Smoke gets in your Eyes...

Imagine if there were a guy who was afraid of fire. And I mean seriously afraid, like a phobia, a real pyrophobic. But here's the kicker, he's addicted to smoking. And he never carries a lighter because he's too afraid to light it. So he always gets someone else to light his cigarettes. But then, while he's smoking he gets all worked up having that live ember so close to his face. And as the cigarette burns down closer and closer to his lips, he gets more and more anxious, until the only thing that will calm him down is another cigarette. So the more he smokes, the more he hates smoking, the more he needs to smoke. Oof, what a viciously ridiculous circle.
