  • That's definitely a scam. You can't purchase that high of a concentration without regulations getting in the way.

  • Discoloration is the least of my problems. Why are people so obsessed with aesthetics? It's all inside the case anyway.

  • The second part of that statement is provably untrue. I have no idea what gave you that impression.

  • You're no fun at all.

    You talk about it like it's such a big problem. It's just a slightly harmful addiction. And if there's no danger, where's the fun? All the good things in life are at least slightly dangerous or harmful. Drugs, acohol, partying, sex, traveling, even sports and recreational activities. I am aware of the harm, and fine with it. I could spend my life thinking about preserving it, eating healthy, going to the gym, watching my hormone levels and nutrition. But that would be hell. Why live for a long time if every minute of that life is spent worrying about it ending? Why worry? Taking calculated risks is a part of life. The pitfall is not knowing the risk and still taking it.

    Or at least that's how I see it.

    My feelings have little to nothing to do with my state of mind. I can feel no joy in life and know that it is worth living. I don't need a therapist. All the "Mental Health Professionals" I worked with were unable to handle me. So what? I don't have my shit together, and I probably never will. Why should I pretend that THIS is the part of life I should worry about? I have bigger problems than quitting smoking or being happy. For now, it's an unhealthy coping mechanism, and I'm fine with it.

    But, you know, thanks for the motivational speech and all. 👍

  • Do you really want to have a discussion about that? Because I am more than happy to explain my reasoning.

    The biological body has the capacity to regenerate and self clean. If you live in a place with lots of smog, that's the equivalant of smoking cigarettes. It's like with any harmful thing, moderation is the key. If I smoke up to 5 cigarettes a day and live in a place with little to no smog, I'm much less likely to suffer adverse effects to my lungs and throat than not smoking at all and living in a place with lots of smog.

    In addition, I suspect I have some genetic immunity. My great grandfather smoked more than a pack a day for decades, and he lived to like 95 years old.

    Now, about the lung self-cleaning thing. As cells divide, new cells take their place, and old cells are either metabolised by the body or shed off like skin. Inside your lungs, tissue that's damaged by smoking can be healed, as long as it isn't too severe. Aside from that, lungs secrete mucus when irritated, which is then expelled along with the irritant (in most cases. Things like asbestos and fiberglass just stay in there). Through this natural process, the lungs clean themselves from the inside. As long as the rate of intake of the irritant does not exceed tha capacity for the lungs to expell that irritant, the situation doesn't get worse.

    That is my reasoning. Feel free to give me your take.

  • The insulting part was "but have you thought about..." Yes. In fact I did. I did entertain the possibility.

    I'm not saying you were trying to insult me with that, but I did feel insulted. That may be a problem on my part though.

    Wish you well.

  • Thank you for explaining how my life works and what my situation is. Clearly you are much wiser than I could ever be. You are right. I will not only stop smoking, but also stop all the other smokers in my household not to smoke inside. Have you ever thought of writing a book? You'd sell at least 8 billion copies guaranteed.

    Just have it proofread before publishing.

  • Thank you but no thank you. Back where I'm from this would be seen as an insult, but I get the sentiment.

    I should really switch to something else. I've been considering crack and meth, but that's expensive. Although looking at the price of cigarettes these days, it might be a viable alternative soon. Cheers.

  • So it's nothing new. I was hoping for something new.

    I could just quit cold turkey. I have that type of mental fortitude. But smoking is literally one of the... I think three joys that I have in my life. So I'm a bit apprehensive about giving up one of the few things that makes me less miserable.

    And before you ask, all of my "joys of life" can be classified as addictions.

    Maybe that's the problem... I literally have nothing that makes me happy and is healhy. I'll look into that. Thanks for making me think about it.

  • This is the first time I am cleaning my computer in almost 10 years.

    Now tell me again how I should live my life. Please, educate me o wise one.

    Actually, I retract my previous statements. Cleaning my PC once a decade is too often. I really need to stop smoking, and stop everyone else in my 28 square meter apartment to also stop smoking. Thank you. Another life saved!

  • I haven't died yet. And I did a lot of things that would be considered dangerous. You kind of seem like a killjoy. Not only am I fun at parties, I also still have all my fingers and toes. Can you say the same?

  • Finally! someone with at least half a brain. Yes, I don't plan to RUN a PC when it's submerged in EXTREMELY flammable alcohol. Why would anyone think that, i have no idea. The post literally states that I want to clean the PC parts. You clean it when it's turned off and unplugged. Or is that not how people do it?

  • My dude. How is mineral oil supposed to clean my PC? Is it a solvent? I don't remember it being a solvent. I have a feeling people think I want to put a turned on PC in a vat of alcohol. Which is crazy.

    And I respect risk takers. Doesn't make you sound like an asshole. Just EXTREMELY annoying.

  • K thanks. Vaping is for pussies and gay people (no offense to the gays). I am neither, as far as I'm aware. I prefer analog cigarettes. The type that when you inhale you can FEEL the cancer growing.
