In my younger, smoking years, when the anti-smoking lobby grew stronger and managed to land more and more restrictions on smoking, to the degree that you almost felt like a leper...
I remember telling my anti-smoking, chocolate-eating friends “you know one day they will come for you too, right?”
That sure didn’t take long. Let’s see how they feel about it this time around.
- ricardobeat 7y agoDid you not eat chocolate? Did all of your anti-smoking friends had the urge to eat chocolate during breaks or social events? That’s a very odd characterization. Smoking is banned for under 18 already, and affects others around you, while chocolate does not (an I really saying this?). As seen in the article, sugar is a bigger issue for the 4-18 age range. I’m sure your friends feel absolutely fine.
- josteink 7y ago> Did you not eat chocolate? No. I don’t eat chocolate, don’t drink soda and don’t have sugar in my coffee. You may find that crazy, but what’s really crazy is having no vices at all. Trying to ban them all is sure to make us all unhappy.
