      Place the scooped out baked potato flesh into a

      House Seasoning and mix and mash to combine using a fork. Stuff the potato skin with the filling. Bake until heated through, about 10 minutes.

    • @CvntyPussyWIllow
      @CvntyPussyWIllow 7 років тому +116

      Rockey It is just a case of bad luck and genetics. There are plentiful of people who smoke everyday and are still old without any conditions. It just improves the chances of getting it and she is maybe the one who wasn't caught up in it. To sum up, it is not the immediate cause it may just help the process.

    • @woodgrooves
      @woodgrooves 7 років тому +36

      Rockey Look, its bad luck. Possibly to do with genetics and stuff. Smoking isnt a guarantee to get it, but it increases the chances of getting it. One of my mums friends died of liver cancer, and she didn't smoke. Smoking causes all kinds of cancers. This is some of Hamilton's lyrics.

      @azuregriffin1116 7 років тому

      Something to the effect of circa 1 percent of weed smokers go on to heroin, although I don't know about heroin smokers that came from weed. Basically, if you start doing weed you're unlikely to start doing heroin.

    • @freshrockpapa-e7799
      @freshrockpapa-e7799 7 років тому

      It's also unlikely that you start doing heroin if you don't smoke weed. What's your point? What we are discussing here is if you have more chance of doing hard drugs if you do weed before, not that the chance itself is low regardless of that condition. How can you possibly miss the point by this much?

I just really want to know why so many people has allergy's?

    • @freshrockpapa-e7799
      @freshrockpapa-e7799 7 років тому +6

      Because they weren't exposed to these chemical structures when they were young and now their immune system doesn't recognize them, so it assumes they are bad and tries to block them from entering your body. That's why richer people have more allergies. Their environment when they are young is literally too clean.

      It isn't an oxymoron, u moron. They aren't antonyms that directly contradict each other. If you actually think about it, randomization and control go hand-in-hand to produce the most accurate results in a scientific experiment. (a direct correlation)

    We did sophomore speeches earlier this year and almost everyone used some study for their "data" where they claimed something was a cause when in reality it was just correlated for some other reason
    you did a really good job explaining how it actually works

    • @JM-us3fr
      @JM-us3fr 7 років тому +6

      Rekt Gaming Stating that a fallacy exists isn't a fallacy. It's when you dismiss the legitimacy of a conclusion based on a single fallacy that it becomes a fallacy

      Anti's destroy everywhere they go, because even when there isn't a damned thing related to the group they've dedicated themselves to fighting (feminists, their version of "SJWs," whatever) they STILL have to try to twist it in somehow. Even when it doesn't make a shred of sense. There's zero connection? Let me throw a group that _also_ isn't connected at all (free thinkers, there are probably more "logical free thinker" anti-feminists than feminists, at least on UA-cam where anti's outnumber their opposition until you define the opposition broadly) and insist they'd ask how to use this for that.
      Grow up and get a life. Not everything is about some group you hate. Maybe if people could stick to fighting things where they need fought and make sense they could be taken seriously, but neither the _subset of_ feminism complained about nor the anti's know how/when to stop.
