Your compassion is overwhelming!
Do you realize that not only was smoking not generally known to be dangerous, it was promoted for anyone old enough to fit your scenario, when they were young?
The military GAVE cigarettes to the GI's. They were 25 cents a pack and constant cigarette ads everywhere you made it seem that smoking made one sexy and attractive to the opposite sex.
I didn't begin until I was at war and the remote possibility of dying somewhere down the line seemed a pretty good trade off to dying any minute in battle, in exchange for the calming benifits.
Your compassion is fucking overwhelming!
Yep, when I started smoking in my teens there were no warnings, all I was ever told was that it wasn't "ladylike" and not wanting to be a lady that didn't put me off. By the time it was generally known how harmful it is I was already addicted and didn't finally stop until 5 years ago.
Old people that smoke please die already
