New Tobacco Warnings - complete bollocks
As any other smokers may well know, all tobacco products in the UK are now covered in warnings to try and put you off. Firstly this is a fuckwit of an idea anyway as you need to buy the pack of fags to read what it says on them anyway. Your not going to go back into the shop and say "Sorry mate I dont want these anymore, I didnt know they were bad for ya!" . This isnt as bad as the ineffectiveness of the messages they put on them. 'Smoking seriously damages you and other around you'?? Its not bloody CS Gas or a pair of knuckle dusters. And 'Dont let children breathe your smoke'... if I catch them smoking my fags they'll feel the back of my hand!!!
Fags kill you. I think thats known pretty much worldwide by now. If you want to stop people smoking them you need to use some creative advertising that makes a more direct approach. Ive come up with some suggestions for the male smoking population...
For budget brand cigarettes (Soverign, Mayfair and the like)
For the insecure smoker..
For the rugged roll-up smoker type...
And if that doesn't work...
another idea could be to label the cigarettes themselves, such as below,
This would make smoking less desirable mabie even uncomfortable, as demontrated by this example conversation:
"..anyway, no-one messes with me, all me familyare GANGSTAAAARS."
"Then how come your dad's a binman then? You're a complete prick"
"No I'm not"
"Yes you are. It even says so on your fags."
"Oh yeah"
"and I just pissed in that pint you finished."
...there we go, another bad idea turned good. I shouldn't give these ideas away for free, I should be getting paid for this shit....
