  I guarantee its the ban on indoor smoking.

  That one roasted even the non smokers. It was unavoidable for poor genx

  Gen Z/A is going to look even more youthful with their lower alcohol consumption.

    Not with the addiction of social media. Stress and anxiety are bad for your health.

      Mate are you implying Millenials aren’t stressed?

        We are, but z and alpha have literally grown up with an iPad in their face. They are probably more addicted to social media which is known to fuck with your dopamine levels.

  That’s really what it is. Smoking ages you hard

    It ages the people around you too. That’s a big part of what’s changed.

  I watched a documentary last night about an event that occurred in the 80s. They would give the age of the individual along with the name. In every single case the person looked about 10 years older than I am. Not just the hairstyle but the actual age showing on their face.

  I am at least 4 years older than every single person mentioned at the time they were pictured.

  About half the people pictured died as a result of this incident. So it’s not like it was a picture from years later.

  Smoking and sun exposure are motherfuckers for aging

  I smoke and people still think I’m 10 years younger than I am. 🤷

    How long you been smoking for?

    My MIL looks 20 years older than she actually is, but I saw photos of her from 30 years ago and she looked pretty normal

    Seems to hit as you get older, and obviously self a on quantity smoked

      Except for a 3 year period where I quit, 23 years.

  Millennials smoked a lot and still do. And the more recent generations have simply moved to vapes.

  So yeah, people still smoke.

    Elder millennials are the last to remember what smoking actually was. We remember restaurants with smoking and non-smoking sections. We remember a time before the “smoke break”, when you didn’t leave your desk to smoke, you just lit up and continued to work.

    Millennials smoke in designated outdoor smoking areas. Boomers smoked in grocery stores.

      I’m GenX and I remember smoking in grocery stores, movie theatres, offices, buses, airplanes…everywhere. People used to smoke while eating.

      I knew people who’d smoke 2 packs a day, and one guy who’d smoke 3 (basically a cigarette in his hand every minute of the day, sometimes with a second one burning in the ashtray). Having a puff while you’re out drinking doesn’t even count as smoking in comparison.

    You got numbers or just feelings?

      They likely smoke and assume they’re the norm.
