Endorsement: Smoke cigarettes and jam!

Freedom has a new name and it's Donovan Frankenreiter!

Big Tobacco is still such a frowned upon industry. Maybe because smoking has been scientifically proven to cause lung cancer? Maybe because the cigarette companies sat on research for many many years that pointed to this conclusion? Maybe because the cigarette companies actively targeted children, trying to squeeze a few extra years of profit out of young lives?

I don’t know but something made the government very mad. In the United States cigarette companies can’t advertise anywhere. Not in magazines, not on TV, not even on race cars. No celebrity ever endorses and only way-past-their-prime celebrities endorse e-cigarettes. Like Stephen Dorff.

Lame.

And how are the children supposed to latch on if they don’t ever see any one cool in a cigarette ad? How are they supposed to give it a try?

Well China doesn’t have our lame hang-ups and presenting……….

Donny Darts!

This is exactly the sort of image that the get the cool kids into the game. A fat, yellow board. A guitar. A soul arch.

China is already whooping our asses with their manufacturing and business shit. Now their next generation is going to be ruling the image game too. A bunch of little, yellow James Deans standing on street corners being way cooler than school.

Fuck!

Thanks a lot Donovan Frankenreiter.

China is whooping our asses at nothing except manufacturing low quality garbage with child labor. And a Chinaman can never really look badass in my opinion; only friendly and non-threatening.

nyc surfing golden boy

donny pre 1997 was the fucking ripper and was hanging in solid surf with a good, lanky new school style. in a just a few years, he came the first archetypal mold of “soul surfer” that changed boards and started soul arching for the camera. cunts like knost and ellis are the same.

In 10 years maybe Donny Dart can get an inhaler sponsorship, Advair TM, Spiriva TM, and or Serevent TM for his black lunged COPD’d barrel chest.
