When I was a kid the old people in my family all chain smoked when we went out to eat. I hated eating with them because of that. I seriously thought my aunt was 15 years older than my mom because of her chain smoking and alcoholism aged her. Found out after she died she was only 3 years older.

What I remember most is coming back from concerts reeking of cigarettes and having to immediately throw my clothes in the wash and take a shower. Going to shows got so much more enjoyable after they banned indoor smoking at clubs.

Ashtrays everywhere. Companies marketing for kids who proudly make massive branded ashtrays, like McDonalds.

I got told to turn my Joe Camel shirt inside out in the 8th grade. I didn’t understand. I was so rad and so was he.

Good lord the times have changed thank goodness.

At least the ashtrays can still be used, one of my buddies uses them for coasters and I want to use one for screws when I work on stuff.

Even just going to a restaurant or bar got so much more enjoyable.
