I think they're kinda cool, not your everyday feline.
It seems the behave a lot like dogs, very a-typical behaviour.
But they're not for everybody, I agree.

If you pet them, they feel like a chamois. WEIRD HUH!

I quit smoking back when a pack of Camels cost 25 cents from a vending machine. I had three or four cigarettes and decided that was enough. It was a wise decision.

I've been floating in and out since the beginning.

I quit the day after the Eagles lost the superbowl in 2004. Haven't touched one since. Well...not true.

I mock my still-smoking friends by snatching their cigarettes and putting them in my mouth and letting them dangle without me inhaling or puffing. I talk BS for about 15 secs how weak they are, then i give it back.

LOL...

I started smoking when I was 13, I smoked till I caught my Baby smoking at age 13, we had a big argument and she told me she would quit if I did. well I finished my pack and put them down for 6 years. I just started back last year (stress, bad excuse but bite me) and I am done with them.

i smoke occasionally. i probably won't do it again, though. it really messes my lungs up for a couple of days if i have even one.

i started when i was 16. smoked for about 10 years, off and on, mostly on. my wife kinda put her foot down, so i made her happy and found that i was happy, too.

They have a more cult like following than most VWs... So if you can find one of those guys you are good as gold.... I would work it more on the VWVortex but I all but told those guys to eat shat and die... So....
