I have given up smoking

[dave the scaffolder]

I have now given up smoking for 5 weeks.
I feel great i am never out of breath anymore, and i seem to be a lot taller than previous.

The point i am getting to however is that i can now smell a smoker at twenty yards.
I find i am having trouble dancing with smokers, i can smell the smoke on their breath on their clothes and on their hair.

As an ex smoker i should not find this hard, but i do. I know that i must have smelt this bad when i smoked so how do non smokers get over this?

I am experiencing real difficulties with this.
Any advice would be appreciated greatly.

I'm an ex-smoker (11 years so far!), and FWIW I used to just wait until your back was turned, point at you and whisper about how disgusting you smelt.

[TheTramp]

I've never been a smoker, but it's really hideous isn't it.....

Personally, if I know someone has just been out to smoke, I generally try to avoid dancing with them for a while. Depending on how good a dancer they are, and how much I want to dance with them, the 'while' can last anything from 1 or 2 songs, to a lifetime!

Develop Anosmia like me. I never worry about people smelling of smoke any more.

As the ex webmaster of the Anosmia UK support group I'd be more than happy to suggest ways to acquire this most useful disability.

My personal favourite would have to be severe head trauma. Why not neglect to wear a hard hat while erecting your scaffolding.

Always happy to help sensible queries with sensible answers !

Well done for giving up Dave. Feel free to stick your tongue down my throat when ever you like now.

on a serious note though, really there's not much you can do , short of losing your sense of smell. Ironically one of the major causes of Anosmia (apart from Head trauma that is) is actually Smoking.

I've never experienced the smell of cigarette smoke (or ANY smell.. EVER for that matter) but I hear it is particularly repugnant. Unless you continually mask the smell somehow (chew mints perhaps?) then I don't know.

You could (now here's a thought) spray anyone that comes near you with a lit cigarette with air freshener. they might get the point and booger off. of course, they may also ignite and I've heard the smell of burning hair and flesh is considerably worse than cigarette smoke.. so perhaps spraying them with flammable aerosols isn't such a good idea after all.

Congrats on the stopping smoking though.. Look forward to tasting your food again (which may or may not be a good thing.. depending on how well trouble cooks )

I know a bloke called Dave
Who really likes to brag
He told us all about his gun
And that he no longer has a drag

He is a scaffolder by trade
And really works quite hard
He gets really really dirty
By the time he leaves his yard

He goes home to his little flat
And puts himself in the shower
He scrubs himself from tip to toe
And smells like a little flower

He would a little while ago,
Have gone and had a smoke
but now he hits the fridge
and gives the chocolate bar a poke

But now that this is said and done
He is moaning about the smell
Have you ever been around DTS
Cause his farts a lot as well

When this takes place you really should leave
Staying put would be quite mad
So DTS when your moaning about the smokers
Remember your wind is awful bad....

Well done mate! You've cracked it, it gets much easier from now on I quit about nine months ago now - from a 30+ a day for 30 years position so I know what you have achieved.

I don't know the answer to your question though, it is something that just doesn't bother me. For some reason I have no problem with people smoking around me, it doesn't upset me and it doesn't even give me the urge to smoke.

Live and let live?

Strange, Trouble and you don't strike me as especially nervous people and yet...

[TheTramp]

Just for the record, well done Dave. But don't even think about sticking.... No, it's too horrible to contemplate, I can't even finish this sentence

Trust me Gav, i get very nervous when DTS has wind which is 99% of the time. The reason my nose slightly curves up at the front is because the bottom of it melted.

you will also notice my eyebrows are burnt at both corners. This is the whiplash effect of running through the green haze.

Trust me Gav, i get very nervous is DTS has wind. The reason my nose slightly curves up at the front is because the bottom of it melted.

you will also notice my eyebrows are singed at both corners.

I cant believe you are complaining about Dave's wind.

We have a new name for you at the Hamilton/Ireland household....Walter the farting dog. (its the kids fav bedtime story)
