why anyone would smoke cigarettes when weed exists is beyond me but ok.
Because cigarettes are addictive? People start in a weak moment and fail to stop. It's not a rational decision.
why anyone would take drugs for stress relief when sports exist is beyond me but ok.
why anyone would use sports for stress relief when art exists is beyond me but ok.
Different receptors. Also, cigarettes are way more addictive.
Edit: Did I get pushback for stating that cigarettes are highly addictive?
Weed turns me into a lazy paranoid dumbass. Sometimes I just want to smoke something and not feel like that.
cigarettes are horrible though, have you tried that hot new trend of using pacifiers?
im using nicotine pacifiers rn, thanks for the suggestion!
Can't say I agree. I haven't smoked regularly now for almost a year, but occasionally just buy a single if I've had a beer and have a craving. That's the nice thing about Latin America, you can buy single cigarettes. I smoke one, feel guilty, and then don't think about them for a month or so.
friend of mine got hooked exactly like this, on and off.
