I'm just curious because I'm 18, almost 19 in 2 months, and I have never smoked a cigarette. Not once and not even a single puff or drag or whatever you want to call it. I guess I'm somewhat proud of it because I don't know how many other people my age could say the same, specifically that aren't a "goody two shoes".
The reason I don't is because I don't see a point. They don't make you high, they are addictive, I think they are gross, and they are linked directly to cancer. I also have family and know others that got cancer because of cigarettes.
I smoke cigars though, and have very recently too. I just don't smoke them often and obviously you don't inhale them, so it's different.
I talked to someone the other day that is in the same boat as me; has never smoked one cigarette, but smokes weed, cigars, etc. , and I was kind of surprised. All my friends do or have in the past.
I'm now 16 and I've smoked weed and gotten drunk off my ass before. I have taken one puff of a cigarette, and couldn't even really inhale it. I exhaled it all so fucking quickly. My grandmother, a life smoker, passed when I was 2 due to a lung related disease, and while on oxygen she was still smoking. It's really been a big deterrent from me smoking cigs. I mean, there's a direct correlation between cigarettes and lung diseases. No such correlation exists between weed and anything.
