Bleh... I tried those Herbal Ciggarettes once... I didn't like them much. Although, I don't think that they do much harm. There is always the chance when you inhale smoke into your lungs of damage, I don't think that it's as bad as regular cigarettes, but it's still there.

All I will say is, look at it from the point of view of someone who has had a stroke.

They would love all of the things you take for granted health wise and, if I were in her shoes, it would probably tick me off if someone was abusing something they were lucky to have.

As for the obese chick.. she has to eat. You don't have to smoke.

yeah. but its barerly anything. running in winter is probalby worse than what herbs do to me.

and i dont do the cigarettes, i use a bowl so its not as bad for my lungs (the paper in teh cigarettes are actually the worst thing for your lungs in a cigarette)

She doesn't have to eat amounts so large and shun exercising to the point that she's obese.

@Danger_Mouse Said

Surely that would depend on the reason for being obese. Jumping to a fairly rash generalisation assuming she eats too much and doesn't exercise.

The papers? I don't think so it's the chemicals put in tobacco that's bad for you hence chewing tobacco is liable to give you cancer of the mouth.

@not4sale Said

What would you suggest as a possible cause?

@puala__koala Said

okay, so my friend yells at me every day because i smoke herbs, even though theyre completely legal. first of all, i havent smoked in over a month, and when i do smoke i make sure its something thats not bad for me. i dont even smoke weed (not that its legal..)
she b****es at me because she got a stroke, and that if im disregarding my health like that its wrong because she cant be healthy. i feel sorry for her, but i still think its really uncalled for her to tell me that im gonna harm myself because i smoke every once in a while.
if she just told me this, i really wouldnt care, the thing that pisses me off is that theres this girl who sits at our lunch table who is obese. and im not saying this in a mean way, im saying that its unfair that she b****es at me for "disregarding my health" (which isnt really that bad, i always check to make sure that what im smoking is safe) when theres this girl next to us who is "disregarding her health" right in front of her face.

but seriously though, am i just being stubborn, or is she just saying all of this because shes against drugs?

and also, dont i have the right to do whatever i want with my health (i mean, as long as im not harming myself to the point where its fatal)?
so yeah, what do you guys thing
