Asbestos filters please.
Keep laughing. Especially funny that part with you sitting in a huge pile of plastic. While knowing perfectly well that it isn't good for you.
And that guy didn't know much about the harm of cigarettes in '51.
Who is more deserving of laughter, hmmm?
Both can be correct. I didn't know plastic was as bad as it was when I was a kid. I laugh at how stupid I used to be all the time.
Besides, if that man is still alive he'd be like 95 and in the exact same situation as the rest of us. Maybe we could joke together about how fucking stupid we are while cursing the corporations that lied to us.
