is it me or are the wordings of the warnings going madder? some are just plain daft.

Smoking Causes Aging Of The Skin:
...really? is that because it takes TIME to smoke.. and as you are smoking.. your skin ages? does a non-smokers skin not age then? ever seen Sir Cliff Richards neck?

Smoking Is Addictive, Dont Start:
..brilliant advice on the BACK of the pouch.. so you have to buy it to see it. and if you heeded the advice, you wasted your money!! dont get that on big macs do you? open up the box and message inside saying.. im going taste like shit and make you fat, throw me away...

Smoking Can Damage The Sperm And Decreases Fertility:
..hmm... so how come when i see some fat arsed horror with her chav boyfriend walking along the street with her 14 kids under 7 years old.. they smoking (kids also sometimes)? if it were true, smoking would be encouraged to breed the chavs out and deplete their gene pool.. aint working well tho is it?

Smoke Contains Benzene, Nitrosamines, Formaldehyde And Hydrogen Cyanide:
YAY!! free gifts with every pouch!!

sigh :p

They arent saying its the sole purpose of ageing. It just adds to the skins aging process...or there abouts.

What he's saying is that you only get to read the messages after you have bought the packet..

the warnings all appear on various packs, in different orders, they are all as far as i know based on true and scientific facts.

smoking will FUCK you up, the less people taking up the habit, the better.


i really should give up someday too.

lol i wonder if anyone has ever actually gone to buy some fags or baccy and just before paying theyve read the warning and gone "whoa!" and handed it back?

tbh I doubt it, we all know its bad for you, we all know what it does yet we still do it, if they really wanted to put people off then sod health warnings just hike the prices up so much they bankrupt you (which is happening anyway tbh lol)

When reading the warnings on the cigarette packets just replace smoking with wanking, it makes more a much more enjoyable and light hearted cigarette.

Wankers die younger.
Wanking is highly addictive, don't start.
Wanking can decrease sperm count and decreases fertility.

:D
