those are commonly found adds everywhere you goif you dont want to read it then dont!but if they are giving the coast funding then hell why not
Would you rather PAY for The Coast?
Where the fuck do you think ad money is going to come from, an independent organic vegetable farm?
gotta love how illegal cig ads are
Hey baby, stick it to the man and their big corporations! Yeah, let’s get rid of those ads!!!Oh, BTW, the next Coast will cost you $2.50. Pay up.
Oldtimers might remember when AA ran “an independent organic vegetable farm”esque adds telling the world about how they don’t use sweatshop labour blah blah blah. Read something the other day by the guy who started the company, eventually he realized that sex sells better than appealing to the consumer conscience. So, you might not like the AA adds, but you can rest knowing that they are indeed “OK”, they just like having teenaged girls stick their asses in the air instead of flying the social conscience freak flag.
