gruesome images on cigarette packs

[Tenner]

Support it all you want but everyone I know takes the piss out of those pictures as I said, it has no effect. A lot of people WANT to do something bad for their health because they are stressed as a fact.

I remember my brother handing and asking me if I wanted a cig once and I was like course man, he then gets the classic throat cancer one out and says but your gonna get a throat hemmerhoid!! Laughed for a while for that one and they were always a massive joke. I still lmao when I see that horrible picture Attitude is yeaaaah I`m gonna get one right here "flicks throat"

The whole idea of breathing in smoke which is obviously not ment to go into your lungs everyday, in fact every hour is pretty wrong and thats the most obvious fact. If you can`t see that then no amount of Mr. Hemmerhoid Throat is gonna change anything

And I know loads of people who smoke for 10-20 years and are fitter than me. One smokes unfiltered rollups and kicks non smokers asses cycling up hills.

I can`t say this 100 times but young people don`t give a fuck about health bills. Just like they don`t give a fuck about a lot of long term things, like school. Jobs and entry requirements are obvious as hell, I don`t see people stopping dropping out of high school/university though? Mentors available, extra help, tutors, special study books, the internet etc... Things aren`t that simple.

And the more smokers there are around the less awkward smoking spliffs will look so fuck the government and fuck their laws

As I said before, I quit for my own reasons not the pack pictures... They are pointless.

Cigarettes are for weak minded individuals and people that dont have respect for their life or the lives around them. If you disagree, its because your addicted to the poison already. Be my guest.. kill yourself, your friends, and your family. Leaves more space for me and mine.

Your statement if completely false. First off cigarettes are proven poison.. there are lists of the thousands of toxic chemicals, not to mention the clinical proof. I dont know where you get your information or pot, but the stuff I see is either organic or it is pretty damn close to it. In fact if I were to smoke anymore it would be wax or purged oil and as recreational once or twice a week. I think you might be in the wrong forum if you can put big tobacco and medicinally grown marijuana/extracts in the same category. How many people do you know that would smoke a cigarette for recreation, that is just fucking stupid.

What the Center for Disease Control says about tobacco (mind you this info is current and up to date. also just one of many different points on their site)....
Smoking harms nearly every organ of the body, causing many diseases and affecting the health of smokers in general. Quitting smoking has immediate as well as long-term benefits for you and your loved ones.

What the Center for Disease Control says about marijuana (mind you this info is from 1982 and NOT up to date)....
The Surgeon General of the Public Health Service has issued the following warning on marijuana:
Marijuana use is a major public health problem in the United States. In the past 20 years, its' use has increased 30-fold; it is estimated that more than a quarter of the American population has used it. The age at which persons first use marijuana has decreased gradually to the junior high school years. Until recently, nearly 11% of high school seniors used it, and although that figure has declined to 7%, its daily use still exceeds that of alcohol; more high school seniors use marijuana than smoke cigarettes. In a recent study, 32% of those surveyed had used marijuana during the previous 30 days, while 25% had smoked tobacco.
On March 24, 1982, the Department of Health and Human Services submitted to Congress a report reviewing the consequences of marijuana use. Marijuana and Health, 1982, ninth in a series, is primarily based on two recently conducted, comprehensive, scientific reviews by the Institute of Medicine of the National Academy of Sciences, the Canadian Addiction Research Foundation, and the World Health Organization (WHO). Both independent reviews corroborate the Public Health Service's findings of health hazards associated with marijuana use: Acute intoxication with marijuana interferes with many aspects of mental functioning and has serious, acute effects on perception and skilled performance, such as driving and other complex tasks involving judgement or fine motor skills.
Among the known or suspected chronic effects of marijuana are:

1. short-term memory impairment and slowness of learning.
2. impaired lung function similar to that found in cigarette smokers. Indications are that more serious effects, such as cancer and other lung disease, follow extended use.
3. decreased sperm count and sperm motility.
4. interference with ovulation and pre-natal development.
5. impaired immune response.
6. possible adverse effects on heart function.
7. by-products of marijuana remaining in body fat for several weeks, with unknown consequences. The storage of these by-products increases the possiblilties for chronic, as well as residual, effects on performance, even after the acute reaction to the drug has worn off. Of special concern are the long-term developmental effects in

children and adolescents, who are particularly vulnerable to the drug's behavioral and psychological effects. The "amotivational syndrome," characterized by a pattern of energy loss, diminished school performance, harmed parental relationships, and other behavorial disruptions, has been associated with prolonged marijuana use by young persons. Although more research is required, recent national surveys report that 40% of heavy users experience some or all of those symptoms.

