Yeah, I don't get it. Wanna cigarette? Was that the punchline?

I'm not against one page scripts. They can be exceptional. This one wasn't. You didn't even bother with names. Come on. Give the people names.

I'd be lying if I said I didn't intend this to have some kind of punchline. Basically, introducing the cigarettes renders the vegan vs. carnivore issue moot. The irony is that while arguments can be made for both sides, no argument can be made for smoking. It's bad for you. That's it. As for the SUPER... What can I say? It's cheesy.

I'd also be lying if I said I didn't conceive and write this within ten minutes. I'd be lying still if I said I intended for anyone to think it was funny. There's really nothing to get here. It's just a dumb one pager designed to confound the readers and make them think WTF more than anything.

Finally, I'd like to dissuade anyone from thinking this was anti-smoking. Just want to put that out there. In the end, it was just a stupid little short and something that I didn't need to post. I knew what I was getting into nevertheless. Whatever. I've still got a serious entry out there.
