If you could smoke and be guaranteed to not get lung cancer, emphysema, etc., would you?

No chance.

1) It's expensive

2) Your breath smells awful

3) Your clothes stink

4) You have to go outside of your office with the other smelly smokers and stand around in the rain

5) For the ladies: It makes your voice sound atrocious

No, it yellows your teeth, lips, fingers, and makes you stink. It's just stupid.

What about the sweet nicotine buzz? Isn't that tempting?

i used to use skoal

i love that shit

my wife and kids made me stop

Can't stand those who smoke. No buzz needed in my life.

I would definitely smoke if I were guaranteed to not get lung cancer, etc. Seems like a good insurance policy. That is not a guarantee that any of us get under normal life! Anyone could get lung cancer tomorrow whether they smoke or not!
