Waste of cash. I mean we all know about these diseases, these commercials clearly arent the first time people have heard of them and even educating people in school doesnt stop them.
I think its a matter of just temptation, people wanna get laid and so they do it. The people who are smart enough to use protection dont need a commercial to tell them, the people that arent wont listen anyways.
Maybe its a negative view but its what I honestly think.
Got Style?
Like the one with the guy and the hole in his throat from smoking. That commercial is so disgusting and i don't think it helps.

Educate B4 U Medicate
Agreed, waste of money. Money should be spent on educating the young
Got Style?
I agree, educating them would be much better than trying to scare them with these nasty commercials and ads.

I think they are useful for some. Alot of ppl are ignorent when it comes to basic thinking. They need to be showed it , or else they would be blind about the outcomes with disease/std's etc. Money wasted on television is all the pointless in your face attitude supporting todays music and current "trends". Now thats a pointless billion doller project.

the most useless "educating" comercials are the anti drug campaigns. Not only do they insult the intelligence of every person watching them, they are also ****ing boring.
The anti drug campaign going on in swedish mtv right now is "drugs are poop" and you se guys snorting shit, sticking there fingers in shit, tasting it and saying "yeah fresh stuff" and so on. Do they realy think that will make anyone care??
If they want kids to not **** they should get someone with bad herpes to go around in schools and drop there pants and show the herpes infected package.

id say most are completely useless. but the one pot commerical always gets to me when the kids says i smoked pot today and nothing bad happened, i didnt get killed, i didnt go to jail, i sat on a couch for 11 hours and did nothing with a few friends. than he talks about the riskier things he could have been doing like taking a girl out on a date, or going to the movies and i think that commerical hits home in a lot of ways because its showing the real side of drugs. makes people realize most of time drugs wont kill you but the bad things that are happening are sometimes so hard to see yet so much worse. idk i just like that one commericial.

its hard to say... i mean, there are alot of stupid people out there that put themselves at serious risk of getting diseases like that. but id like to think that at least some people are more carefull cause of these commercials.
i suppose its better to have these types of comercials than to simply ignore the fact that we got a str8 epidemic of stds goin on right now
