Cigarette ヽ(#`Д´)凸

ITT: No one disputes the assertion that all people who smoke weed are stupid. Despite the fact that over 40% of people have smoked weed by the time they graduate high school.

Not everyone who smokes weed wanders around in tie-dye muttering about the true nature of the universe, man.

But please, back to your explanations about how cigarettes should be illegal because they smell bad, smart guy. Sure is good you don't smoke weed, else you'd be a catatonic retard, presumably. Given your unhindered level of intelligence being in the fucking toilet as is.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

I'm not entirely sure what your point is, so I'll contest the one part of your post that seems to be relevant: You seem to be operating under the impression that I think smoking should be banned because it smells bad.

Yes, smoking and smokers tend to smell bad (although someone brought up a good point when they mentioned that that will depend in part on the brand of cigarette), and second-hand smoke should never be something that we have to suffer through in public areas. But I'm mainly against it because of the horrible health repercussions, both on the user and on anyone who is around them often. Like children of parents who smoke, for instance. I'm against smoking in all forms because it is a terrible addiction that causes early death and long-term health issues.

If it was something that only affected the people smoking, I wouldn't care. If they don't value their own health, then why should I value it, after all? But the second-hand smoke effects everyone around them. The money they spend on cigs is money that won't be spent on improving their lives or the lives of their family and children. Sure, some of it will go towards the government and maybe, maybe make it back to the family in some shape or form, but that's hardly a comfort to those whose minimum-wage parents are throwing away their limited funds on the cigs. And then there is the simple fact that even people who don't value their own health are generally loved and valued by someone else, usually family.

My children will likely not know their grand parents well, because they'll die an early death because of their addiction. And if they don't, well... I won't let them spend much time with them anyways, because I can't allow them to look up to a smoker as a role model or authority if I can at all help it. And that is a damn shame.

My god, you're a joke.

You want to ban something because its not good for them? You want to take away personal choice for someone's own good? Well we're at it, let's ban any form of literature that might insight someone to actions against the good of the majority. I mean, sure it might be bad for them to read it, but other people might overhear someone talking about it, thus harming other people as well!

Your Crash impression is adorable, by the way. Paragraphs on paragraphs saying nothing. Unfortunately for you, most of us can read and are able to understand what you're actually saying: If anything could possibly maybe hurt the people around us, we shouldn't do it. (You should do your homework, by the way, the research on second hand smoke damage is largely based on one study, which has been shown to overstate the facts by a very large margin. Reading, it's always better than rhetoric.)

So I guess no one should ever get behind the wheel of a car, because there's a chance that someone might get hurt when they do. No one should dress in a way that makes other people uneasy. Everyone should do only what makes everyone around them comfortable at all times, and we can all live in a nice bubble and be miserably uninteresting. Just like you.

You may think I'm harsh, but I think you're a bloody idiot. And I'll take a smoker over a halfwit any day.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

We already tossed Elixir.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

No we're not.

If it's fat guys by mass, it has to be Mo0. He's like a fishing trawler with legs.

If it's fat guys we hate, it has to be Dope. Because really. No one likes him.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

Do you ever have a solution that doesn't involve "hey let's do it like the Japanese"? I'm just curious. Because you're a weeaboo and all.

And also, if you think Japan is smoke free, you should fucking go there. Japan that you imagine isn't the real Japan. Come to terms and move on. Go love something else that will disappoint you in the end. Like Sweden. Or maybe Indie rock.

I was speaking idiomatically.

A skirt who is white and got married in full kimono and Japanese face make-up.

Yeah.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?
