Except smoking absolutely harms your health & others (second & third hand smokers). Plus one chooses to smoke. One do not choose to be gay.

Showerthoughts

A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The most popular seem to be lighthearted clever little truths, hidden in daily life.
Here are some examples to inspire your own showerthoughts:
- Both “200” and “160” are 2 minutes in microwave math
- When you’re a kid, you don’t realize you’re also watching your mom and dad grow up.
- More dreams have been destroyed by alarm clocks than anything else
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- No politics
- If your topic is in a grey area, please phrase it to emphasize the fascinating aspects, not the dramatic aspects. You can do this by avoiding overly politicized terms such as "capitalism" and "communism". If you must make comparisons, you can say something is different without saying something is better/worse.
- A good place for politics is c/politicaldiscussion
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct and the TOS
If you made it this far, showerthoughts is accepting new mods. This community is generally tame so its not a lot of work, but having a few more mods would help reports get addressed a little sooner.
Whats it like to be a mod? Reports just show up as messages in your Lemmy inbox, and if a different mod has already addressed the report, the message goes away and you never worry about it.

Yeah finally someone saying it. All these passive gays and second hand gay activity that nobody consented to, so rude.
Where can one find secondhand gay? Asking for a friend
Find where the rainbow touches the ground. Or, wait, that's leprechauns.
I once stood next to a gay couple having a blowjob. A few seconds later I got blown aswell from one of them. Imagine my surprise as I'm not gay, I swear, I just happened to be there
How is a straight guy getting a gay blowjob like walking a tightrope?
They're both extremely thrilling, just don't look down.
Ah yes, my firstborn came out smoking an unfiltered Camel... What the fuck are you talking about!?
I've never known anyone to be beaten to death for smoking.
Bait used to be believable
Only the cool people do it?
Fuxk smoking and fuck people who smoke in public places that everyone else gets to inhale that shit.
And yes fuck the vapes for the same reasons.
And if you must ask, I did quit after 15 years, 20 years ago. Fuck that shit.
No, it's not.
Smoking these days is like being a homophobe in 2026
You are doing it wrong.
People need pariahs.
Do you smoke?
Being gay now IS HORRIBLE. Fucking false equivalency of the grossest order. Also, fags and faggots? SMFH
I feel sorry for OP because years of social media conditioned people to react instead of think. You used trigger words here, it turns brains off, the moment you said gay this was all people could think about, while the post isn't about gay people, but about social acceptance.
Sure, if you completely ignore the concept of agency.
You still thinking this is about the smoker or the gay and not about the observer.

I've interacted with OP in the past. I don't feel sorry for OP in the slightest.
hehe fair enough (I know nothing about OP :P)
