a thought about smokers

she (while obviously uncomfortable with somebody smoking around her): uh! why do people smoke?

me (on phone with her): 'coz people think they look cool when they smoke

she: but that was some middle-aged uncle ji!

me: people start smoking when they are young, by the time they realize its actually not that cool, they can't let go of it!

she: hmmmm

me thinking (wow! one of those rare days when she agrees easily!) :D
