Figured if that was the only warning on the box, i was safe.... ;)

Are you saying you used them as a contraceptive?

Your thinking is a little too deep.

I meant that since the warning applied to pregnant women, and there was no chance of my being pregnant, it was safe for me to smoke without risk.

It was a joke... not a very good one, it seems.
:p

You pansies are too busy trying to tell other people how to live their life and not busy enough living your own life.

Shutup.

I agree whole-heartedly my African American Brotha...

We need to stop making laws that prevent the stupid from killing themselves, if we keep this up our gene pool will never be rid of the moron gene ;)

The only warning label that needs to be put on cigarettes packs is a warning that someday you'll have to quit... or else.

Did anyone bother to read either of the bills they're pushing? They put cigarettes under total FDA control. The nationalization of the tobacco industry will be complete.

It's easy prey for the government.

I know I always used to feel better seeing the pregnant women label. I'd think, "Hey, I'm not pregnant and I'm not a woman. These must be okay for me!"

Their script doesn't work, you have to manually add in the period yourself in the URL
