R.I.P. Angry Cat

The lie that won't die. My grandfather started smoking after he joined the service in World War II. The soldiers and sailors were issued cigarettes by the Unites States Navy under the guise of smoking as a means of calming the nerves and building bravery. A lie agreed upon is still a lie.

Hell no

Nope!

NOPE!

NOPE!!!!!!!!!!!!

No, no.... no! Was just binging 'Dead to me', netflix series. So far, so good. Ok for a saturday evening on the couch, tea, beers and crochet. Right in the middle of the 4th episode, clues come together, secrets are out in the open, two girl friends having dinner and wine and the dirt is literally on the dinner table. Tears, anger, some jealous car scratching and then.... one of 'm buys cigarettes and the other one says she loves her for it...! And ofcourse they light up and immediately calm down and have a reasonable conversation... oh right. I am in shock! This is soooo Marlboro man old fashion.. how can they still do it like that? I thought we were past that? Apparantly NOT. The only nice thing about it... i felt true repulsion. Really, what a cheap move. -Edit- ah I was too quick. She cant get it lit! Well. What about that. Weird.

The part I find disturbing is that hey are promoting the lie we all buy into, that smoking calms you in a tense situation. This is the major stumbling block for many people quitting. Not understanding the difference between nicotine addiction stress and life stress. Cigarettes only solve one kind of stress and it's NOT life stress!

I think it's a fictional TV show for made for you entertainment....or not. If that bothers you definitely don't watch Mad Men.

NOPE, RIP grumpy cat. Seven is so young

G’day NOPE starts my day

Wait ..... Your son isn't the real Polkaroo is he?

NOPE

Feel better Lilly, xoxo. I'm thinking about a friend and wishing I could give her a hug.....

I suppose the reality of life is that millions of people still smoke. I think by removing smoking/drinking/drugs it would also remove that reality of life. We are quitters so we view that scene differently to a lot of other people. Never smokers and smokers probably never even viewed it the way you did - in fact they probably never thought about it at all. I once blew a quit because someone was smoking in a programme. How pathetic is that lol. Hope things are ok with you. Sounds like a perfect evening to me. Only thing I would add is some cheese and onion crisps

OK so, Here's the story: 1. This one's True! I said coleslaw because sauerkraut is virtually unheard of where I live. It's only available as a dressing for Hot Dogs or Sausages from the food cart venders and I guess if you went to a German restaurant.? And Yes; arms crossed, pouting like a child while I send my food back and request not only that the slaw be removed but that my food be re-plated to avoid any potential slaw-juice contamination. 2. This one's True. My dad found out because the kid that saved me told his dad who told my dad. I got into big trouble over that one. 3. Is a Lie! I have no Inuit heritage in my bloodline. Wish I did cuz I would pay NO taxes Looks like you're up again Lilly

20!!

Thanks jillar , johnny5

Big Congrats Lilly..2 Months is truly amazing...keep strutting on

NOPE

Yes. The propaganda put forth by big tobacco and tacitly endorsed by the federal government and all of the agencies that fall under its domain had been thoroughly discredited by independent research. Independent research that was silenced and destroyed by the powers that be at the time. Silencing the opposition is not the same as winning the argument.

00 Well done!

This made me cry with laughter. That is EXACTLY how I've walked around the last two months lol.

I definitely don't think you would say saurkraut I think you would say slaw. I say 3
