The Return To Innocence

Butcher aka "My name is Andrew" and I were talking about the restrictions that they have on smoking and it's smokers. We agree that people start smoking for a variety of reasons.

Especially when they're young and impressionable, they might start because their friends think it's cool to smoke. However, Butcher aka "My name is Andrew" refuses to acknowledge that this might be a possibility. He refuses to admit that he was pulled into this web of tar and nicotine because he thought at first that it was cool to smoke. Well then, Butcher aka "My name is Andrew", what other reasons would there be?

I still maintain that smokers are all cool. Standing outside in the hot sun, perspiration clamouring down the side of your legs and arm pits, you strike the smoker pose, and enjoy the cigarette. How cool is that!!!!!!!


And we also agreed on one thing. If smoking is really that bad for your health, and I do believe it is, the government should just stop with their bullshit "let's raise the prices so the kids can't afford it" tactics. Just ban the friggin thing. It'll make life easier for everyone, even the kids, who struggle with the how cool smoking is. They've got to come to terms with it. It IS cool, but it makes you breathless, unfit, and it stains your fingers and teeth. Just one of the many decisions to be made in everyday life.

Till next time, goodbye world.
