And maybe a pipe later.

Vaping and coffee are both less likely to kill you than their alternatives

Seems like it's not about traditional vs modern

Remove the cigs and it's actually a good upgrade, coffee does not cause much issues unless you drink 3 glasses a day

Me self medicating ADHD with 4-5 cups of expresso

It's shorthand for the espresso express, a train route from Sleepy Town to Awakesville. All aboard the expresso! 🚄

give me the CluMa rn

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 1 points 2 hours ago

I prefer the fruity flavors of the top vs the bitter flavors of the bottom.

[–] thethrilloftime69@feddit.online 7 points 5 hours ago

You shouldn't smoke cigarettes.

But a French breakfast is a glorious way to start a day.

[–] crazycraw@crazypeople.online 44 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

I'd argue the coffee is better for you vs the monster but don't smoke.

[–] medem@lemmy.wtf 22 points 7 hours ago (4 children)

No need to argue. Caffeine is only bad for your health if you take insane amounts of it, and coffee itself has actual benefits, something you could literally never state about energy drinks. As for smoking vs. vaping, dunno.

[–] prettybunnys@piefed.social 7 points 6 hours ago

Coffee filtered through paper filters to remove the cafestol, in moderation, shows marked health benefits.

I think the world is a better place without foam cups and cigarettes

Vaping and energy drinks have there own problems but are not nearly as bad

[–] endless_nameless@lemmy.world 28 points 4 hours ago (2 children)

Those disposable vapes are so fucking bad for the environment

[–] boonhet@lemmy.zip 6 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

They're also mostly for kids, who shouldn't be vaping anyway. They should be banned.

[–] Stormy@thelemmy.club 3 points 1 hour ago

Idk, I'm a full adult and like them. They're yummy.

I like the fruit flavored nicotine pouches too.

[–] possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 5 points 4 hours ago (2 children)

...and your lungs

Sure they are probably better than cigarettes but the bar is extremely low

[–] endless_nameless@lemmy.world 7 points 4 hours ago (2 children)

I'm not one to complain about what harms people choose to expose themselves to. Everyone owns their own body. The environmental damage effects us all though.

[–] possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 1 points 2 hours ago* (last edited 2 hours ago) (1 children)

I don't want to smell your substance use

[–] endless_nameless@lemmy.world 4 points 2 hours ago

You think I'm advocating for people to smoke in public? You think I'm advocating for people to smoke at all? Why don't you re-read my comment and pay close attention to my wording.

[–] affenlehrer@feddit.org 1 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

It makes health insurance more expensive for everyone, at least here in Germany

[–] endless_nameless@lemmy.world 1 points 2 hours ago

It is crucial to draw a distinction between direct and indirect harms, tangible and abstract harms. Does the problem lie in the individual's right to bodily autonomy and self determination? Or does it lie in the design of a system that forces the consequences of individuals' decisions to be diffused across the entire population? I don't really know, but it raises a lot of questions. Is it fair to punish those who don't make the choice to smoke? Is it fair to treat those who make the choice to smoke differently? Discussion around smoking induces a very, very strong bias.

Consider something else: Should I be made to feel guilty for the economic impact if I choose to cut myself with a knife vs. if someone else chooses to cut me with a knife? Obviously, any compassionate person would be more focused on what caused the decision. Anybody would know in this scenario that inducing guilt over the economics of self harm is fucked. Now, if someone else cut me, the obvious way to repair the situation would be to punish the perpetrator.

Do you see what I'm getting at? You shouldn't be mad at the smoker. Generally, nobody chooses to harm themselves. They misunderstood the risks, fell for it, and got addicted. You should be mad at the cigarette companies for not paying restitution for their societal harm. Maybe smokers should be held responsible for those they spread the social contagion of smoking to, but they are in no way culpable for the indirect, abstract harms you perceive. They aren't choosing to cost you money, your government is choosing it by not holding the perpetrator responsible.

You can cut your finger off at the 2nd knuckle or the 3rd knuckle.

Paper cup coffees and regular cigs are better of these evils. Foam is cursed, but not as cursed as disposable or even rechargeable vape. It's like comparing soft and cold, but someone's more obvious individual likeness to get a lung cancer may be less significant than a trace of li-pol batteries they'd leave after them, I believe.

[–] possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 3 points 4 hours ago* (last edited 4 hours ago) (1 children)

I think they are all terrible. Why compare them when we can simply do none of the above

[–] RudeDuner@lemmy.world 2 points 2 hours ago

Because you compared them

[–] DupaCycki@lemmy.world 6 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

If not for the Marlboro at the bottom, I would have been left puzzled what the top left item is.

[–] tetris11@feddit.uk 12 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

It's a boofer. You use it before anal sex to scent and clean your butthole via steaming

[–] flandish@lemmy.world 6 points 5 hours ago (2 children)

can confirm. tetris has a fantastic smell to their butthole. it’s kinda floral.

[–] SillyDude@lemmy.zip 2 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

Can you send me their underwear, I want a whiff.

[–] flandish@lemmy.world 2 points 4 hours ago (1 children)
[–] SillyDude@lemmy.zip 3 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

Fine, I'll go get it myself.

The bulge isn't 100% accurate though, mine is girthier, and L-shaped

Yeah change shit to piss.

How about... None of those and touch the grass idk?

[–] Semi_Hemi_Demigod@lemmy.world 22 points 8 hours ago

If you’re gonna make me get up too early to go to a place I don’t want to be and deal with people I hate I’m gonna need drugs to keep from causing a scene.
