RE: Why do folks still smoke Cigarettes despite the Surgeon Generals warning that they are liable to die Young ???
I like a lot of dumbass invincible people in their 20's used to smoke and so did almost all of the people I knew. I don't know if people in their 20's now are doing so but everyone I knew that was a smoker before isn't now. It seems we all kind of woke up and realized that this habit is terrible but it isn't because of the surgeon general warning... for me it was that I could feel the effects of smoking in my day to day life and it all just kind of seemed dumb at that point.
A lot of my friends quit when they had kids. For me, I just woke up one day and realized that I was getting nothing out of it and it is stupid.
It's been many years now and I don't ever feel compelled to return to it
Unfortunately, many don't have enough courage and or convinction to quit even when they desire !
Good we and other folks were able to pull through unhindered.
