I have noticed a sharp downturn in smoking in the last 5 years. Was it the fitness club craze? People being more health conscious? Was it Tinder? Was it social media dating sites where you have to say whether you smoke, meaning that you are generally only get bites from fellow smokers? Was it the rising social ostracism of smokers? Did people get tired of standing outside in designated areas during shitty weather to feed their habit?

I realize the OT thinks smoking is trashy. When did that finally become the norm? 2005? 2010?

It's always been trashy. I've only dated a few chicks that have 'smoked when they drank' but they really had to make up for that flaw

I'm one of probably 3 people at my work who don't smoke. But I work in the service industry so I'm the oddball for not smoking.

I laugh when I watch old shows like Andy Griffith and they all smoke on there. Oh times have changed
