Chewing vs. Smoking

I like how people take one possible scenario from each thing, and make it seem like it is a fact and the only thing that will happen. (See above)
 
You're right OP, but they're still both detrimental to your health, and not worth the risks in my opinion.
 
I agree chewing is harmless and smoking kills
 
Theres a large difference between chewing tobacco and smoking cigarettes. Inside of cigarettes consists of something called nicotine, which is know as the substance which acts as a stimulant in humans and is one of the main factors responsible for the dependence-forming properties of smoking. Without nicotine in chewing tobacco, we are not physically addicted to chewing tobacco, making it possible to end, without a real addiction. So I would say its far safer to pack a lip once or twice a week rather than smoke a pack twice a week. Smoking disrupts many things in your body and can lead to malfunctions and possibly to the detrimental heart attack.

I wish I could Chew so I could look like that.

Now, aside from that, if you don't know my opinions on tobacco, here they are.

I am highly against all recreational drugs from chewing, smoking, pot, X, crack, the whole nine yards.

But, seeing as this thread is only about Smoking and Chewing, I'll focus on these.

If you are in your home, or in a remote location where your cigarette second hand smoke has no measurable effect, then smoke your brains out, I could care less. But I feel strongly that smoking should be banned in all public areas. This goes for streets, bus stops, parks, etc. If a privately owned bar wants to allow smoking, then whatever, let them. If they are not private, but rather public (this means you can buy their stock) then smoking should be banned there as well.

It's not right to make others suffer the consequences of your bad habbit. I don't care if your addicted to smoking, your weak and until you quit, get the fuck out of my sight. (Yes, I meant what I said).

Chewing... ehh, there are no second hand effects other than personal ones, so I don't have a problem with it. As long as your spit ends up in a trash can, do it for all I care.

Cost of the tobacco is of no concern to me, and in my opinion, it should be 3 or 4 times the current price. More tax dollars for our wonderful government. It would also promote less people to smoke, namely because they could not afford it.

But yeah, that's my opinion. If you want to ruin your teeth, generate terrible hygene for yourself, and waste all your money on cancer causing agents, then do it.

Just don't do it in any public place.

Judging by his facial blemishes and color of his facial hair I would say that he is ~60? I really doubt anybody chewing at the ager they are right now (on sythe) ill be chewing when they are past age 25.

Umm, what the hell are you talking about? Chewing tobacco DOES have nicotine in it and is JUST as addictive as cigarettes.
 
Thanks for the pic I will now never chew or smoke and will now have nightmares.

There are millions of people who chew. Thats one picture.
 
A guy named Rick Bender lost about 1/4th of his head due to a rare disease of chew. He chewed daily, like every other person that chews, and he lost the bottom right part of his head. Thankfully he quit.


I would say chewing is better because is doesn't stink and other people cannot be harmed by your use of it, and the price is a huge difference!

Although neither of them are good, I say chew is better.
 
I read some of these replies, and laughed so hard, the people thinking about chewing gum was the funniest.

Anyway, I used to smoke, and now I'm so glad I quit, and Yes, I do Dip now.


Dipping is so much better, less smell ETC like Shakaka said.

Edit: Shakaka, Where do you live, Grizzly is only $1.89 down here.
 
I live in Michigan I hear its cheaper in the south though.
 
Well ive never had chewing tobacco They dont sell it in England i dont think but yh smoking is better !

They sell it in England, believe me. Chewing tobacco is everywhere..
 
I smoke a pack a day, I tryed dip acouple times and don't like it as much. If i'm dying from cancer then I'll be up in smoke before I go, instead of a mouth full of dip.
