You mean "an athlet" ?!!! confused.gif

Running after beautiful new chicks, I presume? that's good sport!!! beerchug.gif

***
I smoke a few cigarettes a day, in open spaces, and never in the presence of children. I can stop smoking for one or two months, but I recommence because of stress at my work.

I believe that we Viets are 98% smoking some crack and cig...But me, I never smoke in my life but i eat too much... cool30.gif
LoveMakesYouFat
I don't smoke.

I'm against it, to me, it's like buying yellow teeth and possibly cancer, never made sense to me. Always refused cigs from people on that basis.

What kind of job do you do that requires you to smoke to reduce stress? confused.gif
asian_invasion
Don't smoke, only tried it a few times, doesn't really do anything for you except give you bad breath.

My Dad smokes a pack a day. He's been doing so for twenty years =/
I guess I don't really blame him, growing up in Vietnam, living through the war and having two children (my brother and sister) die to malaria during the time.

Isn't the real statistic more like 80%? Still a crazy number though eh.
ngo.ngochy
99%, 98%, 80%?? I know it's okay to smoke in VN, but I don't think the rate is that high...

My dad smokes, he quit when my mom got pregnant, and hasn't smoke since.
Some of my uncles smoke, some don't, my aunts don't.
All my cousins don't smoke (guys and girls).

I toldl people that smoking is bad for their health, but if they don't quit then don't smoke in front of me, because if I ever get cancer I'll kill them.

I read it somewhere half a year ago or so. I thought it was quite high too, but it was right there, it was around 80% or something, maybe a bit lower or higher, can't remember. It's fricken high in VN. Tobacco companies making a killing in VN.
Nam Quoc Son Ha
LOL I was exaggerating abit. embarassedlaugh.gif But yeah, Vietnamese rate is probably only smaller than China's.

Only my dad and my uncle smokes though. I think it is extremely distasteful for women to smoke. nono.gif nono.gif nono.gif

NOT sexy at all. embarassedlaugh.gif In movies they show all these women who are ALREADY sexy smoke, with the fricken nicest body around. Then they smoke and blow smoke into your face seductively. In real life it's just a bunch of fat girls smoking who walks funny, DON'T SMOKE (no offence, but it just seems like it around where i live).
ngo.ngochy
Women are like 50+% of the population and most don't smoke, so 80% is like impossible.. maybe it's for men only? but to me it's still high...
Nam Quoc Son Ha
I specifically stated that the statistics are referring to me.. only.

I think it was for men only. Women were much lower i think.

i think asians are less likely to get cancer from smoking. just like blacks are MORE likely to get cancer from smoking. they smoke unfiltered cigarettes and drink hard liquor and live to be in thier 80's and 90's eek.gif

I don't smoke. Well except for this one time a while ago when I took one puff to see what it was like. Tasted like $hit. I can't believe people actually smoke all the time. I guess some people easily fall for peer pressure. icon_smile.gif
