It's not REALLY REALLY addictive..his point is that we're addicted to the sucking aspect, and that that specifically is what in actuality calms us down..more so than the cigarette itself.

At low doses, nicotine potently enhances the actions of norepinephrine and dopamine in the brain, causing a drug effect typical of those of psychostimulants. At higher doses, nicotine enhances the effect of serotonin and opiate activity, producing a calming, pain-killing effect. Nicotine is unique in comparison to most drugs, as its profile changes from stimulant to sedative/pain killer in increasing dosages and use.
So it stimulates you at first but then the more you take in it's a sedative.
I used to smoke a cigar every weekend, but I've stopped enjoying that. I just don't care for the taste of tobacco much anymore, not to mention the side effects and the money it costs.
Here's a neat little quote too:
Nicotine content in cigarettes has actually slowly increased over the years, and one study found that there was an average increase of 1.6% per year between the years of 1998 and 2005. This was found for all major market categories of cigarettes.[6]

I'm pretty sure the reason for that is because the cigarette companies have been getting slammed for all the weird ass additives they put in them. So they cut back on random chems and increase the Nicotine content, which makes it more addictive. But Nicotine actually causes the tobacco to burn slower as well, so people smoke less. That's why most companies don't leave out all the additives.
I'm so happy I smoke additive free tobacco. Since I changed to hand rolling my rettes 3 years ago (been smoking 4ish), I can't stand the taste or smell of prerolled cigs. Just the smell is so bad to me, that I sometimes gag when I get a small whiff of a Camel or Marlboro, or whatever. I think its the rat poison.

smoking causes cancers to.
Not everyone develops cancer. Makes me want to look around to see if anyone actually put a % to it.
Woooaahhh... So there's all those beneficial effects. That's so cool.
I bet the girls who ate shit on vid wld probably tell u that now thanx to that, they can jump higher, lift heavier weights and have smoother skins now.
Different things for different ppl.
I think the best solution is to smoke cigarettes only when you go out and drink...
That is the reason I cant quit. Its hard to drink and not smoke, and so everytime I go out drinking I end up smoking too which completely breaks my will to quit.

So when you wake up the next day, dont smoke.
If you cant stop smoking, get it to a minimum...
Im talking from an experienced point of view here... xD
my bad lemme reword, smoking increases chances of lung and pancreatic cancer, the two most deadly with both being incurable at later stages, when they are most likely to be found.

I dont want to start smoking. Ive tried it once or twice but i dont want any of the health effects it causes and i personally would rather spend my money on other things. I hear people talk about how hard it is to quit..
Never had a smoker's hack, but then, I don't think I've ever smoked enough to cause that.
I take that back, when I broke up with my last gf, I smoked about 10 a day for a week or so. My voice was nice and gravely by the end of that week, and I actually stopped smoking for about 4 months. And now I've gotten back to my one a day, evening smoke.

But smoking every day is money wasting, and fucks you up.
Fuck you, I'm a dragon.
So when you wake up the next day, dont smoke.
