Why does smoking and drinking alcohol go together so well?

Question

It seems like it could be from the alcohol letting your inhibitions go, but why does smoking seem to be the biggest thing uninhibited?

Answer 1

I quit smoking a little over a year ago, but I still love the sauce. I do remember how well smoking and drinking went hand in hand, I could smoke a pack and a half on a good night of drinking. Now I don't wake up after a night of drinking with a pain in my throat from chain smoking and that extra 100 bucks saved every month on not smoking, now buys me higher quality drinks. I still sometimes, even after a year of not smoking, long for a cigarette on a rare occasion of drinking, pretty ****** up huh. Anyways to answer your question, I believe it is because you let yourself go when drunk, I mean I can eat 2 double cheese burgers and fries when I am wasted and want to boink twice as many chics as well. Oh that alcohol....what trouble will it get me into next time (wwwaaank wwwaaaaaank)

Answer 2

I quit smoking and I cannot even stand the smell of them. I think if you really want to enjoy the drink your spending money on say a glass of cristal or a nice cocktail then do not smoke. Everyone knows that smoking screws up your sense of smell and taste.

I do know this because now that I can smell smokers I cannot believe I smoked for so long it just makes me want to hurl.
