Unfortunately the way the health care system works, we all pay for the problems caused by fat people, alcoholics, and cigarette smokers. So thanks Obama, thanks a lot (8).

Is caffeine addiction just when you need it to wake up? Or more like nicotine where you just have baller cravings?

I drink a lot of coffee cause I like the taste but I have never felt like I needed caffeine. Also hate drinking soda.

You could use low doses of theophylline to help decrease withdrawal symptoms. That would be stupid though.

Usually it's not a problem waking up as much as you'll get little headaches a few hours into the day (usually a little after whenever you traditionally have your daily cup)

So I got this jacket, its an XS and it has an elastic banded hem, but the hem is 19" across. WTF is the point of the elastic if the hem is wider than anyones waist who is going to be wearing an XS??

Could a tailor taper a nylon jacket with a banded hem?

Random fashion thought here is **** brands that bother making XS and then make them fit like S or M. Label sizes properly so you don't get my hopes up.

Actually, there was a study done that found that smokers actually cost the healthcare system *less* since they die rather quickly at a relatively young age.

Here's a fun smoking fact: "Two out of three Japanese men smoke (compared to one out of three American men), yet the rate of lung cancer in Japan is the lowest in the industrialized world! This is a result of the low level of fat in the Japanese diet." -Ray Kurzweil's 10% Solution ftw.

lol, but they do have a superior diet, though. However, this suffers a bit from correlation does not imply causation. However, I still think anti-smoking regulations are stupid. Especially the ones in NYC which are pretty draconian. either way.. Smoking to look cool is ******* highschool level ****, I mean wow. I think if you smoke you're a weak douchebag or just did it because your friends got you pressured into it in highschool. Most addicts probably got addicted in highschool which is exactly the age tobacco companies want to get you addicted around since its harder to quit after that long of a period. They pretty much prey on adolescents.
