I grew up in a smokers house. My first cig at age 16, went down like water down a drain. No cough , no hack, nothing. Was addicted at that point. I laugh at smoker haters.
Now lets talk about some real killers.
1) food- all the chemicals and junk in food has got to be about as bad as smoking a cig.
2) diabetes- used to be ask kids if someone in there family smoked most would raise there hands. This is the story for diabetes now. ( yes there is a commercial).
3) Stupidity- your crying, bitching, whining, carrying on, being a dick will cause people to rage and loose it
4) Obesity- the number one killer in America. Obesity causes diabetes, heart disease etc etc. Yes you are free to do as you wish. So dont bitch about my smoke , that makes me look at your unpleasantness. I will quit shoveling cigs in my mouth , when you quit shoveling everything else consumable in yours.
Why do I smoke? Go to a nursing home, I dont want to be one of them.

Real killers?
Chances are youll die a slow and painful death that i cant imagine how much money that shit is going to cost in the US.
My dad died from lung cancer 3 weeks ago, and i can tell you, he didnt wanna die and wished he hadnt started smoking and still had 25 years left at 63. My dad had to be hospitalized for 3 months, it was all "free" because of how the canadian health care system works.
Nalkin and the others are right, its peer pressure. At 13, i made the choice that i would use drugs but not start smoking, at least with drugs you get a buzz out of them, im glad i had that rationale at 13, watching these wrecking coughs from my dad in his last year, that shit is nasty nasty stuff.
