Answers:
I'm obviously not a smoker, as my answer will indicate. It's in a nutshell, but true nonetheless--

Biological-- the smoke, nicotene, and other carcinogens (poisons) in cigarettes damage the body, starting with the lungs. The tar itself coats the lungs, acting like tar does-- caking everything with a disgusting layer of filth. Then all that seeps into the bloodstream, sending poison throughout the body, which weakens the immune system, making the body more succeptible to various illnesses, and even increasing the risk of cancer and heart trouble all by itself. Not to mention staining teeth, fingers, and lips and stinking everything up.

Sociological-- Because the "cool people" in movies and on TV often smoke, smokers think they're cool. In point of fact, few people who aren't smokers themselves want to hang around smokers because they smell like ashtrays. Truly concientios parents won't even let smokers hold their children because the nicotene can be absorbed into their children through touch! So they are shunned somewhat by non-smokers and therefore spend more time with smokers, which is a sad existence of bumming cigarettes off each other and talking about one bitter situation after another.

Psychological-- The smoking quickly turns from an accessory to a crutch. The addictive nicotene becomes "comfort 'food'" that consumes the life of the smoker, both literally and figuratively.

In a nutshell, don't smoke-- it makes you a sick person who is welcomed only by other bitter smokers and you'll think you're cool for a while, but soon you'll realize you're not-- and by then it will be too late to quit easily. You'll stink, be stained, and be dying from a stick made of poison that you take yourself!
