Why do people smoke cigarettes?

[Motec]

I smoke because I like smoking.

I enjoy a ciggy after a meal, definitely after blowing my load, when I have a drink I'll have a smoke, I do so at work due to sheer boredom in the oilfield, maybe 3-4 a day. Its not like I miss the cash, if I need to worry about 20 bucks a pack, I've fucked up in life somewhere else.

No two people will be the same. Some people cant afford it, some smoke 50 a day, some need one the moment they wake up. Others just like the effect of nicotine.

after a meal, blowing my load, in the morning while my coffee is brewing, one when i have coffee, another one for my 2nd and 3rd cups of coffee, one before bed, one walking the dog, one for shits and giggles, one after a bad dream, one after i get laid in a dream, while drinking massive amounts of liquor, one before i smoke pot (the cold tends to sober up every high i get), one after i get too high(3 bowls from bong, 1 from bubble and another from pipe, pretty strategically really, i drink a lot of water so im out in my kitchen re-fill a pitcher and my bubbler is there, bong is at my desk, and pipe right next to the bed, every now and then ill spark one up during drunken stoned sex, of course a joint is followed right after (fuckin hot tbh), one after i clear my camp and have 28 minutes to med/afk/break

Purest, no one is falling for it. You're a bulbous sweathog. We all know it. The best part is your incessant reinforcement of that fact. Maybe better knowing you're also a disgusting smoker...maybe.

I smoke because people who don't smoke all seem to be dicks

Any interest in Taco Bell rolling out a Tobacco Taco? Anyone?

i will never understand why anyone looking for a nicotine fix would rather smoke cigarettes than use dip or chew (for men at least).

dip tastes better, is cheaper, doesn't leave you with shitty smelling breath/clothes, can be used indoors, gives a longer/more satisfying buzz, isn't any more dangerous than smoking (if anything it's "safer", no chance of lung cancer).

I've used dip for about 5 years, ever since starting while playing high school baseball, and recently decided to quit- so I'm not condoning it's use or anything but I will never understand why someone would rather smoke a cigarette

Just a guess but this might have something to do with the nicotine kick you get?

Example with cocaine:

Kick factor: Swallowing < Snorting < Injecting

for all the non-smokers: the aggregate risk of getting at least one form of cancer in your lifetime is 44.85% if you're a man, 38.08% if you're a woman.
