How many of you guys never smoked in your life?

[DunkeyKong]

Wow, you guys are pretty metal and blue at the same time....

My story feels so mundane compared to that. I was actually interested in it, but never got around to start. When I was young, I spent too much money on online games together with my close friend (also my gf now). When I was in university, I got too hooked on baking after winning a bet with her, against her brick cake. I had to work part-time to cover my baking cost and the baking course I took. But hey, at least I'm a certified baker now! After dating her, since last January, I overheard her talking on the phone and said she doesn't hate it, but she doesn't really like the smell of tobacco either.

That's why, I just don't want to start smoking now, lmao. Pretty lame, huh?

I feel lucky, though. I probably won't have enough money to take baking course had I started smoking when given the chance. It probably won't make any difference career-wise, but it sure as hell feels like it'd make a huge difference in my mindset, lifestyle, and mental health. Feeling proud of my bread every morning helped me go through tough times, as silly as it sounds. And getting allowed to help with baking for the church, despite not being a deacon, makes me proud of myself (... which is bad, because pride, you know lol, but God please forgive me)

Damn…what a story
Nothing about this is lame lol, your decisions not only that you change because of her, you also change yourself for the better

I'm sure you'll do great in life

Thanks, and I sure hope so lol. Still feeling the envy that some people can make smoking look cool, tho ?

Didn't smoke for the longest time but when life got a little insane a couple years back I picked it up for a while. I'd only smoke a couple cigarettes a week when I was /really/ stressed, mainly because I couldn't afford to become a super habitual smoker anyways. Quit a couple months back. Kinda glad it was there as a stress reliever when I was going through a period of having no real coping mechanism and my world was falling down around me, but I definitely don't miss it.

took one puff once, then decided no thanks.
Same with alcohol.
Learned how much i hate drugs when my first experience was being high on prescription pain killers in the hospital, hated the feeling.

 

[ObscureJigglypuff]

Me neither.
No alcohol or drugs in my system.
My only addictions are chocolate, games and normal sized boobs and asses.

 

[Cu-Neo]

I haven't smoke in the 21 (22 next month) years of live I have. My only addiction is getting achievements ?

 

[CardcaptorEd2019]

I've never smoked a cigarette before. Tho, I smoked the weeds about 10-15ish times in senior year of high school. That's pretty much it for all my smoking

 

[Stingy Perry]

Never smoked a cigarette not even thought of trying too, probably because I’m pretty occupied with a things (like gaming).

 

[fake-kun]

Never smoked and not interested in trying.

 

[marky]

Never smoked and I'm not interested in trying, Especially after my grandfather died of lung cancer in 2023. He smoked a packet of cigarettes a day for over 40 years. For the next 20 years he didn't smoke and as soon as his organism was weakened by COVID the cancer took the opportunity and attacked.

 

[Bakuma1997]

I never smoked a ful cig, what is the point and the fun of filling your mouth with the thing we should avoiud in a fire? neither got drunk, because i neither touch liquor

 

[Sackboy]

Me

i've smoked weed a good bit. kinda sucks tbh alcohol is WAY better (im lying they both suck its tragic how people have such reliances on substances especially when you can spend all your money on cars and die in a horrific accident but at least your car is cool and fast and goes stututu)

 

[χKai]

I smoke like a goddamn chiminey. It's not good for me, and I probably should quit. But idk, I love smoke, I love the way it looks when it travels, I love the smell.

 

[INTIMIDAT3R]

I never have even tried smoking or any drugs.

I did have a taste of beer when I was 9, I was Dad's "tool monkey" when he worked on his car and it was hot that day and he told me to go in the house and grab myself a soda and a beer for him.

I was drinking my rootbeer and him his beer. I asked what it tasted like, he let me have a drink... NASTY!!! I immediately spit it out.

Then in 2001, I had a sip of champaign at my wedding... NASTY!!! However, I didn't spit it out, but I didn't take a second sip either.

That concluded my drinking career.

 

[TheWanderer]

No Smoking or Drinking self harm goes against my religion and my beliefs

 

[DRAKKO]

i never smoked cigars and im not starting any day soon, and weed smells like shit and the people that smoked it usually, (not always) are lazy bums with no self control. ( @ _ @ )

I much rather smoke a joint than to get wasted with alcohol. Pissing, hangover and vomit ain't my style. An anxiety attack and eating pizza is fine for me.

 

[Gorse]

I'm the exact opposite, and I can't really give you a good reason why. I just kinda like the way booze tastes, is all.

 

[Comster]

I have never smoked in my life.

 

[MajesticSiN]

Never did and never felt the need to.

 

[Sir Auriel of Lionel]

I can't get past the smoke in the air since for the longest time stuff like incense could get me sick. I've gotten over it but now cigs just reminded me of my unresolved daddy issues. I will take most free booze my way though.

[VampireLord1024VampireLord1024's icon]

Not my thing, though I'd rather drink soda.

 

[Adrastia]

I have never smoked in my life. I have asthma and a history of pneumonia. I'd be crazy to smoke. My grandmother died of lung cancer. She quit smoking cold turkey but it was too late. She was from the generation where everyone just smoked like it was nothing. There were times where everyone I lived with smoked like chimneys.

My mom never quit even though she had respiratory problems and at one time was on oxygen. My sister would be taking butts off the sidewalk if she couldn't scrape up enough money to buy her precious Newports. $10 a pack. Huge waste of money. The cigarette taxes in Philly are high. So she'd walk to a 7-11 in Bensalem since it was out of the city and the price was lower. The road had no sidewalk and was really dark at night. All that for cigarettes. I guess maybe she cut across the potter's field. Sounds like something kids would do in a movie. Crazy. No thank you.

 

[Raud]

I don't, never, I don't Even drink alcohol, just give some tea and hot cocoa, that's all I need (along with some snack)
