about Release
I'd use my own charge card to buy this shirt but wouldn't want to advertise for the tobacco corporations (or the pot ones either)! Wish the dude would lose the smokes.

Same here. I loathe smoking after I've seen what it does to lungs.



Nastiest thing I've ever seen.

yeah, i get the feeling this is more about chilling out with pot (RELEASing tension) and watching the world go to hell than just 'joe cool smoking a cig', but either is bad to me.

but in a way, it symbolizes hoe both are bad- factory pollution and smoking....but i doubt that was the intention.

really trav, i thought that was its intention.....well, that is what i take out of it........each poluting in their own way.......otherwise its pro-pollution, and i cant see how it would get printed with that message...

but it's so 'dreamy' i think the intention was to compare the 'natural, herbal' smoking to the industrial pollution.

   Luke... on Oct 11 '05 at 11:10pm
yea, i can see that....i just thought it was a slap to them smokers, showing how there sweet release is killin the world and all their dear loved ones.....

Love the shirt either way... but it's my impression that'd be a cigarette. :P Cigarette smokers as far as I've seen are more prone to holding a cigarette in their mouth than tokers are to keep a blunt there. *nods* Mm... must quit smoking. XD



Other things killing the planet:

GMO's

YOUR CAR

Budget Airlines

Industrial Capitalism

DuPont

Cows



It's also my impression that long before all of these things takes it's toll on our beloved dirt & h2o ball, a meteor will come kill us all, rendering my single-minded effort of exhaling CO into the atmosphere fruitless.



I MAY be somewhat overcompensating by refusing to use fossil fuels. I'm a perpetual pedestrian, woot. Either way, I don't want to hear how I'm killing the world unless it's coming from someone living in a hand-woven tent cropped up in the middle of the wilderness where the individual indicating such to me is *utterly* living off of the land and wasting nothing, because if you're NOT out there tree-hugging, animal loving, plant growing, you're part of the problem.

i don't hate smokers...i just hate people in general...hehe, just kidding.

The smoke sometimes makes my eyes water and gives me a headache.

hey, guys...i dont hate smokers.....i hate smoking....

it is purely evil...it'll grab a hold of your life and lungs and squeze the goodness out.......just does bad things to you and those around you........and yes there are alot of pollutants out there, but for the most part they have or provide something benefical....yes, some are very much overkill.....but, still.....

i guess what i really hate is 'destructive self-indulgance'.....';]

It's just a shirt...it's more about the guy relaxing thanpromoting cigarrette use.

That's the only reason why I didn't buy it.

I feel the same way. I dont want a shirt with a guy smoking on it. Althought I did like the factories part.

I know of someone who took up smoking because he wanted to see what an addiction felt like.



So sad.

Same here, I thought this shirt was gorgeous, but then I saw the little smoke swirls and realized that I don't want a shirt showing smoking as the way to find peace. Yuck.

Wow.. i can't believe this topic even came up. I think they're getting that everything's shot to hell anyway, (ie, corporation's exploding in cities, creating big business and destroying the once beautiful world). Implode's totally right. Anyone live in New York City, here? you're more likely to get killed in an ally or hit by a car then to die from smoking (by the way, most bothers you in old age, when EVERYTHING does). Heh.. how come everyone cares so much about smoking that other people do, if you care so much, dont drive cars.

I thought that it was supposed to be ironic that the man in the picture went outside of the city to get away from the pollution, but is polluting his own lungs with a cigarette (as many people who complain about industrial pollution also polute in other ways such as smoking, care exhaust, etc.)

You know, anybody can quit smoking, but it takes a real man to stand up to cancer.





Plus, smoking is just so great. I wouldn't want to live without it anyway.

If I were a cow, I would say "moo" right now, but since I'm not...



This is a pretty awesome shirt. Dunno what my mom would think if I bought it, though. =|
