    Heck, when I was 14 I'd drive the pickup down to the store and buy cigarettes and beer for my dad. Hahah. Times change.

    I'm done posting to this thread, I was expecting rational discussion but it seems that's totally absent from here. I think I've lost hope in finding anyone willing to discuss things and not moaning about it in this 21st century.

    It would avoid people calling Trump a fascist when he raises legitimate issues, or shutting down every women since a minority of them are feminazis.

    Do you have anything useful to contribute? You seem to have mainly been making inane comments.

    Controls are tighter in the UK I think - I remember being carded to buy cigarettes when i was 16 (I think its 18 or even 21 now) that said of course you could get someones big brother to buy them so its not exactly fool proof

    Is this argument helping the poster quit smoking?

    I think it could go on and on really....this fight. Shall we call it a day then?

    I had a suspicion from the start. Just needed a few other bit of evidence to fall into place. His King Arthur account was equally fascinated with Anglo-Saxon history, as mentioned in the intro post to this account. Anywho... Gone.

    you'd think someone with an interesting hobby would have less time on their hands ... I really feel sorry for these people, their lives must really suck if trolling is how they like to spend their Friday night

    There's only one numpty fighting and hes been ban hammered so we can all go back to trying to help deadrats quit

    ref your point earlier about vaping - its safer but that isn't the same thing as safe as a) you are still getting the nicotine which isnt great for you and b) vaping hasn't been around long enough to see what ill health effects might result from its other ingredients (remember that its not that long ago that people were saying that cigarettes were safe)

    Rule #1 of the internet- never feed the trolls. haha.

    That is true. I think it's definitely better to not do either.

    There was a thread in his prior incarnation making quite a kerfuffle over modern people knowing whether or not ancient Romans and their contemporaries wore socks or not, some unnameable calamity sure to fall upon us who were misinformed as to the footwear habits of ancient peoples. :rolleyes:

    I'm fairly sure they didn't, but I'm absolutely sure I don't give enough of a toss to argue about it. What a sad sad man

    Want to quit smoking? I say go for it. I care for a 91 year old woman that has smoked since she was 13. I get to comfort her as she slowly drowns in her own fluids all day every day. Her only relief at this point is more smoking to keep the racking coughs away.

    Do you have access to mac addresses?
