(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); If you're an uneducated 14 year old, like most of NGU, and have never done anything then don't bother answering this question.

I'm just curious because I'm 18, almost 19 in 2 months, and I have never smoked a cigarette. Not once and not even a single puff or drag or whatever you want to call it. I guess I'm somewhat proud of it because I don't know how many other people my age could say the same, specifically that aren't a "goody two shoes" and don't do anything. :p

The reason I don't is because I don't see a point. They don't make you high, they are addictive, I think they are gross, and they are linked directly to cancer. I also have family and know others that got cancer because of cigarettes.

I smoke cigars though, and have very recently too. I just don't smoke them often and obviously you don't inhale them, so it's different.

I talked to someone the other day that is in the same boat as me; has never smoked one cigarette, but smokes weed, cigars, etc. , and I was kind of surprised. All my friends do or have in the past.

Smoked my first cigarette at the age of 16, I realized how stupid it was and I never touched it again. However if I'm with my family and maybe if it's a special occasion I'll smoke a cigar. Now in regards to pot I started smoking at the age of 14 and continued to the end of high school. I'm a sophomore in college and I don't smoke nearly as much as I use to. I do enjoy the hookah occasionally though.

I didn't smoke a cigarette till I was about 21 or 22 just to try it. Didn't like it so haven't touched it since.

About four years ago when I was 14 I was hanging out with some black kids that I smoked weed with and they took a Marlboro Menthol from their older brother. They were seventh graders at the time and they were inhaling it. I took a drag but didn't inhale because I don't want that shit in my lungs.

It was one of those peer pressure things. Amen on keeping strong and not smoking cigarettes Travis ^^

But now I'm more into alcohol and cigars than marijuana lol.

I'm an ex smoker, quit about 3 years back now, just curious you say there's no point in smoking due to no effect ie a high but you have taken up cigars which also have no high, also due to not inhaling you do still have a very high chance of getting mouth cancer

First thing I ever smoked was a Cigar, was nice though it's an expensive habit I do it once in a blue moon so it's affordable last time I had one was at a friends birthday poker night.

I'm 17 and have never touched a cigarette, cigar nor weed. I'm not a goody two shoes, I just feel they are expensive habits and I don't want to become addicted to that shit.
