Am I the only one who thinks he sounds mentally-slow in those ads? Or is he trying too hard to speak too deliberately?

he should have stayed away from the plastic surgery
Posted on 12/18/18 at 4:57 pm to hsfolk
his face is so seized up he can barely talk

Watching him on those ads makes me want to never take Chantix

He says he was a lifelong smoker.
Quitting at age 64 ain't gonna help you man.
He should just continue smoking and frick Chantix and enjoy life.
I knew a woman who smoked a pack a day since age 14 until she died at age 96 still smoking till the end...and she died in her sleep not from any cancer.

I'm sure glad I've never wanted to start smoking

This again?

my grandmother smoked for 50 years. She did die from smoking (COPD) but she made it to 90.

At 90 it could be argued that 90 years of oxygen was more responsible for her death than 50 years of smoking,

Ray looks like he needs to be an AIDS spokesman

There's tons of reasons to quit smoking at 64, there's a lot more to it than just cancer risk.

Yeah heart disease, etc.
But heart disease is mostly genetic.
External forces or behaviors often have little impact on genes...or the code, ticking inside you.
If he's smoked for 40 years, whatever damage that is going to harm him is done. He isn't going to reverse that by not smoking.
Most damage done by smoking is the early years...15-30. Especially under age 18...if you start smoking under age 15-16, you are twice as likely to develop lung cancer than those who smoked just as long as you but started later.
If Ray has survived this long with being a lifelong smoker, he isn't reversing heart disease damage at this point when he probably has only about 10 years left anyways per average American lifespan.

What a grim outlook on life. You must be a depressed doctor.

He does sound like he's had some kind of problem. There's plenty of people who smoke and have had plastic surgery that don't sound like Ozzy Osbourne

This is awful advice.

Or maybe she was destined to live to 130 and smoking took her life 40 years early???

Got any other hot takes?

Yeah, tell Ray to enjoy life and if he loved smoking (since he did it his entire life) do what he loves doing at his age.
And you should never take these non-smoking drugs. They are rife with suicidal side-effects...don't work and do more harm than good.
First rule of Medicine, do no harm.
"Curing himself" after years of abuse isn't reality.
Chantix?
Plenty of people have gotten cancer and plenty of people have lived long lives smoking...it's not black and white and Ray is 64...not 24. Whatever damage he's done is already done.
He should enjoy his life at this point. Smoking is stupid but if he liked it as a lifelong smoker than so be it.

He has enough botox in his face to wipe out a maternity ward.
