Everyone one is going to die of something sometime.
To: JesusSaves
Gotta watch that dihydrogen oxide, also. It can be lethal if you breathe in too much.

That reminds me, I'm out of smokes again.
To: JesusSaves
No. Smoking very rarely kills. Emphasema, cancer, stroke, ect... those can kill you. While smoking may be a contributing factor, it is hardly the root cause of death.

Are you libs worried about too many people dying from secondhand smoke, SUVs, and Global warming; or are you worried about overpopulation and food shortages? Make up your damn minds.

The way they compile these statistics, I wouldn't be surprised if they classified George Burns' death as smoking-related. If a smoker dies at age 90 of a heart attack, the death is often classified as smoking-related.
To: dirtboy
Yes dihydrogen oxide is far more deadly and dangerous than smoking. It even rusts metal.

Didn't Warren just die of lung cancer from heavy smoking? Now, that's ironic!
To: Flurry
How about plain O2? Once you're hooked, the withdrawal symptoms are always fatal.
To: MrLee
Funny how that works.
I guess the libs only want us to die of 'approved' causes.

Man: "Yes. I'd like to apply for a death, preferably a quick one."
Agency Clerk: "You have the wrong form and the wrong line. Next"
