it's only a reliever of it's own withdrawal you idiots, nicotine isn't some super stimulant to keep you happy, it's just relieving yourself from the crash you get from not satisfying the addiction. Just like caffeine, it doesn't wake you up, it brings you back to the level you would be at if you weren't suffering withdrawals.

Smoking is great to make small talk and meet people.

There is this qt girl that leaves in front of me and she is much younger but one day I noticed she was having a party. At one point she went outside with a friend so I went outside for a smoke.

I ended up talking to her a little and she invited me in for drink. I'm a pussy though so I refused and went back inside to watch tv.

I know some people who smoke, its not attractive, some hot chick might still be hot, but given a hot chick and a smoking hot chick, I'd drop the smoker in a second.

why dont you just advocate for abstinence only sex ed while youre at it.

To answer seriously, it's because people in the west have no culture of meditation or prayer. You need some sort of activity that distracts the mind and lets you reset your mind. It's possible to make your thoughts simply flow all day, but a reset is always helpful and welcome.
Alternatives to smoking are prayer, meditation or simply physical exercise.

Anyone that thinks there's no high to smoking is a fag who just mouth breathes to look cool. I started smoking when I was up really late writing my dissertation because I needed five minute breaks to unwind and I'd already had experience with nicotine patches so I knew a rough idea of what a nicotine high feels like.

I started out having just one cigarette and lying down enjoying the full body tingling and feeling the stress melt away for a good 10 minutes. Then it started taking two cigarettes in quick session. At my worst I was sucking down two packs to try and reach that high, I then realised that every drug is best enjoyed with long breaks between uses. So now I wait 3 or 4 months of not smoking and treat myself to a whole delicious pack with a nice beer in the evening. It is literally bliss. I could just not pick it up again but I honestly love the rush, the warm relaxing feeling. I've done many drugs before and since cigarettes but they'll be the ones I always come back to.


tl;dr cigarettes have a great high if you know how to smoke, fags just pretend to like them to look cool.

To anyone saying stress relief or stimulant...

You do realize that a energy drink, cup of coffee, or even a fucking apple, are all as stimulating

And if you can't manage your own stress with your own willpower (hard to believe imo, unless you are a cop or a surgeon or a lawyer or something) then going for a walk/run, working out or mediating are all more beneficial than a cig

Nigger addiction isn't a fucking meme. My dad finally quit smoking and it took him at least half of a year to tone the cravings down by chewing bubble gum and eating hard candies and he was a giant fucking bitch the entire time.

They do. I get a hard buzz after not having a cigarette for a few hours, and they immediately take me from level 8 to level 4, if I had to do something stressful for work or so. They also suppress the appetite and keep my cheek indentions noticeable and my jawline sharp.

No one's here to say they're good for you but I'd much prefer to be a smoker than some fat suburbanite waddling through a Costco on a Sunday afternoon, upset that someone is having a cigarette fifty feet downwind from me.

It's people that criticize smoking while being overweight, or anyone that vapes, those are the people I truly have no respect for.
