Oh, fun! It was blue asbestos, too. They couldn't have made it any more carcinogenic if they tried.

Why settle for regular cancer if you can have TURBO cancer?

[–] [email protected] 22 points 8 months ago (1 children)

I want my tumors to get tumors!

the secret was here the whole time, use cancer to cure the cancer! Finally, I can be proud of my astrology sign!

Turbo is clearly better, no?

"Ok, so...I guess now we need to dip them in arsenic to prevent bacterial infection. And we could also irradiate them to make sure the viruses are all dead!"

"Yeah, man. We'll have the healthiest cigarettes on the market!"

Throw some lead based paint on the box and baby, you got a stew goin'

[–] [email protected] 23 points 8 months ago (4 children)

And we could also irradiate them

It will be expensive, but make sure you find a neutron source. Don't settle for the stuff that basically everybody uses for irradiating things.

We don't want no pansy electron beam irradiators! Full ompf ionozation please.

That's-a one spicy devil stick!

You like-a deh filter, eh?

[–] [email protected] 17 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Holy shit, how long would one live without lung cancer smoking these? Directly inhaling fibers which never will leave your lung again. Did anyone smoke these for the years they existed and lived without lung cancer?

[–] [email protected] 14 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

From the asbestos.com link someone else posted:

Asbestos exposure is the primary cause of pleural mesothelioma, a rare and aggressive cancer, but inhaling asbestos also multiplies a smoker’s risk of developing lung cancer fiftyfold or greater.

The carcinogenic risk of asbestos exposure and cigarette smoking is exponentially higher than the risk of each exposure added. This is known as the synergistic effect of asbestos exposure and smoking.

It reminds me of slavaboos breathing through asbestos gas mask filters.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 8 months ago (1 children)

I remember the "micronite" filter in their advertisements. I had no idea it was made out of freaking asbestos.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 8 months ago

I miss r/asbestosremovalmemes. It wasn't a big enough community to try to replicate here on Lemmy. Asbestos memes are so goddamn funny to me.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 8 months ago (8 children)

What's the point of trying to filter the smoke anyway. The smoke is the part that gives you the feeling. If you put a full air filter on the front end of a cigarette and took a clean breath of air why the fuck would you buy cigarettes. I get a light filter makes it less harsh but jeez

[–] [email protected] 11 points 8 months ago

The filter is there to catch big stuff that'll make you gag. The microscopic ash particles are what you want to inhale, not the 2mm wide chunks

[–] [email protected] 4 points 8 months ago

Based. Just get some papers and roll that shit yourself, like a joint. Put a roach in there to keep that tobacco out of your mouth, good to go.
