Never smoked in my life. Always had other things to spend money on. So, what have I missed? Apart from a cure for colitis?

The irrefutable, indefinably seething pleasure that comes from sucking on something so small and dangerous.

Classic if you're out of your nut on E, dud otherwise

Looking sort of dodgy

Addiction can be reassuring at times. A form of faith perhaps, but one based on the slightest of chemical rushes and the staving off of minor mental tribulations.

i think one is stronger for having known addiction.

although i think my meaning of 'stronger' there is a little vague.

only thing I've ever smoked is the illegal stuff.

I like cigars now.

i smoked a pipe last summer, when i was trying (and failing) to give up cigarettes. I just remember being outside my work on a boiling hot day in the city centre smoking a pip and wearing a duffel cup and looking like the oddest thing....

duffel coat, i should say....

Something to cling to.

It really is crappacious in so many ways.
Yes I am a reformed smoker, luckily it wasn't a long addiction
(six years). I simply worked out all my reasons for smoking, realised I didn't need fags to satisfy those particular needs, and stopped. I'm just as nervy as ever, but now I kind of have an addiction to not smoking, so.
(Plus I was getting headaches off them, so there was an urgency to
quitting).

It makes your lungs go "OWIE-ahhhhhh...."

No idea, on account of the fact that I didn't go to Eton.

it's like having a friend who's always there for you and never lets you down.

unless you don't have any that is*

Wait, smoking cures colitis?

Dunhills are only $5 now at the corner liquor store... that's what everything costs. So I can be a classy Hunter Thompson type and smoke Dunhill's now.
