You HAVE seen him twenty years from now. This is TFL Bill's younger self. All he's missing is the dog poster.

This by far the most amusing thing about this; these people actually think that the President of the United States actually gives a shit about their chewing turds.

these are for you my friend.

The prices per pack of smokes really hit home with me when I was able to scoop up a Spider-man/Storm/Luke Cage anti-smoking comic from 1982.

In the back, it mentioned that a pack was 75 cents. Punching that in the inflation calculator (http://www.westegg.com/inflation/infl.cgi) tells me what had cost 75 cents in '82 would be 1.65 in 2008 (wouldn't let me do 2009).

And here I'm paying 4.97 for a pack of lights.

Smoking in any serious fashion, meaning regularly, is stupid. Sorry guys/gals, and you know this. The human body is weak and easily strong-armed into compulsion by addictive substances. "Pleasure" from smoking is a feigned rationalization to justify the masturbation of the addiction.

Smoking is no longer just the vice of the smoker, but as shown in recent studies, a risk to those exposed to second hand smoke.

As for chewing tobacco, it really is a personal vice and the numbers of users versus smokers makes it statistically less significant on moral grounds, if one were to prioritize such things.

Anyways, bla bla bla.

But that harm we were able to inflict on others was the last bit of pleasure us regular smokers were able to get out of smoking.
What kind of monster would want to take that away from us?

I don't smoke cigarettes, but simon666 singlehandedly made me take this kids side and buy a pack of reds.

Yes BUT if you are a smoker you get a passport stamp that says [FLAVOR COUNTRY], which is awesome.

Southern Culture.

One of these is an oxymoron, the other is just a bunch of dumbass people who like the same dumbass thing.

guess which is which.

I know, that's the funniest part...I wonder how often it is that you can tell how effective legislation is by a YouTube search?

I figure it started as a fetish community, with hairy rednecks erotically dipping for each other, but white trash teenagers picked it up as an actual fashion trend when they noticed they got lots of stars and encouragement for making dippin' videos.