Notice the CDC uses reference to what somebody said 20years ago and started in the early 60's hmm interesting how the time line matches with US government anti hippy nonsense. Anyway your a moron, go huff paint.

Oh I`m sorry I offended you mister! That one set you off for sure

From what you posted here, it doesn`t seem like Cannabis is an angel does it? Why do you use it then, are you weak minded? If its a no then smokers can say the exact thing. Oh but thats where you get all dicky and say "well smokings worse for you" or "smoking doesn`t get you high"... I`ll answer those too.

If smokings worse for you, that doesn`t make the person weak minded. If thats how it works then we are all weak minded according to health nazis. Weed gives you rinkles, forgetfulness, damages lungs... you listed them anyway.

If it doesn`t get you high then wheres the weak mind in that? Smokers can come along and poke fun at potheads too, tell them they are weak to smoke along and escape.

I LOVE the way you came up with that information and start calling it misinformation when it don`t prove your point. Talk to me about facts! You don`t mind using the governments facts about smoking do you?

I`m sorry but it sounds like you have too big of an ego lol

my granma on my mom's side had her tongue cut out because of throat cancer, and the cancer killed her. yet my mom smokes, my dad smokes, my twin bro smokes, my stepdad smokes... its an addiction.... my dad has the worst smokers cough and can barely breathe at times... but he wont quit. he even smokes in his sleep. a bunch of pictures wont change anyone's mind

 

[Tenner]

I agree some people are weak minded with smoking but not all are. My grandma is for example. She is under the threat of getting her leg amputated yet shes still smoking away

Shes 82 and the damage is done so I guess she doesn`t care. Can hardly breathe too, nasty... Sits around reading books about murder and serial killers lol

But a cigarette is awesome after a hefty amount of booze, a nice shag or a strong cup of coffee A cigarette isn`t awesome every 30 minutes though

 

[Urca]

ugh ill admit, i like to drink and smoke a black n mild, or get high and smoke one... its not common but it feels nice

No no, pay attention to the dates.. what did the surgen general know between 1960-82 not a god damn thing. Were you even alive then? Maybe you should just google it than.

Thats so true and I think that getting into them routines makes it harder to quit(same thing could be said about weed and anything else really)
Once I wake up I almost always walk to the store and im always smoking a cigarette during that walk.When I wake up and dont got any it sucks and something feels missing on my way to the store.
If im having sex,smoking,drinking,snorting lines lol I need cigarettes.
lol I love smoking a port after snorting a perc or some coke.

Yeh associating it with things is the problem The first association is usually "a hard day" then its a "big effort" and the after always calls for the ciggie

But I`d worry about the coke more if i were you Whenever I take some E I have to do some chainsmoking

Sorry my mistake I guess if your a junkie addicted to a bunch of other drugs, cigarettes are the least of your worries. Have fun being miserable when your older, praying to what ever your higher power is screaming and crying that you dont die.

 

[ThE sAtIvA hIgH]

I wonder if they put pictures of fat people on McDonalds food wrappers, would it discourage people from eating there?

oh dearrrr i just did a lil sex wee i laughed so hard and im not even stoned lol

 

[ThE sAtIvA hIgH]

we have had these gruseome images on our ciggs in uk for at least two years now , i dont think it has made much impact to be honest .

"Humph... weak minded people smoking cigs..."

The assumptions are on your end , if I was saying it toward you I would have put a quote of yours to respond to. Come correct bitch boy, or not at all. My statement was general, if it struck a cord with your loser ass im sorry. Im done on this thread because obviously your one of the many that will find this info out the hard way.

Just an FYI.. If a product is proven to be toxic and harmful and have absolutely zero benefits but how it makes you look and feel for the spit second your doing it than YES, you are weak minded. Here is a good pick for you... its what you will look like rotting in the ground or before they cremate your stupid ass.

 

[PappaBear]

to the op, i apologize in advance if me and bitch boys spitting match gets your thread closed.

 

[Tenner]

No the assumptions are on your end and thats clear as day I`m judging you from the way your making those assumptions and the way your judging people.

Your too busy looking in your mirror than making sense. I quit cigarettes it says that a few posts ago You want me to become and addict or get lung cancer don`t you?



Stop using harsh language and go live your healthy life

Apparently this is Japans policy on smoking....
