If you wanna get the smell out of your car, or other small space, you can always cut 2 oranges and 2 apples into quarters, put em on a plate, and leave them in the enclosed space over night. Usually pulls the smell right out.
Do you now find that smokers stink?

Maybe Krythis can rub apples and oranges all over his gf's lips to get the smell off..hmmm
I smoked for over 25 years and now I cannot stand the smell. I pass by people that are smoking or who have just smoked and I say to myself yech, is that what I used to smell like? I sat on the train next to a lady who smelled like stale cigarette smoke and that was even worse!
wait a while kjj, it didn't bother me untill.. oh I'd say a couple of days ago, now it bugs me and it just gets worse with each day.
Yeah, I'm one of those guys.
I'm 6'5" and always held the cigarette over my head in any crowd. And when I went out front to have a cigarette at home, I would sit on the welcome mat with my back to the door, and I would rest my elbow on my knee so the cigarette stayed above my head.
And I would always inhale and exhale straight up over my head, and I would do it directly and quickly, to keep the smoke from lingering around me just to make sure I would have no smoke clinging to me when I went back inside.
And yet, when I would come back in from having a cigarette, and sit next to my wife, she would always wave her hand in front of her face and tell me I stunk. And I always thought she was full of crap, and I would tell her so, because I could not possibly have been more careful to NOT smell.
But she was right, and I was an smelly asspocket for more years than I care to think about.
But now everything has changed, and she even takes a drag off my electronic cigarette sometimes, depending on what my current mixture is. And she thinks I smell good now, and I am so happy to know that I am no longer making her suffocate for the my benefit of my habit of death.
I can't believe I would ever tell someone to move away while they were smoking, especially after having a cigarette in my hand for over 30yrs. My husband still smokes and I try not to say anything but if we're in a close area, I have to let him know how bad the smell is. It nearly makes me want to gag. He just gives me one of his "looks" and moves away. I've even had to get rid of some coats and purses because I can't get the smell of smoke out of them. I keep thinking " what were people (non smokers) thinking when I stood near them? wow, once your off analogs, you really see things differently.
Yes. I find that smokers stink. I still like the smell of an unlite cigarette, and sometimes even the smell of a burning one. But when a smoker walks by after having one...well, needless to say... I've made a few apologize for subjecting others to the stench.

I was downwind, had to move upwind. The smell was just plain nasty. From now on, I'll just avoid it. If someone wants to smoke, its their own business, but I'd rather not be a part of it. If someone wants help in quitting, I'm already marked out. I'm glad to help.
YES they stink.
I can now tell who is coming into my office without turning around if they are the smokers. One smokes very heavy and smells very strong, the other has a lighter tobacco scent.
LOL now they think I have eyes in the back of my head!

By repeating this nonsense straight from the anti-smokers' manual, one DOES become a smoke NAZI. Hearing this from people who themselves were smokers maybe a week or month ago makes me want to light several Marlboros and smoke them all at once.An emphatic "YES"!
I hope that I do not become one of those people with an "anti-smoking" attitude, but at the same time I'm beginning to find the smell of cigarette smoke offensive for the first time in my life. In the meantime, I'll just casually move away from them.
Got a married couple I'm friends with and they still smoke----at their house, they smoke in an enclosed porch.
Walking through it just about knocks me over.
If I stand out there talking, just a few minutes, I can smell it on my clothes all day. I also have a coat that I have just to wear there and I hang it in the garage.

over 30 years of 2.5 packs and I used to get mad at the kids when they complained I smelled, how dare they, I'd take a whiff and thought I smelled fine! Now I can smell smoke and feel bad what I put them through. I can't stand the smell of analog smoke now, I have nothing against a smoker except I really, really can't stand the smell! It's disgusting to me to the point of almost vomiting, I'm serious! How ironic.
The smell of the cig in the air doesn't bother me at all, but the lingering smell on the person stinks! So glad I don't smell like that anymore 
I prefer the term 'born again breather' to quote Kirk Laurie, a friend of mine from undergrad. (Who, ironically, has become one of them in the interim.)
Yet, beliefs aside, I don't think it's nonsense. It's not a phantom scent or in my head, it's a fact. The nose knows. Say what you will, but if you've abstained for just a bit, stale smoke stinks.
I'm starting to call tobacco cigarettes 'stink sticks' instead of analogs.
The smell is the reason I have not gone back. I have been cigarette free since Nov 24, 2009 and have been craving a cigarette for the past month. Two huge, not nice, behind closed doors.....Breakdowns........
My better half quit smoking years ago and has never said an ugly word to me about smoking. Since I quit, I have picked up on the stinch and do not want to be a part of the smelly group. This is hard, hard, hard. I continue to up the nicotine and still crave from time to time.........................A CIGARETTE.
It AIN"T EASY.......

I am able to sit with the smokers at lunch time at my workplace. It does not really bother me. It is the ashtrays with either smoldering or completely out cigs that really get to me. Also peoples breath when they come up to me and talk to me.
Sorry, but your repetition of this garbage gives ammunition to the anti-smokers. If you think that the same words will not come back to describe vapers, then you are fooling yourself. It is creeping in day by day...look at the "third hand smoke" study and the crafty inclusion of e cigs in that study. The vaping/smoking issue is indeed one and the same. I find the use of anti-smokers rhetoric more troubling in ex-smokers and vapers than I do in non-smokers. You will become your own worst enemy by repeating this garbage.I prefer the term 'born again breather' to quote Kirk Laurie, a friend of mine from undergrad.
