U.S.—Health experts have been recommending we all stay six feet away from each other, but that can be hard to accomplish. It's natural and human to want to socialize with people. But a new study suggests there is one surefire way to increase social distancing: taking up vaping.


quote:

According to a new study, people are much more likely to socially distance themselves from you if you're puffing some phat vape clouds.

"Our data shows that vaping is more effective than any other method," said Dr. Hank Cloud of MIT. "Even vapers really don't want to hang out with other vapers. Just bust out your vape pen and start puffing away, and you'll find those around you will give you well over six feet of space."


quote:

Other strategies that are similarly effective include asking if anyone wants to play one of your designer board games, talking about Star Trek, and wearing an Antifa T-shirt. But, experts say, vaping is still the preferred method for anyone who wants to get a little social distance from everyone around them.

It blows my mind how many people here can read something and not immediately realize it’s satire.

If they legalized marijuana in all 50 states, this covid shite would be over in 2 months

I like to wake up and take the WRX down to QuikTrip for a Rockstar Recovery Lemonade and a hit of Juul Menthol. What can I say? I'm extreme to the max.

I can't tell you how many articles I started reading this year where I was laughing, realizing it was satire, only to find out that it wasn't.

"Black woman apologizes for playing blacker woman in movie" could have gone either way.

You'd have a point in years past. This year, you truly can't tell.

Now, obviously un this case the OP gave a heads up that's it's from Babylonbee. But in general, that line truly is blurred these days.

Perfect example. 2020 has countless headlines that seem like they come straight from the bee.

The Bee and The Onion are now more credible than CNN and Yahoo.

I’m pretty sure, at this point, that Yahoo is left wing satire.

I heard an interview with someone from Snopes.com on the radio a few weeks ago. Until they said who'd they'd been talking to at the end, I seriously thought this person was some sort of far left activist, like a spokesman for the Communist Party USA or something.

The only way to tell the difference these days is knowing if the website is satirical or real news. Clown world

I mean I get where you’re coming from to some degree, but at the same time I’ve never heard of Babylon Bee and just applied some basic critical thinking skills to realize this wasn’t real.

I bet you could get some people really fired up by posting this over on the Poli board.
