Romeo Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 Government green paper outlines moves to encourage people to stop smoking by 2030. Will never happen in 11 years of course but a good move. Smoking addicts need saving from themselves. https://www.politicshome.com/news/uk/health-and-care/illnesstreatments/news/105176/ministers-plan-wipe-out-smoking-2030-leaked 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Romeo Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 Interesting when there are dubious research papers pertaining the use of these devices. Still I guess its safer than the 6000 chemicals in cigarettes. One step at a time and all that.Absolutely.Should be banned outright really. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob1885 Posted August 16, 2020 Share Posted August 16, 2020 as an "on/off" smoker (have quit once a year for about 4 months for the last 3 years and will puff to my hearts content when boozing) I find it very unattractive in a female. Yes it makes me a hypocrite. No, I dont care. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

May be some witchcraft and hypnosis but no willpower. You don’t even have to want to stop smoking. It just seems to flick a switch in your brain. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jambomo Posted August 17, 2020 Share Posted August 17, 2020 I read a few years back that if you smoke, people will view you as having less intelligence. I thought that seemed a bit far-fetched but as a non-smoker myself, I do find guys that smoke much less attractive to me and I realised that fair or not, I think they look less intelligent whilst smoking and that might be part of the reason for not finding them attractive. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Academically Deficient Posted August 17, 2020 Share Posted August 17, 2020 I know smoking seems a ridiculous thing to do for those who have never done it. But the psychology of the addiction is very powerful. Keith Richard's says it is easier to give up heroin. And he would know. I gave up 20 years ago but the urge for a fag with a drink is still there. I don't think it will ever go away. So, kids, don't ever start. Ever. I did a lot of daft shit as a youngster but that was the worst. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
