But he was always sucking on his fags and he paid for them fair and square.
And do you have any idea how high fags are taxed in this day and age?
It's not like when I was a boy. I was sucking fags left and right without a care in the world about paying for them. Granted pretty often they were the cheaper sort that you got from cruise-boats, tax free.
Pic related, it's one of those boats for cruising. I've also heard them referred to as "fuckboats" but honestly it's more the tax-free that pulls in people.
At some point in the late 90s or early 2000s they banned cigarette advertising.
I didn't think about it but at this point i don't know any brands anymore. My father smoked players when I was young, and Benson and hedges used to sponsor some public events but otherwise I guess it worked.
That or cigs got too expensive to smoke brand name. My grandfather, before he died of lung cancer was smoking big clear bags of cigs from the reserve.
I haven't smoked in 4 year, still every single day something happens and think about how much I want one. I've started chewing nicotine gum to help with the urges after quoting vaping, but now I'm just addicted to expensive gum.

Still sounds kinda gay
On more than one occasion, people were able to tell the guy who was with me was my boyfriend because we smoked the same brand of cigarettes

Funny, back in my day the people who smoked P-funks were the ones most likely to have yayo!
