Smoking in the Toilet???

[Barnsley]

As a non-smoker , I would like to ask smokers if there is a benefit to smoking whilst "sat on the throne?"

This week I have "benefited" a couple of times from some fella smoking in the shopping mall toilets?

I ask if there is some kind of hormonal release that gives a high when smoking whilst dumping , as it can't have been more than 30 secs stroll to a designated outside smoking point.

Kill the smell?

Kill the smell?

Partly some smoke to kill the smell but I can't get myself to multi task if the toilet is smelly ... and smoking in my opinion it doesn't help to kill the smell ...

Sometimes it's heavenly to have a coffee in the morning following by a poop while smoking ... (but not in public toilets ..... )

As an occasional smoker:

In the example, it's perhaps someone dossing from work, who doesn't want to be seen hanging around (and not at work) smoking in a permitted smoking area.

Onto physiological matters. Yes puffing hard on a fag can have the precise same effect as having a strong coffee/tea*, it tends to ahem... 'get things moving'. But you'd have to be rather misguided or desperate to sit on the loo smoking in order to go. Nope, I'd go for suggestion 1 above.


* For some people having an ice-cold drink can do the same, even just water.

Whatever happened to just eating more dietary fiber...

Does beer count as lot of fibre ?

Get Your Bowels Going

No one really thinks beer has fiber, but it is made from barley. Beer contains beta-glucans, a soluble fiber which acts as a natural laxative and the only dietary fiber noted to reduce risk of disease. Lager has 0.75 grams of fiber per bottle, and dark beer has 1.3 grams, so get sipping and get your bowels going.

It's from the internet so it must be true!

Re the OP: Probably to kill time and use the opportunity to smoke. If they want to kill the smell they would eat durian.

A smoker is a smoker.

These people who smoke in toilets are simply exhibiting a complete inability to control themselves, even by smokers' standards. They are too lazy and inconsiderate to excuse themselves somewhere else, plain and simple.

Anyone who doesn't want to be seen hanging around the smoking area and smokes in a tiny enclosed toilet cubicle is going to bring a smell back to his (maybe women smoke inside too, I wouldn't know though) work area so bad it tells everyone except the least clued up, 'I just had a ciggie'.

Kill the smell? Flimsiest excuse ever, and that's just what it is, an excuse. Don't have time to walk to smoking area? Simply another one, 'I'll simply stroll to the toilet and have a very leisurely smoke in there'.

I don't encounter these very often, except in hawker centers. Those I don't bother to do anything about. It's probably pointless. It's like trying to tell the 70 year old uncle cycling very precariously at night on a rickety bicycle carrying a heavy load of stuff picked up from rubbish bins that he needs reflectors and regular tune ups for his bicycle.

Well, I had a colleague who tried to cut down smoking, and his solution was to smoke half a stick and keep the other half for his next round.

Till One day, I put a half smoked stick in a zip lock bag, and next day asked him to smell it, he went like it's horrible

Then I told him, that's how he smells, when keeping half a stick, and he doesn't know the stink because his nose is a bit attuned to it .. sort of like how some people can't smell their own perfume ..

x9200, smoking and trying Durian ? well, it may be a bit tricky
