      Was the ninja there before, during or after the sex? What exactly was his participation? Did he have ninja credentials?

    I don’t think there’s a smoker alive who doesn’t know it’s bad for them and a lot of them would like to quit. It’s a sad thing.

      I wish this was true. But I live in a country full of people who are more afraid of vaccines than horse roundworm drugs.

      There’s still a rump base of Americans convinced climate change, seat belts, dinosaur bones, and warnings on cigarette boxes are an evil trick by the communists in government.

      There’s rarely a mutation that vastly increases healing/cleaning of lung tissue. They get quite old, despite smoking. What do i know, maybe somwhere around 1/100? Not the one-in-a-billion kind of rare.

      Edit: guess it was this?

      When I stopped smoking more than 10 years ago I immediately had a surplus of 300 EUR free cash per month. Two packs a day at 5 EUR per pack at that time.

      Being healthier, not stinking like a wet ash tray and having more and better sex are other features of stopping smoking.

      Wow! Is there a big black market for cigarettes in NZ? And have these prices lead to a lower consumption?

        Yes to both, it has unfortunately led to an increase in crime, because they’re so readily stolen. It has definitely led to a decrease in smoking as well, as a lot of smokers quit for financial reasons.

        It’s perfectly legal to grow your own, interestingly enough, but not many people do.

        Not really a black market for cigarettes here but you can grow your own tobacco legally if you really want to go down that road. Smoking tobacco in younger generations is very rare but vaping on the other hand is very popular. The government was touting a “smokefree by X” date that kept moving back as the dates came closer.

    The “you’ll feel worse and worse” part is pretty blatantly ignoring the endorphin rush that exists here. Like yes you may feel worse on the level, but it’s accentuated with moments of feeling pretty damn great, which seems disingenuous to ignore.

    I’m not even a smoker, and I was happy as hell when I parents quit smoking, but let’s not pretend the choice is as simple as “poison or no poison” without any tangible upsides.

        Perhaps, and I’ll admit this is overthinking a silly comic, but it seems to me that the coffee is a given assumption and it is only the addition of poison which is variable, so I think any implications of the coffee are entirely incidental

    Does it come with nicotine? Cuz that’s kinda why I came in here…at least nicotine gives me a bit of a high while it slowly kills me. Rethink your new product.

      not your breath, but your entire existence. i can smell a smoker who just walks nearby. some from quite a distance. they’re disgusting.

    Just never go into a convenience store. Aside from the sparse selection of fruit everything else there is bad for you. Tobacco, energy drinks, shitty snack food, lotto tickets. The only convenience is an early release from your mortal coil.
