On again off again. Quit cold several times. A few years each time. On again at the present.

Sometimes I'll smoke if I've had a few drinks in me and I'm around people that smoke themselves. I like the nice buzz that it adds to a few drinks, but I can honestly say I've never had the urge to smoke if alcohol is not involved and I plan to keep things that way.
However, I have had a friend that had to stop smoking for financial reasons and I saw first-hand what severe cigarette withdrawal looks like. Nicotine can be a nasty, vicious substance.

Smoking makes me look manly and women find it attractive

I'm curious how many people smoke? I do, but am trying to quit!
I've never smoked, although that has more to do with having never given in to peer pressure. A decision that has had its pros and cons in my life over the years.

It's not easy being an independent spirit, I guess.

I must say the laws about no smoking in bars perplexes the hell out of me. Especially when my favorite haunt went to the extreme of sectioning off 1/2 the bar with its own entrance, own bar/draft lines, and its own ventilation system and it is STILL illegal there. Now it is relegated to a rentable party room. Sad.
Alas, being in with the owners allows 'kewl people' to slip in and smoke (they hide a key under a plant) in inclimate weather.

What perplexes you exactly? You seem to think it sad that smoking should be banned indoors when it's a perfectly sensible idea that even I, as a smoker, fully embraced.

for all you who are currently smokers you should try E-cigarettes which are better for your health.;)

Are they though? I'm currently on them and I've used them to quit before, but I'm not so sure that they are great for you. With a normal cigarette you finish it and it's over. With electric cigarettes you can just keep smoking and because they only supply nicotine instead of the cigarette concoction you don't get as immediate an effect from them. Therefore I reckon it's actually easier to end up smoking them for longer and thus dose yourself with more nicotine.

i wouldn't know because i've never smoked. however it's still safer.
