HOLD UP!


Can we please talk about the graphic images that FDA will be requiring cigarette companies to put on all their packs and cartons as of June 22, 2011?

*GAG*

O-M-G! Have we really gone from the days of a cool ass Joe Camel cartoon to a dying cancer patient… I can’t. What in the hell has this world come through???

I mean certainly, this campaign to discourage teens from smoking will deter anyone with a remotely queasy stomach. But my God. And to be perfectly honest, looking at that picture of the crying baby makes me wanna schedule a hysterectomy, not stop smoking.

But all jokes aside, there are a lot of ways to skin a cat. And we all know, honey catches more bees than vinegar. So instead of making the kids (and every damn body that has to see it) sick to their stomach, why doesn’t the FDA take this moment to do something positive. You know, like regulate the amount of hormones that are fed to the poultry and cows.

I’m willing to bet all my birthday money that we’d have less underage kids puffing on cigarettes if the crazy growth ‘roids didn’t have them thinking (and looking like) they are so freaking grown.

*shrug*

I’m just saying.

    For me I doubt that this is going to make a difference at all. If people want to smoke they&#39;ll smoke. Maybe I should make some cigarette box covers and sell online, I&#39;d make a killing. Hell I know and have seen how they kill the meat I eat and I don&#39;t bat an eye when cutting into my medium rare steak.<br /><br />Peace, Love and Chocolate<br />Tiffany

    We have had these images like these on cigarette boxes for a while now in Toronto. I do not smoke, but from what i&#39;ve seen, smokers kind of look past it. They take what they need out of the box, and just put it away. Initially, everyone was as shocked as you are, but it fades and becomes commonplace after a while. <br /><br />Recently, a bylaw was passed saying that cigarettes could not be
