Ciggys

I vape during the week and smoke when drinking. Honestly if you can stop smoking stop now, wish i never started. Smoking is bad for you i feel the shortness of breath and everything when i have that first cig, but cant seem to get over that urge. Non smokers dont realise its like watching porn and having a massive hardon then trying to not fap every hour every day

Smoking is bad for you. Theres really no way around that. Exactly how bad? Depends on how often you are doing it and how many you smoke.

Also I understand everyone on Veeky Forums has the self control of a statue but just be careful you dont start liking them too much, its a real slippery slope my man.

So cigarettes are made with shredded homogenized tobacco leaf, aka HTL. They shred up low quality tobacco, stalks and woody bits and all, then they soak that in a nasty chemical bath that extracts the nicotine and bleaches it. Then they turn the resulting pulp into paper, soak that with concentrated nicotine to amp up the nicotine hit, shred that, and roll it into cigarettes.

Quality pipe tobacco and cigars, OTOH, are basically good tobacco leaf that has been prepared using largely natural processes. It tastes miles better than cigarettes, and the nicotine delivery is less intense since you absorb the nicotine from non-nicboosted smoke through the mucus membranes in your mouth instead of through the lungs. It's a gentler ride, less prone to causing addiction. If pipes and cigars are nice Scotch, cigarettes are drinking Sterno.

The cancer risk profile is different too. If you smoke one or two cigars or bowls a week your risk drops into the statistical noise.

proof?

I'd trust high quality natural leaf far more than whatever crap goes into vape goop.

Note that it doesn't say that pipes and cigars are much safer than cigarettes, but when you limit your consumption (which is easier given that they're less addictive) the actual risk of popping off because of it is very low.

>vaping

lmao i hope this was jest

>How bad are they for you on occasion?
Smoking is never good for you user. Don't give in to the Jew sticks.

I remember taking part in tradition native ceremonies when I was younger and traditional tobacco (high quality small batch organic grown stuff) was often used for "healing and cleansing". It wasn't always smoked, it was often burned in a bowl along with sweet grass and it would create a good sense of calm and would actually seemed to help one time when I have a lung infection. Considering the majority of the carcinogens in cigarettes seem to be from the processing and additives it would kind of make sense that the problems aren't inherently with tobacco.

what the fuck kind of link is that LOL. longest shit i've ever seen
