The Cigarette Thread

I tried babelfish and it tells me:


Sample intelligence, you do not like to smoke those…

I guess they're trying to say smart people would know not to smoke?
 
''Sample intelligence, you will not like to smoke those'' has kind of a ring to it. To me, the pack reads: ''Those in the know quit smoking''.
 
I've just noticed that these Thai Camels seem to burn pretty quickly. If I'm not careful the whole thing burns away and I've barely had a puff. :\
 
Big tobacco accused of sneak plain pack campaign

West Australian Federal MP Tony Crook has accused tobacco companies of recruiting people to call MPs anonymously and criticise proposed plain packaging laws.

The tobacco industry has vowed to fight proposed laws which would force them to sell cigarettes in plain packs with a large, graphic health warning, while a second bill will remove company trademarks from the packs.

Tony Crook says his office has received regular phone calls from people expressing anger over the plan.

The Nationals Member for O'Connor says he suspects the callers have been coached, because they always raise the same issues.

He says tobacco companies are intentionally trying to mislead people.

"Quite often when we've been speaking to people and talking to them about the issues they've actually agreed with us on many of the occasions, which is really quite interesting," he said.

Last week Health Minister Nicola Roxon introduced the plain packaging legislation for cigarettes into Parliament and said the Government would defend it from any legal threats.

The tobacco industry is warning of several legal challenges to the legislation in a move it says could cost the Government billions of dollars.

Tobacco giant Philip Morris is among the companies taking legal action over the laws.

It is accusing the Government of breaching a bilateral investment treaty with Hong Kong, where the company is based.

Opposition Leader Tony Abbott has said the Coalition will not oppose the legislation but may attempt to make amendments to ensure smoking rates really do drop.

why is it that Winnie Blues taste so much different to Winnie Golds :X

love the taste of blues but dont like smokin semi-strong durries (due to the addiction/habbit formin potential 8) )
 
^ I think you hit the nail on the head there. Make the weaker ones taste not so nice, move people on to the stronger stuff.

I haven't noticed this with Marlboro or Champion though, the brands I prefer to smoke.
 
Normal durrys smell and taste like ass. Especially winfield blues. I can only smoke kratecs. Gadang garams, slow burning, smooth and smell/taste delicous.

My boss smokes winny blues. If we spark up at the same time by the time he has finished hes mine hasnt even burned past halfway.
 
Yeah around that. They are great for special occasions and have a nice flavour but I could never see me smoking them all day every day.
 
Well, Brisbane BL'res. No more smoking in the Queen St Mall as from tomorrow.

I'm sure this will make everyone happy now that all the smokers will congregate on Adelaide street, the ends of the mall and on Elizabeth street.
 
^ lol

The worst thing in the UK they did was stopping smoking at the end of train platforms.

I mean, they're in open air. All the smokers were together, out of the way, and the non-smokers were not effected.

Now, there's about 20 smokers crowded outside the front entrance, producing a huge plume of dirty smoke which every man, women, child has to walk through to get to their train or cab.

Well done.
 
I thought all the cool smokers congregated on the CBD rooftops, next to the airconditioning vents, Batman style. You have to admit it is freaky standing up near the casino and seeing a haze of smoke hovering above the shoppers heads.

On a brighter note at least the gardens in the mall will be able to grow plants now without the 2 tonnes of filters deposited in them each year.
