- would that doctor be, by chance, one of those who told you how good for you smoking was?
My doctor, who’s really quite kind and decent and has probably saved my life (or at the very least has made it livable for me and bearable for my family and friends), not only made me quit drinking and smoking, but she also strongly lobbies against: raw oysters, sun exposure, excessive acousticovisual stimulation, staying up late, dating stupid people, too much time on Tumblr, coffee, caffeine, anti-perspirant, and certain types of rapid breathing.
I wish Schlitz had made more of an effort to reach her.
Update: “But you don’t drink water like beer” is a pretty blunt observation. I love it!
