I thought hard , very hard but could come up with only these advantages of smoking :
1. It releives stress .
2. It gives pleasure .
3. Helps to pass time .
4. Sets you into a peculiar mood .
Can you think of any advantage of smoking ?
I announce that I do not smoke and have never done it .

I am a smoker from last 14 years and I think I have a right to stand for people who smoke. Here are few advantage of smoking..
1. Replaces bad breath with smoky breath.
2. Relieves stress. (I know it's same as your 1. point )
3. Reduces weight for some.
4. Luxury item in many states, so it could be a status symbol.
5. May induce discomfort to those you don’t like/hate and keep them away.
I think this five can do. They are more than satisfactory reasons to continue smoking.

I have known smoking to increase weight for many .
Though it may reduce weight for the other side effects it causes like lack of desire for food .
And is smoky breath better than bad breath , I think the sweat of smokers is much stinkier than that of a non smoker .

Being an ex smoker I can add stops you eating too much to that list. Since stopping smoking I have gained about 3 stone. Also it used to help me have a poo in the mornings!

Well, it reduces the world's over population, helps the government get more revenue (tax), shortens your live if you are living in misery, keeps you awake(sometimes), lets you kill people you hate(with passive smoke), and maybe more.
well i'm sure i don't want these "advantages" so i didn't smoke...
