Why do people smoke cigarettes or vape

Because most smokers or vapers start when they're teenagers, before their brains are fully developed, and, the thought of any consequences are easily dismissed because they seem so far down the road.

The majority of adults are overweight or obese, medicated, and getting fatter and unhealthier every day. Most of them were at a manageable weight, at least until early adulthood, and gained weight (and continue to gain weight) after their brains know better. And fatties dwarf smokers/vapers in pure numbers.

Indeed.

Yep, but overeating and sloth are at least as bad, and, as they're far more prevalent, I'd argue that they're worse. You're not paying out the arse for insurance because of vapers or even smokers. You're paying for grown arse fatties that know better.

And, statistically, you're probably one of them.
