Smoking

Smoking is someting that I've done for a number of years now. Well,to be honest, I've smoked for the past seven years. Apparently this is not a good thing. As you may or may not know, I found out the other day that smoking is actually BAD for your health. That's right people, it's been known to cause things like emphaziema, cancer, and a bunch of other terrible things. I know, I know, I was shocked when I heard this too but I swear, it is the truth. All the coughing and hacking that comes with smoking, believe it or not, doesn't help you but actually hurts you. And here I thought that cigarettes were a really good way to clean out my lungs. I should have known that something like cigarettes, which have such a pleasant aroma once you've smoked one, must have had a catch. After all the mornings that I've hacked up gross phlem, I should have known that it was cigarettes that were causing it and not that pesky five year cold I thought I had. Jeez, I thought that pregnant women were the only one's that cigarettes were actually bad for because I trust my government and I know that if cigarettes were bad, then my government would have quickly told me so by stamping it on the box next to the big warning for pregnant women.

Come on people, are you really that stupid? Is it really necessary to sue tobacco companies for not telling you NOT to use their product because it may hurt you? That's like Ford saying, "Don't drive our vehicles because you might get in a horrible wreck and die." Not gonna happen, m'kay? If your gonna smoke then you should have the commen sense enough to know that cigarettes maybe aren't good for you. What, are we all two years old? It's time to grow up and suffer the consequences for your actions. It's not the tobacco companies that ought to be punished, it's us. We, the one's who are stupid enough to by this horrible product, are the one's who should, and will, suffer because of our own poor decisions. You don't see people suing casino's because they lost all their rent and food money at the slot machines. Well, maybe I spoke too soon on that one, but I think you get the point. That's enough bitching for one blog. See ya
