Well, last year I was at 20/day and sometimes more. My next target is 8/day, should be there before Christmas.

Being back on NSG is going to shoot me up to 2 packs a day.

Yeah, I'm at 15-20 on average. 30-40 if I drink that day.

Have you considered nicotine patches?

I had the temptation of smoking even my shoes last night in the Falklands thread. I can only imagine how much worse it can be for the mods.

Do the same poll but for weed!

Those were my only option in the hospital. So I tried it. And they apparently make me pass out.

No. To me it's not the nicotine, it's the smell and the gestures. I'll keep reducing until the day when the smell will just disgust me I guess.

Dose too strong, or it just doesn't work for you? When grad school stressed me out I would sometimes use two at a time. Helps me think.

I can sympathize.

I was only using one, for whatever reason I was fine for an hour, dizzy for two hours, and waking up on the floor sometime afterward.

Sounds like a party. All for the price of a nicotine patch.

I don't like the smell of cigarette smoke, so the idea of inhaling it in copious amounts on purpose does not appeal to me whatsoever. Oh yeah, and if it wasn't already gross, it gives you cancer and lung disease. No thanks.

I never have, and I hope I never will.

Oh, yes. You get the superpower to make annoying people go away. The people who bitch about everything? Light up. guarantee they'll run for cover.

You mean I don't get mind powers or super-speed? Rip off dude.

You probably won't get fucking cancer from drinking.

Drinkers, even heavy drinkers, tend to live longer than those who don't. Which means we'll probably live long enough to get cancer from something.

I used to smoke heavily during my first year of university, but I think I've quit (mostly). Now I only smoke when I'm stressed or while consuming alcohol.

The rising cigarette prices don't help, either. Last I was in Ankara, we were buying a load of tobacco and wrapping our own cigarettes.

by **Egoman** » Thu Jul 09, 2015 8:08 am

I tried smoking once. I threw up afterwards. Fuck tobacco. Now weed, on the other hand...

Mess off, it's great.

Yes, I do on occasion smoke a pipe (let me clarify; tobacco pipe. Not the other kind of pipe). I could never get used to the taste of cigarettes, they were awful to me. Now, pipe tobacco has a very different taste to me, and the entire process is relaxing to me. So I mostly do it when I've had a bad day. I also like Mu‘assel (shisha) from time to time. Personally, I'm a dipper more than a smoker.

thank goodness for coffee and cigarettes

That's really a lot. 30/40. :/

Smokers of NationStates?

Do you smoke any form of tobacco?
