“I Only Smoke When I Drink,” Says Virtue Signaling Alcoholic

In a conversation overheard on the patio of O’Bannon’s Taphouse, Texas A&M University junior and functional alcoholic Chase Gaffney proudly declared that he only smokes when he drinks. Sources indicate that, while Gaffney limits his sober nicotine consumption, he gets plastered every night of the week.

Following his quick smoke break, Gaffney returned to his booth within the bar. He then  expressed concern that his roommate is addicted to nicotine.

“I really worry about that guy,” Gaffney said while consuming his thirteenth beer. “I saw him bum a cigarette earlier this week, and I know he hit someone’s vape once at Good Bull. I just really don’t want him to do something he regrets.” Two weeks ago, Gaffney fell through a wall at a house party after ingesting three Four Loko pregames and seven Bacardi shots.

When confronted with the logic that only smoking when you drink only works if you do not drink all the time, Gaffney flipped off the person and put his cigarette out on their arm.
