New Anti-Smoking Ads Warn Teens 'It's Gay To Smoke'

I don't mind the use of gay as a word to describe things that a person doesn't like, in fact I use it myself often, but this is obviously a homophobic ad of the worst kind. Kind of like saying ''hey chill out, it's only a joke'', while at the same time promoting shit homosexual stereotypes in a serious context.

I noticed that when you neg repped me for going to The Globe.

You're an idiot, this is from The Onion.

Genteel Death 10.06.2009 12:18 PM

I want to neg-rep you again but I can't. Yet.

Lurker 10.06.2009 12:21 PM

I'm waiting for it bitch.

Genteel Death 10.06.2009 12:22 PM

Give it time and have some patience, please.

Lurker 10.06.2009 12:25 PM

Bring it

floatingslowly 10.06.2009 12:29 PM

owned HARD by The Onion.

I'm not even going to ask if this is less slow-witted. I already know the answer.

Lurker 10.06.2009 12:30 PM

Ha!

Genteel Death 10.06.2009 12:31 PM

Owned what exactly?

Lurker 10.06.2009 12:31 PM

The owner! Yeah!

EDIT - damn, I thought there was a "by" in this post:

Ogay.
Floatingslowly, man, I strongly suggest you make a clear separation between being serious and being humorous, since when you try being serious it's hard to take you seriously, and when you try being funny it's hard to see the humour in what you post.

warning: serious context.

Genteel Death 10.06.2009 12:46 PM

Man, and you think I didn't start this thread as a reference to your comment about myself making a good anti-smoker? Not that I am pulling your leg, I AM PULLING YOUR LEG.

atsonicpark 10.06.2009 12:53 PM

If this was true, wouldn't it promote smoking more?

That whole mislabeled "emo" scene is all about appearing homosexual. Hence the girlpants, Flock of Seagull haircuts, dudes kissing dudes on myspacebook, etc.

floatingslowly 10.06.2009 12:59 PM

you seem bovvered. maybe if you kept telling yrself that this thread was a gag, you might actually believe it. I won't, but you might.

The Onion is really very clever, but it's just not really funny. At all.
