This reminds me of the efforts made against tobacco and for cleaner air in certain areas, but it also reminds me how we do this for other things too.

Radium toothpaste, lead paint and asbestos curtains.

So, as someone that sees cars as a significant source of pollution, from exhausts, brake pads and tires, I find it ironic that some places are banning outdoor smoking in public areas while it's perfectly acceptable to drive a gas guzzler around and among those places.

Like, I'm so grateful nobody can smoke around me on that restaurant's terrace, this way I can fully enjoy breathing the pollution from the thousand of cars around.

"Lead Paint Girl" ?!? You can't call someone that! Lead is heavy and causes mental retardation (I'm sorry if that word offends you, it's the literal translation of the diagnosis in my language)... Anyway, calling people "lead paint person" indicates that they're both heavy and idiots.

So with no further ado, let me introduce to you, the next president of the United States of America:

Donald "The Lead Paint President" Trump

It could be abbreviated as LPP. Alternative uses of the abbreviation, could revolve around pronouncing the letters PP, and substituting the L with words like "Little", "Leaky" or "Leprous". Finding better words starting with L may be a fun game to play with your friends, when you're hiding in the hidden part of your basement, while armed right wing nut jobs go hunting for libs in the 2028 election.

You can tell that it is because of it wasn't it would have the tobacco brand emblazoned all over it.

As if Marlboro would create a mascot that didn't have their logo on it! They're be walking down the street handing out packs of 20 to kids.

It is a little strange that they are both holding the ends of the cigarette that is supposedly lit with all that smoke.

Yeah, it is. Always check the hands. They're fucked up on the cigarette guy and the guy presumably with cancer.

Put it in this context I do believe we can see where the hospital clowns concept is going
