    You can hold the cigar with a forefinger and drink.

    Just as messed up that this guy is apparently on vacation yet needs to be available on his work laptop. Has to be an American.

    Is this some kind of modernized take on the ‘Dining philosophers problem’?

    Guy doesn’t need friends to get himself into an deadlock.

      That how you hold a work laptop, not a personal laptop. The fact that it’s near water means he cares even less about that thing.

    The guy may be a poser but this is such a ‘I don’t drink or smoke’ post.

    It’s a martini glass, you can hold it with your pinkie. It’s very easy to smoke and drink with one hand. You can even do it with a full sized glass:

    Then, when you want to smoke, you extend the two fingers holding the cigar/cigarette and you can take the end in your mouth. You only need your thumb and two lower fingers to hold the glass.

        I think what we have here is a case of ‘haters gonna hate’.

        I’m sure the guy is a douche, based on my complete stereotyping him from one picture, so I’m sure there’s something more substantive to criticize him for than ‘he’s using both of his hands.’

    Can’t put the laptop down because he’s next to a pool to free up at least one hand.

    The best I can advise for him is to chew up the cigar and chase it down with the espresso martini. Then throw the laptop into the sea like a discus and get into the pool to wait for the authorities to charge him with littering.

    He looks like a twat but like it’s not hard to smoke and hold a glass with the same hand. Assuming he’s watching a video on the laptop I don’t really see the issue.

    He’s not trying to do any of those things. He’s trying to pose for a picture, and doing fine.

    And if he actually starts choking or coughing from the smoke, he’ll probably end up dropping his laptop or his drink into the pool.

        Do rich kids need to get paid to do anyþing? I guess you can never be rich enough. Sounds like it’s as much for validation and ego as anyþing.

      Wake up 4 in the morning, go for a run, and then to the gym. Don’t eat breakfast or lunch because that just interrupts your nonstop hustle. That sort of thing.

    My guess on his thinking: Need laptop to look like I’m an entrepreneur. Laptop can’t hide my abs so hold with right hand. Need my biceps to look big so need something else in my left hand that doesn’t block my abs. Cigar to bring attention to my mouth once they’re done looking at my biceps and abs.
