People are becoming more and more stupid because they are letting the instant gratification of giving into vapid wastes of time like social media, gaming, and consuming junk media (which is nearly all media now) turn them into addicts by the companies who just want to sell them more crap they don’t need.

Not sure if its common or not, but out of the people I have known, my best friend and 1 ex girlfriend have this. A**holes to play games with.

I seriously don’t believe this is a universal trait. I think those who hold it want to make to seem far more common than it is because those who engage in it are terrible people.

Not at all!!

The thing is, rebooting machines does solve a lot of crap

Your doctor should not be telling your insurance company that you’re a smoker. That’s an egregious ethics violation. If you don’t trust him/her not to, you need another doctor.

God,this. Being labelled as an addict or a “crazy” is terrifying and can jeopardise all medical care.

very true. it would be hard to prove. however, knowing insurance companies, they would do everything they could to NOT pay.

The worst part is that they won’t deny you coverage. They will allow you to pay premiums forever but when you call and say “hey, guys, I’ve been diagnosed with lung cancer and need surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy,” they will pull out that picture of you from your Facebook account from 8 years ago or some…

No. That seems like a violation of your privacy. Do you live in the USA?

Counterpoint-insurance companies are bastard-coated bastards with a creamy bastard filling. If you lie about this, come up with lung cancer, and they can prove your lie, they may try to deny coverage. Dunno if they can though.

What if you just started smoking the day before you saw the doctor? What if you started smoking within 30 days of your doctor visit? How can they prove you smoked longer? What if your roommate smokes in the same room you are in and you get second hand lung cancer? How would they ever find out you smoked if you never…

I know two people personally who lie about smoking because they don’t want that information to get back to their insurance companies. One of them even has a company plan, but then he says “Well what if i lose my job and my smoking status goes into the system, and then when I have to buy Obamacare it costs $600 a…

Is that $30 a month worth people lying about it so they don’t take a hit on their paycheck? That financial slap is patronizing at best, contributing to a health crisis at worst.

Around 13 percent of smokers keep their habit a secret from their doctors.

Because patient confidentiality is a myth if you’re a kid?

What?! lol Why are you embarassed to be sexually active? I thought you were going to say you lied and said you WERE sexually active because you were too embarassed to admit that you were not.

This is true. I am very lucky that both candidates have exactly the same experience as well!

I only care about keeping out Mexicans, making America great again, and rounding up all the Muslims and putting them in the hole from Silence of the lambs. I also love guns. And think women are dirty- whore -bare footed bitches.

Interesting that she’d been using the personal server as sec of state for a year when her email above is dated 3 days after Obama’s first inauguration.
