“In a decade, you will experience anger and embarrassment like you never have before over being a prisoner to an industry… a chemical.”

“Because it will kill you” – doesn’t work on young people…. they have no real concept of mortality.

“Because it will kill you” – barely works on a 30-something of our generation… though COMPLETELY mortality-aware now,… you’re bound to get an answer back like, “So will fast moving buses.”

Physical withdrawal is funny.

If I can deny keeping a blog for a year and a half – I can do anything.
