You have to understand, I don't smoke, but I used to, and I still enjoy the occassional cigar. And I do all of this of my own recognizance, it was my choice. And so I guess I get real sick and fucking tired of these anti-tobacco groups bitching & bellyaching about tobacco companies lying to us and forcing people to smoke, like they've got nothing better to do that sit outside elementary schools with a lighter and a pack of Nails, lighting cigs for kids as they come out, saying "Hey, it's cool & it tastes like bubble gum."

Anyway, all over I see bilboards with cancer-eaten mouths, and hear commercials by people with those voice box devices. It pisses me off, cause little kids are seeing this shit, and at dinner time. But the other day I'm seeing this commercial with this doctor showing a healthy lung, and then the lung of a man that died of smoking related diseases. And before I could be offended, I started laughing, because yes, the Jedi Bastard thought immediately of Clerks. I wanted to thank Kevin for that little bit of levity, and for the ability to laugh at these stupid groups. Am I wrong to hate these groups? Maybe, I don't know.

Who thinks he'll light up a hand-rolled Cuban in response to these groups, nootch!
