The big lie

[Tommym]

Tobacco companies knew so much more about creating image. I spent 25 years in advertising and we would regularly discuss cigarette advertisements. 

If you’re over 60+ you may remember these. 

I’ll start the slogan and you finish. Remember. The last time you heard this was January 1970. 

Winston tastes good like.............

I’d rather fight than ........

I’d walk a mile ..........

And we still remember. Now look at Hollywood. Actors and studios are paid MILLIONS for product placement and have their stars seen smoking.  

Maybe this will make you angry enough to quit.

Can’t remember the brand, but the jingle sticks  .....a silly miloliter long, 101’s.  Very skinny and marketed towards women.

Agree with sweetplt‌. Nothing could force me to quit until I was ready. Attending funerals of family & friends that died because of smoking was no deterrent for me. Smoke on I said. Then one day I was tired of the lies. Not one puff since.

Smoke free for 14 years, 5 months, 2 weeks, 5 days, 9 hours, 18 minutes and 47 sec....48...49...50...51...
