Answer 2

Read VERY carefully ...
SMOKING WILL HELP YOU MAKE FRIENDS: Thanks to the banishment from the world of non-smokers, smokers must now congregate in very small areas, in the cold/heat, rain/snow/150mph winds... This sort of adversity breeds a certain amount of cameraderie between them. Stories are exchanged, enriching lives. News is exchanged, enriching knowledge. Sometimes numbers are exchanged, enriching sex lives or friendships. No matter how different you are, smokers all have something in common. They are discriminated against, and thusly quickly band together. You will always have a ready group of friends, just outside the fire-escape.


SMOKING WILL BUILD YOUR TOLERANCE TO TOXINS: Ever see a non-smoker in a bar that allows smoking? They're eyes are bloodshot, they cough, they sneeze, they complain about the smoke and the smell. Rarely will you ever make such a fool of yourself if you smoke. By being a proud smoker, you can survive these mildly adverse conditions, or you can choose to avoid them altogether. The poor non-smoker, however, apparently has no choice but to go to smoking establishments and complain, rather than go somewhere else and leave the smokers alone. This is because there is a certain toxin called Whineyness that has permeated America. It infects everyone at some point, but generally the more niccotine you take in, the less room there is for the toxin Whineyness to take hold. Non-smokers, however, do not have the neccesary chemicals to protect them from the Whineyness Toxin, and as such become infected with it far more frequently.


SMOKING WILL REDUCE STRESS AND ANXIETY: Rarely will you see a smoker lose their temper unless they've been drinking. However, the calming effects of a constant niccotine supply in the bloodstream reduce the amount of stress and anxiety that can cause serious heart conditions and ulcers. Why risk a heart attack or an ulcer? Smoke today!


SMOKING HELPS SUPPORT THE ECONOMY: It's no secret that the recent recession is due to less and less people smoking. The less people that smoke, the less the demand for cigarettes. The less demand for cigarettes, the less demand there are for convenience stores and trucks to deliver them. The less demand there are for tobacco farmers, for fuel stations to fuel the trucks that transport it to the manufacturer... It's trickle-down economics that eventually come full circle and bite you on the ***. Is it really worth putting all those people out of work?


YOU ALWAYS HAVE AN EXCUSE TO LEAVE: Bored to tears at the Family Reunion? Your kids 7th grade Christmas play putting you to sleep? Thanksgiving Dinner at Grandma's has you wishing to be anywhere else?... No worries! If you're a smoker you can always step outside and have a cigarette! Or even better, you can claim you're out and have to buy more, then leave and smoke in peace. Non-Smokers do not have such a luxury. They must remain and suffer, or be brutally honest and hurt the feelings of their family and children. So if you want to see the light in a child's eyes, smoke today!


SMOKING EXCERCISES YOUR LUNGS AND ARMS, BUILDS MANUAL DEXTERITY: Breathing smoke is no easy task and isn't for wimps. It takes good strong lungs to smoke well. But with just one pack a day you can go from being a weak-lunged sissy to having lungs like SuperMan! Your arms are continuously worked out by the up and down movement. Impress your friends with your new biceps from smoking! Lastly, lighting a cigarette requires a certain amount of skill and finesse if you don't want to look a fool. But along with smoking comes certain cool tricks, like snapping open a Zippo and having it lit, with one hand, in one quick motion. Non-smokers, like non-jugglers, will never know this joy.
