"... Why is this on HN? ..."

Good question.

Think of it as a kind of message from the future from the non-nerds ~ http://paulgraham.com/nerds.html A message from all the cool kids at school who smoked, drank and who now hit a certain age realise it wasn't such a smart idea after all, but didn't want to stand out amongst their peers. The kids that are dead or in wheel chairs probably already know this.

That's the message smokers and drinkers of my youth seem to tell me.




Bummer ... I'm a nerd that smokes ... guess I'll die soon without being cool.

The good thing, the faster you give up, the more chance you have to recover.
