I searched for this, and it didn't seem to be a thread [except for in drug-related threads, or where to purchase them in Japan and such.]

What do you think of smoking? I mean just tobacco, normal cigarettes you can buy at most shops. Here in the UK the age to buy cigarettes used to be 16, but now it's gone up to 18 thankfully! Of course, it doesn't stop kids getting hold of cigarettes, but what it does stop is people hassling me in a morning to buy them cigarettes, because I'm not old enough anymore. I wouldn't have bought them anyway, as I personally despise cigarettes, but they threaten you and stuff which isn't all that great first thing in a morning.

So, do you smoke? How and why did you start? What age is it to smoke in your country, and do you think this is a good idea?
