My lungs are more important than Polar Bears

So I have Exercise Induced Bronchial Spasms, for this I use a rescue inhaler in case an attack sets in. I was diagnosed with this condition about 20 or so years ago. For that time the inhaler has done it’s trick, usually take it usually 20 minutes before I work out, etc. Well they changed the inhaler propellant to make it “more environmentally friendly” but honestly a cow fart does more damage to the ozone than my inhaler and I think my lungs are a little more important. I noticed the change the first time I used it, the change I noticed was a full on attack setting in. In the past when that happened, I would take the inhaler and it would clear within seconds, now it takes minutes. On top of that, inhalers went from being $10 to some are about $100, depending on your insurance. So now I have to adjust how many puffs I need to take to prevent an attack from happening. So, with all of that, I would like to show my thanks

    I find that melting styrofoam on my grill opens up the ol’ bronchials. Also, it makes a hippie cry.
