But if you smoke, you don’t notice other smokers smelling like shit, which is nice.
Guess I should stop showering
Ive seen people quit oxy easier then cigarettes
Boy do I love tobacco.
I don’t smoke any more, but I love the smell of nice tobacco. I was late for work the other day because a crusty old man was smoking a roll up if Dutch tobacco and I couldn’t resist chatting about it.
Dutch tobacco? the whacky kind?
Halfsvere Shag. Finely shredded rolling tobacco like Drum or Ball Shag. I rolled my own smokes before I quit. The aroma, in my opinion, is dreamy, especially compared to American cigarettes.
If Bali Shag released incense sticks, I’d seriously consider purchasing them.
Just one nail of many in my mom’s coffin
It was the primary nail in my mother’s coffin and her mother’s coffin too.
Knowing that addictive tendencies are hereditary, I hope you are OK & continue to be OK.
Joke is on you - I only smoke in elementary schools, so my house is practically tar-free. Now what, science man?
All this woke ass anti cigarette shit! Y’all have obviously never enjoyed a cup of coffee and a smoke on a still summer morn. A post coital puff as your lover plays her fingers through your chest hair like smoke on the water. Good lord I miss cigarettes!
But seriously never smoke, it smells terrible, will ruin your health, and is an all around terrible proposition.
Yeah, it was fun for a while. The good thing is, so many people stopped smoking in the last few years, that smoking stopped to be this special social thing.
I never smoked, but had to hang out with smokers outside the office building at my first job, if I wanted a bit of break and chat with colleagues. I usually brought a glass of water with me.
Happy that this is not the case anymore.
I used to work with a guy that smoked and refused to wear a seat-belt. He carried a gun though, just in case his life was in danger.
So of he loses control of his car and is heading at a tree, he can shoot the tree in self defense.
Ah yes. The Maple Doctrine.
“Failure to Stop” drill.
You’re being ridiculous. Of course the gun is to offset his momentum. Couple shots should do it. \s
When he sees that nicotine feller, he’s going to shoot him right between the eyes.
Poor Nic (a teen):
My work buddy will only eat meals made from single-ingredient foods because of “all the extra shit they put in there”, and smokes a pack a week.
Your work buddy isn’t wrong with that tbh
So no banana then, huh?
This is a bit disingenuous. When listed like that on food it’s because all of those were added in individually to create an ultra processed amalgamation resembling food. Otherwise ingredients would just say bannana.
Processed foods have been clinically shown to be harmful to us. Bannanas seem to be okay
I guess it still leaves store-bought bread out I guess. Or yoghurt. Or milk
But nah, I really do think it’s extreme. Pre-made food isn’t bad for you
Either that or I’m just being European, idk
I think there’s a difference between prepared food and processed food. It can be a blurry line though.
Maybe it is just being European though. American food standards are trash. The stuff allowed in our food is insane
I wouldn’t call bread or yoghurt prepared instead of processed personally though, they’ve been through multiple chemical and biological processes.
Ultra processes foods is something that tends to be more appropriate I think. That’s stuff like chips or fast food. Though even that I consider fine to eat in moderation, and I, personally, do. Though I agree it would be better if I completely cut those out. I just tend to eat a lot of pre-made foods due to disability reasons (frozen pizzas, pastas, and the like)
But yeah, I do know that the US has some very lax food laws unfortunately. So maybe that is a big part of the difference
I thought you guys were talking about processed foods. Like potatoes > bread, that kind of thing.
I process my non-processed foods in hopes that it will kill me quick quicker. :p
I’m so dark and cold inside. You wouldn’t understand.
Huht huht huht
Yeah! Merica!
I dunno, teenagers all smoke and they seem pretty on the ball.
Holy pearl clutching.
When I was a teenager in the 90s, I once dated someone whom I thought otherwise to be a smart and collected girl.
Then I watched her and her friend rummage the side streets for half smoked cigarette butts that people had disposed of out their car windows. The bliss in their eyes when they lit up a half smoked one.
Looking through the eyes of an adult now, it makes me wonder why I continued to try and strike a habit myself over the next 2 years. Fortunate for me, it never seemed like my drug of choice, though I did find others.
Being addicted to anything will make you realize just how fragile “giving a shit” really is.
Bloody hell did that really happen?
You dated someone who picked up half smoked ciggies and smoked them? Was she homeless?
That’s so gross, only ever seen the truly fucker and desperate do that.
Punk shit
What the fuck? Gross. I have never needed a smoke that bad.
this also applies to (some) bombs
I actually enjoy a good cigar every once in a great while. I do not like smelling like smoke so I either go outside or to the “smoke shack” in my basement which has a fan that sucks all the smoke outside.
I don’t think people smoke because they feel like shit doing so, quite the opposite imo
It’s like the inverse of running. Running feels like trash in the moment, but great after
tfw you share balcony with smoking neighbour and you work remotely in the room with open windows…
It would suck if windows didn’t close.
Not everyone has decent ventilation.
Specially this guy
Yeah, I guess things would really suck for the person that only has 1 window too.
Might be that the only one that gets any fresh air into their office is the one closest to the smoker.
I think a box fan is like $20. Have one that blows air OUT of the window that’s closest to the smoker… have a different box fan bringing fresh air IN from a different window.
JFC it’s like everyone enjoys being helpless.
Still increases your electricity bill. Why can’t the smoker just have the common decency to not smoke next to an open window? I know I never do, it’s just rude.
Hey… I 100% agree with you there. The smoker is certainly an ass-hat, but in this life we can only control our own actions; not the actions of others.
This seems to ignore the important facts that smoking is A.) Cool and B.) Sexy.
C) good social activity
It also makes you hot and famous.
