Person A: Swag Epic Cool
Person B: 1. The Industrial Revolution and its consequences have been a disaster for the human race. They have greatly increased the life-expectancy of those of us who live in “advanced” countries, but they have destabilized society, have made life unfulfilling, have subjected human beings to indignities, have led to widespread psychological suffering (in the Third World to physical suffering as well) and have inflicted severe damage on the natural world. The continued development of technology will worsen the situation. It will certainly subject human beings to greater indignities and inflict greater damage on the natural world, it will probably lead to greater social disruption and psychological suffering, and it may lead to increased physical suffering even in “advanced” countries. 2. The industrial-technological system may survive or it may break down. If it survives, it MAY eventually achieve a low level of physical and psychological suffering, but only after passing through a long and very painful period of adjustment and only at the cost of permanently reducing human beings and many other living organisms to engineered products and mere cogs in the social machine. Furthermore, if the system survives, the consequences will be inevitable: There is no way of reforming or modifying the system so as to prevent it from depriving people of dignity and autonomy.

Get the Cool Pics Bro mug.The process of quitting an addiction in a method not so extreme as the process of cold turkey. Instead of an intense and sudden stop of said addictive substance, one will lessen the quantity of said substance over a course of non-specified time. Cool turkey enables a person to maintain said addiction whilst also retaining a small percentage of mental/physical dependancy.
Cool turkey in general assists in the process of quitting any kind of addiction. Cool turkey enables the user to set the limits of addiction as long as it is a lesser amount than the previous set goal, or the original amount of usage for starting out.
Cool turkey lessens the effects of withdrawal symptoms for any addiction by easing the process, therefore making this method the penultimate choice for quitting any addiction.

No buddy, I'm going to cool turkey it. I'm going to smoke half a pack a day then a quarter pack a day. Once i can handle that i will decrease to one cigarette a day, and eventually stop smoking all together. It is a lot easier than you think
