Have you seen this smoking baby? Of course you have. You probably had to blow off all your Memorial Day weekend plans because you couldn’t pull yourself away from the YouTube clip of that little pudgy bastard puffing away like he’s Marlon effing Brando. Now, there’s a story about some woman who is going to help the two-year-old smoker kick the habit. Here’s an idea: just take the cigarette out of the kid’s mouth and don’t buy him any more. Easy. Done. Let’s move on. What? There’s a 30-story-deep sinkhole in Guatemala? WTF?
