You keep comparing it to other bad things to make it look good LMAO I never said I support any of the other things and obesity simply doesn't fall in the same category as its only harmful to the person consuming the food

No it's not, obese parents cook the same s***food for their children/relatives cause that's all they eat

see what I'm sayin?

I'm not hating on you for promoting being healthy...I'm hating on you for acting like smoking is the worst habit one can have

Perhaps but even then that doesn't make cigs any better like I already said. And there's no direct solution to that people that eat like trash will always do that, you can't make all the bad ingredients illegal, you can with cigs

Besides doing hardcore d**** it pretty much is
Oh and alcoholics are worse but that's about it

It's true bro but it's okay to defend your addiction I would defend social media too its a normal thing our brains do

i'm not defending my cigarette use, i'm defending my right to smoke you fascist

mans came here baiting and teasing about diseases like we aren't well aware. why don't you go do the same in the d*** thread? there are plenty of people addicted to narcotics there and do the same? or do you feel like that's outta bounds?

why stop at cigarettes mate
spread your aggressive non tolerance philosophy for the people addicted to benzos there, we need you

Chill lmao I was just bored also them taking pills doesn't really affect me in any way so I have no place to speak on that. Whereas smokers do affect me as my mom smokes 3 packs a day inside and has been doing that probably since I was born God knows what my lungs look like and I never made that choice and there's nothing I can do about it that's my whole issue about it

but this a shamying thread like u said innit?? substance abuse as substance abuse. go school us on d***g use

why hav any non-shamin threads for dnagerous substances??? go reform the d*** thread and while you're at it call us names and tell us we're gonna die soon yeh

do those have them stupid flow filters?

These things are a b**** to quit.

Smoking is the best thing in the whole world
No lies. It is the BEST thing. It creates a problem and it solves it. It is like winning the lottery fifteen times a day.
I knew about heroin. I knew about cocaine. I knew heroin would feel like the best o***** I've ever had times a thousand. I knew cocaine would make me feel sexier than god but also like, if I got in a fight with god, I would win. I knew X would make every weekend better so long as I had it. I stayed FAR FAR away from that s***. Good things are good until you don't have them and then life sucks beyond the telling of it. I had a handle on that.
The only thing people told me about cigarettes was how much they sucked. Kissing a smoker was like licking an ashtray. They'll rob you blind. You'll die early. You'll smell bad. You'll talk through a hole in your throat. I watched them slowly march my father closer to death. Don't smoke.....easy enough.
Here's the problem: if cigarettes are so nasty and terrible you have nothing to worry about. Have one. Have another. You'd never be stupid enough to fall into that trap, right? You can be that magic unicorn that can just have one socially with your friends, right? After all, people who get hooked get hooked before they turn 18 and you're nineteen so you're past the cutoff? Plus you're so smart! You'd never do something as dumb as getting addicted to the dumbest, most loserish d*** on the market, right?
It's never going to be you. Because smoking seems so innocuous. You know that 1/3 people who try heroin are addicted the first time out, but how can smoking, something so stupid, be so dangerous? It's just one cigarette....and the first time that's true! The first time you don't like it and it was as awful as you were expecting and you're completely disarmed for what's coming for you.
Then it's a long weekend of drinking in college and your friends smoke and they keep going outside to do so and you get curious again or you want to be "in" and the first one did NOTHING do you have the second. Then the eighth. And then it's only on the weekends. And then it's only while you drink. And then you "cut back" and only smoke when your friends have them (and they ALWAYS have them). You kind of know, in the back of your head, that you want them but you'd have to be stupid (remember?) to fall in that pit. You're crazy smart and good at life and you know all the facts and you'd never be that kid.
Here's where it gets serious: something terrible happens. You get broken up with, your dog gets hit by a car, you fail a class, something goes to hell in a hand basket. So you reward yourself with this self-destructive thing. Just for now. Just because this s***ty thing has befallen you. So you go and buy some and you feel dirty doing it but feeling dirty is part and parcel with the s***ty thing that happened. And you feel like an adult. And you feel like you're coping even though you're doing anything but.
Cigarettes are the best part of your day. The feeling of wanting one and then getting one is straight up euphoria. In a world of turmoil and despair, they become your favorite life raft. They make everything better, they make everything that sucks immediately suck less. And that's why they are IMPOSSIBLE to quit. You know you're sinking, and you will do nothing. You'll suddenly come to the realization that you've become a smoker (how the f*** did that happen?) but you won't care. Because the best part of your day is this s***ty, expensive, debilitating thing. It's like having a crush on someone who doesn't love you back or having a really arrogant best friend. You love them all the more for how much the situation sucks.

POST LIMIT

At some point you realize you have to quit but you can't. S***ty things keep happening. Your job sucks, your relationship sucks, your classes suck. Finals are coming, your taxes are due, your friend is imploding in front of your face. Any stress, any little thing, becomes unbearable and you need that solution/problem in one to make it seem surmountable. You'll feel like your whole life is caving in and then you have a smoke and you're fine again. For twenty minutes. And twenty minutes is really all you need...for now. Until that time passes and you need it again. And in the back of your head you are RANTING at yourself about how dumb this is and how much you hate yourself for being this person but the pleasure, the relief, drowns it out.
You don't get it. You can't. If you never went down the rabbit hole, it won't make sense to you. If you have gone down the rabbit hole, it won't really make sense either. But you will get why you do it to a certain extent.

We all made the decision to never smoke. Some of us just f***ed it up without meaning to. It was not all at once or with intention. It just happens. All the health facts and scary stories in the world won't change it. The thing that will change it is arming people with the foreknowledge that smoking is the best thing ever. That's what would have saved me. I've quit for two years and that's great, but I'm still not over it. It's still a thing for me. If you don't get it, be GLAD not arrogant. It could have easily been you.

When I used to smoke I liked Spirit Yellows, Marb Lights, Parliaments, and Lucky Strike filtered (had a friend bring them to the US before)

Currently smoking 1-2 packs a day.
Brand of choice atm below.

Gotta say the ones they got in Turkey taste better tho.

Delete this post nephew. Peace be upon your soul for this f***ery

People are wild for still doing this s***

And then throwing your buds on the floor smh

If y’all don’t care about your own body, at least care about the earth and throw that s*** in the trash smh
