10 reasons to smoke a cigarette:
by Marcelo Hailer
1- Singular is the one we smoke in the morning, after about 8 hours without nicotine in the blood, the first puff makes the body and head function wonderfully again
2- After having breakfast at the bus stop, it helps time pass faster
3- It's also great for approaching a cat you have a crush on, for example, approaching him with the excuse of a lighter and bringing up the subject
4- The cigarette that comes after lunch accompanied by coffee is priceless
5- Nothing better than having a beer or any type of alcoholic drink with a cigarette, but it's good to have a spare pack in your pocket, because with every glass... a cigarette, eh
6- Another moment that calls for a good cigarette is when you are on the dance floor and that song that you love plays and that has somehow impacted your life or the moment you lived in;
7- When we go through a melancholy moment, or a pain in the ass, isolating yourself, putting on some music and smoking a nicotine is pure relief
8- Situation that calls for a cigarette and it's great: right after a great sex, the body stretched out on the bed, lights the cigarette...
9- When we are in a place or nightclub and we feel shy, smoking is great for giving us "self-security"
10- And to close: the classic "good night Cinderella", so we sleep peacefully without waking up with withdrawal syndrome
