Even though he quit for 2 decades, his days of heavy smoking still got him in the end. Lung cancer got him in his 60s.
He started smoking again after 911 iir.
Hell of a day to quit sniffing glue
Anyone knows the context of that picture?

I’ve read that aircraft mechanics were sad when smoking stopped because the nicotine smears on the aircraft were such a good visual clue of where air was leaking and it made theirs jobs a lot easier.

But is it as disgusting as rapid depressurization?
False binary, though? It’s not have smoking or have rapid depressurization…
Clearly you’ve never tried to quit smoking before…
Are…you making a joke or serious? I genuinely can’t tell…
More disgusting less distressing
I’m renovating a house that was last inhabited by smokers. My first attempt at painting inside led to the just-applied paint flowing down from the tops of the walls overnight.
I’ve helped renovate several smoker houses. Use Killz paint or a similar product, it works. Wear a mask, the fumes from that shit will fuck you up.
Before I repainted the “flowing” areas I wiped them down with mineral spirits and that seemed to do the trick.

I was on a plane in the very early 90’s, and I remember being about 10 years old and the second the ‘smoking okay’ sign came on, a WALL of smoke rolled back through the curtains that separated the sections.

I first started eating out regularly in the '80s, and even now I will occasionally randomly ask to be seated in a restaurant’s non-smoking section. It’s surreal to think that was ever a thing.
I’m starting to forget that these things existed, because I’m old enough to remember a time when there was such a thing as a smoking/non-smoking section in restaurants but it feels like an entire lifetime ago that it was actually relevant to the point now where it would be a massive culture shock to see somebody light up indoors anywhere, let alone in a restaurant.
I like to point to indoor smoking bans and seatbelt laws as actual evidence of how a culture war backed up with science and facts can be sustained and won even against seemingly insurmountable odds to the benefit of society as a whole. In both of those cases, the data eventually won out against the multibillion dollar industries that were resisting regulation as well as the “muh freedom” crowd.
Nothing shook me more than watching Tom Brokaw continuously fighting to keep his composure and struggling to find his words during 9/11.
He’d need a blunt to deliver the climate change section these days
Dabs.
Ayeeee
You think you do, but you don’t.
“and the British discover the child abuse hotline”
… They sure did. Well done, Andrew.
Nowadays we have memes for that
