bloggeries is Jun 06, 2008 05:16PM curious what has worse long term effects: Smoking a pack a day or pounding a six pack every night?
topsurf thinks Jun 06, 2008 05:18PM you'd have to consider which is a worse way to die...by lung cancer or by liver failure?
HighDef says Jun 06, 2008 05:19PM a six pack of beer is relatively harmless except for the calories. Smoking a pack a day will kill a person for sure.
Snorkelbuddy says Jun 06, 2008 05:20PM it depends on the 6-pack; Bud will kill you sooner than Sam Adams
RohanPinto says Jun 06, 2008 05:21PM booze will get you into the AA, smokes will need you to take a smog test if u need to walk the streets in "global warming" land
khook says Jun 06, 2008 05:21PM I think a pack - but it also depends on how quickly you pound the beer!
yomike says Jun 06, 2008 05:21PM smokes are worse -- affects you and the people around you... with a tolerance for alcohol, the six may not be so bad
bloggeries Jun 06, 2008 05:22PM Thing is liver rejuvenates I don't think lungs do. They clean themselves out but very slow and cardio isn't exactly associated with smokers
daynah says Jun 06, 2008 05:24PM well neither is good for you. Smoking would affect the lungs first. And drinking would affect your liver (I think)
marywallace thinks Jun 06, 2008 05:26PM alcohol kills brain cells, leaving pock holes in brain. smoking kills lung cells. choose your poison carefully, both impact happy life.
gutterkitty says Jun 06, 2008 05:27PM I smoke but don't drink. And I think a pack a day is worse. *cough cough*
bloggeries Jun 06, 2008 05:28PM This was just a question btw I don't actually smoke a pack a day or drink a pack a day FWIW
ThatDude thinks Jun 06, 2008 05:54PM people are skirting the answer by saying both. We all know neither is "healthy".
lmacvittie says Jun 06, 2008 07:17PM it doesn't matter, life is terminal anyway. Everyone dies, not everyone really lives.
KDFrawg says Jun 07, 2008 03:50AM his mother smoked four packs a day and drank a bottle of gin a day for year, then died suddenly of unknow causes.
danwest Jun 08, 2008 10:50AM It's kind of like asking "which is worse, a bullet in the head or a knife in the heart?"
But you only live once!
