If you smoke again, I will mail you a piece of cancerous lung with some stringy atheromatous toppings and some brown tooth scrapings as a garnish.  :-P

The other thing that may be a problem (and I have experienced this twice), is that when you are a non-smoker and you go out with somebody who smokes, then there are actually three parties to that relationship: its you, the girl and her smokes.
If there is an argument, then the girl and her newly-lit cigarette will scowl at you from amidst the smoke and that will be her barrier. That cigarette is her buddy, its what she confides in.


And there's nothing more off putting than the smell of old ashtrays.

It probably makes smokers concentrate better, but their baseline concentration without smoking is probably impaired due to nicotine withdrawl symptoms to start with, so perhaps it merely brings them back up towards that of a non smoker ;-)

Ever seen a regular smoker try to do anything complicated when they need a cigarette? Half the time they can barely light it without shaking...
