I kinda wanna try a cigarette. What’s it like?

It's like breathing in poisons and carcinogens that you PAID FOR, along with a depressant drug that is highly addictive that ensures you'll keep paying to poison yourself for years and years to come. The average cigarette smoker in the US spends over $10,000 a year supporting their habit, and enjoy brown teeth, accelerated skin aging, reduced hair health, and being horribly stinky. That's in addition to the much increased chances of cancer and COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease).

It's crazy to realize that smoking has been on a severe decline for the last 50 years - why would anyone not want to enjoy all of those things?

[hahahmm]

Imagine somebody painted cardboard to look 100% like food and then you tried to eat it. That's what it was like to me. Totally pointless. Although you could get a buzz by smoking one fast or smoking a lot. I don't recommend you do that.

Now cigars have way more flavor to them but still, was never worth it to me to smoke em. Just didn't do anything for me. Like somebody else said... once you get addicted it's different but I never took it that far.

Gross tbh, it tasted bad, hurts, makes you cough, makes me feel sick personally and the benefits just don’t outweigh the negatives that come from it at all

[Asker]

So is it really that addictive if it tastes bad? If I try it once I should be fine rite?

[sunflower00]

It depends on the person, my parents always told me not to smoke because if you do it once you’ll be addicted but I’ve done it multiple times and have no desire to do it again. Meanwhile I do know people who get addicted straight away. I just wouldn’t bother there’s no benefit

My older sister gave me a cigarette when I was 5 years old. I turned green. It's the most vile thing I've ever experienced. Other than second hand smoke, I've never come close to a cigarette since.

It's okay to wonder what a cigarette is like, please don't try it.

have you ever been at a family bbq or like did you ever have a bonfire type situation with marshmellows and smores and the fire smoke just went your way and you breathed that in? pretty much like that. scratches in your throat, makes you cough and feel horrible.

[redbeardsley91]

Well... considering if you're in the US and under 18, there's stiff penalties for stores who sell to people who are underage or are buying it for minors, and there's undercover inspectors who make sure the law is being followed... I would say it tastes like tough luck.

[FilmGuy93]

I enjoy it... the high can be a little bit dizzying when it's too intense, which isn't nice. Overall, I find the taste and smell of tobacco really pleasant, if it's high quality tobacco.

[sw1916]

Don’t do it. It’s not worth it and it’s very easy to be addicted. I went through hell quitting.

[Astarlessnightsky]

Horrible, you cough, it stinks, its expensive, and you only come back for more because you get addicted to the nicotine.

[TheMajesticKing777]

Not worth it, I can guarantee you the taste isn't worth it

[exitseven]

It is really not that great. It looks a lot better than it is.

[d3n0939]

avoid the first time... temptation, you will be good.

Take some charcoal and ashes from a fireplace and mix in a heaping of old coffee grounds and then chew.

[Flats-Runner]

Surely you know the risks of smoking. There’s no benefit doing it at all.

[Shamalien]

They r only good once u r addicted, and by then you’ve got a real problem on your hands…best to just stay away

[Dimension453]

Don't. Yes we older fucks tell tall tales to scare young people away from stuff, but with cigarettes it's the real deal. Don't even look at them. You'll regret it.

[Zolly99999]

Gross don't do it

I tried a cigarette once and was sick for 3 days 😳

[Anonymous]

It's a lot of fun, especially to just walk around on a nice day, listening to music with earbuds, and smoking some cigarettes. I did it all the time at college, I loved it, but I never got addicted to it.

@d3n0939 Why? Just because I'm not falling for scare tactics?

[d3n0939]

I don't entertain plagues like you

[Opinion Owner]

@d3n0939 Smoking is fun and not very dangerous

[rohitbiruli008]

It's good for beginners. IT will make you horny afterwards.
