1 The Truth? These turn me more onto smoking than turn me off and I don't even smoke. -- Submitted By: () on August 5, 2012, 9:32 pm - (0 votes) - Login to Vote
2 one I particularly remember is one where they claimed that a radioactive element (polonium 220 or something) was in cigarettes. I looked it up in the periodic table and it wasn't even a real isotope. -- Submitted By: (wambamsam) on August 4, 2012, 7:37 pm - (1 votes) - Login to Vote
3 LOL Point taken. -- Submitted By: (Soggy9000) on May 6, 2011, 3:24 am - (0 votes) - Login to Vote
4 Now Soggy, that can't be true. Otherwise you wouldn't be able to stand me ;-) -- Submitted By: (DolFan316) on May 5, 2011, 5:08 am - (0 votes) - Login to Vote
5 Any site, regardless of its subject matter, which calls itself The Truth automatically bones. (That goes for people who include the word "truth" in their online screen names.) It's a word redolent of self-importance, and self-importance annoys me more than damn near anything else on the planet. -- Submitted By: (Soggy9000) on May 5, 2011, 4:02 am - (0 votes) - Login to Vote
6 I, too, am tempted to light up just to spite TheTruth.com. Their commercials and ads are stupid beyond belief and they're condescending to the point it makes me sick. -- Submitted By: (BigAl) on October 27, 2010, 8:54 am - (1 votes) - Login to Vote
7 The commercials are absolutley stupid, the "truth" they preach (and that's using the term lightly) is bogus... it makes me want to go out and smoke to. -- Submitted By: (PYLrulz) on June 20, 2010, 11:31 pm - (2 votes) - Login to Vote
8 Should let people kill themselves over a period of 30-50 years. Who says we have to live til 90? When someone is carting us around half brain-dead. -- Submitted By: (Niggarachi) on November 16, 2009, 8:36 am - (0 votes) - Login to Vote
9 Who can blame you, Stephanie...I don't smoke, and even I'm tempted to light up just to spite the Truth. -- Submitted By: (Robert) on September 24, 2009, 1:06 pm - (0 votes) - Login to Vote
10 I agree with Robert! These commercials make you WANT to smoke. I fire one up everytime one of these ads come on T.V. -- Submitted By: (Stephanie) on September 15, 2009, 11:30 am - (1 votes) - Login to Vote
11 The truth lies. Oh, the irony. -- Submitted By: (Robert) on May 23, 2009, 10:31 am - (0 votes) - Login to Vote
12 Rather than using false/exaggerated information, put it in terms teenagers will care about. Don't make it about health for one thing... teenagers have always thought themselves invincible and these commercials won't convince them otherwise. Put it in terms of money saved by not smoking now that it's so expensive, then translate THAT into what the teenage demographic would like to purchase (Game Consoles, HDTV's, cell phones, etc.). Way more effective. Also, don't have a group of adolescents that are lamer than your average high school Christian club and you might have a campaign on your hands. -- Submitted By: (Dropmurphy) on May 20, 2009, 3:45 am - (1 votes) - Login to Vote
13 I'm nonsmoker myself but their ads seem to be such heavyhanded, sermonizing dirges that they even turn ME off so I wonder why they think they'll get undecided teens to never be tempted to smoke? -- Submitted By: (Pelirojo) on May 10, 2009, 2:01 pm - (1 votes) - Login to Vote
14 Truth commercials are so stupid they people WANT to smoke. -- Submitted By: (Robert) on May 9, 2009, 2:11 pm - (0 votes) - Login to Vote
