Previa_fun posted:Smoking owns. I miss smoking. Samesies. Though I grew up in a household where adults smoked inside. I heard complaints about the smell of cigarettes in clothes and poo poo and honestly never understood it because I had already been around it. Only after I quit did I get the smell of cigarettes on clothes and yes it’s loving nasty. I do still like the smell of it in the air. Also I feel bad because I didn’t get the greece toddler joke...

Other vices are actually fun though. Being drunk is fun. Gambling is exciting. Doing drugs is entertaining. Gluttony means you get to taste delicious food constantly. Smoking is just regular living, but worse, and you smell bad and have less money and can't climb a flight of stairs and cough disgusting poo poo up constantly.

Nicotine is a pleasurable and addictive stimulant. It’s a drug to do. It feels good to do the drug; to smoke a cigarette. I’m not really sure how any functioning adult would be confused by this.

nicotine from cigarettes helps you stay conscious when you're drunk so you can keep drinking longer, also if you pass out with a lit cigarette in your hand you may burn yourself and wake up so you can drink more i mean have you met a smoker under 40 who doesn't have 'raging alcoholic' somewhere in their resume?

i used to pick trash as my job and smokers sucked. they get everywhere and are a pain to pick up. plus about once a week some nob in a suit would flick a butt at me or on the floor in front of me while making eye contact. public drinkers very good, would mostly dispose of their cans properly and would often ask me where they should put their trash. friendly. 5 stars.

The frat houses on my walk to work have piles of trash in the yard after every party. They won't even put out some plastic trash cans to throw their cans in, they just drop them on the ground for their landscapers to clean up. It's obscene, and I hate them.sexpig by night posted:the stereotype is pitbulls left alone with toddlers will hurt the toddler, and germany has major authority when the EU dictates things like national bailout plans for countries like greece Halloween Jack fucked around with this message at 02:51 on Jun 5, 2019 |

Halloween Jack posted:Of course they're actually bailing out Greece's creditors, many of whom are German, so it's a cool cup-and-ball trick where they get to rob their taxpayers blind and blame Greece instead of capitalism. Could you elaborate on this or point to some writing about it? I had no idea.

german banks own greek debt, not greece itself. any bailout would go to the creditors, just like instead of paying people's mortgages here in the states in 2008 they just wrote a trillion-dollar check to wells fargo US minority homeowners and greece also had the opportunity to be blamed as causes because of a propensity to be lazy and overspend

the upshots to vaping are that your clothes don't smell like they've been fumigated and you avoid the dreaded smoker's cough that cough is the absolute worst poo poo. everything else about vaping is lame as poo poo though

Victory Position posted:the upshots to vaping are that your clothes don't smell like they've been fumigated and you avoid the dreaded smoker's cough It delivers the fix. So that’s a plus too. It’s not as satisfying as cigarettes, but it will get the job done, and you can use it inside without any stank so you don’t have to go outside for your habit during a blizzard.

regular cig smoke doesn't bother me too much unless it's being blown directly into my face, but there's something about that massive cloud that comes off a vape pen that's incredibly off-putting (it also doesnt help that vapers are 100% likely to look like dorks)

Why is this confusing to Goons? Both of my parents will die early from the addiction, I can't smell them because I'm anosmic, and I have better stimulants on prescription... but smoking looks cool as hell, even for dorks

Now, one could argue that no cool person could possibly be having a good day with the state of things, but that’s for another topic. This is easily my lamest opinion but I stand by it.

Coolest smoking guy: Also I like to smoke, I like the smell and I like the feeling of drawing it into my lungs despite all my family being non-smokers and strongly disapproving of it. It's still not worth it but my point is that there's an appeal to it beyond it looking cool.
