This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

I was in the military, and smokers got breaks.
It does have a felt effect, but is very mild. The thing is that the body loves nicotine, and even if you’re not consciously getting high, your body is getting high. That’s why vapes were able to become popular.
The body loves it so much, the smoke stops smelling bad to you.
And finally, the fact that it smells bad & keeps people away is a GOOD thing.
When I quit smoking, I pretty much stopped going to parties, conventions, dance clubs, and concerts. Having an excuse to get out of the crowd and noise and decompress for ten minutes every couple of hours made "going out" so much more tolerable for me.
Easy. Say you're going for a smoke and then don't actually smoke.
You and your rational solutions... You are clearly not addicted.
Yeah, chances are one day that'd lead to smoking again. Likely pretty quickly.
Did this at work all the time. I want to hangout and chat too
Don't forget the nicotine fix.
