OMG, NO!! A New, Deadly Addiction!

[Anjaffm]

I'm actually out of work at the moment. Do you know of any openings for someone who can <s>advise governments on addiction</s> make up bull****?

Unfortunately not.
Or I would take the job myself, feeding Oreo cookies to my three pet rat boys (free of charge, of course) and then getting paid a lot of money for writing a bunch of .. rat droppings... about it.

Hm.. rat droppings... I wonder if "scientific studies" have been done about the benefits of using rat droppings for.. uhm. ok.. for whatever. My boys produce enough of them, so if I could sell those... Hm... I think I'll have to go make a "study" on rat droppings

..................
Edit:

now get this, dears!
This is the original "study" - and some of the "researchers" are 13 and 15 years old:

2013 - Connecticut College

Yeah.. newsworthy indeed.. and yet that crap is all over the media.

I just find this all hilarious!

Anjaffm, the '13 '15 after a name signifies "class of," so these "researchers" are college students, seniors or juniors and so forth. Actually, now that I think about it, not much different from highschool students, lol!

But never mind about the Oreos, fellow vapers, we are all screwed no matter what: WHO agency: Air pollution causes cancer - NBC News.com. No doubt soon the WHO will be banning outdoor breathing... (Which means we must all stay inside while munching on Oreos...)

Thank you, AgentAnia.
Sorry, I did not know that about the "13" and mistook it for the age of the people
Still sounds like "Jugend forscht" to me

-------------
- "Jugend forscht" - approx. "young people do research" = campaign in Germany where young people, highschool and college students, do research on stuff, like inventing things. The best inventions get a prize. However, such kind of "findings" would not have received a prize in that - quite nice and serious - campaign to promote young people.

- The expression "Jugend forscht" is also said in jest when somebody is trying to find something out that is not easy, like to the colleagues at work. (calls colleague on phone : "Hi, this is Anja, department "Jugend forscht". Say, do YOU happen to know who is the new guy responsible for... etc etc" )

And thanks for the link, tee hee

Hm.. that gives me an idea:
While outdoor breathing causes cancer, vaping most definitely does not. Hm..... then.. may it not be beneficial to vape while moving around outdoors... to dilute the unhealthy, cancer-causing outdoor air with harmless vapor?

I can see the headline now:
Vaping reduces chance of cancer while breathing outdoors

Gosh, I must have eaten too many Oreos....

OMG! So many of us have been saying that for forever. Finally, it's in the open. Is it no wonder so many contracted lung cancer back in the day before all the pollution control freaks took the reins. Yet, the doctors never asked the patients if they rode for hours in traffic, on diesel school buses, and so forth. Nope. They were instructed to ask whether or not they or someone smoked. Such bull plucky cover ups. Today, they finally admit it.... But with their greedy hands wringing in anticipation of bigger fines and taxes for corporations and diesel trucks...

Addiction is the Marketing term of this half century.. It means: .... bigger greedier business, taxes and lobbyists, special interest groups, and control of the people's will. Everything we do is an addiction of something, commanding a way to a counter measure to profit from it.

Pretty much If you enjoy something you are addicted! Heaven forbid you find something that makes life worth living or something that can consume your thoughts and take you away from the ever growing negativity the world creates.
