What do you think of these new cigarette warning labels?

I think I will buy the one with the teeth first.

they work for me...i havent smoked a single cigarette, joint, or anything for a month now...and im pretty damn sure im not going back this time.

had a scare that i may have mouth cancer....turns out im fine, but im not fuckin with that shit again...better to let my mind rest easy.

ive also had incredible amounts of energy since quitting, probably in the best shape of my life.

alright, offtrack, sorry.

yeah the teeth one would freak me out the most.

I think they're hilariously awesome/grim as fuck.

I hate the fact that i find them funny because i don't care.

i heard that smoking isn't actually bad for you. from someone.

people really dont care about their health, the social status is more important for them. so for me are useless.

am i the only one that is surprised how much our lovely government cares about this issue? Poverty is fine, war/killing is fine, no health care? fine. BUT FOR GOD SAKES DO NOT SMOKE CIGARETTES!

the mouth one looks like a photoshop, I can tell by the pixels

maybe I could get rich making plain little containers for cigarettes.

Gotta catch'em all.

cigarettes give you zombie eyes?

i feel like these would be more convincing:

Is this a new thing in the USA? They've had big spooky/gross labels on cigarette cartons for as long as I can remember up here.

new thing here yep

cigs are stupid why not save your lungs for something better?

If I still smoked cigs, it wouldn't do a damn thing.

well played

this makes me want to smoke a cig, brb

Have had warnings in the UK and Ireland for quite some time now. The Irish ones haven't any images though, just silly slogans (that are easily replacable with amusing replacements) Think it's the same in some European countries.

what really gets me is that the government is mandating putting a huge picture of a rotting corpse on cigarette packs, yet they'd slap you with a fine if you put a pair of breasts on the remaining 50% of the label.

i don't smoke cigarettes. all this means is i have to see this shit when i go to the store.

fag for quitters

washington university is paying me to quit so in august is my quit date. woohoo research studies.

we've had these in nz for a while but really it dosnt work.they should simply just say smoking costs a fuckload, stinks and makes you skin look shit.

whats gonna really fuck with us smokers is the banning of smoking in public places like whats happened in new york.weird how second hand smoke impacts is a complete fucking myth tho.

all this anti-smoking shit is kinda nice tho,its my first opportunity to be part of a repressed minortiy.fight the power!etc

haven't bought a pack for 2 months now! i still bum when i get an opportunity. i've probably only had 15 cigarettes at the most in the past two months.

these photos made me want to quit back when i was smoking. the mouth cancer one really scared me because i had a huge canker sore at the time i saw that pack, started to freak out and decided to quit right there. i went for about 6 hours before i had another smoker.

shit's tough but my lungs are in the best shape they've been in for a while!

i still think smoking is one of the sexiest and coolest :sup: sunglassesest motorcycle cowboy things on the planet though, and i have a bad feeling once i get back to school the smoke will get back in my lungs. i think i'm going to pick up smoking rollies again though, if i go back. be a tobacco connoisseur.

smoke em if you got em

Completely socially constructed vision of smoking. Good old Bernays and the tobacco team over the years. They put in a lot of work to hear you proclaim that.
