That's not true. It is poison if you smoke like a dickhead non stop. If you smoke more than half a pack a day, yea it is poison. If you smoke a few cigarettes a day and you are active physically, the poison is far too little to do damage on you. I smoke a cigarette every other day, and I am the happiest in the world when I do that. I never feel more happy than when I smoke a cigarette at twilight 

Nice story bro . Any addiction will escalate. Yeah smoke here and there no big deal then as you become more  addicted you require it just to feel normal . I don't smoke more than half a pack a day because Obviously I won't crave that much . Just like if i have the most delicious food in the world I can't eat more than three times a day maximum even if the food is super delicious. That's pretty much common sense . Still even if you smoke a little over a long period of Time you will develop health issues early on .you may be able to halfass your way in your 20s . But keep smoking in low quantities until you become 40 or 50 and health issues are guaranteed to happen.

In my case it has never escalated, I smoke like that since I was 12 years old. 

And if smoking 4 cigarettes a week will kill you, most likely you will die because of the chemicals in the food you eat before any smoking related illness can kill you.

Because smoking cigarettes brings a lot of happiness to people such myself. There is nothing I love more than smoking a cigarette at night. 

How dare you complain about psychedelics?

What gross bias.


You are God. You are Truth. You are Love. You are Infinity.

I smoke a cigarette every other day at night because it brings me a lot of clarity of mind, a lot of peace and a lot of happiness. 

I don't smoke cigarettes to realize God or the nature of reality like you guys do with psychedelics. I smoke because it makes me extremely happy and because I have a very active lifestyle, the health damage is non existent. 

I stopped doing this caprice for 3 years a few years ago, but I realized that I lost all incentive to go out at night and explore the nightsky. Which is what brings me the most happiness in life. Those 3 years without smoking at all were the most depressing and meaningless years of my life. Without smoking at night I feel like I'm in prison. 

The same way you contemplate in a closet, I contemplate at night, watching the sky, while smoking a cigarette.

Your claim is scientifically false.

Scientifically I'm more at risk to develop some severe illness for inhaling concrete dust or brick dust that results when I use power tools at work like a drill or the concrete mixer or an angle grinder. 
If a few cigarettes a week harm my body I'd rather die than be in a such fragile body. Thankfully I'm strong as an ox. I got good genetics.

Neither. I just meant that I say what you just said in that post very often .the whole thing about smoking late at night I've said that million times before and caused headaches to people here about my sexual relationship with cigarettes. 😂

Yes I understand you. I think you nailed that right. If I take a good look at my relationship with cigarettes, I am also in some kind of weird relationship with the cigarettes. In my case I'd consider a cigarette my contemplative partner. I'm a loner, I hate other people, for some reason when I'm alone with the firmament and a cigarette, I feel like I'm one with the universe. I don't need other people. Just me and nature. 


Beholding the daughters of the firmament!

Totally relate . But between me and you we must put the motherfucking cigarette down . We know it's bad .it's a fucking addiction.  Addiction is suffering by definition. It's the matrix . A self Actualized and enlightened human being is one who is capable of getting high on existence itself . Not a slave to "things ".

I disagree. I'm not addicted to cigarettes. I'm addicted to serenity and peace. And nothing brings me more peace than blowing smoke while looking into the depts of darkness.

How on earth you don't see how this is problematic?

For real, I see no problem with this. As I said, smoking 3 or 4 cigarettes a week ain't no problem. There is nothing problematic in being happy. 
I don't see a problem in that, the same way you guys don't seem to see a problem when you plug a syringe in your asshole to experience "God". You experience God, I experience serenity.

Very flat logic . No problem with being happy sure..let's take out that syringe out of our poo-hole and inject Heroin into our veins and let the entire world go to hell .

I've got the similiar sort of thing with coffee, because I have it internally linked with the feelings of comfort, warmth and this sort of cozy happiness. I think that's the case for you and cigarettes. It's probably all just conditioning which just became etched into our minds over time by advertisements and people around us

I don't think coffee is very comparable. Those who don't drink coffee have a higher risk of depression and suicide than those who do, and if you force ChatGPT to answer yes or no on whether coffee is healthy or not, the answer is yes. Enjoy your coffee without guilt, I say!
