I'm pretty sure I've never seen an anti-smoking ad that did anything but make me want to buy some cigars. This one is no exception. Perhaps these ads are being secretly funded by tobacco companies?

Well, the animation is certainly old-fashioned, but the general feeling of self-righteousness reminds me more of what they were doing in the mid-1990's.
