I took some pretty high level chemistry classes during my college years. One of my classes we did these lab test with nicotine and rats. The effects and and genetic damage were severe.

But Tobacco isn't as bad for you as truth.com says it is. It generally shortens life spans by about 15 years for life long smokers. But not everyone who smokes is going to get cancer or die early. Alot of those factors are very per-determined.

But it does have things that are generally not good for you. Restricts blood vessels and your lungs, it is an accelerator, so it makes you stressed, and tobacco cost too much.

As for it smelling gross, personal preference. I happen to like a menthol smell on girls.

What bothers me even more is when smokers get all condescending to people trying to voice their concern *cough*cough*Elizabeth*cough*cough

:)
 
I'd never start smoking. I don't think I'd be the type of personality that would be able to quit if I got addicted. >_<
 
just a word of advice

You know, I don't get the appeal of huffing in toxic little bits, coating your poor lungs in ick. My mother once told me she'd kill me if I ever started smoking. Now, she picked up the habit again, and denies ever saying it. The way addiction messes with your mind and your defenses, so bad.. good advice!
 
Pork meat is bad, don't start eating it.
Soda is bad, don't start drinking it.
Alcohol is bad, don't start drinking it.
Cafeine is bad, don't start drinking it.
The sun is bad for your skin, don't start walking in its rays.
Stress is bad, don't have a career.
Smog is bad, don't live in a big city.
etc.

I love bacon.
Alcohol is awesome in cough syrup.
Caffiene is all that keeps me moving throughout the day.
I have a Vita D deficiency and have to have sunlight.
If it wasn't for stress I would not be such a joy in the chat room.
Smog....well.... I like clouds.
 
But pork isn't addictive :P . At least, I don't think it is? XD

Lol, I don't live very healthy myself I suppose. I just wanted to make clear that it's nonsense to just say smoking is bad, while alot of 'common' things in life are very unhealthy aswell.

Since other things are bad as well we should not emphasize that some things are especially dangerous? :p

everything in moderation. Oh and the rule on beef has been overturned, so don't be surprised if pork is too.
 
Never planned on it :P but gotta have me some caffeine xD
