Smoking emote.

[Reinha]

If you think smoking and self mutilation/ suicidal actions are the same i don't have anything to argue with you about. There's just something wrong with you. You're taking your anti-smoking stance a tad far. Smoking any sort of substance is not akin to self mutilation or suicide. You really need to not make comparisons to things you clearly know nothing about/ haven't seen someone go through.

So you still can't offer any reasons why I'm wrong. Alright! I equated smoking to self-harm because it meets the definition. Merriam-Webster:

Definition of self-harm
: the act of purposely hurting oneself (as by cutting or burning the skin) as an emotional coping mechanism

Reasons people smoke:

Feeling down or sad
Having trouble sleeping
Feeling irritable‚ on edge‚ grouchy
Having trouble thinking clearly and concentrating
Feeling restless and jumpy
Slower heart rate
Feeling more hungry or gaining weight

You could argue that self-cutting is a more severe form of self-harm and often accompanied by more serious mental problems than smoking. On the other hand, smoking causes irreversible damage to internal organs, can physically hurt people around you, is more difficult to stop and shortens the life span. Both are bad in their own right and share the element of being destructive habits, something our characters are not yet able to express with emotes. And why should we be able to do that? Smoking is a more culturally acceptable form of self-harm, but this is actually a point against including it in the game and other forms of entertainment.
