You are a loser if you smoke cigarettes
Smokers are extremely casual though.
I'm about as anti-smoking as it gets, and whaaaaat the hell is this.
People shouldn't smoke because smokers' lives have worth that they shouldn't let be destroyed at the hands of the tobacco industry, not because it makes them "losers". What the actual fuck is this shit.
If they are losing their lives by smoking, aren't they losers by definition? ;P
Says a guy sitting at a computer/on phone and not working out. What a loser
RDIT: Lemmy mods, this was a rhetorical insult as I was just making a point
You missed that I was being cheeky I think, but anyway. Both things can be true at the same time, idk what's the point you are making but it isn't disproving my cheeky dumb sentence at all. ¯\(ツ)/¯
My bad, assumed you meant that in full seriousness. My point was simply that people are not losers just because you do something that's hard not to do. I was a smoker for 8 years. 1.5 years clean.
Agreed. I was being cheeky on the "losing their life" -> losers, same way someone that dives would be a diver lol.
Admittedly, everyone is losing their life all the time lol so we are all losers.
I guess you didn't get the ;P being a 😋
Funny you say that because my ex used ;P during "gotcha" moments and so I assumed you used it in a ridicule way too lmao
Maybe they think shaming will be effective
The only thing I could think of when I read their comment is that they're calling cigarette smokers "losers" while spending their time calling cigarette users "losers" in a meme community on a backwater social media site.
I laughed; if I smoked, I'd have laughed harder.
Maybe they're just an asshole.
Bad Dudes!
lol, ", Director, FBI". Obviously we should listen to this message from such an important person that required listing their title and where they work. Dude was probably stoked to say "I put my name in video games!"
I’m going to start smoking again just to spite you.
Congratulations, you played yourself
I genuinely can't tell if this is a ragebait or you genuinely think that.
I could agree with "people who make smoking their lifestyles and portray it as a cool thing to do", but almost no smoker wants to be a smoker
Doesn't failure to quit literally make you a loser?
The power of one's addiction mostly comes from genetics, not your vibes. While many can't really get addicted to weed, others will evolve around it. By your logic, every mentally weaker person is a loser
This. Is. SPARTA.
We drop our disabled and mentally ill down into the bottomless pit. Completely useless losers.
Sounds very american to me
Funny because I was born in a socialist state and what I'm saying sounds closer to socialism than it does to capitalism society
If you lose you're a loser. No one can be a winner in everything.
Technically correct, but is it right to say it?
Same situation applies in other situations, and it isn't limited to addiction.
And eat sugar and drive car
Okokok I don't drive 😎
That's clearly false and ignores the years of subtle advertising in Hollywood movies.
And also if you do that ^ ^ ^
