Anyone else not like smoking for 8 months out of the year, but then pick it up when it gets cold? Curious if I'm the only one.

I, for some reason, enjoy smoking in the colder months, November - February. Then all of a sudden I think they're nasty again. I used to think it was only temporary but I've done this for about the past 5 years.

QFT.

I generally smoke all year round, but there's nothing better to me than putting a coat on and going out for a smoke.

Here's to a new year though... Quitting cigarettes is on my to-do list!

Yea I get that also, it makes more sense during the colder months for some reason. Smoking in the summer time feels really filthy cause of the humidity combined with 90F+ degree weather.

Quite a bit of layperson terminology in the above link, and well over 150 citations to other articles pointing back to the general study of nicotine addiction. It might explain a few things to those that want to stop smoking, and outline some of the newer methods of cessation (through pharmaceutical pursuits and positive reinforcement -- aka cognitive behavioral therapy, the only part of psychology that is related to science at all.)

Also related, and interesting finds on "the patch" and gum:
