    Of course. No way they are going to poison themselves without poisoning everyone else around them alongside.

      Was the ninja there before, during or after the sex? What exactly was his participation? Did he have ninja credentials?

    I don’t think there’s a smoker alive who doesn’t know it’s bad for them and a lot of them would like to quit. It’s a sad thing.

      I wish this was true. But I live in a country full of people who are more afraid of vaccines than horse roundworm drugs.

      There’s still a rump base of Americans convinced climate change, seat belts, dinosaur bones, and warnings on cigarette boxes are an evil trick by the communists in government.

        Unfortunately the plan isn’t working. That rump of Americans are dying to slowly. /jk-ish

      There’s rarely a mutation that vastly increases healing/cleaning of lung tissue. They get quite old, despite smoking. What do i know, maybe somwhere around 1/100? Not the one-in-a-billion kind of rare.

      Edit: guess it was this?

    The “you’ll feel worse and worse” part is pretty blatantly ignoring the endorphin rush that exists here. Like yes you may feel worse on the level, but it’s accentuated with moments of feeling pretty damn great, which seems disingenuous to ignore.

    I’m not even a smoker, and I was happy as hell when I parents quit smoking, but let’s not pretend the choice is as simple as “poison or no poison” without any tangible upsides.

    Does it come with nicotine? Cuz that’s kinda why I came in here…at least nicotine gives me a bit of a high while it slowly kills me. Rethink your new product.

    Do the ninja also litter and make my breath smell like shit? Because that sounds really good.

      not your breath, but your entire existence. i can smell a smoker who just walks nearby. some from quite a distance. they’re disgusting.

    Just never go into a convenience store. Aside from the sparse selection of fruit everything else there is bad for you. Tobacco, energy drinks, shitty snack food, lotto tickets. The only convenience is an early release from your mortal coil.
