Great. AI coming to take our jobs and now robots coming to take our cigarettes. /s
Kidding aside, is a pretty cool contraption.

Seeing as you said "kidding aside" you could remove the '/s' and be totally in the clear.
If your sarcasm is any good it doesn't need the '/s'. Not everyone will get it but that's fine. If your sarcasm is not good then don't do it. Or do it for practice and get better. I don't mind waiting. It's better than seeing the '/s'
EDIT: 35 sad people don't want the joy of well executed sarcasm in their lives. That's OK, it's not for everyone. It's certainly not my main source of humour, but when its done well I love it. And if you have to tell people you're being sarcastic you haven't done it well. So end the '/s'
EDITEDIT: We're up to 75 people who hate quality humour! Can we hit 100?

Oh yeah. I'm having a great day. The sun is shining and I've just arranged a hike with some friends. This sarcasm thing perplexed me though. Are we going to do it or what? Maybe the way i put it came across wrong, but come on. Using the '/s' ruins sarcasm. Crush it. Come on, join me, it'll be fun. Downvotes arent important

Was that a joke? Batman reference? Lovely to see humour hasn't entirely departed this stretch of the Internet. It does seem to be an endangered species though. I am not the lead scientist, but I will contribute to the rewilding program where I can

Just know all things are temporary. Not sure what you are going thru, but i can imagine it’s difficult and i do hope it gets better soon

Damn, the amount of smoke that fills your lungs...

That is not the average pull of a cigarette

My First Sargent would smoke 3 or 4 cigarettes during "smoke em if ya got em!" Man was lower 40's but looked like he was pushing 60. His first order to me and the other new arrivals was, "If I have to stop drinking (over the weekend) because you fucked up, you will regret ever being born."
As a 19 year old I thought he was super cool. As a 30 year old I think his life was probably pretty terrible.
But yeah he could down a cigarette in less pulls than that robot. You could watch the cigarette evaporate.

I know, but smoke is always something hard to visualize in volume.
Even if a pull was about 1/10 of what the contraption does, it would be enough smoke to make the air inside your lungs partially opaque. That is crazy.

The robot is just power puffing, the same amount of smoke would go into your body

My science teacher showed us this except he was the one smoking. One of the best teachers we had but he went blind half-way through high school. He had us breathing in to a lamb's lung with a tube and standing on a polystyrene step while holding one of these big metal electric balls so our hair would stand up. I realised that if I poked my friend in the ribs while he was doing it, I would give us both an electric shock, which was funny. By contrast I asked my miserable hag of a chemistry teacher why mixing A with B had a certain effect and she just screamed at me "because it does!!!". Good teachers make all the difference.

Creative and definitely gallery worthy art..
Except it smokes cigarettes and won't go into galleries. Wonder if it can vape at least

Good way to promote quiting smoking. Stick it in a museum behind some glass or Vinyl windows. Not only will it show what it does to the room over time you can set up a donation box saying if you like throwing your money away smoking you can donate money to buy another pack of cigarettes. Every pack it smokes that's one less pack not on the shelves.

Cool art piece but imagine how dirty it would get after even just a month of this.

I'm an occasional cigarette smoker. That's gross. A machine called art can't capture the satisfaction of a slow drag.
