" Congrats. I still don't understand how you can get started on that shit, to be honest. When I was young, my parents smoked a lot, a pack a day at least. I hated it, because of the smell, the smoke, and what I knew it was doing to them (and what they did if they didn't get their fix), so I tried the tiniest drag off a cigarette because I just could not understand the habit. Fucking disgusting, on the verge of being painful. Still don't get how someone could do that to their body. It's bad enough inhaling smoke from a fire 5 feet away, filling your lungs with toxic junk is just beyond my comprehension. "
You must not have tried it in front of a mirror. If you had, you would have seen how fucking cool you looked.

Well, you might look cool, but you're for damn not cool.

The Hundred Years War? "
England (specifically the Normans) owned at least a fifth of modern France, meaning it wasn't technically France until after the Hundred Years' War.
Congrats, now you have some more money going to better things than just flushing it away with buying cigarettes in addition to the health benefits of not smoking.
Am I the only one who doesn't smoke? I must be the handful of the goody two shoes kids. I'm 18 and I will NEVER touch any of that shit. Cigarettes, weed, whatever. It's also sad that this generation of children do so many things that they shouldn't.....
" @HandsomeDead: Every real smoker, including myself, resents you constantly asking us for cigarettes. Get a job, hippy! "
Dear god, yes, this. There are a couple people, that when we know they're coming over, we hide our smokes. It's pretty bad. I quit while I was pregnant, and then I quit again back in like... 2006 or something. But I had gained 20 lbs within about 3 months, and that was NOT gonna fly.
Edit: Also

I said the same thing when I was your age. I was a goody goody. I started smoking when I was in my early 20s and basically became the mother to my teenage brother. The straight up stress of him getting in trouble, I turned to someone I knew and asked them for one of their cigarettes.
People have different reasons why they do what they do. Some never intend to get into the things they do. I remember in high school I wouldn't date a guy just because he smoked and I was NOT going to kiss an ashtray.
Been smoking for about a year, haven't decided to stop yet, but it depends on something that I'm also about to do next week. If it happens, I will stop smoking.
@InternetCrab: Congratulations and keep it up! Now you may not sound like a robot/serial killer by age 40. Even better yet, you may live past age 40. Smoking is an expensive and destructive habit, so good for you for removing it as a part of your life.
Congrats, man! I recently quit also! Coming up on a month of no nicotine whatsoever.
I've actually tried to quit tons of times in the past, and I always used some form of nicotine replacement. This time I listened to an audiobook just to try something different. I was super skeptical going in, but that was hands down the easiest way to quit smoking ever. I've not had any terrible cravings or withdrawl symptoms.
Of course the best advice is to just not ever do it in the first place. And like S0ndor said, there's no such thing as just one.
