If any teens talk about these condoms, they'll probably be laughing at them. Kind of like those "Truth" ads for cigarettes. I don't smoke but that ad campaign is so annoying it almost makes me want to light up. Teens are wayt oo marketing savvy for this kind of stuff now.

LMAO! that is way back. i havent heard "jimmie hat" in ages, and it since had shifted to referring to the actual jimmy hat--the one that goes on ur head, the one that sits on ur neck...

as far as the truth hats, i think its the best anti smoking ad campaign ive seen. it may not be effective to teens as much as it would like, but they take it to the streets, and it sure beats the "antidrug" campaign, with the black mother who has her son on ld cause she causght him smoking...

plz. gimme a break.
