That's the best analogy EVER. Can I use it?

Of course you can.
Just make sure to footnote properly or the instructor will have to dock you points. (:

That smoker has come up to me a few times... I just wish I had the gumption to say what a friend of mine did to a guy at Disneyland...

"Excuse me, but smoking is bad for you and.."
"Are you calling me an idiot?"
"i..uhm...no...."
"Then why do you come up here touting information that everyone on this planet knows already as if I have never heard it before?"
"uhm... I uh... just thought..."
"No, you didn't. You thought you would be a self-righteous pompous-ass and come up here and try and prove how much better you are than me because I smoke and you don't. Well I hate to tell you Mister, but I know smoking is bad for me and I chose to do it anyway, It's part of living in a free country, I can do what I enjoy doing. Now if you don't mind, your Communist ass is blocking my ashtray."

Oh to be young again.

You might have difficulty getting your ex-smoker to follow your script. I'd suggest something shorter & pithier:

"You know, smoking is bad for your health."
[No change of expression]"Thank you. You have changed my life."
[blows smoke in face.]
"Really. Thanks. Did you know that masturbation causes carpal tunnel?"

I thought it was "Did you know that every time you masturbate God kills a kitten."
