- bowsamic 3y agoWhy are you comparing bread to asbestos? Also yes people should be allowed to smoke
- ryan_lane 3y ago> Also yes people should be allowed to smoke Yes, assuming that I never have to inhale any of your smoke. Even outdoors. I don't care what you do to your body, but I do care what you do to mine.
- XorNot 3y agoBread is an absolutely massive number of calories for what it is. In a pastrami sandwich, about 50% of the calories will be from the bread alone. People can eat bread, but when they wonder why it's hard to lose weight they tend to ignore this unconsidered contributor (conversely if you're working in a field or at hard labour job, breads a pretty great, compact calorie source).
- romanovcode 3y ago> but when they wonder why it's hard to lose weight Dude but it's their problem. You can get heroin and crack on the streets right now. I do not want things to be banned just because some dumbass is doing it wrong. Literally reminds me of the anti-cannabis activist who's biggest argument was that "I smoked some weed, went home and they said my relative died and I laughed. Now I think nobody should ever use cannabis and it should be banned completely."
- XorNot 3y agoDude literally no one is calling for a bread or alcohol ban in this thread. You have been complaining about a study which suggested that people who care about their health might want to re-evaluate their risk appetite in light of updated data.
