Government warning; Cigarette smoking is dangerous to your health, yet many people are still fond of smoking. What is the secret of cigarette that most people engage with it? What is so good with it? What makes it so addictive that it became a very hard habit to break? I did tried to smoke before but after that, I stopped already. I don't feel smoking at all because, Firstly, it stinks. I don't like the smell of the smoke and as well as the stick. Second, it'll make you ugly. Then lastly, after smoking my throat hurts the next day. So tell me, what's so good with smoking that makes people addicted to it?

Smoking is one of the most disgusting habit that someone can have. Here, we call them cancer sticks. It can give you hypertension, lung cancer, Bladder cancer......a whole lot of stuff. It's funny, when you tell someone that you can get cancer from smoking, they will say that you have to die from something........stupid people......Cancer is a cell that becomes a monster cell. It changes the closest cells to monster cell that pretty much eats the organs......No one wants to die like that...... 8 out of 10 smokers, will get some form of cancer in their lifetime.......

aside from the nicotine that is addictive, society plays a big role also, early one you may look at a guy who smoke as cool, manly and full of angst, to girls its makes them sophisticated, of course these are absurd but it happens. some people find smoking relaxing, mentally and psychologically but definitely not physically as we all know all the possible illness that come with it.

OMG!!! I used to smoke before, long long time ago but then I stopped for so many reasons. I think then that this causes your skin to age faster, your heart starts to beat irregularly due to the poison (nicotine and tar) that sticks to our blood vessels, and more. These are some reasons concerned health authorities are trying to impart to us smokers. And the baddest thing is the smell of it from your mouth, you are right chelleshey, it really stinks. And imagine you kissing your partner with that kind of smell, I's sure he/she will throw out . . . huiiiikkkch!!! And lastly, it affects your mornings cause you cough until you feel your stomach aches.

maybe let's wait for a smoker to answer those question, but i believe that there is one time that smoking helps, it should be done after eating as it activates the release of digestive juice in the stomach.. I don't smoke and I don't find it appealing.
