I blamed bras.

Back in the 60s and 70s when younger women went braless things were better.

Or maybe walking around with boner just made it seem that way.

Women are much hotter when they smoke, so, there's that.

I quit smoking about 5 years ago.  The ONLY time that I miss it is on a cold day.  Sitting in a tree stand.  

Now when I am at the store, and I smell the stale stink on someone.  It about makes me want to puke.

I quit once for 10 years.

This time I have quit for over 20 years.


I will not be participating in this, or any other, save the world plan.

It is an established fact that no man has landed on the moon and no US wars have been won since people stopped smoking, and yet every day our society falls further into chaos. If we have any chance of pulling out of this dive we need to start smoking again.

Thank you for listening to my presentation.

Another forgotten cause of our current calamity was the removal of the Confederate Flag from the Southern states most affected by disasters.

Cigarettes are an expensive way to die young.

The internet is actually what fucked up our society.  It would have fucked up our society with or without the NO SMOKING signs.

Swing and a miss OP, correlation does not imply causation.  Europe has lots of smokers and they look less like Steve McQueen and more like Louie Anderson.  That continent hasnt done squat in decades, their only shining achievement in that time is Nutella.


How many non smokers have pioneered fission.

Apparently you have a reading comprehension problem.  Many, many people smoked back then.  WW2 soldiers were given cigs, helps suppress appetite - which is a big part of why a lot of French (and other European) women smoke today.

I do think the process of deep breathing helps relax and possibly stimulate the brain.  If people did that several times a day I think they would see a benefit but humans need an addictive component to a behavior to get them to execute that behavior regularly.

I agree with OP, people should still smoke. American society would be more productive and less fat. Also, is it really more dangerous to smoke or be 250 pounds overweight?

They might do it on their own time but if a customer found a mechanic smoking or chewing in their car, they are going to lose their minds.

When I was training as a mechanic in the shop I was put with Luigi for a while to learn the older cars. Dude would smoke a cigarette on the test drive after repair every single time. I feel he had the status though and management wasn't about to say nothing about it.
