@ahriboy@snug.moe Yeah, but it's not the same. I enjoy the entire activity and experience of smoking. Maybe I have an "oral fixation"?

@7666@comp.lain.la It's true. In a sort of sick twist, in all honesty, cigarettes, while limiting your time on this Earth, do help you appreciate certain moments of life better. It slows things down, it's relaxing, it makes you enjoy simple moments. A coffee in the morning, a break between shifts, the quiet in the midnight hours, post-coitus or after large meals. You smoke a cigarette and it's like the bow that ties the package together. @nyx@social.xenofem.me @ahriboy@snug.moe

@adiz @nyx @7666 @ahriboy@snug.moe It used to be very social 20yrs ago, before most places banned it. You'd get to know people over a smoke break. Anti-smoking people miss the point that smoking is pleasurable, it is why it is hard to stop.

@adiz @nyx @7666 @ahriboy@snug.moe I haven't smoked in a decade but when I have a beer If I had a packet I'd probably light one up.

@sullybiker@sully.site It's still extremely common in China, to the point that smoking indoors is still commonplace in many public places. It's quite restrictive by comparison here in the United States. I miss when smoking was a casual, social affair. Damn, I really want to go out and buy a pack now... @nyx@social.xenofem.me @7666@comp.lain.la @ahriboy@snug.moe

@sullybiker @adiz @7666 @ahriboy it's still kinda social for me because of the (rare) times when I go to bars where people will be smoking on the patio. it's also a thing I've bonded over a bunch of people I know IRL with. but definitely less common

@nyx @7666 @adiz @ahriboy@snug.moe The first job I had, the non-smoking break room was called 'the morgue'. That was the difference in simple terms.

@nyx @7666 @adiz @ahriboy@snug.moe I was living in England when it was banned in 2007. The first thing everyone noticed is how bad pubs smell. Everyone had to go outside to smoke, which lead to these little huddles with the (usually one) non-smoker minding the entire table while everyone was away.
