GOODBYE, MARLBORO MAN Cigarettes In Australia Will Soon Have To Be Sold In Identical Packs

Thx. I'm not giving smokers a hard time BTW. I know what it is like. I tried many times for years to stop and always failed. The last time worked but I know I have irreparable lung damage (too late, see). And what did I actually get for that? Good times? Ha ha ha.

this reasoning applies to many things. so lets all wear vegan clothes, exercise like sheep, and avoid everything that could possibly do us harm. big pharma, non- 'organic' food (yeah, how do you know for sure when you cant trust anyone?) cycle everywhere on a vegan bike and wear rubber gloves and a mask to avoid inhaling and ingesting any particulates

stop worrying about everyone and trying to ban things


you want the same govt you supposedly despise to ban stuff???

It's not the bleeding obvious, man. Where exactly have you found out about the names of the families that control all of that shit? When they started? How they've kept it going? Etc etc. You never hear about that side of things. Who are the real shareholders in this death industry?

You only have to realise in the depths of your mind, with total honesty, how fucking idiotic smoking is - then you'll be free of it very quickly.

Not preaching, just saying. And the thread is fair game, mate.

Your "reasoning" is wrong. Smoking has absolutely no health benefit of any kind whatsoever, never. Nearly all of patients in respiratory clinics are there because of smoking. Nearly all lung cancer is smoking-related.

This is not a question of the "nanny state" (which I also despise; hell, I'm on GLP, right).

Oh, yes, but How much did you spend? :-)

QUIT SMOKING CALCULATOR - Welcome to smoking calculator. It's purpose is to show you how much money you have saved (or could be saving) if you were no longer smoking.
The amount of money you could save is quite impressive. Cigarette smoking will surely nickel and dime you to death! QUIT SMOKING CALCULATOR here [link to darrenfauth.com]

Fuck 'em..I kept an old packet...out with the baccy, put it in the old pouch and toss their nazi packaging away.

My pack says "It's ok"

ha thats what i did too..

^ THIS

Smoking machine :-)

not much i spend more on weed but i can afford it no problem with money...

I hate it when asians walk past smoking and i have to inhale it. cant u megasmokers guys stay teh FUCK out of my way? lol. this law is brilliant. fuck cigarettes. lol. keep supporting the corporations peeps.

Imagine that heroin addicts wanted their drug legalised, along with the free market "right" to buy it OTC in colourful packages, with cool images printed thereon.

Some deal, only tabacco is already legal, and heroin is way less harmful.

LOL.

It's not about supporting the corporations, but more - in the case of austalia anyway - about supporting the government through insane taxes.

The same pack of cigarettes that cost $20 in australia, cost $1 in China. The same company sells them, marlboro.

Where's that big differential going? Not to marlboro.

A few years back my friend bought back a pack of cigs from Egypt with a pic of a guy in a hospital bed on oxygen.

If people want to smoke they are going to smoke no matter what kinds of pics you put on the package. I saw a guy smoking out of his tracheotomy hole.

Yes. Sometimes the government will increase the price of the cigarette so that ... of smokers will decrease but not to those who can afford regardless of the price.

Wow. In Zimbabwe cigs are only .06$ us
In Australia cigs are a whopping 16.00 us!!!

Dang.

Yes. Mediocrity through Taxation. The most potent source of government's control on your life is in the form of its power to tax you ... if you smoke :-)

its a vice ho as money to afford it would do it anyway no matter how much is the price ^^ and the corporations know that and dont give a fuck ...because the real bastards are the gov ho taxes that shit so hard "for the health of people" off course...

I quit the cunts 2 and a half weeks ago and feel great! As a smoker I would give a flying fuck what color the box is or what stupid fucking image they stick on the box. I bought cigs for 25 years to smoke the fuckers not admire the fucking box so MEH!

Oh! Get fucked too.

I smoked for thirty years and just quit two years ago.

What a huge waste of time money and effort smoking was, so glad it's gone from my life. The cost of smoking to society is enormouns and all that profit goes to fucking rich white pricks that DO NOT GIVE A SHIT ABOUT YOU, YOUR HEALTH, AND YOUR FAMILY. There are centuries of generational wealth attached to this death industry.

Smokers feel so defensive about all of this, because they feel so dumb and ripped of that they are hooked on that shit and don't have the guts to get off it.

Revolutionary and rebellious smokers standing up for civil and commercial right???? Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha (wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeezzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz - sorry bit of emphasema from the smokes). Give me a fuckin' break.

can't wait until they legislate how much tp you can use to wipe your ass....somehow sure your self-righteous pea brain will find some reason for it.

the point is ...ever since you let your government start infringing on your rights, they find it easier to take away more.

enjoy your nanny state dumbass!

fuck that we need to invade AU the Marlboro man is an American fucking icon!! fuck it we are letting the god damn Twinkie die maybe the only thing left is my shot gun. Bastards!

I'm sure the Aussies will find a picture of another cowboy to jack off to.

Not to mention pharmaceutical drugs.

Non-sequitor, "pea brain". Look it up dumbass. LOL.

who says govt doesn't compete with private enterprise?

I just read in the news the other day that the gov. Is going to require a smokers license in order to smoke and limit smokers to a pack a day... That is the u.s gov is

I had my first new look pack today, had the desired effect, ripped the packet open and emptied the pack on to the dinning table, could not bear to look at the packet,threw it in the bin, took me over an hour to light the cigarette, it looked so strange, I am use to looking at the benson and hedges on the end of the cigarette, and the little gold line, now just a serial number, so creepy.

lmao
