    Surgical tech here. Almost every time we run into one of those “oh fuck our patient is about to die” moments, they’re either a smoker, obese, or both.

    Even ignoring the lungs, smokers’ organs all look like shit. When we’re doing a laparoscopic case (tiny incisions, camera in the abdomen) the entire inside of their abdomen has this diseased yellow-brown hue compared to a non-smoker.

    That shit REALLY fucks you up internally.
