Nope... never will... watching some of my friends at school who hate themselves for starting makes me sad and glad I didnt start... one of my buddies was saying how he cant run that far without him wheezing like some old guy... and one tried to stop but day two his hands started shaking pretty bad :/ so never saw the point of something that
1) runs your money into the ground
2) kills your lungs
3) gives you bad breath

ect.

I do smoke unobtanium. It's HEAVY, man. I had a bit of it back in '28, and I've been hooked for the rest of my life. Not cheap, I tell you (20 million a kilo), but man, it's like out of this world.

The trip you get from unobtanium is amazing! Whenever I light some up I feel like I AM the flux vortex.

^That has to be in "Most Famous Quotes From the 'Tree of Souls' Forum".

That is literally one of the most classic lines I've ever seen relating to Avatar...

Whatever 'floats' your boat.

As for me, never smoked.

It always saddens me when I see people smoking, especially kids and young people. They are just throwing their precious lives away. I really just cannot see the point in this day and age, with what we know, why anyone would take it up let alone carry one. It only leads to pain and grief... Sad, very sad only..

If you discount second-hand smoking (thank God for the EU Smoking Directive!) then I never smoked. I have an addictive personality but I know I'll never smoke in my life.

I'm glad I don't. Expensive, disgusting and shortens your life, and it's not even attractive (quite the opposite in fact).

I used to smoke in middle school and freshman year of HS, but it ended up giving me asthma. Go figure. Needless to say I went cold turkey and never picked up one again.

Tried it exactly one time, didn't care for it, never done it again. Not to mention the cost...

I never tried it, and I never will smoke. But I've had lots of exposure to second-hand smoke, as my dad lights up every day (but not much though).

I grew up around two parents who smoked for almost 30 years.

I have developed allergies to things I didn't used to have allergies to, I had terrible cardiovascular fitness, and, even though they quit a few years ago, I seem to be developing athsma.

So no.
