Juul Labs suspendió este jueves la venta de cuatro sabores vaporizadores frutales y de postres.

It’s a pleasure to join you Tumblr. My name is Ethan, and I am dedicating this page to all of the terrible people out there. You know who they are, and you know that their terrible deeds often go unpunished. 

My goal is simple. Give an ass-blasting to at least one terrible person per week. Pretty simple. I’ll be focusing more on corporate leaders of terrible companies and focusing less on politicians (I think most politicians are controlled by corporate America anyway, so I don’t really see the point.) 

That brings us to our inaugural bad edit. 

These handsome gentlemen are James Monsees and Adam Bowen, the co-founders of Juul. A “Juul” is a mouth fedora (or vape) commonly worn by college students and trendy assholes. Tyler and Mercedes both know that vaping is bad for you, but they aren’t too worried because they are convinced that they’ll are able to quit pretty easily since they aren’t cheifing cigs. 

Juul is marketed as “a smoking alternative for adults,” which is weird because originally (before these flavors were banned by the government) they came in fun flavors like “fruit medley,” “mango,” and “cucumber.” 

These two guys became BILLIONAIRES after signing a deal with Altria, the biggest tobacco company in the U.S. Here’s a little snippet of what Juul had to say about it: “We understand the controversy and skepticism that comes with an affiliation and partnership with the largest tobacco company in the US. We were skeptical as well. But over the course of the last several months we were convinced by actions, not words, that in fact this partnership could help accelerate our success switching adult smokers.” (https://newsroom.juul.com/juul-statement-about-altria-minority-investment-and-service-agreements/)

You guys were convinced by actions huh? I guess I’d be convinced too if I was given a multi-billion dollar deal... Then again I don’t sell a product which gets kids addicted to smoking ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
