You's Gon' Die If You Keep Smoking
Says the ashtray. Yes this ashtray actually calculates how many days you've shaved off your life by lighting up. A complex sensor weighs the amount of ash in the tray and calculates the sum of your life based off your own personal stats. The number is prominently displayed on the bottom of the ashtray. If that wasn't enough, the whole thing gets blacker if you keep smoking.

heh, I'm gonna die anyway. At least I'll enjoy the ride. You can have my adult diaper years, I don't want em.

Actually, your "Adult Diaper years" will just come sooner as smoking ages your body considerably faster than is normal. The problem isn't dying really, it's living through the cancer, which however potent it often is, still takes a fairly long time to kill you. BUt hey, at least you'll be able to enjoy those years! Years of dignity up in smoke as people have to feed you should the cancer metasticize to your brain. Years where you could stll be half way attractive spent looking like you're two decades older than you are supposed to be. And lets not forget how enjoyable it is to watch the people who so dearly love you have to make the heart wrenching decisions like when to pull your tube or how much they will have to give up to pay for your respirator. I dont really mind people smoking, but don't lie to yourself by saying at least I'll enjoy it and damn sure dont lie to me.

I'm gonna start smoking just so I have a reason to use this thing.

They should have something like that, except for people who live in polluted cities. Like, a timer for their life everytime they step out of their house and breathe air. Or, they should have one when you are driving. See how close you come to dying every day. I can go on forever. People are lame. Live life.

Jesus christ smoookey, I'm not even a smoker but even I saw that as an idiotic remark.
"don't lie to me"? that has to be the nastiest bit self righteous assholery I've heard all week. just go ahead and put that foot in your mouth and save us all the trouble.
