Hahaha.. she's lighting up on her 100th b-day candles! Saving that picture!!

you know that there was a lot of people that got shot and lived? so let's all jump in front of a bullet.

Cigarettes should be destroyed from the face of the earth.

 

[Torre82]

A couple cigs a day is easily comparable to a few drinks a day.. or exfoliating dead skin with an abrasive brush on yer face. Or getting a cold a couple times a year to keep up your immune system.

The body does fine by itself.. but works better with a little nudge every day.

Use it or lose it.

 

[L3ggy]

What has cigarettes/cigars to do with the Immune system?

 

[calpoon]

if you want to work your body out you can always try.. ugh, working out. jogging or swimming is probably a better way to "nudge" your heart and lungs than inhaling smoke and tar.

Keep it up Smoke more!!!

I do have one question. Especially been a ex-smoker.

How the hell does anyone know this is her 170,000th cigarette?

No smoker in the world counts every one they smoke. Plus at different times you some different amounts. So you can't work it out that way either. So unless since her very first one she's kept a record which I very much doubt.

Yeah I agree I don't count mine but I need to quit very bad habit.

Good for him!

 

[D-rock]

Watch her end up living to be one day short of the world record for age and then regret smoking because she would have had a chance to blow the record away. :tongue:

 

[jamrak]

this is the case not to make far-going conclusions from

She said she smoked 5 a day only all her life. I suppose they just figured it on that. Surprise, some do count. My friend Helen's aunt smoked only three a day. One after each meal with tea. *shrugs*


Never any rhyme or reason to life. :dunno: That lady looks strong as a bull for 100. My gram died of lung cancer and never smoked. Nor was she ever exposed to secondhand smoke. Way before her time, she didn't allow it in her home EVER , my pop and uncles had to go to the 'road' (end of drive) after supper to do their sinning as she put it. lol They couldn't even sit on the porch since it waffed into the house.

May she be blessed with many more. arty:

I had to look at the title of the topic twice. I thought it said Britney Spears celebrates her 25th birthday by smoking her 170,000th cigarette.

In February I will celebrate my ...birthday by smoking my 4,680th joint.impdaddy

Smoke 'em if you got 'em.

 

[Becks...poamr]

Despite the numerous health warnings, Mrs Langley insists she's never suffered because of the habit as she "has never inhaled".

Interesting.

Some half oral fixation or something?

 

[squallumz]

talk about tempting fate.

one smoker lives 100 years, another one dies from cancer 2 years into it. ah, the great balance!

I hear ya. I think I'll probably spend my 100th birthday celebrating by sipping my 250,000th cup of ramen noddles, through a straw.
