Yeah really, I mean look at how the global population died out in the 1960s because someone walked past them with a lit cigarette.

You realize there's a difference between cigarette smoke and mustard gas, right? Standing at the door of a room that someone smoked in will have no effect on your health whatsoever. You need to be standing in the room, while they're smoking, preferably for a few decades.



people from the 60s die every day


Yeah, six decades later.


shockingly it's been happening since about 1959


But not because they walked past someone smoking a cigarette.

You assume I'm a smoker based on the fact I point out the mindless paranoia people believe, and casually wish me to die.

Is that the kind of person you want to be?


No, I believe you're a smoker because you implied so in another thread.

I'm not wishing your death any more than you're wishing death on hotel managers. Except you want to smoke more.


I say that hotel managers won't be in danger of health risks from brief exposure to cigarette smoke. I provided reasons why. Thus, I am not wishing their deaths.

You ask me to smoke more, hoping it will hasten my death. Insert "we are not the same" meme here.

So again, is this the person you wish to be? Do you wish death on everyone that points out flaws in your arguments, or just smokers?


Actually I was hoping to make you uncomfortable by pointing out that you know you don't even really want to smoke


That's quite some projection you have going on there. I quite enjoy smoking, for your information. It's inconvenient at times, but so is everything I enjoy.

The "all smokers secretly want to quit" routine is another tale for the gullible.


What do you enjoy about smoking?


Why not ask someone who actually likes you? I'm not the only smoker who enjoys it.


Because you're special
