- Napoleone, on 11/04/2007, -27/+1345Perhaps it's in poor taste, but at least it does put things in proper perspective.
We face more likely mortal dangers every day of our lives, yet no one seems to panic about them as much as with terrorism. We need ads like that over here, so people can wake the ***** up. - vinblackham, on 11/02/2007, -25/+742...can't believe I spelled "ridiculous" wrong either!!!
- hotspot102, on 11/02/2007, -11/+630Seems to me, like were scared of all the wrong things.
- idc5, on 10/10/2007, -14/+5232000 times 9/11 = 1636.36
- FizixMan, on 10/10/2007, -32/+500I think it's more ridiculous that we keep placing 9/11 on this high pedestal when there are FAR WORSE atrocities happening in the world.
- ChromaVita, on 10/24/2007, -8/+293I think it makes a pretty good point, and isn't entirely offensive.
- capiCrimm, on 10/10/2007, -14/+247yeah, who the ***** is going to fly a plane into a cigarette? That's just freakin rediculous. boogie down.
- fancypantscz, on 10/10/2007, -5/+192The ad is trying to use 9/11 to save lives by putting things in perspective. I think this is just usage especially in the light of those who used 9/11 to start a preemptive war based on dubious intelligence.
- FTLJohnson, on 10/10/2007, -14/+195Like the fact that it's approaching over one million civilians dead in Iraq?
- duggtodeath, on 11/02/2007, -12/+177Never forget...the smooth taste of Laramie Lights! All the flavor, and half the tar!
- michaelaranda, on 10/10/2007, -4/+149It took me a few seconds to register that this ad was published 9/11/07, rather than 9/11/01. I was confused.
- getrealnow, on 10/10/2007, -11/+145Its no more then saying durka durka jihad Muhammad
Be honest, we all make fun of each other, but its nothing to get your panties in a bunch.
Its just a smoking ad thats trying to put a point across, not a very kind one, but it does have a point. - benbread, on 10/10/2007, -21/+1542000 times 9/11, my God, that's 1,822,000!
- kevyn, on 10/10/2007, -8/+126get over it
- duggtodeath, on 10/10/2007, -9/+126Stop smoking.
- BlackStorm, on 10/14/2007, -10/+116Damn right man!! I agree 100%. Sure, 9/11 was bad, but when placed in comparison with other things that end human life, it seems small. Plus, 9/11 happened once in the last 6 years, where as there were roughly 32.4 million smoking related deaths in the last 6 years. (o.0) But, 9/11 we can't forget about. =/ At least we got our priorities straight.
- Dustin - milkman1187, on 10/10/2007, -3/+105this is hardly offensive, it's just the truth.
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -7/+95The truth hurts
- insomniac8400, on 10/10/2007, -7/+89shhhhhhhhhhhh!
- kevyn, on 10/10/2007, -3/+79so terrorists are behind smoking?
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -13/+83Go get ***** you over sensitive nancy.
- sentime, on 10/10/2007, -9/+73omg cigarette terrorists! Lets open a Department of Smoking Security
- arjie, on 10/10/2007, -2/+62You know, I thought that was a pretty good ad.
- DesertDude, on 10/10/2007, -6/+63Everything offends Americans. Make a joke about 9/11, the troops, a favorite politician, race, religion, ethnicity, foreign language, ANYTHING, and they'll all cry "OFFENSIVE!".
- capiCrimm, on 10/10/2007, -2/+57I dugg you even though you insulted me. Simply because your name is OMGWTFROFLMAOx2 and I found it ironic.
Would you like to play kickball with me? - meachen, on 10/10/2007, -8/+63good ad
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -0/+53So it's true. Digg really is the 3rd grade of the internet(s).
- capiCrimm, on 10/10/2007, -10/+63it.
- LethalAmbition, on 10/10/2007, -7/+58Digg you down for commenting it three times you ass.
- maddhopps10, on 10/10/2007, -5/+55why would you say something's rediculous, when clearly it's bluedicrous
- Joshuarr, on 10/10/2007, -4/+53It was math. (For those of you who didn't see it.)
- 4rch, on 10/10/2007, -11/+60Don't you understand FizixMan? It happened to us, and as we all know, we're so much more important than the rest of the world.
- CaymanCarpediem, on 10/10/2007, -6/+52So it is your contention that we should spend more time worrying about things we have no control over than things we can very easily control? That doesn't make much sense.
- supermajic, on 10/10/2007, -3/+48Hey, ***** You!
:D - chlorinekid, on 10/10/2007, -4/+49looks like an awesome ad to me...
- matude, on 10/10/2007, -2/+44I think it's one of the best ads I've seen lately.
People need to be told how many people die every year of smoking. Ok it might be a bit cold but it's a ingenious idea to get people's attention. - MrBison, on 10/10/2007, -18/+59..Great AD. All this politically correct 9/11 stuff bores me to death. Get over it ...It was 6 years ago...And Americans are still bombing women and children in Afghanistan every day...
- insomniac8400, on 10/10/2007, -6/+45Everyone else exploits 9/11 for their own purposes, why not the the anti-smoking lobby?
- Tenlow, on 10/10/2007, -3/+42 It will be 911 times 2356.
My God, that's... I don't even know what that is!
Nobody does! - norman619, on 10/10/2007, -15/+53Get over it. You are reacting like the nutjobs who want that cartoonist killed for daring to do another Mohamad cartoon.
- UtopiaInTheSky, on 10/10/2007, -8/+45I see what you did there.
- Koldkompress, on 10/10/2007, -1/+38Either you're sarcastic and you're linking to an image using the whole cliched "And for everything else, there's mastercard", or you -actually- think they ran the advert, and linked to a site called anus.com
Whichever it is, you lose. - insanebrain, on 10/10/2007, -2/+38so does smoking. .
- refreshments, on 10/10/2007, -4/+38Good ad.
I need to quit, myself. Yep Need to.
Haven't. - JacNet, on 10/10/2007, -3/+36You forgot the "Here are some planks, nails, a hammer and a saw. Build a bridge and" part.
- Kinneas12, on 10/10/2007, -11/+43http://img206.imageshack.us/img206/1554/picture2bj6.png
- thepatster, on 10/10/2007, -1/+30Stalin had a quote that went something like: The death of one person is a tragedy; the death of 1000 is a statistic.
- FizixMan, on 10/10/2007, -9/+34I blame Digg. and/or my firefox browser. Hell, I even refreshed the page just to double check. And apparently editing my own comments results in a new one. Geez. I never thought I'd be one of these people double posting -- but triple?
