Smoking is almost by definition insane. Harmful and you know it, but yet you keep doing it.

Something you said struck me, that they throw their butts on the ground its so disconnected with social norms, and it is not a necessity, so why do they do it? It makes me think of something else I heard recently, cant remember where...

The idea was why people get grumpy when they dont eat, and they say things like "Im hangry dont bother me". But your hunger doesnt excuse your rudeness. You are not entitled to be rude just because your hungry, or cold, or addicted to smokes.

Its like they are saying "Im in a crap place in my life, therefore you be should too".
