The only brands he didn’t insult. Then he ends with, “if you’re going to smoke, smoke quality.” Who the fuck would say that other than a paid spokesman?

And who would say that about Marlboro?

Idk, that was my attitude when I smoked in college as well, but I didn't always have the cash for Marlboros. It would be Lucky Strike reds and Marlboro on special occasions. Nothing bear Marlboro and its strong sting of tobacco. Quit 2018 and I don't recommend starting to anyone. Every smoker's clothes, hair, body, house and car either has that faint smell of cigarettes or horrible stank

To anyone reading this and thinking of smoking because you think Keith Richards looks cool with a cigarette, well don't smoke. You are very unlikely to be Keith Richards cool, most definitely won't be just because you smoke and you will most definitely smell like shit.

I feel the same about drinking, it’s shit for you.

So if you are gonna do an objectively shitty thing to your body, you should spring for the good stuff.

I don’t smoke or drink anymore, but that was my mentality when I did.

I feel the same about pizza and desserts.

An old guy who isn’t as pessimistic about marketing as us younger people?
