More proof that smoking restricts blood flow to the brain. If any were needed.

[–] BossDj@lemm.ee 14 points 11 months ago

And the ties between addictive behavior and conspiracy theorists

[–] EvilTwin@lemmy.world 100 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago) (2 children)

The moon landing was faked.

NASA got Kubrick to direct, and being a perfectionist, he insisted they shoot on location.

[–] Sanity_in_Moderation@lemmy.world 6 points 10 months ago

They'll save money on catering.

[–] OutlierBlue@lemmy.ca 56 points 11 months ago (1 children)

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.

[–] GoosLife@lemmy.world 33 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago) (1 children)

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)

[–] tomi000@lemmy.world 14 points 11 months ago

Glad you clarified youre not smoking, thats imaginary bonus points for you.

[–] brygphilomena@lemmy.world 43 points 11 months ago (6 children)

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?

[–] Slovene@feddit.nl 35 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I bet people are putting them in the "fake" side as a joke.

[–] bitsplease@lemmy.ml 19 points 11 months ago

100%, id totally put my butt in the fake side if I were a smoker for laughs

[–] saigot@lemmy.ca 16 points 11 months ago

Did they paint the sign after letting it fill up?

[–] buzziebee@lemmy.world 4 points 10 months ago

Was the image photoshopped to show the "survey" text?

[–] theangryseal@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

This would be a damn good way to get data in the 60s though.

[–] RepulsiveDog4415@feddit.de 2 points 10 months ago

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?

[–] fubbernuckin@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago

Did they just have to empty the other bin sooner?

[–] cooopsspace@infosec.pub 35 points 11 months ago

Stupid people smoke

[–] gatelike@feddit.de 23 points 10 months ago

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.

[–] niemcycle@lemmy.world 23 points 10 months ago

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.

[–] Piemanding@sh.itjust.works 22 points 10 months ago (1 children)

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.

[–] Rubanski@lemm.ee 4 points 10 months ago

It's because of the lizard people controlling both states at the time

[–] Jax@sh.itjust.works 16 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I mean, this is a great way to determine if smokers are idiots.

Looking like the majority is a yes.

[–] yamapikariya@lemmyfi.com 2 points 7 months ago

Well actually the majority is a no

[–] weedwhacking@lemmy.world 12 points 11 months ago

I love people, always willing to commit to the bit

[–] TimewornTraveler@lemm.ee 11 points 10 months ago

What really gets me is the comments here revealing how little Lemmy users understand the average human

[–] dan1101@lemm.ee 11 points 11 months ago
[–] Ubettawerk@lemmy.blahaj.zone 10 points 11 months ago

Now I need to take up smoking so I can vote

[–] manucode@infosec.pub 8 points 11 months ago

This might be a viable strategy to avoid the littering of cigarette butts.

That's not what unanimous means 🤔

[–] Slinky5737@infosec.pub 6 points 11 months ago

Ha, look at these idiots who still think the moon is real.

[–] TinfoilBeanieTech@lemmy.world 5 points 10 months ago

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.

[–] FreshLight@sh.itjust.works 4 points 11 months ago

Were is this exactly? I'll start chain smoking for this

[–] Kusimulkku@lemm.ee 2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I think I saw this one with a different poll

Cause nothing screams "sound judgement" like a nicotine addiction.

[–] superduperenigma@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

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.
