Whoa there buddy, calm down. At least have the cajones to admit that smoking cigarettes is, for anyone seriously concerned about their health and longevity, not the smartest course of action. I don't have a problem with smokers as people, i just think many of them are overly sensitive to criticism because deep down they know what they are doing to themselves is not only foolish, but expensive.
What if i walked up to you and made a proposition. What if i offered to have you pay me 4-5 dollars american every day in exchange for me slowly deteriorating your health to the point where you can't even walk up a flight of stairs without an oxygen tank. Not only that, but in exchange for your money i would also make it so the health of everyone in your immediate vicinity was adversely effected too. Tell me this doesn't sound completley ridiculous. This is a proposition smokers accept over and over, every day. Tell me that's a good decision worthy of respect.
