My town has a big billboard up that talks about how we can breathe easy because the town has banned smoking indoors.
The thing is, I've been here for over 10 years and that's been true the whole time I've been here. It's very odd.
i'd be willing to bet they just put it up, and then it either still have the rights to it, because lazy way to spend money on "social progress" or something, or they lost the rights to it, and literally nobody has bought the rights for it since then, so the old ad is still just kicking around up there.
It's a recent thing. Which is part of the oddity.
huh, might be due to vaping then. Maybe they just didnt want to spend the money lmao.
Though to be fair, i do think the rates of people smoking is probably going up, now that we're one or maybe two generations detached from regular smoking, it might start to swing back. Social norms are weird like that.
