Not striking since 2004
Following on from Hil's giving up smoking thread, it got me thinking, what made people start smoking in the first place? I've tried it, but never, ever seen the attraction, I just don't get it.
To look cool.
Bollocks. that might make you try a cigarette, but wouldn't start you smoking. I seem to remember it took me about a year and a half of fairly regular smoking to becom addicted.Because i was drunk

i'd admit it was all about looking cool.
One thing i dont understand is those who start smoking at 16 upwards - I gave up at 20 after 8 years smoking, and at 16 was fully aware of the dangers, smell and the fact that it looked ridiculous.
Yea, but if I see a fittie walking down Southend High Street (rare in the first place I know) and then I see her spark up a fag, I ain't interested.*
So really, I just don't see it as cool.
*If my missus reads this, I'm not interested anyway, I'm just speaking metaphorically.

Smoking makes you look cool. Always has done. Always will.
Yeah, well cool with a **** cough and yellow fingers. 'I'm just popping outside into the freezing cold because I'm weak and I'm addicted to catching cancer.' You go and be cool whilst I stay nice and warm. :)
