Same here... 
Anyway after a tough and nice cup of black coffee there's nothing comparable.

I have quit for 6 months now. I read a great book by Alan Carr on how to stop smoking, that really helped me.
Actually cigarettes don´t have a taste (Remember your first smoke?)
It´s just drug addiction.

I rarely smoke. Though sometimes I smoke a couple of cigarettes on a friday or staurday night with some friends. On parties, I smoke a bit more, but otherwise, nah. I LOVE cigars though

Never!!!
I can't stand (not physically) all that related to smoking. I hate the smell of cigarettes. I try to avoid to pass near the smokers when walking on the streets.

I used to smoke about a pack and 1/2 a day. After I stopped drinking, my consumption went way down. I quit completely about two years ago. I still enjoy a good cigar, but I only smoke about one, or two, a week. Cigs are are a tough one to kick. I would suggest using tactics similar to beating any addiction. Primarily, staying away from those that are smoking. Also, don't let your friends smoke in front of you.

Though I've never smoked, I dread to think how much I cigarette smoke I have inhaled through passive smoking. Sitting on the top deck of buses, drinking in the pub with friends, even in a working environment.
Thankfully, Scotland has now banned smoking in all enclosed public places. What a difference.

I have smoked since 14,and average a pack a day.It is basically my only vice.I quit last year for about 7-8 months but recent events in my personal life have caused me to start again.
And I agree with Guigo,that first cigarette of the day along with your first cup of coffee is incomparable.

Don't smoke.
Tried some during my army service, did not like it and never tried again.

Pretty much the same here, I quit for almost half a year, and now I'm back smoking again.
And I agree the first smoke and a cup of coffee of the day is great. I usually like a nice fat bowl too.

I have smoked other things, but not regular cigarettes. I won't start either, because cigarette smokers tend to smell bad.

I tried a year ago or so and it made me sick so I never plan to do it again. It's a pretty nasty habbit, and an expensive one at that (I'd rather get 2-3 more CDs a week then a pack a day).

I used to smoke 60 a day. That was just on an average day. If I went out in the evening to the pub it would hit 90 and if I went to a club later I could add another 20.
I gave up over 7 years ago and havent touched one since.
I have,however,put on nearly 4 STONE in weight....so instead of dying of lung cancer I will now expire through heart disease....
