^
that assumes the smoker is addicted and smokes inside

dont' assume

"392, your solid arguments have convinced me to start smoking.

Just because I'm statistically much more likely to hurt myself through smoking doesn't mean that I will get hurt.

Also, I will stop wearing my seat belt. That gives me a higher probability of being seriously injured in a wreck, but no one can look in a crystal ball and say that I'll definitely get hurt.

Kudos for bringing sound logic to teh Wolfweb."

wow

things I've stated in this thread:
1) I hate when people throw [litter] their cigarette butts wherever
2) I hate (more than #1) when people assume all smokers litter
3) I'm not meaning to imply that wolfpackgrrr meant #2 when she said #1
4) I own multiple portable ashtrays, and use them in a variety of ways
5) I only smoke 3-4 cigarettes per week
6) I assert that I am a responsible smoker, because I don't litter

7) I suggested that the reference to the lois (of family guy) quote "wins" the thread
8) I provided an anecdote about my grandmother, validating dagreenone's anecdote
(and providing additional anecdotal evidence that smoking won't keep you from reaching old age healthy)
9) I said not to believe propaganda that would suggest conclusions other than those supported by #8
10) I expressed my opinion on the ashtray policy of app. state as being dumb
11) I pointed out that other problems may exist with #10, according to the law of unintended consequences

12) I pointed out that two unequal statements regarding smoking are, in fact, not equal
13) I clarified to evan what I meant, because he apparently thought I implied that [smoking] isn't bad for you
14) I further clarified to evan what I meant, by reiterating my opposition to "future-telling" propaganda
15) I pointed out that all smoke isn't the same, refuting evan's implied assertion that it was
16) I sarcastically poked fun at evan over his suggesting that a facet of common sense is only learned in adult classes

17) I rudely pointed out by asking for "something I don't already know" that evan's post did not introduce disputed facts

18) I reiterated what was said by evan, and what propaganda was said, in general, by those from #9
19) I provided a number of examples of said propaganda, focusing on it's "future-telling" flaw
20) I reiterated how said propaganda is "future-telling" and how that doesn't really exist
21) I pointed out to evan where his arguments went from accurate generalizations to impossible predictions
22) I pointed out the futility of acting as though said arguments were valid
23) I asserted, (in other words) that neither 51% nor 99% equals 100%,
24) I asserted that stating the contrary to #23 is improper and a mistake
25) I pointed out how making said mistake removes credibility from evan's arguments against smoking



things you must think I've stated, (but didn't) because you can't read or are just stupid
1) being statistically much more likely to hurt oneself through smoking doesn't mean that one will get hurt
2) since you can't prove that smoking will necessarily produce disease or death in everyone, you should do it
3) smoking doesn't hurt you
4) deciding to smoke is no different than deciding to not wear a seat belt
5) acutely endangering your health by active harms is analogous to indirectly endangering your health by active dangers


are you that dumb?

or did you just jump to conclusions when you casually noticed I was refuting anti-smoking arguments?

I remember sometime in the last couple of days (that period of amnesia I had), someone asked me if I was trying to hide a cigar behind my back because I smelled like smoke so bad.

I thought they were insane.
