cute mom btw
That leather coat mom is wearing is fucking fire. Wonder how much a real leather jacket like that would cost today?
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 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.
those things ppl use to quit vaping?
Wish I had a mom
When I was a kid my parents didn’t let me use a lighter to light fireworks so they gave me a lit cigarette instead.
I think I just remembered something similar
They sell punk for this. They look like incense sticks without any scent. Just a smoldering slow burning stick, used to light fireworks with.
Mosquito coils work excellent as well.
Me too. “It lasts a lot longer and isn’t nearly as dangerous since it isn’t an open flame,” they told me.
I like how they have the same haircut
I remember @ 7-8yo going to the local convenience store with a note to buy my mom cigarettes.
Same. Hell I remember wearing a Benson&Hedges sports cap (oxymoron if I heard one…) up until the age of 16, despite having never smoked
🎶 It was acceptable in the 80s 🎶
Still acceptable in Vietnam. Shocking to me, a tourist.
“Back before cigarettes were bad for you. See? No warning labels.”
Hold the smoke deeply in your lungs – it’s the best thing for you!

And then your fingers stank for an hour.
But at least she never got a yeast infection
How the hell could someone smoke cigs in the 70’s and not be able to grasp it in their lips while using both hands?
Not lady like. That’s old man smoking.
All the cool kids held their cigarettes pinched between thumb and second finger. None of this first and second finger V-shape weakness
I’m old, the most offensive thing about this is that indestructible percolator.
On the stove? I believe that is for gravy.
I like the cut of your jib.
This could be a picture of my father and grandmother. Like, I think we have one of the same scene.
That’s why Paul Simon wrote a whole song about Kodachrome.
Great tune
Dorothy Hamill haircut. So popular back then.
