Ok yeah, thats the typical shit excuse a smoker has to say, you seem to not understand. Driving is a need that the world needs in order to function at all. Smoking does the exact opposite, it does no good what so ever
Believe it or not, I don't smoke. Once in a blue moon I'll have a cigar, the ones that go for $20-$40 a piece, hand rolled and aged for a couple years. Cigar smoking for me is like wine tasting for the rest of the world. 80% of people don't need to drive including me, but I realize that I'd rather drive to where I want to be quickly (or on a pleasure cruise) than spend an extra 10 minutes biking or walking. People got along just fine without driving, there are trains and boats and horses and buggies. Not to mention there is ample public transit. To say everybody NEEDS to drive is delusional, in a small town you can walk and bike, in a large city you can use public transit. To get to other cities you have planes, buses, trains.
The world got along fine without cars and trucks for a very long time.
ok.....cool...your point? Why are you even comparing smoking and driving? You should compare smoking vs non smoking, because thats really the only thing you can compare.
You're saying smoking is unnecessary and unhealthy, I'm merely applying your standard to something else, like driving. Don't blame me if you get blinded by your own hypocrisy.
