They put crazy images on the packs in the Philippines to deter smoking

Personally it's obnoxious when I'm just trying to walk to the register and I have all these pointless signs that don't work. Makes me want to purchase the product out of spite which was my original point. For those of us that don't it becomes a twisted form of reverse psychology that's like dangling something in front of an individual saying "don't do it!" even if I originally had no desire to to begin with, haha! Like it makes it take a more insidious tone when the government and tobacco companies are working together to profit off people's self destructive nature, ya know. Both are getting in on this behavior which just makes the whole affair a black comedy in itself. "We care about your health...NOW SMOKE! YOU SMOKING YET? Maybe we need to make this clearer. Your purchase helps provide for local government agencies like school systems and the only cost is that bottom dollar in your pocket and a slow death! SO JUST DO IT, YEAH!" https://media1.tenor.com/m/LMGBrTEfk24AAAAd/areyasmokingyet-family-guy.gif

I think they worked for the most part. I don't see nearly as many young smokers now and honestly for the last decade.

My nephew tried vapes and said he didn't like the way they make him feel. That's a W.

My mother reassures that "stubborn" and "narcissistic" are two different things. Much like "introvert" and "shy".

Just got yet another letter of a data breach where all my personal info was leaked. Got offered another 2 years of free identity monitoring. What is the fuckin point of identity protection?? These assholes leak my data so often my free services from the last set of morons that leaked my data haven’t even expired yet! Pointless services piss me off. I’m literally going to sign up for the services out of bitterness just so that it costs them money.

I asked my daughter if she wanted a banana, she says "Banana!", I proceed to peel and give it to her... She proceeds to break it in half and throw it in the litter box. She then screams, I then let her open one, she grabs it, peels it, sets it down and doesn't not eat it. Moment ruined, Dada... MOMENT. RUINED!!!! She wanted to peel the first one and not have me do it. Don't know what these feral little humans want!!! lol

My brother was born special needs and sadly has had seizures ever since he was born. He's been on medication for psychotic/bipolar behavior that made him gain a lot of weight. My mom is normal weight and barely eats anything, she thinks calories and meat are the devil she tries to starve him unless it's a can of coke, cereal and some toast in the morning with maybe a egg,and his dad is pretty overweight, lazy and gives him shit like soda, cookies and McDonald's. He's almost 500 lbs at 24 years old and they don't want to change anything, and they think the healthy food I make is weird lol. He has seizures every night and sometimes in the day, I wish I could take over his diet but they're too set in their ways and would rather kill him slowly. I'd also post this in the something I'd hate forum but I'm not gonna double post.

Another shitty win for capitalism and corporations @-@. I wish people would boycott those grain products especially with how pricey cereal is now apparently. @verucassault
