See, you're being funny..but i'm from Alabama, I know people that chew sweet grass and have a great aunt that eats dirt (this weird white clay stuff...they sell it in gas stations next to the skittles)...I really might start chewing some straw.

Im serious, I dont think my addiction is nicotine, Ibecause I only have one to three a day, its sometimes when Im relaxing I have to be doing something. Im the type that doesnt shut up, so if I actually do run out of something to say i light up just to keep my mouth going.

That is my problem...I know I'm addicted to niccotine, but the larger problem is this need to have something to do with my mouth...I could probably take up hummming and be done with the cancer sticks.

Re:Straw...I'm from Alabama now...I don't think of plastic when you say straw...:P

:P Wow! A thread I can relate to!

All of you have it much better than I do! I smoke 1 1/2-2 packs of cigarettes a day! If I drink it's more. (like 2). Addiction is nothing to take lightly! I wish I understood this better when I was younger, but I wasn't listening as most teens don't or at least THIS then-teen didn't!

I DID think though, after reading these posts, that I should try (not the first time I've had this thought), to moderate my behavior or trade my cigarettes for the OCCASIONAL Cigar or Pipe, but for me that's weird because I'm female so it's only something I'd do in my own home, and drink tea or something other than alcohol. I don't know why but alcohol and cigarettes go so well together! But since I live in California, I should treat my house like a bar and not be allowed to indulge both habits at the same time since in this state you have to go outside to smoke if you are at a bar and you can't take your drink with you! :lol: - Muschi

I occasionally smoke cigs, generally only if I'm drinking or really stressed. I do enjoy smoking a pipe once a week or so, even though I'm a woman and not really very good at keeping it lit. I love the smell of it, much better than cigarettes.

I wouldn't say its cool but I do it. I smoke 20 most days but if I'm drinking its more. I've never really thought about quitting it doesn't really bother me.

smoking will kill you. For every time you light up tell yourself that you wanted to die seven minutes earlier.

Wow . . . and you get to heaven that much quicker too!

No, I'm kidding. I don't smoke cigarettes, but all of my Italian friends do. In fact, its so normal now that I don't even start breathing funny anymore.

I do smoke Cigars and pipes. I enjoy both. I don't do either everyday (but I probably would if I could afford good Cigars everyday).

Why is it that countries like Italy don't have the highest emphyzema rates? Or lung cancer. Smoking is like breathing over there.

I am willing to bet they don't put all the nasty junk into their cigs like we do here, all the preservatives and what not.
