Comments:
A man sits nervously in the waiting room of a dentist’s office, awaiting his examination. A beautiful woman sitting beside him offers him a cigarette to relieve his anxiety. If he can smoke them in a dentist’s office, they can’t be harmful to the throat or teeth, can they? Lucky drives home this message by reminding consumers that its cigarettes “do not irritate your throat.” Most likely, the man is nervous about his appointment because his dentist is about to give him a stern lecture as to the ill effects of smoking, which will be blatantly obvious upon initial examination of his teeth and gums.
