More proof that smoking restricts blood flow to the brain. If any were needed.
And the ties between addictive behavior and conspiracy theorists
The moon landing was faked.
NASA got Kubrick to direct, and being a perfectionist, he insisted they shoot on location.
They'll save money on catering.
Cause nothing screams "sound judgement" like a nicotine addiction.
I love when people are like "if you get a windfall of money you'll probably go bankrupt. Look at the statistics from lottery winners, 70% of them end up broke."
Ah yes, a subset of the population whose only common traits are that they gamble and make objectively terrible financial decisions. Obviously this group should be the benchmark for the financial literacy and money management of the general population.
No, winners aren't all dumbasses. This post is smart and important to understand the whole thing.
True, though let's not act as if the family and friends constantly asking for money or expectating it, old acquaintances suddenly claiming you abused/assaulted/scammed them knowing you'll just settle out of court to get them to fuck off, haven't happened even to fiscally responsible people as well.
There's more than just bad financial literacy with some of them, as not all lottery winners are always broke gamblers. The majority are, but not all. So the fact that almost every single person loses it all in a couple years should indicate that it still has massive potential to make your life harder even if you know what you're doing and don't succumb to massive overspending.
I think I could actually lay low pretty easy. Everything I'd buy people know I've been saving up for for a while. And they all take time to get even if you have the money so it wouldn't be all at once.
Plus my "dream [property/vehicle/hobby items/etc]" are all fairly atainable. Like theres a certain classic vehicle I want that usually goes for 20-30k just the configuration I want is a little difficult to find.
Not all states allow you to collect winnings anonymously. I doubt your relatives are actively monitoring lottery winners, but there may be some sleazy, ambulance chasing lawyers that do and would "preemptively" reach out to family and friends to let them know they're happy to represent them if they "just so happen" to suffer any damages from you.
Well now I wonder if there’s a control for that in the studies. Would I make good or poor choices in the same situation?
I’d still roll the dice.
A used heroin needle poll however, that's how you get the opinions of our greatest minds
This is just like the tip cups that say "Star Trek" vs "Star Wars" or whatever. It's not about the actual choices. It's about getting people to put stuff in one or the other.
This question gets people to put their butts in the disposal, rather than on the ground.
Also, I don't believe the moon landing was faked, but I would totally put my cigarette butt in that one. Get my butt vote, conspiracy nuts. Who cares.
The actual label is the least factor in where I put it.
(I don't know why my brain feels the need to clarify this to strangers on the internet, but for the record, I don't actually smoke)
Glad you clarified youre not smoking, thats imaginary bonus points for you.
Do more smokers think the moon landing is fake?
Do people who think the moon landing was fake smoke more?
Are people who think the moon landing is fake more likely to smoke?
Is "fake" just closer to the smokers?
I bet people are putting them in the "fake" side as a joke.
100%, id totally put my butt in the fake side if I were a smoker for laughs
Did they paint the sign after letting it fill up?
Was the image photoshopped to show the "survey" text?
This would be a damn good way to get data in the 60s though.
Do people who believe the moonlanding is fake smoke more cigarets than others?
What if a couple chain smokers are responsible for all the no votes?
Did they just have to empty the other bin sooner?
Stupid people smoke
Majority of people believe the Moon landing was real. Conspiracy Georg, who smokes 100 packs a day was an outlier and should not have been counted.
this is more of a study of what percentage of smokers here have a sense of humor. People don't take these things seriously for the most part, voting no at least brings a moment of joy if you consider it humorous.
One of the biggest proponents of the moon landing being real is that the USSR believed it happened. You can imagine the amount of sensors and cameras pointed at the moon to denounce the US if it was fake. Especially while at the height of the space race. Whoever got to the moon first would be the ones to claim it.
It's because of the lizard people controlling both states at the time
What really gets me is the comments here revealing how little Lemmy users understand the average human
I love people, always willing to commit to the bit
Now I need to take up smoking so I can vote
That's why you need to be 18 to get the vote.
This might be a viable strategy to avoid the littering of cigarette butts.
That's not what unanimous means 🤔
Ha, look at these idiots who still think the moon is real.
It’s amazing that we had the video and image technology to fake the moon landing back in the 60’s, but we still don’t have the technical ability to fake a cigarette butt poll on the internet over half a century later.
Were is this exactly? I'll start chain smoking for this
I think I saw this one with a different poll
