Suck It
Why did a second guy ever start smoking?
"Here, put this in your mouth. Set it on fire and suck on it."
It's obviously a stupid thing to do. When there's a structure fire, people are hospitalized for smoke inhalation. If there's ever a fire, I should be able to save everyone in the building before my nic fits subside.
Every time I smoke, I realize how ridiculous it is. Inhale smoke - by it's very nature, it's a bad idea. And yet, we keep doing it. Thanks to the tobacco companies, we have nicotine, and we become addicted. I'm not saying that we're not to blame, but they're not helping any.
Every month or so, I say I'm going to quit. Every fall and winter, I promise to quit so I can play hockey. And every game, I curse myself for giving up, because I still can't breathe.
Will I ever really quit? I hope so, but I seem to be a spineless candy ass.

Now, tobacco companies may not be the most ethical organizations on the planet, but give them some credit. You don't have nicotine in cigaretts because of tobacco companies. Nicotine naturally occurs in tobacco. You just have more nicotine in cigarettes thanks to tobacco companies. When you think about it, you are mostly smoking for the nicotine, so if they didn't add nicotine you would have to smoke more cigarettes to get the same amout of nicotine. In that respect, tobacco companies almost seem to be looking out for your health.
The reason you still can't
The reason you still can't breathe is because you do other things that are bad (fatties do love their cake, lack of exercise, etc). I've known plenty of people that could breathe just fine and smoked but they countered it by not being a lazy fatass.
I'm not saying there is anything wrong with being a fatass as I too am fat. Just stop bitching if you can't breathe and don't blame it on smoking.
Tom - that's some twisted
Tom - that's some twisted logic, but I see what you mean.
JymBob - screw you fatty! I've been pretty good lately. I ran out of money, so I can't eat much, and I've been playing racquetball or hockey 3-5 times a week, easily. My lungs get tired before the rest of me.
if you like putting things in
if you like putting things in your mouth, i have something that's much better for your health that you can put in your mouth.
all you need to do to stop smoking is discard all your cigarettes, matches, lighters, etc. that's what i did.. stopped all at once and i'm very happy i did. think about how silly an addiction like that is.
Replace one addiction with
Replace one addiction with another! No, wait...just get someone to follow you around constantly to yell at you when you want a smoke. ...Chew gum?
