I'll never understand why people are willing to continue smoking knowing what they're going to go through, and what they're going to put their loved ones through.
But drinking and destroying your liver or being a dysfunctional alcoholic who messes up their children's lives is okay?
Tiki is not a virtue. It is a vice, plain and simple.
There is nothing honorable or glorious about choosing one obsession for another unless you consider that at least with smoking you don't loose your job, family, or leave your children emotionally unequipped to deal with life. Might you die early. Yes. Is it good not to smoke. Yes. But thinking that not smoking is better than not smoking and yet still drinking more than 3 oz of alcohol a day or drinking to excess is an illusion.
Both kill, both destroy, and ultimately families are the ones that pay the price.
The Tiki Ti is a temple dedicated to the embracing of vice. All who enter it understand the consequences.
