Okay, time to take a look:

You understand how these two statements are contradictory, right? You worry about losing your dad. But you want anyone who smokes a pack a day to die a slow, painful death. You worry about your father but want him to die a slow, painful death. Do you see it? Do you see how that doesn't make any god darn sense? Don't make a statement about how you wish painful death on people and get butthurt when they reply in kind. Either learn to read what you type, and think about it before you post, or get used to these responses.

I was actually trying to incorporate a bit of humor into my post. "should die a slow painful death- actually, they will." I don't know if you knew this, but I often like to put a hit of humor into my serious posts, either by stating an oxymoron or an ironic statement like so.

QuoteDo you think this was a guilt trip for me? This poop does not work with me. You're not going to get me to backpedal and try to modify my statement, becasue I know what I type before I hit "post." The laughing part was probably the worst part. What kind of amateur are you? If you're going to troll, get better at it. If you're not trolling, then I don't know what to tell you. Read a book or something.

I really wasn't trying to troll, but okay. You are the one who began trolling me first for my opinion. Thanks.

QuoteOh, I see. I was in the wrong when I read your post that says anyone who smokes should die a slow, painful death. I must have been wearing my heart on my sleeve or something. Silly me.

Meh, I just said.. ironic statement, intended humor, bleh.

QuoteListen: If you're going to wish death on people, be prepared for strong responses from those people. You can't get mad or try to label them as malevolent when the respond in kind.

So you do smoke a pack or more a day?

Oh ho ho ho, classic. Oh, man, K, you gotta learn some new moves. Trying to claim humor at the end? No dice. At least try to have a backbone and back up what you say. And this?

QuoteI really wasn't trying to troll, but okay. You are the one who began trolling me first for my opinion. Thanks.

Oh, Lord. I posted in the anger thread mentioning I smoke, and you post that you think all smokers should die, I respond, and I'm trolling you? Man, that poop don't fly. A "he started it!" argument? Again, no dice.

You want to talk poop on people, own it. Back it up. Don't try to play the victim. Poor K, who posted and was viciously attacked by that brigand Boredfanboy.

QuoteMeh, I just said.. ironic statement, intended humor, bleh.

This is great. Now we're on to the "whatever" stage, where you didn't take any of this seriously and were just casually responding. Well, I guess except all that "poor me" info you posted about your grandma and father. So which is it, victimized or lethargic? It doesn't matter, because it inevitably leads to . . .

QuoteSo you do smoke a pack or more a day?

The "I'm trying to get things on track/ I was only asking a question" response. "Poor me! I was just asking if he smoked a lot and he attacked me again . . . boo hoo hoo."

Um, what? No, I was clearly trying to input humor from when I originally typed that out. So, do you have proof that I didn't? No? Fine.

So, you got butthurt by my joke. I'm sorry. <3

I was. If you don't smoke at an extremely unhealthy level, that's fine. If you do, then why don't you just drop the subject now? You have a chance to be the bigger person and forget all this. I'm just an immature little highschooler. Me no can do dat. D:

No, Bored won't be the bigger man. I'll be the man with an anger issue. K, really, shut up on the topic. Bored pretty well dissected you, and now you can't even accept it. I agree - smoking is silly. But at least when I challenge his logic, I try and better my understanding of it. You're not doing that, and frankly, it's annoying. Your time in the thread is done.

K

I remember having a friend that broke the glass off the outside door when a teacher got him angry.

Also, me circa 2003-2007.

It's just one less minute you get to enjoy as you grow old.

[In case K gets the chance to come back to read this...] For clarification, each smoked cigarette takes about 11 minutes of the life of a male smoker. Just a little fact.

Not to start an issue, but I have to say, isn't that a bit of an oxymoron? While I don't know a ton about smoking, as far as I know, it should make your body speed up on all fronts. Breathing becoming shallower makes sense to me, but that would mean quicker breaths. What about that is calming? Is it a real physical response, or is it some psychological thing the atmosphere, or the people you are around?

I'm pretty sure that cigarettes--like alcoholic beverages--are a depressant. That's just off the top of my head though, so don't take it as a proven fact. It'd make sense to me if it were though.

I'd never thought of quicker breaths or shallower breathing, though. I've always thought that cigarettes slow down breathing and thinking. I'm pretty sure that it's a physical and psychological response as well--that gives the calm feeling, that is.

Also, I liked K's position more, but--admittedly--BOREDFANBOY's arguing worked better. Not to downplay the seriousness of your topic, but thanks for the decent read guys.

What about a female smoker?

And I can get a short temper once in a while. But my temper lasts a minute and then all my anger is gone. I can normally control it, but it's harder to hold in around family. Although I've gotten so much better. I don't lash out on my mom anymore. And since my dad is the same way as me, we sometimes get into huge screaming matches and then get over it and watch a movie together or something right after.

Although I blame some of my anger on being a teenager. It is slowly dissipating each year, so maybe I'm really not an angry person after all.

I found that fact a few times in different places, and they varied a bit each time. In general, each smoked cigarette takes about 10 minutes of life away from any smoker. I had a good reason for using that specific fact from before, but I can't remember exactly what it was.

Anyway, don't smoke!
