Here's the rules:

1: Post something you have never done that you think many people do. 2: Read the other posts, if you have done that thing, upvote it. If you have not done that thing, downvote it. 3: If you believe the person is lying, call them out on it in a reply. 4: If you are called out, give the full story. 4a: If you see a thread containing the full story, boost the person you think is right and truthful.

Person who has the most upvotes when the thread dies wins.

Never have I ever as much as tried anything you can smoke (cigarettes, joints, shisha...).

I honestly don't understand why people smoke this stuff. cigarretes & vapes smell horrible, there's not even that many things to compare it to but its like car exhaust but worse. & I just can't get why people smoke things like marijuana. Exactly what's the point? Doesn't it basically turn you into a zombie temprorarily or something like that?

They mess with your feelings and/or perceptions, to pretty much cover all the bases. Generally, people try them because of peer pressure or curiosity about a potentially interesting experience, and keep using them because they enjoy the experience. Or because of more peer pressure and addiction, in some cases.

Tbh I think I can understand why people do it. For some using various substances are a quick and simple way to relax/numb unwanted emotions/etc.. Some start because of peer pressure. For others it's just learned behaviour (you're more likely to become a smoker if your parents are).

Personally, I've never as much as tried cigarettes because it just never appealed to me and I had mostly non-smoking friends and family. But I definitely have other bad habits I shouldn't have gotten into and have trouble getting rid of, so I get the feeling.
