    The fact is, with the world we live in being like it is, why the fuck not smoke? For the chance to live a little further into the distopian hellscape of our impending future? Some reward that is for denying myself something I enjoy.

      It’s not a great plan to encourage yourself to smoke while expecting a future society with even worse healthcare

      COPD fucking sucks, my dude. Living longer isn’t the goal, living comfortably is and being unable to breathe all the time is the worst.

      Even if the world becomes a hellscape do you want to meet your maker choking on bits of your own lungs or breathing normally?

      That is why you shouldn’t smoke. Lung cancer and COPD are not things you want to deal with if you want to do anything remotely physical later in life.
