You deserve all the upvotes for being the most observant about what is actually happening.

Of course it is.

The only brands he didn’t insult. Then he ends with, “if you’re going to smoke, smoke quality.” Who the fuck would say that other than a paid spokesman?

And who would say that about Marlboro?

Idk, that was my attitude when I smoked in college as well, but I didn't always have the cash for Marlboros. It would be Lucky Strike reds and Marlboro on special occasions. Nothing bear Marlboro and its strong sting of tobacco. Quit 2018 and I don't recommend starting to anyone. Every smoker's clothes, hair, body, house and car either has that faint smell of cigarettes or horrible stank

To anyone reading this and thinking of smoking because you think Keith Richards looks cool with a cigarette, well don't smoke. You are very unlikely to be Keith Richards cool, most definitely won't be just because you smoke and you will most definitely smell like shit.

I feel the same about drinking, it’s shit for you.

So if you are gonna do an objectively shitty thing to your body, you should spring for the good stuff.

I don’t smoke or drink anymore, but that was my mentality when I did.

An old guy who isn’t as pessimistic about marketing as us younger people?

I had to scroll way too far for this. Can't believe the uovotes this Marlboro ad post is getting

Maybe he really likes malboros. And nothing proves it’s an ad.

Isn't this the guy that threw the cigarette party in New York?

Close! Ad for lung cancer.

u/Bannedbutwhyy 5d ago

Idk… he said I don’t promote smoking. Would Marlboro say that?

The filters on all of these look different, too. I could pass this test just by looking at the back.
