Why do we, as intelligent animals, smoke cigarrettes when we know that it is REALLY bad for us?
Answers:
As intelligent animals; We do not like to be straight. We are afraid to die,yet constantly seek and find anything to deliver us from boredom. We are curious to the point of annihilation. We crave gratification without effort on a constant basis. We are selfish, uncaring and addictive by nature.We think we are superior to the other life on the planet, and that's just the good side of us.
We are also; Abusive , violent in thought, and syntax and deed.
In short we are just animals. Intelligent, clever, but pretty stupid. Thank god that I've finished my rampage; I need a smoke.
Because we believe that bad stuff, such as lung cancer, only happens to other people. Also once started, cigarettes are VERY addictive!!
good question but who knows the answer
for the same reason we eat too much ice cream and watch too much TV. We find some sense of pleasure from these activities.
If we were animals we would not be smoking. But as intelligent
people we do it following the habits of others we admire, and
once you are hooked it is difficult to stop - the tobacco trade
takes care of keeping their customers happy.
Because we are not as smart as animals with four legs.
*becuase there is little regulation on the industry (the warnings dont help)
*because they get you addicted to it
*because (apparently) its cool to hide behind class and smoke them
*because after smoking them in school, you cant stop
*because your encouraged to, so people can make money off getting you to quit
*because we keep finding new ways to kill ourselves
*because we are not that intelligent
a cigarette is a slow burning fuse. on one end is a light. on the other, a destructive fool
why do we do anything we use as a crutch? It's just another one.
Why do we blame eve for the apple. ? It this where it all started?
Why does anyone do anything self-destructive? Answer that, you'll be rich.
Because BAD stands for: BALL'S, ATTITUDE AND DIRECTION!!
I don't know. I could never understand why people thought that Bob Newhart sketch (Who? Bob Newhart? Who?) was funny when he only spoke the truth.
because we were brainwashed into thinking it was cool to smoke,it made u all grown up.aye rite..
Mostly peer pressure I guess. My friends offered me a cigarette on a trip to France. I had just seen one of those lung tar type ads around and I though "no way." But-almost everyone I know who has a parent that smokes ends up smoking themselves at on e point or another. It is very tough to give up, like a lot of stuff that people enjoy. You might be lucky and smoke and yet live forever. Nah, you're doing that already!
because some people always have to be doing something with their hands, and addiction
We do it because the nicotine get to our brain and makes us so addictive that we still take the cigarettes even though we no they kill us.
Because humans are very sociable animals and will often go to great lengths to be accepted as part of a group.
Ask smokers how they got started. I imagine that often they will have been encouraged by friends or have started along with their friends. To be accepted as part of the group.
The reason people continue to smoke is quite simply because it is addictive. The body has come to rely on it and often it becomes a strong habit too.
