Of course I smoke to relax and unwind. Cigs make a good stress reliever, and I even list that as one of the benefits of smoking.

I wish I could see guys smoke while playing sports on TV.

If there's anybody here who smokes before going to bed, light up one for me. You can't smoke while sleeping. So you might as well get a few extra cigs in before hitting the sack.

I got a 46% although that still equates to an average of 2-5 cigs per day.

I'd like to see a sports announcer or newscaster on TV smoking. Smoking appears to be banned in all the places they play pro sports in.

Yeah, lol, I knew the source of this quiz seemed pretty untrustworthy, but I still think the quiz was pretty entertaining to fill out, it kind of made me realize why I smoke in the first place....

I just took the plunge and that is my score in the quotes. I answered yes to twenty of the questions. Pretty cool test.

Yeah, it made me realize I'm more of a social smoker. As usually when I'm by myself I smoke the occasional cig to relax or ease stress. But sometimes when I'm hanging out with my friends or other smokers I'll chainsmoke up to a half a pack, I've only done this twice ever though usually it's just 2-3 when with friends. It just depends on how long I have to waste, how long any of them keep smoking, and what I'm smoking as I've never been able to get through more than 2-4 unfiltered at once but have a much higher tolerance for filtereds.

Although I can go for a couple days to a week with out smoking or smoking just 1-2 a day.

I am only 7% addicted. Sometimes I will have a smoke to reward myself for finishing a very hard or arduous task, but never when I am already feeling stressed or upset. That is just asking to set up a very bad and difficult to break habit.

Although I can go for a couple days to a week with out smoking or smoking just 1-2 a day.

Yeah, same here. My usual consumption is one per day. I have no problem skipping days, and I usually skip smoking on Saturdays, as I don't need the stimulating effect preventing me from sleeping on those nights. (I run my church's audio ministry, and I have to be up very early to get in and set it all up and run the services.)

Smoking is a habit or a hobby if you wanna call making your own cigs a hobby. But it's not an addiction.....let alone a bad addiction. The bad addictions are people addicted to drugs and alcohol.

If smoking was an addiction, then I'd be smoking every single cig brand on planet Earth, not just the brand(s) I like the most.

I always wondered (when I think of antismokers) how come 1000s of smokers smoke ONLY Marlboros, or some will smoke ONLY Camels (you get this pic) if smoking WAS an addiction?

A person who loves smoking Marlboros doesn't seem to have an interest in smoking other brands. But if something is gonna be called a bad addiction, then the fact there are 1000s of smokers out here who will smoke only one brand and that's it shows smoking ain't an addiction to begin with.

Kids are addicted to eating candy, but they eat all kinds of candy. Not just one candy brand. Eating all kinds of candy makes it an addiction for them. But you can't say the same on smokers smoking every single cig brand out there.
