besides the fact that...

... its bad for you ...
It is so yesterday - Its like an 80s or 90s thing!
the other day after a long long time an acquaintance started to tell me how maybe the good thing about smoking is he has met some great and interesting people on his smoking breaks at work- outside bars etc.
i am surprised that 1. people of our generation smoke and 2. they think its cool!

5. What about those really gross lip stains that look like oral STDs/pus filled boils in some cases?? I am grosed out writing about it.

But anyway, its an individual's choice...
One could make a similar case for factors causing Obesity?

ofcourse its an invididuals choice - and i individually just think its such a 'yesterday' thing to do!
... one can make that case for obesity - but that can never start of as wanting to be cool or meeting interesting people :)

is it a social catalyst too.(just like drinking)?
maybe

is it cool?
NO..really LOL!!..NO WAY!!

is it uncool?... well people judge a lot..i do too. so yes, judge me

does it free your mind for a while?
well it only seems so

does it help when you are waiting for a friend, a business client, a bus or a train?
HELL Yeah!!!

i think it silly movies they expose to us, which brainwash people into believing its "cool"
ex: guys in a casino blowing whiffs of dragon like smoke

this is how smoking should be advertized:

A person waiting for a bus in Los Angeles. They are never on time. Thats when books, mags,iphones writing pads and a pen dont help
Only cigarettes do!
