The wonders of the internet, and planet Earth, it's full of hypocrites.
Much to my dismay, I am one too, I smacked a smoke out of my brother's face years ago, even though I smoke myself. I know all too well the dangers and health risks attributed to smoking, and wouldn't want to see him start down the same path.
Ahh, their tax dollars, I've heard that arguement all too many times before. The last time someone went off on an anti-smoking tirade, someone else posted stats stating that smokers contribute far more to government coffers through taxes. Those taxes offsetting any health care spending that might result from their smoking by a long shot.
I'd look up the stats myself, but I don't really care.
After reading your contributions to this thread, and others, I have no doubt you'd like to set fire to someone in an oxygen tent, especially if they didn't agree with you. You're smart enough to realise that's what would happen when you light a match in that environment.
While you're looking up the stats, please look up what obese people cost health care systems around the world, compared to smokers. Also drug abusers, alcoholics, and stressed out control freaks.
I have to agree GiGi, it is, and I've seen a few instances where people have voted another's pics very low just to be petty. I turned mine off as soon as it all started, I don't want to participate in the popularity contests on the site.
RE: Here's one for the men..............
Nobody has to lie, it's a choice, and for some I think it becomes a habit, seemingly easier than facing the truth after years of being full of it.Some people obviously enjoy it too, look at used car sales people and politicians, they don't seem to mind at all.
