-- Posted by dramaqueenxoxo at 12:38 pm on Dec. 2, 2008 But the narrator said something like "At parties I gravitate towards the smoker because, in this day and age, they aren't smoking to be cool or fit in, they smoke because they aren't afraid of death"... or something to that extent. Do you agree with this opinion? For me, it seems that everyone worth knowing at the moment smoke and it isn't because it makes them look 'cool' (tbh, the 'cooler' you look, the more vapid you are), I actually don't know why but the people that I like (which is .1% of the population) smoke (as do I) can anyone think of a reason why this is? -- Posted by atarisrocks at 12:39 pm on Dec. 2, 2008 no i think most people smoke coz they tried it through reasons like friends family image or curiosity and got hooked -- Posted by SpM at 12:40 pm on Dec. 2, 2008 What a moronic generalisation. -- Posted by ironicdreams at 12:40 pm on Dec. 2, 2008 I don't know about most people. But I smoke because I'm addicted and like smoking. -- Posted by dramaqueenxoxo at 12:41 pm on Dec. 2, 2008 Quote: from SpM at 8:40 pm on Dec. 2, 2008 What a moronic generalisation.

So no, I do not agree with that opinion . -- Posted by SpM at 12:43 pm on Dec. 2, 2008 Quote: from dramaqueenxoxo at 8:41 pm on Dec. 2, 2008 My opinion or the book? The narrator made a generalisation; all you stated was an observation. -- Posted by dramaqueenxoxo at 12:43 pm on Dec. 2, 2008 Quote: from Zetsuai at 8:41 pm on Dec. 2, 2008 Throwing your life away does not make you brave, it makes you stupid. I didn't mention bravery... -- Posted by gnr90 at 12:44 pm on Dec. 2, 2008 I smoke because nicotine is a great stress reliever...I smoke more in private than in public, so it isn't image
