Please don’t say something like they are good when you are nervous,when you are drinking alcohol, or after sex. I want to know if they are any genuine benefits of smoking.

    Unless you manufacture and sell them, there is absolutely no up side to cigarettes.

    some people say it makes them feel better after there stressed from work or maybe somthing bad thats happening.

    ssome people smoke as a way to not eat loose weight, they smoke thinking they wont eat as much if they smoke.

    some just find it good to look “cool”

    People won’t notice if you miss a shower.

    Well, for starters:
    You can look German or French doing it since so many there struggle with it.
    You can save money on restaurants and flights.
    You can look older if that’s what you want because of the lines and damage it does to your face and skin
    You can keep people away that way
    You can get teachers off your back who may be expecting great things of you becasue you will seem less intelligent and successful–hey, less pressure!
    You can keep the successful, pretty girls away from you, and not have to deal much with attractive, inaccessible people because they will write you off–hey nothing ventured nothing gained, right?

    you don’t have to worry about the stress of owning a car or being on a schedule to save money because it will relieve you of that chice by spending the money on cigarettes instead.

    you can see a really colorful image of how your lungs and teeth look by looking on the internet — maybe on google images–could be like cinema verite of sorts…

    you can relate to studies showing differences in health and stamina levels of identical twins when one smokes and the other doesn’t while other aspects are very similar

    hey, there are a lot of things to list! sorry I don’t have time to add the others. hope this helps.

    They keep you at a healthy weight, I’m the same waist size now at 34 as I was at age 20.
    The smoking sections are a great way to meet men.

    Thats about it.
