The PETA ad is not funny its wrong, it blatantly objectifies women and clearly if you find it funny that shows you are sexist, If it were a man I would be just as disgusted. This stuff is wrong, animals are not just meat and humans are animals too.

Hi! I am writing a paper on the advertisement with the elderly lady trying to smoke. I am having trouble reading the text under “Smoking causes premature ageing” and what the product is. Can anyone with better eyes tell me what it says?

Advertisement has good or bad effect on daily life of people. So its need to present very carefully.

I think some of these ads are very powerful, whether you agree with the purpose or not. They are creative and well-executed. Whether I drink or smoke, that’s just “whatever.” Obviously these types of ads help somewhat cause smoking is not the glamorous activity it used to be portrayed as. My fave is the hangover one (which is not telling you to quit drinking, it’s for a tablet that will relieve the hangover….and cat).

And as for the arguments, basically just don’t be stupid. And if you choose to be, just don’t come crying to me later.

sixty percent of american population is overweight or obese – none of them are very healthy. the other fourty percent is within the “acceptable” weight range – most of them arent very healthy.

why do you people pretend to care one way or the other?

i dont, because im to young, but i know that stuff did happen.

I smoke, I drink, I smoke weed, and sometimes occasionally dabble in drugs other than those

but i DONT drink and drive, i DONT light up a cig around people i dont know, or in somebody else’s house, at least without asking, and nothing ive ever done has caused any harm to anyone around me… i guess the point im trying to make here is just because you drink, dosnt mean your going to drink and drive, just because you smoke cigarettes, dosnt mean that your going to do it, purposely in a room full of little kids to spite them.

it is possible to do things responsibly and to infer that drinking is “STUPID” is stupid… its absurd people need to put other people down so they can think higher of them selves because they choose not do a certain thing… what i do is none of your concern as long as its not directly affecting you… especially if what im doing helps me take the edge off of our shitty lives… some people knit, some people garden, i catch a buzz

i have a job, im a functioning member of society, i dont have an arrest record… im sure plenty of non smokers and people who dont drink out there cant say that

and what are you people bitching about smoking anyways? the government has banned it like everywhere. the only places we can smoke, other than our own homes are in “Smoker areas” more than 15 feet away from any door, not in restaurants, theme parks, etc etc pretty much any place that has 4 walls.

and i can almost guarantee you that the douche bags in Washington that introduce stupid legislation that shit are involved in things far worse and morally degrading.

get off your high horse and worry about your own shit
not what other people are doing

@ dd

I find it funny that you make such a big deal about our rights to do what we choose, and then follow it up with “What business is it of theirs to interfere”. We also have the right to express ourselves. If our version of self-expression happens to be “We want you to stop smoking/drinking/eating too much” then we have just as much right to say it as anyone else has to be doing it.
