"Yeah, that's right bitch... suck it."
I used to love cigarettes. My brand was Camel Turkish Golds. With the smooth Turkish blend and medium body they were a lighter smoke with a toastier flavor.
I would go out and drink, have far too many and the next morning feel like complete crap. I grew to hate smoking. It was stupid and as I reached the age of reason, I finally decided that I wanted to be healthier and quitting smoking had to happen.
I am now 4 years clean of a cigarette and I have never felt better. For the record, my quitting was my own decision and not because of these thetruth.com ads or this piece of crap ad I saw last week.
As much as I used to enjoy a smoke here and there, I never really saw it as sucking off the big tobacco companies. Another thing I can not stand about the ad is the hands on the head. If there is one rule I’ve learned in life it is that you do not touch the head during that wonderful act. It is completely disrespectful.
All the ad wants to really get across is how the tobacco companies are selfish bastards who treat you with no respect. I get it… but at the same time, is this ad strategy even necessary anymore? With all the research and advertising by dying smokers nationwide, is this poster really going to tell people to stop smoking?
Back before throat cancer was a pre-existing condition...
It’s not the 50’s anymore. Doctors are not promoting cigarettes like they used to. That’s right kids. They used to have doctors, smoking on TV, promoting that these ciggies were better than others. Everyone today knows that smoking is bad for you and others around you… but do we have to deal with people dying of throat cancer on a commercial break during American Idol?
Do these ads have to ruin the image of oral sex for all of us?
Plus, at close to 8 bucks a pack, I’d rather get a dime bag at this point. Now, if they try to re-do this poster with a bong coming out of the zipper, sign on Michael Phelps for the ad immediately. Just think, weed could finally get an Olympic endorsement.

I love how 2/3 of the ad also insinuates that smoking is Fing gay. For the record smoking is not gay. And i LOVEDED camel turkish specials. And that chick is Fing hot. There is nothing hotter than the scent of alcohol on a chicks breath, and the special blend of cheap perfume, tobacco smoke…a little rasp on her voice…and 1 dollar bills falling out of her purse in a dark parking lot of a out of the way strip mall on the highway. This is where i like to find my womens.
But back to smoking.
Smoking is cool.
What would a gangster movie be like without the cigarett hanging out the corner of the mouth.
Kurt Cobain’s voice would have sounded like dave matthew’s.
Imagine a war movie without a pack strapped to the helmet or the rattling hands unable to work a lighter.
Whats that giant meal like without a big long pull on a cigarette after?
How about those special moments when u can take a break from a busy bar scene and you can step outside to catch up with a good friend, finish that story where u can hear, soak in a view with a strong buzz on, or catch an excuse to be alone with the pretty girl that actually likes u.
Kids…smoking is for u.
Heres a secret. You go to college. You want to meet people…u hang out outside the dorm with a pack of cigarettes prepared to hand out half of them. In fact get your ass out there and bum cigarettes from other people. Just make sure u have a lighter on you. Youll meet more people than you could imagine in a short amount of time. Then youl definitely see that cute girl again at the same time the next day after class. There is nothing hotter than a girl who can blow……a smoke ring…i got distracted there for a minute.
Smoking is the future.
cash crops come and go but tobacco is here to stay and prices are rising. The native americans invented. We perfected it and the rest of the world pays through the nose for it.
Kids get out ther and smoke.
Smoke it.
Love it.
Live it.
