It's "cool" only among teenagers. Wish it wasn't so I wouldn't have started.

Very very common among teenagers and the working class.

It's bluepilled; I wish I could stop.

Mostly acceptable/tolerated, depending on the context/environment. I work in the rail and most of the civil guys smoke pretty regularly, both young and old, but that's just the culture of the job. At my university not many people smoke, although since it's a smoke-free zone that's not surprising. There's always be a bunch of students standing just outside the train station (which is right next to the university entry) that smoke. I don't notice too many people on my day-to-day travels smoking, but here in Australia basically almost everywhere public or semi-public has banned smoking, even a lot of bars now. When I (very rarely) go to clubs there's always plenty of people smoking in the designated areas, and all of them are my age pretty much.

Everyone is 100% aware of how bad smoking is, and nobody encourages it, but unless someone is a rude cunt they're not gonna start lecturing you about how bad it is. Australians don't like being told what to do or what not to do, and we'll do shit anyway.

it's only "cool" among teenaged girls. guys use snus.

You can if you want to.

>2018
>He spends money to kill himself

Getting less and less acceptable.
Never been cool, just for kids. Luckily I never gived a shit so I never started.

It's common between youth, but cigarettes became too expensive, so many are starting to prefer nasvai

>70-th day without smoking

>have saved about 70 * 4.5 * 25/20 = 393.75 €
>still wanna light up 3 cigarettes and smoke them at the same time

It's thing that people do. You accept it as there usually is no way to stop them from smoking. But you usually won't get shunned for not smoking and you won't be seen as cool even if you smoke.

Not cringe but very bluepilled, all the cool guys vape instead

Not cool

Holy fuck
How much do you smoke

You're doing well, I'm sure you can make it if you made it this far

I smoked Cigarillos for a few months and I had no problem quitting it.

It must be the addictive shit they put into cigarettes

What's that? Is it safe?

>any Russian drug
>safe

did*
About 25 cigarettes.
It depended, if I was at home all day, then I'd smoke like 15-20. If I was out all day I'd smoke like 25-30.

>How much do you smoke
he literally did the calculations for you, you dumb fuck

Leave the smokings to nordicks
We need to preserve our beautiful med beauty my brother

It's pressed tobacco and alkali, google naswar. You need to put under bottom lip. Usually cost ~$0.5 for the pack.
> Is it safe?
ofc, not

Thank you amico

Really common for tradies and lower class people
I only smoke when I'm drinking, same for a lot of younger people

it's much less "cool" than it used to be

smoking is for degenerate scum anyway, if you smoke you are weak willed and bluepilled

>How is smoking viewed in your country?
Extremely bad. Neither of the highest seats of the government smoke. The 8% excise tax, 5% value-added tax, and 15% sin tax makes it (and alcohol) expensive so people now smoke less than 15 years ago. Government regulation requires tobacco companies to put pictures of cigarette victims on the packaging so that smokers will have to think about on their smoking habits every time they buy it.

>Is it "cool", acceptable, or shunned?
Shunned, current gen prefers vaping and most boomers here are starting to adapt to vaping.

People nowadays vape in my country because legal ciggies are too expensive.

Paradise ain't cheap here.

it isn't cool

And? Is life a competition of who lives the longest?

kek

americans wouldn't understand

if you're not dead by 30 from heart failure it's cause you were shot in the street

not anymore for teenagers

It's not a competition, you are not competing with anyone, but staying alive is one of the main goals in life, without it there's nothing else.

>addictive shit they put into cigarettes
This probably happens, but is there any proof to it?

Of course i smoke, i'm not a soyboy beta numale virgin incel whitecuck.

Damn, that's deep.

>Neither of the highest seats of the government smoke.
Cringe that this has to be brought up

Smoking is bad!
Smoking weed is healthy and should be legal xD xD lmao

I dont know if Sotto Smokes but he used to block the smoking ban and extra sin taxing bills

this but unironically

>Australians don't like being told what to do or what not to do
but you said smoking was banned everywhere (which is good). how is that not telling you what to do.

>americans
typical dumbass generalization. we basically are a non-smoking country compared to the rest of the world

I some when I'm drunk and otherwise use snus. I will probably never quit nicotine.

All the people who don't do either seems low test beta virgins desu. Not even memeing.

No its gross

It's not like it's literally written on the packages

Smoking is mostly popular among females, teens, foreigners and gays.

Imagine being foreigner gay teen female...

You are missing out on hitting up teenage foreign gay females by not smoking

Do people really get chatty while smoking? I couldn't really imagine something like that with the social climate that we have here.

Start snusing, if you find even that too addictive start vaping and gradually lower the amount of nicotine you use.

there are 599 chemicals in a cigarette

Societal decisions aren't the same as some uppity cunt looking down their nose at you. Though, I hate smokers.

I don't think so, I think it depends more on individuals and how they handle getting addicted to a substance. I have a friend who've tried to quit smoking for years and keep falling back into the habit, and another one who smoked from when he was 17 to 23 and just decided to quit one day with no relapse yet.

80% of young people here "don't smoke" EXCEPT for on nights out where they'll easily smoke a pack

>2018
>Doesn't smoke cigarettes

Are you bullied, mentally handicapped or both?

>b-but it kills you

And? Was life a contest about who lives the longest?

>it's addicting!!!

It's not, as long as you're not under-aged and you can smoke in moderation

>it's....IT'S EXPENSIVE!!!

Who forces you to buy a pack every day, fucking peat-gavel

We don't smoke that much, I don't know about the rest of western europe but here in scandinavia it's not very big.

Do you use nicotine patches or anything like that? I found chewing on toothpicks helping when I quit using snus.

pack of camels a day for the last 9 years.

Quit 2 weeks ago, still crave it every second of the day.

Because it's simply shit, you are litterally only doing it out of habit and peer pressure.

Not really. Passing on your genes is. After that, you may as well die. Dog bless medical science for keeping us alive way too long.

no it's not
people always imagine they just "somehow" drop dead earlier than others and ignore all the cancer, diseases and all other kinds of conditions before that

Extremely so. maybe not a total stranger that you see one the street but at workplaces, schools, clubs etc it's a great way to get to know people.

t.smoked one cigarette and thinks he knows shit

Cigarettes are fucking delicious

>tfw all fancy flavor smokes got banned
I wish I could had tried chocolate ones
