People should stop smoking
Problem solved
People should also stop voting for dickheads.
It's not that easy
people have hard lives and smoking is stress relief and enjoyment
maybe if people had less stressful lives they wouldn't need a ciggie
I smoked for 20 years, quitting was not easy, but the world wasn't the problem, I was.
Drop down grades while repeatedly asking yourself if you want to be smoking for the rest of your life.
I'm glad your experience of the world is not a problem for you
for many people it is and they have few ways to cope with the stress and limited resources to change the world
a bit of understanding here would not go astray
and grades? you mean ecigs?
I'm talking about cigarettes.
Grade = strength of cigarette
You clearly do not want to quit, be honest about that, stop making excuses, and playing games.
