Is that sign commonly posted in cigar bars? Or is it meant to be cute?

I think it's the law. It wasn't a funny place!

The comments by the guys, by and large, were truthful, and funny because of that. It wasn't a great movie, but it was interesting for what was said.

They have signs like that over here on cigarette packs "cigarettes kill" kind of thing in big bold letters. I wonder if these signs really cause anyone to change their behavior?

I think higher prices are the best incentive for quitting.
It just so happens that today is my 18th year anniversary for quitting smoking. I quit because I wanted to be healthier. Sometime I'd love to figure out how much money I've saved.

Actually the phrase "Ce n'est pas une pipe" is taken from a very famous painting by the French impressionist Rene Magritte. The painting is of a common smoking pipe and on the painting is written "Ce n'est pas une pipe" (This is not a pipe), meaning that what you are actually looking at is not a pipe but the artists interpretation of a pipe. If you see it in cigar bars a lot they're just being cute.
