I was second-hand smoking two packs a day until I was 13 (when my mom got lung cancer). But back then, every kid I knew was doing the same. Now, seeing people smoking is a relatively rare occurrence.

    I'm a school bus driver and a majority of my colleagues smoke. Some things will never change.

    At least switch to vaping. It's 95% less harmful, especially if you go with an open mod and not sketchy gas station liquid.

    What do you mean it's less harmful? You're pulling in smoke of course it will be detrimental for your lung. Saying it's less harmful is just a blatant example of self-gaslighting

    I was a grown ass adult before I knew how awful cigarettes smelled simply because I was always surrounded by smoke I just thought that was how the world smelled.

    I knew it stank, hated that shit growing up. But I didn't realize just how fucking godawful it was until I moved out. My stuff reeked for months, or years if it was stored.

    Yep they smoke with windows rolled up in the cars, and in the house. Hell it was rare to find someone who didn't smoke. Then they got all shocked when we all picked up the habit as well when we got old enough to do so.

    Luckily for my kids I quit when they were young and yeah I don't really know anyone who smokes cigarettes anymore.
