: I wonder if Kevin or Mewes has ever thought about doing a non-smoking PSA (public service announcement). I don't mean as Jay & Silent Bob, either, just them. Could you see that? I doubt they'd ever get the offer, unfortunately.

I could never see it happening. Anyway, smoking is cool - it makes you look grown-up and attractive.
Seriously though, anti-smoking campaigners are the most annoying, pompous, pious and self-important tossers on the planet. Without delving into the rights and wrongs of smoking (I know there's plenty of good arguments for both sides), anti-smoking campaigns have been irreparably tainted by preaching idiots, and anyone who takes up the reins now will just be despised.
Nothing personal to anyone - if you don't like smoking, you don't like smoking. But I'll stop smoking when I damn well feel like it, not because some half-baked "celeb" tells me I should.
