That’s right. You see, according to Obama’s plan. *I’m* the enemy. Because I like to think, I like to read. I’m into freedom of speech, freedom of choice. I’m the kind if guy who would sit in the greasy spoon and think “Gee, should I have the T-bone steak or the big rack of Barbecued spare ribs with the side order of gravy fries?” I *want* high cholesterol. I want to eat bacon, butter and buckets of cheese alright? I want to smoke a Cuban cigar the size of Cincinatti in a non-smoking section. I wanna run around naked with green jell-o all over my body reading a Playboy magazine. Why? Because maybe I feel the need to okay pal? I’ve *seen* the future, you know what it is. It’s made by a 47 year-old virgin in gray pajamas soaking in a bubble bath, drinking a broccoli milkshake and thinking “I’m an Oscar-Meyer Wiener”. You wanna live on top, you gotta live Cacteau’s way. What he wants, when he wants, how he wants. Your other option: come down here, maybe starve to death.
I don’t know if every CVS does. I guess it depends on the state. But I have seen booze, not just wine and beer at CVS.
The allotment for space for complete trash is astounding. Most of the employees don’t even know they have a pharmacy.
Prolly a good thing there, or most of the employees would be hanging out in the pharmacy.
Months? More like decades. Seems a relatively 'poor' family with 5 acres of land, a couple of barns, and the willingness to work hard used to be able to send a kid (or two) to college off the revenue from the crop.
Can't have someone who isn't in thrall to the bankers or the government, now, can we? Can't have no po' folks gittin uppity and working their way up, neither.
That problem could be self-limiting. Pity about the collateral damage.
How many people have had car accidents as the result of smoking a cigarette? None at all.
Actually, enough that most insurance companies will charge a tobacco user a premium--even on their car insurance (think of dropped 'cherries' and trying to keep your crotch from catching on fire).
A distraction, granted, not as bad as 'texting' or the 95% of idiot drivers I have seen who were on the phone, but one of the first identified.
Sadly, "tobacco user" also covers those of us who use smokeless tobacco, and we aren't going to burn any tender parts with that.
Thanks for the ping!
“I despise breathing cigarette smoke. I also despise having to pay higher insurance rates in order to cover smoking-related diseases. But I support the freedom of others to make the choice whether or not to smoke. (Just don’t force me to breathe it or pay for it.)”
If you are overweight, I despise you for having medical problems I have to pay for. If you eat fast food, I despise you for clogging your vessels with fat and causing you to have heart problems I have to pay for. If you drink alcohol, I despise you for drinking and causing medical problems I have to pay for. If you have a genetic disease given to you by one of your parents, I despise them for not aborting you so you wouldn’t have medical problems I would have to pay for.
When one human thinks he/she is superior to another due to “x” and wants to change other people to be more perfect like them, we have wholesale slaughter at some point to make all people alike which is never going to happen and millions die needlessly - that has been tried by despots the world over.
You are an individual and I don’t care what you do with your life as it is up to you. We need to butt out of other people’s lives because there is no perfect person - Jesus Christ is perfect and He’s the one to talk to about our own choices in life.
At the moment, I am smoking a Pall Mall menthol light cigarette. It’s my house and I can do whatever I want - so far no one has arrested me for smoking in my house but there are those who would want to do just that. They will want to come after you if you do anything like I listed up this post.
When one of us is arrested for being free, the rest, including you, will also be arrested for something. It’s a choice - don’t judge others and want something done about them, because you will be next. I wish people could see this happening but they excuse themselves, being sure they won’t be one of those removed from society for the good of the rest of society - that will be death to them, too.
446 BC–c. 386 BC – Aristophanes
“Youth ages, immaturity is outgrown, ignorance can be educated, and drunkenness sobered, but stupid lasts forever.”
1934- Harlan Ellison: American science fiction author
“The two most common elements in the Universe are Hydrogen and Stupidity.”
1937-2008 - George Carlin
"Think about how stupid the average person is, and then realize that half of 'em are stupider than that."
1956- Ron White - "You can't fix stupid."
“Hanson’s Razor” – “Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity.”
Right on, Marcella!
That was a wonderful post!
Is someone ELSE getting harmed by a guy spitting tobacco juice in a cup?
No, but that's not the point of these tyrants.
The fact that they DON'T LIKE what you're doing is reason enough.
Harm? Hardly. The most important thing is that you OBEY.
I found out from someone with similar symptoms (and better doctors--mine tried to tell me it was "my imagination" and got fired on the spot) that they'd had a developing ulcer in the small intestine just beyond the duodenum... (I wonder if tobacco juice kills heliobacter pylori?)
Anyhow, I not only feel better, I use tobacco where I darned well please, no spit cup involved.
He ended up with brown teeth, but he didn't care.
I remember we were rounding on some patients at another hospital. He drove, and he smoked the entire way.
Normally this wouldn't bother me too much, but he had bumper stickers that said: "No Newts is good Newts".
And "Clinton '96"
Now THAT bothered me.
To make matters worse, he LOOKED like Clinton.
So I was glad when I didn't have to work with the guy anymore.
Clinton supporters would be hard to tolerate, but, thankfully, I work in an industry with very few liberals (they just don't last long).
Lol... haven’t seen a Bidi (pack) since I was in Kuwaite/SA.. Wasn’t aware they had started selling them in USA.
My post is the truth. I posted on another thread yesterday I think is was, that I am so old I remember when we were free. It won't be long in the future when people won't know what freedom is as their lives will be regimented by federal law.
To defeat the above happening to me, I created my own country and I am president for life of my country. My country consists of my house and back garden. It is a complete country and I can lock my front door and not need anything from a utility company or any store for a very long time and still have a decent standard of living. If you have read Atlas Shrugged, I can be John Galt the minute I lock my front door.
More and more, you see the rejection of individualism and the magnificent mosaic it creates.
The human spirit's being crushed by collectivism and the yearning for sameness.
I don’t think the states that are addicted to tobacco tax revenues are going to like this.
