Actual ADVANTAGES of smoking & drinking!!

I suppose if you are reading this article you fall in the category of smokers who are tired & sick of people giving them advices about "Quit Smoking".... so here's are a few comebacks for you ;)

These are medically proved advantages of smoking (lol!):-

1. Smoking lowers risk of knee-replacement surgery

While smokers might go broke buying a pack of cigarettes, they can at least save money by avoiding knee-replacement surgery. Surprising results from a new study have revealed that men who smoke had less risk of undergoing total joint replacement surgery than those who never smoked.

2. Smoking lowers risk of obesity

Smoking — and, in particular, the nicotine in tobacco smoke — is an appetite suppressant. This has been known for centuries, dating back to indigenous cultures in America in the pre-Columbus era. Tobacco companies caught on by the 1920s and began targeting women with the lure that smoking would make them thinner.
(Alright looks like this will surely promote smoking XD)

3. Smoking lowers risk of death after some heart attacks

Compared with non-smokers, smokers who have had heart attacks seem to have lower mortality rates and more favorable responses to two kinds of therapy to remove plaque from their arteries: fibrinolytic therapy, which is basically medication; and angioplasty, which removes the plaque by inserting balloons or stents into the arteries.



4. Lowers risk of uclers-
Risk of ulcerative colitis(an intestinal disease) has been frequently shown to be reduced by smokers on a dose-dependent basis
Smokers are less often affected by aphthous ulcer.(that annoying ulcer! Gotta hate that thing! )


CAUTION: The above post was meant to be satirical even though it didn't seem to be. I personally discourage smoking because when you smoke it's not just your life you're destroying... but also your loved one's

After going through these slides you would have thought "Ha! You're faking it! There's no way these are hand painted", so to convince you I decided to post links to the official websites of the real masterminds behind these masterpieces.

Hey guys its me raj and welcome to my first post!

I would tell, in this post, the reason why I started this blog. As a teen, I just love to surf and many times I came across some really mind-blowing things... I mean seriously I found stuff that might blow the shit out of you! And I always wanted to share it with my friends, relatives. So I used to put in on my facebook, twitter and all sorts of things. But then I thought what if I start a blog that would showcase all my bookmarks for the world to see!

So here it is! rajsbookmarks.blogspot.com
