It seems more like giving off the motto: being adamant about stopping to smoke kills. Or anger kills.

And how come there's a cendar in a non-smoking office?
What do you mean, that's not the point?

I thought the whole thing was amusing, even if it wasn't exactly sensitive.

What a load of bovine crap. This is a textbook example of humorless people trying to be interesting. The people who made this must have been encouraged too much as children.

I'd suggest that the people who made this are still being encouraged as children.

Heh, touché.

I'd say it was farily tasteless, but more importantly, not funny.
