Aren't you thinking of red shirt, as in the extras that would get killed in Star Trek?

I don't remember any of them being especially slutty though...

Then you shouldn't be surprised when people think you are angry and bitter.

Your interpretation is not fact.
I know if I am angry and/or bitter and have no issue telling anyone, you are wrong.

And I have no problem telling you that you have obviously misread my post.

Well yes, but we were on a hat theme, so I figured maybe he'd accessorize in a matching fashion. And the slutty bit is from a different stereotype, that if you have sex in an American horror movie then you will definitely be the first one dead.

D'oh. Subtlety is obviously wasted on me

People smoke IRL.. They poop too. You're alllowed to poop at any age, and it's healthy, yet we don't see that often in kid-rated movies. But you're not allowed to smoke until your 18 and it's unhealthy, yet you can show that in kid-rated movies. Go figure.

People drive in them too and it kills more than smoking. Kids can't drive, we must stop driving in kids movies!!!

I smoke a cigar or pipe once a week or two, I drink once a month or so... that is what my son will see as a role model and who will teach him about tobacco and alcohol, not the television/film.
As for what is cool, I am/will teach and show him that those ruled by their vices are FAR from cool and not to trust television, movies, or ads. If you can't do that, you should not have kids.
End of story.

Any education/authority, I will teach him to second-guess them as well.

Anyone with an agenda should not be trusted at face-value, EVER. I will teach him that that is a weakness.

What happens rk, if your son takes your example and starts to smoke a small amount, then gets badly addicted to nicoteine?

If you smoke small amounts you can't get badly addicted to nicotine... or at all.
What happens if you take one drink a week and smoke a pipe/cigar the same way you become badly addicted to alcohol and tobacco?
You are in a fictional scenario.
