i mean, why wouldnt they?
life sucks, society sucks, world sucks, who wouldnt want to check out faster.
the same sucky life is even worse with heart disease, not that I don't sympathise with the desire to get out but that's a really dumb way to do it
One of my favourite people used to say "you gotta die from something" whenever the topic of his smoking would come up. Then he got a stroke that didn't kill him.
Ya if it was just death itd be one thing, but becoming mentally disabled or something from a stroke is scarier to me
how about weaponizing your willingness to die against the world that made you want to instead of just dying peacefully
WHY BE THE [[Little Sponge]] WHO HATES ITS [[$4.99]] LIFE WHEN YOU CAN BE A [[BIG SHOT!!!]]
Suicidal people who don’t take at least one fascist with them? World is better off without them anyway.

there are better ways for that. smoking just makes the rest of your life worse
But you look so cool.
