The solution to many problems

Holy shit lmao your dad was trying to be the CEO of smoking
This is fucking funny.

If I quit, I might live longer. Life is hell.
Don't know what’s going through in your life but have this, if you want to:
-
I live alone and actively wish I could die. I'm not hurting anyone but myself.
I am glad that it's not cool with the younger generations, and that the whole vaping fad kinda died back.
Still though, the amount of self righteousness and lack of empathy from some non smokers really makes me glad that I will never have to hang out with those types of people.
Addiction is a hell of a thing, and when the alternative is worse than quitting, it's extremely difficult to quit.

Yeah that shit annoys the fuck out of me. Society really needs to change the way we treat people who smoke.
Many people wouldn't mind other people smoking, as long as it doesn't impact non-smokers. But the thing is, smokers aren't really all that considerate about non-smokers. I attended a couple festivals over the past week. It's really annoying when you stand in packed crowd as a non-smoker and someone starts smoking. Sure, we are outside, but it literally makes breathing harder, especially for asthma patients.
I don't really see a way in which smokers and non-smokers can coexists without the smoker impacting the non-smoker. Even if you only smoke outside of the restaurant/bar, it will still be annoying and unhealthy to people entering the restaurant or bar.
I'm very curious with how things will develop in France, where they banned smoking in area's where children are present, which is virtually everywhere.

I’ve read last week that tobacco is radium rich and decomposes to polonium and radon - cigarettes are radioactive and it contributes to its nasty effects on the lungs
So, smoking could make me a superhero?

I can't hear you over my 100% lung capacity. I am breathing so good right now. You wouldn't even believe.
If your lungs are making that much noise you might have a medical condition that you should go get checked out, lungs aren't supposed to be that noisy.

Don’t forget that smokers also get to ruin other people’s meals at restaurants. Not their own meals mind you - just the meals of others.

Don't know what’s going through in your life but have this, if you want to:
I appreciate it. 🫂

There are a lot of people on this website who believe in the right to die and would feel bad, seeing you suffering like this. They'd want to talk about your right to die with you. But they could get in trouble for that, because the pro-life people see that as encouraging suicide. You're putting the pro-choice people in the difficult position of choosing whether to try to help you, or look after themselves.
Yeah and it's clearly the way women choose to dress that excuses men's predatory behavior /s

Your example is pretty bad because it undermines their point. Womens choice of clothing doesnt excuse predators, but it still puts many in a tough situation by tempting them (not voluntarily but for them its a temptation). Which is in no way saying the women are at fault but unwanted outcomes can be avoided by their chioce. So you could live your life making sure others arent influenced in a negative way by your behavior or you could go to the limits of yoir freedom disregarding any consequences for others as long as youre on the legal side. The answer should be somewhere in the middle of the two extremes, but who can say where exactly. (I mean many do pretend they know, but its obviously subjective)

Youre seriously trying to guilt trip non-smokers here? Sure, addiction is horrible and some people are really struggling, but the majority of smokers I know dont give a shit that theyre actively killing others by blowing smoke into their faces on the street. Its ignorant and toxic behavior which is tolerated because of decades of brainwashing by the industry.
I have very little empathy for people who choose hurting others for their own convenience. Maybe start with empathy for poor people that struggle surviving because they are being exploited, or people that are systemically suppressed, then move on to empathy for smokers and other criminals.
I hope you get better, but your struggles dont excuse the millions of smokers actively harming their environments without a care in the world.

Who cares at this point no one has free health care so no longer a burden in the golden age of bare foot and pregnant. Smoke cigs. They are awsome.

Yes, like Marlboro Man!

Absofuckinglutely not. Predatory behavior is inexcusable full stop.

What an insensitive and utterly vile post. If you understood anything about addiction, which I'll remind you is a health disorder and not a personal choice, you would be ashamed of yourself. Some of us and our families are really struggling with huge impacts to physical and mental health, our entire lives, from addictions like this. Hope posting this made you feel better about yourself tho

I'm not trying to guilt trip anyone. The self righteous superior people clearly dgaf what I think and the feeling is mutual.
.... killing others by blowing smoke into their faces on the street.
Ah yes, the age old tradition of going up to a non smoker and blowing smoke directly in their faces. Fun times.
I've been a smoker for a very long time and I've never seen that happen, unless you count shotgunning cannabis, and that was always consensual.
Let's get real for just a second. What you actually mean is occasionally you catch a whiff of cigarette smoke while outside. I'm sure you don't go stand next to smoker, and I'm positive that they don't "blow smoke into your face".
Even in my backwards ass state, you can't smoke indoors in public places, so it must be outside.
If you are so concerned about your health that you think simply smelling cigarette smoke and walking away will kill you, I sure hope you never leave the house, attend a BBQ, or go camping, because you will likely be exposed to other smells just as likely to kill you as that.
I have very little empathy for people...
That much is clear
Maybe start with empathy for poor people that struggle surviving because they are being exploited, or people who are systematically suppressed
Who says I don't? Who says I don't fall into those categories myself? Having empathy for one group of people does not preclude you from having empathy for others. I've never shot heroin or smoked crack, but I feel bad for people struggling with those addictions.
I don't condone smoking indoors where non smokers live or around non smokers if they are outdoors and can't walk away for some reason, I just don't think someone should be treated as if they are human excrement simply because they are a smoker. You don't agree, that's fine as long as I'm not forced to be around you or have to listen to your sermons.
