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 EXACTLY like you man. No joke. I smoke weed occasionally and have NEVER smoked a single cigarette. I just think theyre gross and lead to nasty life threatening effects.

I call bullshit on anyone who says they have smoked weed but not cigarettes. What, did you seriously learn by smoking weed the very first time? My ass, my friends would kick my ass if I started coughing up weed, which you will do if it's your first time smoking. It seems like they are just saying that they have smoked weed because it is cool whereas cigarettes are not well received at all.
I do smoke from time to time, only with friends, almost always when drunk. I just find it's a good thing, socially. It's easier to talk to someone when you're sharing a cig and it's a great ice-breaker.
Anyways Trav, you should maybe try it if you're interested, you won't get addicted straight away. Hell I've been doing it for about 6 months and I have yet to get any kind of a craving. I'm seventeen btw.
Believe it or not, I smoke weed and have NEVER smoked a cigarette.
