Interesting question. Not one that I'd ever thought about, being a non-smoker!

I have tasted a cigarette as a teenage, and I didn't like it, still don't now.

The pipe is not handy while working. But I love to smoke pipe when reading.

No, I never smoke. I always buy my smoked herrings in the shop in the harbour...
Another strange poll at ProZ - very professional indeed.

Actually, I don't find it off topic at all : it could well relate to occupational health and safety issues
On the other hand, I don't mind off-topic polls, I find them amusing, interesting and often enlightening.
Ciao, D.

Some off-topic polls might be interesting but this one is totally pointless.

Yes, I smoke a lot. Not thoughtlessly and none of this stuff that you can buy at the check-out stand. I do like fine French cigarettes. A box of any other commercial stuff might rot on my desk and become stale. I don't smoke because it is a habit or... he, he, against popular believe, an addiction.
I also order imported tobaccos from Belgium and Holland and roll them with a little special machine, then I keep them in an engraved silver cigarette case.

Smoking fine cigarettes should be compared to smoking fine cigars (which I do too, BTW). Don't toss all those smokers into one pot and call them addicts. Or would you call a wine connoisseur automatically a drunk or wino?
However, I love smoking cigarettes while working. It makes any creative pause worthwhile.

| if i still smoked | Aug 4, 2010 |
i'd smoke while working! Nicole's post reminded me of that relaxing cigarette pause.
However I admit I still smoke once in a blue moon....like on my birthday or social occasion but very rarely and not while working.

... and never inside.
I smoke at powwows and conferences for instance (if I am not the only smoker). Amazing to see how easy it is to start a(n interesting) conversation with complete strangers, around an ashtray.

See? There are smokers - and there are smokers. And not everyone of those evil smokers eats little children.
My good old Zippo just made "Click!". The one that a friend of mine bought while traveling Cambodia. A very old Zippo with an engraving of the Liberty Bell and the inscription "USS Independence", so it must have belonged to a soldier. This Zippo made its way to Germany and is now back in the US after all those years.
Fine cigarette.
Click!

What I don't understand is how people actually can enjoy a cigarette outside. We don't enjoy food while standing up, right?

It's good to know we're all different — and alive!
I still hope we'll all get to meet for coffee one day, and I wouldn't mind going to the smoking area for the occasion (although I don't smoke).

| Two cigarettes per day :-) | Aug 4, 2010 |
I don't smoke while working and I don't smoke in the house, but for my partner and I those two daily cigarettes are a fun and relaxing ritual (one after lunch, one after dinner).
To each his (her) own!
