Surgeon General’s Excoriation of the Day: In order to bring the United States in line with its hockey-playing hat (context), the FDA has proposed adding 36 new graphic warning labels to cigarette packs and ads (three of which are shown above).
The final warning labels will be selected in June, and tobacco companies will have 15 months to implement them, as well as apportion 20% of all ads to warnings.
What say the smokers? Would these dissuade you from your habit?
[consumerist.]
The cigarette boxes here have way more disturbing pictures than that, and they do nothing.
LOL OURS ARE WAY MORE GROSS AND MY FATHER STILL BUY THEM.
IN FACT,IT HAS BECOME A COLLECTION.
“HEY DO YOU HAVE THE MUTATED BABY ONE?I ALREADY HAVE THE BLACK LUNGS ONE”
^What she said.
Ours are just disturbing compared to the ones in this post. People still smoke them, but I know that most of my friends (both male and female smokers - including my brother) NEVER take the one with the graphics of the premature baby or the other baby graphic.
Tl;dr - smoking is bad for you anyway. I’m so glad my dad has stopped.
