06.02.09 DIE YOU HIPPIE A-HOLES

So Australian hippies are actually more annoying than our hippies?

Paul Hogan must be rolling over in his grave.

Just looked that organizations financials, they received over $6M in grants / donations last year…. if even $1 of that went to these dip-shit “scientists” the donors / granting agencies should have a right to pull all their funding and give it an organization that spends money, um, i don’t know, maybe finding a CURE for cancer…..

My God! It’s like five cigarettes at once!

I am in flavor country.

(Those are BOTH yours?)

It’s a big country.

Step back and think about this for a second. These guys pulled off the ultimate con – they got PAID to sit around and watch reruns of the Simpsons.

I’m sorry, but there’s no way I can be mad at these guys. The only thing I am is jealous. I bet they’re already chasing funding for a followup study where they categorize the portrayal of alcoholic beverages in the show.

Laramie Cigarettes are known to soothe your T-zone.

If, “smoking is portrayed in a negative way…can still influence young people’s behavior” Then why are anti-smoking advertisements allowed to be shown to children? These portray smoking in a negative way. Are they saying that anti-smoking ads are also corrupting kids?

Also does anyone understand what, if anything, the point was of their “finding” that Laramie cigs are used as the brand on the series? Isn’t it better than advertising an actual currently produced brand on the series?

I can never remember why i started smoking. it might have been watching my parents smoke all those years, or my grandparents, or other relatives, or my friends…..

Nah, it had to be because of The Simpsons.

I remember when I started wearing roller skates and attaching large rockets to my back to hunt birds in the southwestern U.S. I mean, I guess I should have known better since I had only ever seen it done in a negative light, but I couldn’t help myself. The television has me mesmerized.

Kids usually only smoke after sex.

For years after I saw Dead Poets Society I tried to woo ladies with flowery language. Curse you Hollywood!

Note to anyone who doesn’t get the Simpsons: FUCK OFF.

I know this is true because the one time I watched the show, and Abe Simpson was on; ever since, I’ve been becoming an old man. I am not a crackpot.

Kids usually only smoke after sex.

Sounds like you need to have their oil changed.

Ever since I started watching Batman & Robin, I’ve been gay.

Thanks to cartoons I only wear a vest, with no pants or underwear, and speak in a stutter, but that hasn’t caused me to pick up smoking. It just resulted in multiple arrests and sexual violations.

“Dr Guy Eslick, an international fellow of the International Union Against Cancer…”

That’s like Dr Guy Bumrush, an international fellow of the International Union of NAMBLA, finding that 12 year old boys are sexy.
