You say COLD, I say COPD

Did I mention mornings are hard for smokers?

They do a lot of coughing.

Mustang Sally

Here's a great potrayal of a smoker's cough on television. Fans of the Sopranos should recognize this clip.

Ashley Meadows

Some people only cough when smoking.



Ashley coughs all the time.

Don't let the coughing stop you

From enjoying your smoke mask.

Short Film: Tar

A dramatization of what happens to older smokers:

Smoking as Sport (NSFW)

Notice how hard he's breathing at the end.

Cough it up

The video is grainy & it doesn't look like this woman is smoking a cigarette, but she's got a good cough that comes in about 0:55.

Lung Cancer

What the end can look like for a smoker.

Smokers cough put to music

Sucking it in

Leathersmokemi loves smoking so much he scoffs down multiple smokes at the same time. He doesn't even let his coughing and wheezing from 1:49 - 2:10 stop him.

What does Bubba think?

He doesn't like all the anti-smoking measures.

Dark Side Fetish Primer

For those who don't already know. This post gives a good summary. I don't agree with everything here, but most of it is true. Here is the important graph:

When the smoking fetishist refers to the dark side what he means is that he revels in the inevitable damage a woman enslaved to a nicotine addiction will suffer in time. They treasure sexy women who smoke and they speak of positioning themselves in the smoker’s life so they can continue to encourage them to smoke and watch the inevitable damage the addiction will do. Voyeuristically, he watches as over the years she pays the price for being such a bad girl, so strong, so sexy, and so desirable when she smoked her cigarettes. Her addiction eventually destroys her. For some men they will be there to the very end... for others they will stay through the good times but take an early leave before the final curtain draws closed.

The small things in life

Love it when I find a cough in an unexpected place. Fast forward to the 6:28 mark



 Check this one about the 0:33 mark.
 

The hospital clerk and her cigs

Look at this video from the 56 mark to about a 1:30. A hospital clerk talks about her smoking habit and what it has done to her. I love her deep voice & the little cough she lets out.

An Abundance of COPD

According to this UNMC Today story there's a lot of folks with COPD nowadays.

The epidemic of cigarette smoking that began after World War II is taking a toll in the United States and in Europe in the form of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). COPD is the fourth leading cause of death in the U.S., and by 2020, is estimated to become the third-leading cause of death, said Stephen Rennard, M.D., Larson Professor of Medicine at UNMC.

So exactly what are the signs of this epidimic?

...smoker's cough may be the first sign of COPD, although it may take 30 or 40 years for some people to lose enough lung function to cause enough symptoms to seek a diagnosis. Dr. Rennard recommends all smokers get a lung function test that measures how much air a patient can blow out of their lungs.
"Most people accept the smoker's cough as being normal but it's not. Many people may believe the shortness of breath they get, the cough they have or their sputum production is just part of aging, but in fact, those are signs of disease," Dr. Rennard said. "People shouldn't accept those symptoms."

Here at Dark Side, we consider the signs of smoking a badge of honor, however if you don't like the coughing & losing your breath, there is help. Doctors suggest you seek treatment whether you chose to give up smoking or not. Like this woman:

Who says smokers don't live long?

Check the cough she lets out at the 14 second mark.
