When I bought cigarettes I smoked 15-20 a day. Occasionally 25 plus in a day when out on the town as a single fellow. Did this for about 25 years. Started with Rothmans king size, then switched to Export A regulars. When in the US bought Camel filters. I've gone with many brands over the years and honestly don't recall what brand or size I was smoking when I last stopped buying them (3-1/2 years ago was the second time I stopped smoking, and that was when I met my Lady).
It would be easy to have a cigarette again. The thought of the effects of a single cigarette make it unlikely though - I would get the spins, possibly the heaves, my eyes would water terribly and I would only see an unfocussed blur, my mouth would taste like shit for a day or more, and the smell would be coming out of my pores for at least 2 days. As you can see, in the past I would have a cigarette every few months when I first stopped, so the effects are well understood. I think being a smoker is like being an alcoholic, you are always a smoker but there are times you choose not to smoke.
I've smoked weed since my late teens, but stopped buying it when I had kids - budget constraints. I probably share a joint a couple/three times a year these days.
I had an ex Brother-in-Law who was a total asshole when it came to smoking. Ground on everyone about the evils and stupidity of the practice. Then he would quietly start smoking again for a couple of years until his next bout of purity, and not a word about his own health and stupidity.
