Regarding smoking

I really don't know why I posted this thread, but I thought I'll just post anyway.

Who here is actually trying to stop smoking?

What I find effed up as I grow up, is seeing a person whip out a cigarette, whip out a lighter, and light up all of that !@#$ and then seeing all that smoke just pouring out!

And then, I think about the tobacco companies out there; the evil guys, and think, what if I had to work there? I'd be helping people dying... I know my heart that I'll never be working there, but I'm just using my imagination and thinking outside the square. No, really.

And on this tobacco site I'm on, there are pages that are telling you about health risks regarding smoking and all, and I'm like, THEY DON'T GIVE A DAMN! I bet you the guys that put all that *bleep* up don't give a *bleep*!

Here are some quotes off the site I'm on (British American Tobacco):

Not all cigarettes are the same. Smokers around the world prefer many different tastes and strengths and our companies aim for excellence in every step of manufacturing.

Swedish-style snus isn’t smoked. It is finely-ground moist tobacco that comes either loose or in tiny sachets and is placed under the upper lip.

"The progress of the tobacco trade…is certainly one of the most curious that commerce presents. That a plant originally smoked by a few savages, should succeed, in spite of the most stringent opposition in church and state, to be the cherished luxury of the whole civilised world; to increase with the increase of time, and to end in causing so vast a trade and so large an outlay of money; is a statistical fact, without an equal parallel."

It's not that I've ''just found out now'' that smoking is bad, I found out ages ago, but I'm just saying, the more I see things like this, the more it disgusts me... kinda...

And then you read this... lol. ^

Okay, you guys get it!

Just getting back on track, anyone trying to quit smoking currently?

Umm... okay. That's the end of my rant.
