2.
Someone who doesn't know whether they're coming or going.
They know smoking is bad, but do it anyway from time to time at social gatherings, i.e. clubs and bars, just to fit in and seem "cool".
They produce the opposite effect.
Real smokers and non-smokers alike, know these people are just losers who can't fit in with the crowd so they have to copy others to do so.
Plus they never buy their own packs because they're too cheap, so they beg around for cigarettes, and most of them just puff.
Bob : "Wtf is Marc trying to do with that cig? He doesn't even smoke"
John : "Meh.. who cares, he's just trying to impress"
Bob : "What? The ash tray? He looks like a penis"
John : "Yea well, he's not getting any cigs from me"
Bob : "Cheap ass social smoker ; we should beat his ass to death with a carton of smokes"
John : "Ok, hand me the burrito"
