This is a question Where Did It All Go Wrong?

Woocfot asks: Tell us all about that turning point in your life when it started going downhill. Yeah, that drunken conversation with my dad when he suggested I become a civil servant. Dammit, I could have been an astronaut

Tobacco smoke:
only carcinogenic in Europe!

Are you an agent of the US travel board?

Sorry, rather
Some Europeans, a few centuries back, made a lot of money from tobacco. They saw that this was good and resolved to keep the punters addicted by nefarious methods.

I don't know how far removed from the truth it is, or whether there's any basis in truth at all
but I found the 'smoking churches' bit in Cloud Atlas (the book, no idea if it's in the film) quite worrying.

I'd like to think that's true,
but only because it somehow excuses my own stupidity in starting.

But I have to put my hand up to that one. I'm the idiot who started, and the idiot who hasn't got the willpower to stop.

Big tobacco might be all sorts of bad things, but they didn't hold me down and force me to start smoking.
