Is it cold in here?:
Depending on which Google result you believe, between 5 billion and 50 billion bacteria in a human mouth. Cigarette smoke may actually be sterile.
Hannelore was afraid of cigarettes, too, and was smoking to see if she could overcome a fear (http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1046).

Remember Hanners is essentially mentally ill, and mentally ill people have a...logic all their own. Doesn't make sense to us, but works for them. Half the time they see US as the crazy ones.

Yeah, coz the 4000 or so chemicals in a cigarette's smoke aren't nearly as bad as the bacteria in a human mouth. Bacteria which are pretty much harmless when exchanged between mouths, as they have specifically evolved to thrive there.
Given the choice between smoking or kissing, I'll take the "disgusting" exchange of saliva any day.
SJCrew:
I think you guys missed the part where in the same comic she mentions she was jacked up on anti-anxiety meds. That's not just Hanners craziness, that's a pinpoint medical source. She wasn't being herself.
She can try smaller-scale stuff like dating and mild contact, but I very much doubt she'd go on and try smoking again in her normal (yet still unstable) state of mind. Even as a character who's full of surprises, I'd imagine she recognizes cigarettes to be more disgusting than anything the human body can produce.

Man Jeph's anatomy has really upped the ante lately. Now if only his ability to draw objects such a windex would improve as much....
