I know a bunch of alcoholics and party people so I know plenty of zoomers who smoke. I'm guessing you've got a pretty narrow social life OP.

Interesting fact to consider OP. All your coworkers that are getting promoted above you, are probably getting promoted because they are outside smoking cigarettes just chatting with your boss. Makes you think.

This, doomer misanthropy, the fact that Truth ads make not smoking seem like the kind of thing some loving loser narc would do.

Its a *real lovely time to be a young person*. Youre being handed the breakdown of civilization and being told its your generations job to fix it, and being given none of the tools to do so.

Who the gently caress cares if someone smokes. Or drinks. Or does loving pcp. Its all pretty harmful as gently caress.

Caffeine isnt great for you either, and sugar isnt either, let people have their vices, llfe is short and loving miserable, and you will die anyways.

A lot of people smoke at parties. Do you get invited to parties?

Yes, we are inside on the couch or in the basement or each other’s bedrooms doing cool drugs off of each other’s tiddies and asses like hot people in EDM music videos and laughing at our dumb friends who smoke, excusing themselves to go stand in the rain every 25 minutes and inhale a burning tube of paper that makes you feel anxious. It’s very very dumb!

We had a project come in to do security testing on a bluetooth low energy enabled vape pen and my first thought was "smoking is cooler than this".

lmao my company is entirely based off an ap, I never even see 90% of my employees. They probably all smoke, most of them are over 50 and terminally brain damaged from lead. My curiosity is where do Zoomers and young people see smoking in 2021 and go “oh yeah that looks cool and easy to imitate!”

Smoking feels kinda good when youre drinking and/or on coke. Last time I checked people still really like drinking and doing coke.

Menthols after smoking weed is also awesome.

Honestly a generation of nerdy little kids being enraptured with a 90 minute blackface movie rules. I watched SC & SC2 probably 50 times each. Never did the back to back double feature though...

can you even stream Short Circuit these days or did it get pulled like the community episodes

As a millennial I had all 3 co workers pick up smoking at a stressful job just so they could get breaks at work. That was the sign to quit.

Googling such things is actually quite difficult. I don't need to know that something streamed IN THE PAST, but right now.

One time I had such loud sex with my super model girlfriend (thats not my sister in the attached .jpg) and we woke up the entire world and then this big biker dude wanted some because he was jealous so I kicked his rear end. Hell, the sex we were having was so loud that some humpback whales tried to get into my place and tell me how loud I was.

But then I smoked exactly one(1) cigarette and she won't let it go.

My life is a series of complicated small problems.

Cigarette sales increased for the first time in 20 years.

It's because everybody is tired and worn down and needs to work two jobs to maybe afford teeth, op. People yearn for a release, an escape, a quiet 5 minutes outside of bullshit existence.

maybe they need to work two jobs to afford all those cigarettes

Smoking looks cool when a movie star does it in a perfectly shot scene with professional wardrobe and make up and poo poo, when anyone else smokes they just look like a person of walmart.

Precisely. Have you ever IN YOUR ENTIRE LIFE seen someone smoking IRL and thought it looked cool! Pee Ew, that is gross!

You know who smokes? Your fat math teacher Ms. Hanucus with the gross sweat stains under her boobs. No one wakes up and goes “oh yeah, Ms. Hanucus wolfing down a Marlboro Menthol in her car at lunch before she has to come back in here and deal with these animals… basically James Dean!”
