13 Benefits of smoking (funny but true)

01. Smoking lowers risk of knee-replacement surgery
While smokers might go broke buying a pack of cigarettes, they can at least save money by avoiding knee-replacement surgery. Surprising results from a new study have revealed that men who smoke had less risk of undergoing total joint replacement surgery than those who never smoked.
02. Smoking lowers risk of Parkinson's disease
Numerous studies have identified the uncanny inverse relationship between smoking and Parkinson's disease. Long-term smokers are somehow protected against Parkinson's, and it's not because smokers die of other things earlier.
03. Smoking lowers risk of obesity
Smoking — and, in particular, the nicotine in tobacco smoke — is an appetite suppressant. This has been known for centuries, dating back to indigenous cultures in America in the pre-Columbus era. Tobacco companies caught on by the 1920s and began targeting women with the lure that smoking would make them thinner.
04. Smoking lowers risk of death after some heart attacks
Compared with non-smokers, smokers who have had heart attacks seem to have lower mortality rates and more favorable responses to two kinds of therapy to remove plaque from their arteries: fibrinolytic therapy, which is basically medication; and angioplasty, which removes the plaque by inserting balloons or stents into the arteries.
05. Enjoy Smoke Break Culture
As a smoker, you'll receive unlimited participation in 7-10 minutes of organized puffing and talking with other smokers. These are most often called "smoke breaks".
06. You always have something to do with your hands.
07. To avoid headaches later in the day, always have a cigarette first thing in the morning.
08. Occasional house fires will help keep firemen employed.
09. Always smoke when you are pregnant. Your smoking helps the unborn baby prepare for the air pollution in the real world.
10. You will have a good reason to paint the ceilings every three years
11. You will know when it's time to throw out your old lounge suite by the number of burn marks.
12. Your wife looks sexier after drinking a twelve pack and smoking cigarettes. The downside is, you can't get it up.
13. Smoking only takes one hand while driving. Texting takes two.
