You obviously have no idea who I am, so I'm going to be really, really nice and not get into a FLAEM WAR with you.
I couldn't agree more it is a dirty habit, however i do feel sorry for those who started due to peer pressure and now are having trouble giving up. Good luck and fair play to those who are trying to quit remember 'don't give up giving up'.
I can appreciate its a difficult habit to stop and hope those that are trying to stop ate successfull at it.
But I am 31, and no, I'm not particularly afraid of cancer, etc... By the time I have to worry about such things I'll either buy a pair of vat grown lungs or the cybernetic equivalent. I'm counting on science keeping ahead of whatever abuse I can give myself.
Besides, everyone has to die of something, don't they? Apologies to Dennis Leary, but they say smoking takes 10 years off your life, right? Who cares? It's the worst 10 years, the ones at the end, the crapping your pants in some filthy nursing home where your ungrateful children stuck you. Frankly, I don't care to live when I'm too old to get it up without the help of viagra.
Who cares who you are, its whirly that has the respect of people on here.
Hopefully in the fututre there will be some good medical solutions avaible to those who have fucked up there lungs but do you really think we should rely on this? Why should the NHS have to waste there money on those who dnt really give a fuck when theres people who have looked after themselves that want to live?
Maybe it does cut of the worse 10years of your life but then again maybe it makes it alot worse.
Sorry to come across as a cunt Mr Whirly but i didnt really dig your point of view.
I think this thread i wish i hadnt of started could go on forever!
