I had a dream 15+ years ago where I walked onto a school bus holding a 5ft long tube of fudge striped cookies over my shoulder and Peter Jennings looked up and said “Nice strip of cookies.” I was so confused, I woke up and laughed.
This is may be the best thing I’ve ever read on Lemmy.
I’m glad you got a kick out of it. My wife still says the line to me a few times a year.
Was jennings the driver or a kid on the bus?
Hah, he was just a passenger!
Cigarettes do not relieve stress- they only cause harm to the smoker and to those around them. Smoking is bad. Don’t smoke.
They do relieve stress though, at a biochemical level. Also they cause harm and you shouldn’t smoke. The harm isn’t worth it and they cause physical dependency, including elevated stress when you don’t smoke that can only be alleviated by smoking, furthering the dependency. Don’t smoke.
But lying about the short term benefits is just like DARE equivocating marijuana and hard drugs: people wind up trying it out anyway, realize they were lied to, and disregard the actual beneficial warnings because the first one was obviously a lie.
What? Smokings bad for you? No way. I think they would tell people about it if that was true.
Yeah, they’d probably put some kind of notice on the box or something.
Yes dad
No shit. Feels fucking excellent every now and then, though.
👏👏👏
YOU CAN’T TELL ME WHAT TO DO! I’M A MAN NOW!
