I do. Right in front of it. Fortunately I'm not a heavy smoker, but my fan blades do pickup more crud then if I didn't. I have personally seen the insides of PCs who sat in front of heavy smokers and it's certainly not pretty.

I was upset by this line on this image but then reading the whole thing I realized that it was meant to be dishonest in-order to make fun of the dishonest anti-pot propaganda.

Is the 4k chem compounds line used against pot in some other media I am unaware of?

No but there have been times when the computer smokes near me. Then I had to dump it and get a new one. I just can't see my future with a smoker. :(

I get a lot of laptops from Montreal, most of which reek of cigaret smoke - while I have no evidence that the smoke damages the PC, I have seen some disgusting brownish stuff building up around the fan which I can only guess is tar. The life expectancy in Quebec cant be more than 60.

I used to work at a Panasonic factory. I guess a lot of Japanese businessmen gave their family members factory jobs, because there were lots of Japanese people who grouped together during breaks. They all chain-smoked. Every. Single. One.

I also purchased a used Super Famicom w/ games from a Japanese eBay seller. The system, controllers, and every game cartridge reeked of cigarette smoke.

Japanese people are (were?) hardcore smokers.

People still smoke? lawl. The 1950's called, they want their cigarettes back.

People still try to force their beliefs on other people? Lawl. The entire history of mankind just called, they want their biggoted attitude back
