never even carried my purse or my case in your house much less smoked in there, yet you sit here & think you are too good to curve your mouth.
Now every time I hear a word that makes my skin crawl I will light up a cigarette in your face.........................
Little did she know that I would NOT have but Hey!!!!!!!!!!  she does not curse anymore
