This is a remix of footage from one of my favorite installments of the "Smoking is BAD!" series by the always *Fetching* Twyla79. I put it together as another little hommage to The Divine Ms. T, as well as out of a desire to assist her in her efforts to spread the word about just how BAD smoking is.
But what if it feels GOOD to know that you're being BAD? Hmmm...

Do you crave more of my warped libidinous sense of humor? Would you like to know my thoughts on the horrors of corporate art? Would you like to know my thoughts on just why smoking is so totally Dead Sexy?
Would you?

I *think* that the content of this falls within the bounds of a "PG-13" rating... ;)

With sincerest appreciation to Twyla for her gracious consent to allow me to post this remix of her amazing work!
This is intended as a heartfelt homage to someone who has come to haunt me in a place as unlikely as this tenuous and ephemeral low resolution flv alternative universe.
All of the video is from "Smoking is BAD! 6" by Twyla79. The soundtrack is composed and performed by Ms. P.J. Harvey. The words, design, and edit are my little contribution.
I am attempting to bypass your conscious mind to get the important information deep into your psyche. ;)
If you don't smoke and don't want to, don't watch this.
If you smoke and you're trying to quit, don't watch this.
If you are prone to seizures, or have a weak heart, don't watch this.
But if you're like me, and you like to baste yourself with Temptation...then by all means, please do watch this.
The awakening will commence after you press "play" and watch your screen very, very closely...LOL...
Twyla, you are a very special and singular flavor of *Dark Magic*.
Wow.
xoxo

Danger is Sexy. Risk is Exciting. Being Bad feels Good.
No one is born with a craving
Danger is Sexy. Risk is Exciting. Being Bad feels Good.
No one is born with a craving to inhale cigarette smoke, and what is more, until shortly before the decision is made to try smoking, virtually everyone is repulsed by cigarette smoke. Every new smoker who aspires to become a "real" smoker has to overcome her innate self-preservation instincts. She has to force her respiratory tract to accept being repeatedly saturated with a toxic, irritating cloud of poisons. She has to keep forcing cigarette smoke deeper and deeper into her lungs until she eventually strangles her cough reflex. She has to coerce her body into functioning as normally as possible with nicotine and carbon monoxide constantly flooding her bloodstream.
Cigarette smoking is a behavior replete with social symbolism, because we all - smokers and nonsmokers alike - recognize on some fundamental level that in order to become a smoker, you have to be willing to intentionally transform your body into doing something that nature didn't intend for it to do. To smoke publicly is to state to the world that you have completed a particular rite of passage and physical transformation that only certain others have, and to declare that you have made a decision to indulge your psychological needs to the detriment of your physical needs.
Cigarette advertising has certainly created a rich and fascinating Mythology of Smoking over the years, and social modeling and the desire to belong to a particular group also obviously play substantial roles in the attractiveness of smoking for many.
But underlying all other motivations is the persistent awareness that to smoke is to do something that is willfully Dangerous and Risky. For some smokers, this awareness may be buried by layers of denial and rationalization and become purely subconscious. But for many smokers, this persistent awareness not only remains important to their attraction to smoking, it is essential to the complex and psychologically dark romance that makes cigarette smoking absolutely unique among all of the sensual pleasures that a human being can experience.
