What, lung tumors weren’t scary enough?

Wow, I’d better get a few new suits and shine my shoes to a high shine.
If I’m going to be impotent, I want to look impotent.

That’s why people smoke them *after* sex.

Shootin’ Buddy wins the thread, not least because now I can quote his comment while saying “he said it, not me!” That sort of thing’s useful here in Kaliforniastan.

The warning I read on a pack of Marlboros I bought in Ireland about 15 years ago was less a warning and more a mob threat: “You’ll quit smoking if you know what’s good for you.”

From Jamaica? Wonder if there’s a warning label for the ganja, and if so, what does it say?

Hasn’t worked for me yet. Am I doing it wrong?
addendum: Could it be the menthol? Vicks turns me off.
RML, if memory serves, it says “Welcome to Jamaica mon, have a nice day.”

I thought mother’s milk causes everything – I’m so confused!

Smoked for 41 years before I quit a couple of years back. Father of 5.
For me, not so much.

Of all of the possible worst case side effects, impotency is second only to “anal leakage”.
Death is after incontinence, somewhere around #5 or #6.

*snort!*
Only on the 100s. On the kings, it just says “Wendy”. 😉

In vitro and animal studies, and some epidemiological evidence based on volunteers and patients, have supported a link between smoking and ED [erectile dysfunction]. . . These studies indicate that smoking is an independent risk factor for vasculogenic impotence and underline the possibility that smoking may act in a synergistic/additive manner with other risk factors.

I’d be a lot more likely to quit if the people urging me to do so weren’t such a pack of dull jerks.

There are wanna-be cowboys in Jamaica?

I’d like to thank the staff of the University of East Anglia for setting us free forever from the dictates of Big Political Science. The CDC and their pack of research whores are going down like the global temperature average.

I wonder if they put that warning on the smoking product they are most famous for.

Damn, I wanna be impo’tent! Sign this brother up for some menthols.
