Are you a smoker, a non-smoker, an anti-smoker, or just don't care? Lol. Well, I tried smoking a few years back. And I have to admit that it was good. But only a few weeks into it, I stopped. I didn't want to get addicted to it. So what are your thoughts about smoking?

I agree with those stuff you said about bad breath, tartar, and lung cancer. And yea, about the "cool" part. 'Cause there are those who just smoke for the sake of being deemed as "cool" or "in". However, that's not always the case. Anyway, about the "relax" part, I think it can be acceptable, since it can be a bit relaxing. But still, addiction to smoking or smoking itself isn't really good for anyone.

Yea, I wonder what got into him/her/their head(s). Haha. Oh yeah, I saw that, too! I think that'd be a great alternative. They should just focus on producing those instead. I have a feeling it'll be a hit in the next 20 years or so. Haha

I'm a ex-smoker , and I smoked for at least 30 years. I took many try's over 5 years, but have been smoke free for about 12 years now. Still sometimes I wish for a smoke, but one drag and I'll be hooked again.

Wow, that must've taken a lot of effort and will-power from you to quit. You made the right choice, and you better avoid temptations. It's great though that you did your best to stop and maintained it.

I am a non-smoker. I don't like smelling the second hand smoke. It is terrible and harmful. I always don't understand why people will like smoking. As when I was young, I tried to see how it tasted like and it was so bad. I coughed for a week after that. Since that, I have never wanted to try smoking. I love China

Aww, I get what you mean. Actually I think the 2nd hand smoke is really more harmful. When I was a kid, I also tried it out but since I didn't know how it worked, I just coughed. Lol. Thank you for sharing!
