That's a fucking hilarious retort, but also, it's a statement that becomes immediately untrue as soon as it is directed at an individual.

The pizza does look terrible though. So this come back about dying is pretty lame.

It's a smoker's thing. Opening a new pack, there's 20 cigarettes all facing the same way. Find one that speaks to you, or choose the same location each pack, and flip it so the nicotine is up and the rest are filters. That's the lucky. If you need something good to happen, you've got a little bit extra luck waiting for you.

Yeah cos it's real lucky when you're not paying attention and light the filter end

I'm guessing the lucky one gives you 5% less probability of cancer

I'm the wrong person to ask. I'm not superstitious, heck, I'm not even a little stitious.

Is that a reference to the casino scammers video?

I will now harass every smoker I know and ask them if they flip a cigarette.

500 Lucky Cigarettes

(Someone want to form a band under this name?)

This article is just an aggressive, vaguely AI-flavored smoking advertisement

[–] rain_worl@lemmy.world 1 points 3 days ago

here's how to smoke a cigarette! note, however, that smoking is bad

[–] FartsWithAnAccent@fedia.io 8 points 3 days ago

I think it's a reference to a lucky cigarette

[–] brbposting@sh.itjust.works 3 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Nothing conclusive from a quick search, which one?
