smoking

To smoke or not to smoke? It is a matter of free choice, but freedom is always limited to what consequences you are willing to live (or die) with. If you want to indulge in the many pleasures of smoking, try to look cool outside the pub or impress someone who thinks cigarettes makes you sexually appealing; go right ahead. If you want to be an ass and subject your secondhand smoke to someone who’s looking bothered by it; you’re free to do that as well. As long as you’re ok with them not liking you very much, or kicking you in the kneecaps.

I guess it’s also a part of the personality. Who you want to be and how you want others to perceive you. What you like, how you like it and what you are willing to sacrifice to have it. Be it cigarettes… or whatever.

Is it bad? Between commercialized interests downplaying the health issues and putting restrictions against smoking in public areas… I don’t know. Final words - It might be bad for you (and possibly the people around you), but it’s not bad.
