They're good for focus and concentration; heightened cognitive function; mood stabilization; all at a cost though. I would recommend chewing nicotine gum instead. Similar benefits with less risks. If you're going to smoke, make sure the rest of your health is on point. Good diet, intensive exercise four to five times a week. The purer the tobacco, the better too. I started smoking to read longer and more intensely on the recommendation of a close friend who was mogging me literarily. It helped a lot.

Here is the big con that people rarely mention: COST. It's an expensive habit. I'd avoid it just for that. But if you have money to blow, then whatever.

for me it's hookah (got some turkish shisha) and I'm currently reading ernst junger's eumeswil
also obligatory "you're gay for smoking american spirits" post
>>17884385
I've been smoking for a while, and out of everything hookah is the worst health wise. This is only because there are more tar-related chemicals in shisha, and sharing the hose with other people increases the risk of lung disease. However it's all about how often you smoke; a pack a day cigarette smoker is worse off than a once every two weeks hookah smoker. For me personally, vaping felt the worst for my health. Smoking cigarettes and hookah frequently never made my lungs feel like they were dying nor did my skin turn grey the way vaping did. Smoking is most certainly bad for you, but there is some degree of study that shows pipe tobacco, because of how it's cured, is actually healthy and the best way to consume tobacco. Overall, smoking is not healthy, but it's all about frequency and what you're smoking. Just smoke pipe tobacco, cure your own tobacco, or roll your own cigarettes if you care about adverse health effects.

You can get different warnings. US have them on the side, usually in gold on a white background so they're invisible to those without sharp eyesight. Don't think Korea had warnings either when I was getting cigarettes from them either, but that was several years ago. You can also get ones with fewer/different warnings from duty free in some countries, since they don't have to meet the local standards for sale.

10 packs were only recently the minimum amount too- Woodbines used come in 5 packs and a lot of tobacconists sold single cigarettes. If they brought in proper age enforcement that would probably get more people to cut down. I think most everyone who was going to quit probably did it at the point that cigarettes and vodka started being similarly priced.

These npcs have no sense of identity and are just attempting to copy what other people are doing, how they dress, how they act, how they speak, what music they listen to, etc...They do this with the hopes of finally developing a personal identity, paradoxically becoming a walking stereotype.

If you want concentration just drink coffee, best drug in the world. It has made people productive for millennia, and research has found no long-term risks in drinking it unless you suffer from high blood pressure. If you don't like the taste, drink actual tea with caffeine or just take caffeine pills.

I dissected a cadaver in anatomy class, and I’ll never forget what I saw when we removed his lungs. Healthy lungs are a big soft pink mass of cute. Think somewhat compressed cotton candy, or the most perfect wad of chewing gum. The man we dissected was a smoker. As soon as we cracked into his thoracic cavity, we knew something was foul in Denmark. Not only were his lungs about 2/3 the size they should have been, they were dark brown, like meatball. Then we sliced and the alveoli were caked with sticky tar-like occlusions. We all agreed: it was not bubble gum, but raisin bread.

Still, the only reason I won’t smoke is that I don’t want to get wrinkly too fast.
I’m also allergic to coffee. Is there anything else I can use to get that edge when I write?

Frequent tobacco use ain't great for you, but there are also much healthier ways to consume it than cigarettes.
Cigars and pipe tobacco are both better provided you smoke them the right way (not inhailing into your lungs).
The only form of tobacco intake that's not connected to any cases of cancer is nasal dry snuff, but it's not something you find in most stores and also you get gross dark colored snot from it.

Too true about health risks of cigs and cost of gum. The way I got around this was vaping loose leaf American Spirit tobacco out of a dry herb vape. Very cheap and pretty clean apart from occasionally getting the leaf in your mouth (pretty gross). Still need to be careful to limit the amount of nicotine because of heart concerns, but you'll get that with any stimulant.

Studies show that people who smoke a very small amount of pipe tobacco are actually at a lower risk for cardiovascular disease than nonsmokers. I would think 1 or 2 cigs now and then is completely fine and basically identical to a nonsmoker risk wise. You just don't want to become a serious smoker who goes through a pack a day.
I used to occasionally enjoy 2 or 3 cigarettes every few days, I noticed no difference after stopping and stopping was very easy.

I started smoking because my parents smoked, and I like the way it smelled. Tried smoking and liked the way it made me feel. Then I got addicted after a while and haven't wanted to stop bad enough in more than twenty years to actually try. No one pressured me to smoke, I just wanted to.

There seems to be a little projection going on here. Most people, whether or consciously or less so, begin to emulate those they spend a lot of time with. If I had to speculate, I'd guess you noticed yourself acting this way, was bothered by it, and now think you're enlightened by your awareness of it. But who knows, I dont know you and it ultimately doesn't matter. Just try not to think you're so much better than other people, even degenerate smokers, as odds are you're not.
