As a 19 year old in college, I feel like every other person I walk by on campus they seem to have a cigarette in their hand. One day me and my communications professor got to talking and she thinks that because our generation is so technologically savvy that we always have our phone ipod tablet etc. in hand. so what she explained to me was that having a cigarette in your hand kind of satisfies the need to constantly have a hand busy. i thought this was actually a very good correlation.

any of your thoughts on this would be nice

"need to constantly have a hand busy"

This definitely describes me in public. If I'm not holding something I feel completely awkward.

I'd have to agree with your communications prof. on the subject. But it could also just be the stress people are put through nowadays. It seems like a lot more people I know now smoke because they're always under a lot of pressure whether it be at work or school.
