Rubes by Leigh Rubin for November 13, 2019

Who would have thought that cigarette smoking (whilst extremely unhealthy & taxed to the hilt) was likely to be more healthy (questionable) than vaping?

Cats Eye Stephen King.Made me quit smoking, boy!

Snapchat

What a MICKEY MOUSE idea !

VAPE?

Probably more effective than some of the so-called treatments out there…

They tried that with me and donuts. I use a stick now.

Is that Moe?

I have a sign in my room that says “ANYONE SMOKING ANYTHING WILL BE CONSIDERED TO BE ON FIRE AND APPROPRIATE MEASURES WILL BE TAKEN”.

What he needs is a snappy comeback.

We currently are feeding peanut butter to a mouse who manages to trigger the trap without getting caught, then licks it off the bait-paddle. I’m seriously considering whether to buy an infrared camera to catch it in the act so as to see how the heck it does that !

I and my wife once visited a relative who was in rehab for drinking.

Before we could see the relative, we had to take part in a round table discussion on addiction.

I said that I had once been addicted to cigarettes, and managed to quit, but it was a big struggle for about 3 weeks.

A young man sitting across from me was heroine addict, who was currently smoking, but was off of heroine.

He told me that he was impressed by my being able to quit smoking.

When I asked him why he thought that, he said that he had already quit both smoking and heroine a couple of times, and he was convinced that quitting smoking was more difficult that quitting heroine.

At least he isn’t using a guillotine.

Or one could try the method like in “Cat’s Eye”, buy Stephan King…
