Well you do sound elitist Your basically stereotyping all smokers as trashy and I think you have absolutely no class your self. I think you need a reality check I have friends that smoke and friends who do not smoke and I love them all the same and you sound like a ignorant polly prissy pants.
What a crass generalization. I smoked for 30 years before quitting and I hardly fitted the description you’ve given of a smelly, ill-groomed, uncouth hillbilly. As for your pink lungs – they might not be as pink as you think given the pollution and spewing 18 wheelers out there.
HahahahaWhat an insecure loser.Get a life, OP. Nobody cares what you think. hahaha
To EVER NOTICE:I agree with you,you are absolutley right.
To EVER NOTICE:I agree with you,you are absolutley right.
EVER NOTICE:Ignore them all,when they’re on their death beds gasping for their last breath of air,wishing they had never smoked,who gets the last laugh?We do.
Yeah, right. Well, Kelly, dear girl, my grandma and aunt smoked into their 90s so blow it out your anal cavity. You don’t understand the first thing about nicotine addiction, nor what compels people to puff. Oh, and by the way, you don’t have to smoke to get lung cancer – just ask the ghost of Christopher Reeve’s wife.
I have to agree with the OP on this one. Although not everyone fits the profile ( TTFN ), i would have to say that a disproportionately high number of smokers fit this description as compared to non smokers. oh, and i have seen smokers smoking in a bus shelter on rainy days when other non smokers are huddled in there just trying to stay dry. ..FUCKERS!
Also have to agree with the OP. And I’m a smoker who does not fit the profile.But – Determinants of Health, kids. Smoking is now associated with less education, lower literacy, more unemployment, lower income, higher stress, higher rates of mental illness, etc. etc. It is a disease, largely, of the down and out.This does not mean that ALL smokers are like this. It does mean that people who are like this are much more likely to be smokers.Choose to use or not use the word “trashy”, due to its elitist, blame-the-victim connotations. But the shoe fits…But Kelly is still an immature, smug, prissy little cat-sweater piece of shit.
I forgot to mention obesity, poor nutrition and low self-esteem, but yu get the gist 😉
Here’s to EVER NOTICE. You elitist, You are neither a scientist, nor a very good judge of the human condition. Your ability to read people is about as good as the ability of a blind person to see. Go back to your kiddie science kit and blow yourself up already, and take Kelly with you. Of course one knows I’m not serious about the blowing up bit, but I hope you get my inference.
The OP is absolutely correct!When I was a smoker, I also picked my nose incessantly, ate Cheetos for breakfast, worked as a hooker down at the Dartmouth Marine Slips, and punched my Grandma in the face every day.Now that I’ve quit, I’ve found Jesus, won two silver medals in Olympic Spelunking, sold a screenplay to Spielberg and cured herpes. So OP, kudos to you for your high morals and keen observational skills!
Tasha, you always slay me with your fun fuckery, its hilarious shit as always.
Love your comeback, Tasha – made my day.
I like the ones that stand at a bus stop, get on the bus, and exhale on the bus…..now THAT is real class

Nobody liked Dennis Leary. Put a cork in it.
You’re out of your mind OP and everyone who has supported your sweeping statements are too.Barcode666… go back to your own country. American!!!!Jammie: Get over yourself, get real and GROW UP already!What’s wrong with you people?
What are you talking about Kay? I cited well established links between smoking and the determinants of health. Said nothing wacky or childish. There was nothing in this thread that requires “getting real” or “growing up”. Go take your meds and stop making your snappy little remarks just to get a rise out of people. That is the very definition of “troll”, toll.
I’ve noticed that elitist people are judgmental, think they’re better than everybody, and won’t admit they’re elitist… anyone else noticed that?
This is a ridiculous post. No wonder racism is still an issue in the Maritimes… see how you people think! Stupid. Limited. Outrageous!
Actually, OP, I haven’t noticed that. What I have noticed is that all three of my current fave movie actresses – Natalie Portman, Anne Hathaway, and my longtime old fave Drew Barrymore — are smokers. I wouldn’t throw any of them out of the house.
I dont think you should sterotype like that. I am tired of all these “smoker” bitches, honestly as you know I am a smoker and people dont believe me when i first meet them because I AM CLEAN.”you sound like a ignorant polly prissy pants.”I AGREE zAC
