Anyone can smoke. Not everyone can choose not to and resist. Hence, we have smokers. In High School, yeah you're respected by your crew or stoners or whatever, but in reality, it's just soft. Because anyone can do it. Doesn't prove anything. People get cake (money) to get baked (high) to..

Well, the cool image was something of a historical fossil really. Nowadays it's only "cool" to specific groups; the counter-effects of the anti-smoking propaganda can actually be seen in that they succeed in making smoking "NOT cool" to many, many people, which push the force of peer pressure the other way around in many cases.
Regardless, if you look at the historical advertisements for smoking, it's so utterly beating-over-my-head obvious that the message is: smoking is
cool.
