I Have Too Many Students Who Smoke Tobacco

And coming home I walk past yet another art school where students are smoking like stacks on the sidewalks as well, and in the sight of hundred of high school kids next door. I hate it! Every summer I am shocked to find bright Berkeley students fondly or convulsively fingering their packs in the breaks. And the "anti-smoking" ads I occasionally see on television seem like promotional flirtations as much as anything else. Smoking is stupid and gross in every way. It is singularly nasty, it is a surreal waste of your money, it is completely unpleasant and alienating to be around, it is grotesquely unhealthy. Stop doing it. Don't start.

You'll never want to smoke cigarettes again. pic.twitter.com/xmlFtGCj3K
