I’m simply going to assume this is trolling

I’m pretty sure the thing you replied to was sarcasm, but also second hand cig smoke on a closed car (edit: yes train car, lol) would really suck

I was replying to your comment about “second-hand crack” - which is monumentally dumb

Yeah it was a pretty blatant joke, as was probably the one above it

Car?

Let’s assume you mean a subway car.
I actually ride the subway and have never experienced or witnessed someone smoking a cigarette on the train. Sometimes they carry a smelly half-smoked cigarette, which is stinky.
Sometimes there are other unpleasant smells from other people. But that’s life in a city, proximity to other people.

Even if you have to encounter “second hand smoke” during your 10-minute ride, I promise you, that’s not going to instantly give you cancer. Really.

I mean I feel like you are here seeking an argument about something folks were largely joking about so I’m not really gonna entertain it

These fear-mongering suburbanites are serious and think that crack-smoking “drug pushers” are plentiful on transit.

Telling a joke isn’t trolling, you just can’t discern one from a serious comment. It’s a Saturday on Halloween weekend, Phils are playing, positive vibes.

A “blatant” joke (you should really look that word up) is only a joke if it’s funny/identifiable as such.

You literally said “Up- and down- votes tell the story on Reddit. 💋” in another sub during this argument and there’s about a 20 vote differential here between you asking someone to explain a lighthearted comment and my sarcasm.

Here: No, I do not think SEPTA is hotboxed with crack
