Yet another danger of smoking
Hi all !
The doctor is back, and has an urgent warning about how dangerous cigarettes can be to your health. This comes from a dire and unfortunate incident that I personally experienced earlier today that causes me to be WAY more careful about my life in regards to my cigarette smoking.
It all started around 10:00 this morning. I had been working on catching up & sorting out the 2000+ e-mails backlogged in my various accounts during my journey to live with & observe numerous violent sub-mammalian subjects. I thought to take a break from things & go outside to have a smoke.
As it was raining, I made my way to the garden shed to get out of the wind and elements. I dug around for my lighter & a danger stick thinking that I didn't have anything to worry about. Little did I know....
As I took a long drag on the 100mm burning tube of tobacco while contemplating how to modify the handheld leaf vaccum to connect to a bin instead of a bag, I went to take the cigarette out of my mouth.
It started off as a small twinge on the left side, not much to think about, and not much to associate to what caused it. I continued on with my smoking & redesigning of the B & D lawn muncher for a few whiles until I went to tap my ashes and the twinge became a sharp pain & had replicated itself to the center & the right side.
I looked down at my shaking hands, saw some blood, and said to myself "no... It can't be, this cannot be happening to me right here & right now. I am so f*&cked!".
The g-damned paper on the filter was bent up & gave me a paper cut on my lips.
So please take this story with you to warn your friends & others, so that they may not suffer unnecessarily like the great Doctor Strangelove has.
Blessed be, and make sure your butt is smooth

Then I got my wits about me & realized,

I'm glad you weren't coughing up blood...because that sucks. Although I only get that when I have a bloody nose which coagulates, and then I cough, but regardless, it's very gross. Unfortunately I cannot heed your advice, because I so rarely smoke. I suppose in the few times I "do" smoke, I will heed your advice. So, whatever.
So, it's been like 4 months. How about posting something funny?
