Terrible things: The list of bad things smoking can do to you cannot be summarized in 400 characters. Let's start with cancer lung cancer is one of the leading causes of cancer death. Head and neck cancer: talk to a person who experience this horrible condition. It's a difficult existence. I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy. If you or someone else is thinking about quitting, make it a top priority.
