I love these old ads. Can you imagine if they ever made anti-sex ads? We all would have been fucking in the streets at age 11.

You have to see this video… It tells me that if I do drugs I will get to sit in hot tubs, ride around in limos, hang out with beautiful chicks, and overall have a great social life. As laura clearly states, 80’s antidrug videos rock!

Funny that it has Whitney “Crackhead” Houston and Governor Arnold “Juicehead” Schwartzenegger, two fine upstanding drug addicts!!!
