Anti Smoking adds on TV don't work
Everytime I see an anti Smoking add on TV it only makes me want to smoke more instead of quit. It's like the commercial is reminding me to smoke.

New Zealand and Australia seem to be more preventative... Than quitting. I like the idea of future generations never starting, I place it above my own selfish need to quit. Even when you do quit, the urge is still there, even though many claim to never have it again. Our countries use similar tactics to corporate America... Instead of aiming towards consumerism specifically, however, we use the same tactic to prevent smoking. I see very few teenagers smoking, in my city, with the highest unemployment rate, 15%. Also, the price of 20 tailor made Cigarettes in New Zealand is $20 NZD. Which is almost the highest retail price on the planet. There's a range of adds, but this is my favourite, because it associates smokes with being fgt. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=F8tNcD4vyfg

I don't get it either

I stopped watching network TV for about a month when I was quitting because of this nonsense. Ironic, isn't it? 'Quit Smoking' ads made it harder to quit?

17 RespuestasEditado por Swag: 5/6/2015 3:07:13 AMIn Australia, we've abolished all branding for cigarettes, so the packaging is all the exact same dull green colour (we actually did tests to see what colour was the most off-putting) and all packaging is covered with images of disease, as per the picture above. And if that wasn't enough, the tax on cigarettes increases every few years. A packet of 25 cigarettes now costs like $25.00AUS. Soon enough it will be $30.

I, myself was offered a cigarette by another 8th grader in the summer next to a entrance to a tunnel going under the road. I said yes and he gave me his lighter and cigarettes. I threw them onto the street with traffic and ran. Never saw him again but I know that I did what was right.

2 RespuestasI've smoked for almost 10 years now, but only about 10 people in my life know that I smoke. I'm also trying to quit, bought a vaporizer to help and it is doing the trick.

To me, I find those hipster commercials a bit annoying, and I find that they don't seem all that useful. I know that they are trying to appeal to the new generation, but isn't scaring the absolute shit out of them with pictures of holes in your throat also very useful?

1 RespuestaYou know smoking will kill you, painfully and slowly. So why don't you take steps to quit? I'm not judging, I'm just curious to see the psychology behind deliberately shortening your life?

Lol I don't know about smoking ads but my favorite drinking one is "drive sober or get pulled over" [spoiler]I laugh every time[/spoiler]

You're right dead cigarette companies are how we solve this.

21 RespuestasFirst of its ADS. Yeah keep on smoking. I don't know how yellow teeth and coughing make you want to smoke. Go on ahead though and smoke that cigarette, it'll be one less dumbass everyone has to deal with.
