    Oh ive heard the stories, but well the smell and look of a 99 cents store filled with smokers and every adult at the park smoking a cigarette is burned into my brain. I know what I missed since the old tech I mess with will sometimes have the smell absorbed into it so badly I need to make a vinegar solution and leave it in the sun to ge the smell out. Im just saying that I have an inkling of how bad it was at its peak, and can say im fucken glad kids these days arent exposed to it nearly as much.

      I got some really cute clothing for my kids from a friend I was helping move who smokes heavily, and I’ve washed it 3 times and it still smells of cigarettes…

      She also gave us some totes which I scrubbed with vinegar and dawn in the bathtub which turned the water brown but it still smells a bit of cigarettes. Some pancake mix from their pantry literally tastes like cigarettes. Good riddance to smoking!
