    Give them up! Hope you're not hooked. 1 in 2 of smokers die of cancer related disease (according to the ad anyways)

    An absolute ridiculous thread and habit to start and anybody who gives you a positive reply is an idiot!

    Starting smoking is the stupidest thing you will ever do in all your life. It'll be your greatest regret.

    Since you are only smoking 2 months give them up and save yourself the bother. It will be piss easy giving up after two months. You don't want to be like the rest of us who find it nearly impossible to quit smoking 20 a day.

    For the past two months I have being smoking John player blue. Its all I have ever tried so far and want to try other brands but I am unsure of any other ones out there.

    Anyone want to recommend good brands I could buy in a local shop?
    Why?

    Try an e-cig.

    Its way easier to start and you'll end up smoking any brand.

    Just don't. Not worth it for cash, health, or hangover

    Nearly every one of us that smoke would tell our younger selves not to take up the habit. At 20 a day, I'd have spent close on €50k on smokes since taking them up around 17. If I'd saved that money instead, it'd be a hell of a deposit for a house, or in terms a younger person might understand: a decent second hand Porsche.

    To think after all this time it took someone sitting at home online to finally make me realise that I am 'stupid'. Thanks for your kind words.

    If you have to smoke then organic cigarettes are a lot safer, The Radioactive fertilizer used to produce tobacco is what causes most lung cancer.

    Before the 1930s lung cancer was almost unheard of but once they started using

    Radioactive fertilizer lung cancer rates shot up.

    http://www.acsa2000.net/HealthAlert/radioactive_tobacco.html
    US Surgeon General C Everett Koop stated on national television in 1990 that tobacco radiation is probably responsible for 90% of tobacco-related cancer.8 Dr RT Ravenholt, former director of World Health Surveys at the Centers for Disease Control, has stated that "Americans are exposed to far more radiation from tobacco smoke than from any other source."
