There's only one group of people I hate more than fatties... smokers!

Both are walking disease!

Even worse is seeing some obese cow smoking a cigarette while sucking down a huge Coke... they might be the nicest people in the room but they are the absolute stupidest people on the planet.

The worst thing though, they take years to die, raping our govt medical system, and then in the end regret everything and actually shed a tear for themselves and expect you to do the same.

Awww...

older folks remember reading (years ago) about the studies that shot the 'dangers of second-hand smoke' myth all to heck, but it bears repeating!!

On a related note, here's something you'll probably never hear from your doctor: Some smokers are protected from getting hypersensitivity pneumonitis. How do I know? I quit smoking THEN developed all the symptoms of this horrible condition, had test after test after test--all to no avail--so I did my own research. Do I have this condition? Maybe. There's over 300 possible antagonists, and they only test for the most common ones. I guess I'm just supposed to spend the rest of my life suffering--at least according to "modern medicine". I won't quietly suffer, though. I will continue to do my own research, try to ascertain what's wrong, then utilize natural remedies to attempt to fix the problem (I do not advise anyone else to practice this approach. It CAN BE dangerous. I went to nursing school so I at least have an idea of what I can and cannot safely attempt).

Anyway, can you believe it? It appears that some people should smoke!!
