it is looked down upon honestly amongst close friends.

in the family both my side and in-law, it is a big no-no. i dont know about extended family , i could care less and i think they dont care too.

at work? half the people smoke i think.

I don't smoke at all except for an occasional cigar, my girlfriend thinks it's disgusting and the worse habit someone can have, my roommate/best friend smokes cigs occasionally and the other don't have much of a care one way or the other. We're talking about tobacco correct?

It differs depending on whether you're talking about cigars, cigarettes, pipe, or weed. Oddly enough, people are more accepting of weed than any of the others.

I totally agree that weed is seen as more acceptable to smoke than cigarettes. Cigars get hate due to their association with various demographics that people love to hate, i.e. Wall Street, etc.

It just seems funny, and cracks me up. Since i've been looking for apartments, this scenario has come up more than once:

Them: You smoke?
Me: Smoke what?
Them: Anything. We smoke weed in the house, so if you're not okay with that, we need to know.
Me: Oh yeah. That's not a big deal. I probably won't smoke weed but I don't have a problem with it. It's good to know that I can smoke my cigars though. Sometimes I smoke cigarettes when i'm drunk.
Them: You can't smoke cigarettes in here!!!!!!

Yeah, I should have clarified that it's cigarettes I'm asking about.

Among my friends it's quite accepted to smoke, although I personally don't smoke on a regular basis. Though it tends to be a lot more smoking now that summer is approaching.

Most smoke. I don't really trust non-smokers, they're up to no good.

Looked down upon pretty hard by everyone I know. From the health effects to my girlfriend getting absolutely repulsed at the sight of cigarettes, I'd never smoke.

I have a few assorted groups of friends. Most do not smoke at all. One group smokes a lot. It's so weird hanging out with them because people are taking cigarette breaks outside the bar like once an hour.

I don't smoke but most of my friends smoke when they drink which is just about every weekend. So to me, smoking is no big deal.

No one cares. When my friends were mostly European, they cared even less. One did try to quit by using nicotine gum. He was roundly made fun of and offered cigarettes whenever possible (Scandinavian/German Europeans). When my roommate was a hipster, she seemed to think it was a plus. When she left we accidentally took an overly--but well concealed during the walkthrough--christian roommate to take her place, she seemed to care more.

All my friends smoke, I don't really know anyone who doesn't, this includes cigarettes and various other things.
