    Meh, let them put me there and see how uninteresting my life really is. Plus, this statement began “if I had cancer” which I am currently unaware of having. So if I ended up with cancer we caused by weedkillers, then there is a problem, but that’s a highly unlikely situation. Hell, if I had cancer it would be from 20 years of smoking cigs (which I did quit, but it could still happen). And at that point, you can’t really sue the cig companies, not because of law, but the fact that cigs cause cancer is such general knowledge, that it really comes down to personal choice and stupidity to do so… man I miss cigs 😪.

      You dont miss cigs. You miss nicotine. Nicotine is 7 times more addictive than heroin. Your brain is still wired to crave it.

        Well, I vape with nicotine damn near constantly. I miss the weight of the smoke in the lungs, I miss the pressure to make sure I get sufficient drags in while burning one because it will just burn away or go out if you don’t. These among other factors show that it’s legitimately the cigs that I miss. Mind you there’s a lot I don’t miss, like the stank on my fingers, clothes, and hair. I don’t miss “nic lips” which is the residue tar that builds up on the lips and in the mustache when you smoke a lot. And I definitely don’t necessarily miss the taste. So it’s a trade off for sure. But I know I do miss cigs overall.
