    good. smoking is better for the soul than vaping. and you look cooler too.

    i consume roughly 50mg of nicotine a day through pouches and have no issues quitting cold turkey, often for weeks at a time. its nice to reset your tolerance. but i find it hard to believe others find it so addicting. same with caffeine. do people really get headaches because they miss a coffee?

    alcohol is another story tho. it's a lot more enjoyable and thus harder to eliminate without actually replacing it with something else.

      Did you watch too many Marlboro ads? Smokers look like bozo either way.

        nah, as it usually goes it's become cool again with the youth because its rare, risky, and their parents hate it
