When I was a young
smoker in my teens
& twenties, I would
smoke so much in the
course of a late night,
the next day would
feel as though the air
had been sucked out
of my lungs & replaced
with weird junk. I'd be
coughing most of the
day. That condition was
known as Smoker's Hack.
It was the first time I
heard the word applied.
Doctors used this term
to discuss the respiratory
issues with their patients.
Now the term hack
means something
completely different.
