You shouldn't be able to smoke outside an ER anyway... People come through there with life threatening problems and need all the oxygen they can get
Need to be 9m from the doors around here and maybe as smoking gets less and less popular it will change to outside the hospital's lot like we already do with schools...
Yeah in my sister's town the hospital no longer has a smoking area. Some patients run off into the park behind the hospital to have one, and I guess the doctors and nurses just vape in some room instead.

Lucky Strike cigarettes
Your Throat Protection -- against irritation -- against cough.
Friendly reminder. THIS is the type of bullshit the boomers grew up with, and see nothing wrong with.
But a 16 year old at Walgreens working register needing to call for a manager to sell cigerettes because she legally can't? Well that teenager is clearly what's wrong with society!
Unreal.
"Reduces flesh" is such odd wording. Whose flesh? What flesh?
They seem to imply that if instead of eating a snack you have a cigarette, then you'll lose weight
Yeah, "flesh" is just such weird wording though. Like saying "reduces meat"
They mean the nicrotic flesh rotting off later in life, getting a foot or a leg amputated is the fastest way to loose weight after all. Worked a year in a ward for smoking patients, the smell is so haunting...
What flesh?
I expect that they're referencing this:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cigarette_smoking_for_weight_loss
Cigarette smoking for weight loss is a weight control method whereby one consumes tobacco, often in the form of cigarettes, to decrease one's appetite. The practice dates to early knowledge of nicotine as an appetite suppressant.
Tobacco smoking was associated with appetite suppression among Pre-Columbian indigenous Americans and Old World Europeans.[1] For decades, tobacco companies have employed these connections between slimness and smoking in their advertisements, mainly in brands and advertisements targeting women.
This baffles me so often. I have a coworker who is on cigarettes, weed, caffeine, and alcohol. But is not vaccinated, because that's unhealthy.
Lately he cought me in the office eating sweets and started to educate me how bad sugar is.
You can't make that shit up.
Lately he cought me in the office eating sweets and started to educate me how bad sugar is.
I mean, people do tend to eat more sugar than they probably should, but the main artificial sweetener that I see used in candies is xylitol, which is, unfortunately, also a laxative. Eat more than a few xylitol-sweetened candies at one sitting, and one's in for diarrhea.
I assume that we don't have an artificial sweetener in 2024 that both avoids having a laxative effect and has the appropriate properties to subsititute for sugar in candies. I'd be delighted if someone would manage to develop one, though.
Good lord. I went to the kitchen to get me a coffee and grabbed a cookie from the snack bar.
There's a reckoning coming with social media mark my words. I don't know when or how but it's going to reach a tipping point when the destruction is enough.
It is destroying families and communities not government, or science, or policies. People like Elon and Zuckerberg are sowing the seeds that are actively destroying the fabric of society.
It's already happened, we elected Donald fucking Trump to be president TWICE
Once someone stops thinking that they should do what the scientific and medical communities advise, it's not a large step for them to start thinking they should do specifically what they advise against.
More than mildly.
She went outside to smoke, so that's good at least.
But the child is inside her though(atleast one of them)
Just because you are not allowed to smoke in there. I guarantee she would have smoked indoors otherwise.
Ok this is way more than mildly infuriating…
There's no test to be a parent. All you have to do is fuck. Creampied by some rando behind a dumpster? Congratulations, the MIRACLE of life.
Human society never really evolves, just rows in circles.
Am I an asshole if my first thought was "vaccinate the child while the mother is outside"?
The child is having a fever. It's not good to vaccinate a sick person.
