Smoking

[Ravenshire]

Yeah, the notion of "cutting down" was always a fool's errand for people like us wasn't it? But this is something different I think; some people really do just not feel the need for it except in very limited times/situations. The main reason it doesn't make sense to me is just that you need to have a certain amount of nicotine in your system to get the buzz in the first place, so if some people can literally have one smoke a month or whatever, I don't see how it could physically provide any satisfaction; you'd need to have a few just to get the effect, is what I'm saying.

That's not necessarily true.  I was in the hospital once and wasn't allowed outside for a few weeks.  When I finally was, I lit up.  It floored me.  I was dizzy and felt like throwing up.

Same here. If I had a smoke right now, I wouldn't be able to drive for probably fifteen/twenty minutes. Tolerance levels vary and, they'll change with exposure as well. Get me back to a pack-a-day and I'll be smoking while driving again.
