It's bad enough we've got high-school dropouts with driver's licenses operating heavy machinery while still hung over from their 14-yr-old daughter's panty party last night. Our roads are still safe, and so are our children. But you smoke too. Still. And no matter how many times you play your scratch tickets hoping for an early retirement, you feel like you succeeded when you get the $2 win on that $5 ticket and drive 10 miles out of your way, burning through your $60 tank of gas to get one more chance at scratching your way to a better future. But it's pointless. You'd be better off in Vegas passing out pornographic literature to passersby for six bucks an hour, but at least you'd have your health, off the crazy highways, and might even be able to afford a couple rounds at the $2/$4 Hold'em table at the Bellagio. But you still suck in those 4,700 chemical compounds including 60 known carcinogens with each innocent cigarette. I mean, what if I told you that cigarette smoking is responsible for more than 85% of lung cancers and is also associated with cancers of the mouth, pharynx, larynx, esophagus, stomach, pancreas, uterine cervix, kidney, ureter, bladder and colon. And cigarette smoking has also been linked to Leukemia, you dumb ass. Apart from the carcinogenic aspects of smoking, links to increased risks of cardiovascular diseases (including stroke), sudden death (you should be so lucky), cardiac arrest, peripheral vascular disease and aortic aneurysm have also been established. Many components of cigarette smoke have also been characterized as Ciliotoxic materials that irritate the lining of the respiratory system resulting in increased bronchial mucus secretion and chronic decreases in pulmonary and mucociliary function. So keep on smoking, and maybe you'll do us all a favor by ridding us of your twisted judgment and ignorant political and socioeconomic opinions. Nice try.
