I usually stick to Marlboro Gold, I've tried quite a few different brands and I've always found myself going back to them for some reason. I managed to give up smoking for three whole weeks recently but the urge to have a cigarette just kept getting to me and I just gave in.

The shopkeeper i use to go to said I was the only person under the age of about 40 to ask for Silk Cuts, he told me they were a really popular brand in the late '80's and early '90's, but had fallen out of favor because of cheaper brands.

Does anyone in the U.S. still smoke?

I ran out of rolling tobacco and was forced out of sheer desperation to buy Marlboro brand ciggys. An set of bellows surgically fitted up my arse was needed just to get a decent drag!!! :(

it could have been worse, you could have been in California where you'll be lynched for sparking up within 700 miles of a playground

I still know plenty of people who smoke them, although it could be a different story in the UK. It's mostly Marlboro, John Player, Benson & Hedges and Silk Cut here.

You're not kidding. Once while standing at one of those designated smoking areas, chatting and smoking with another hotel guest, we heard a loud and over dramatic voice coming from the path behind us..."there are people smoking, there are people smoking...kids come this way we'll go this way instead".
You'd have thought we were child molesters waiting to pounce on some unsuspecting kiddies!

Yeah it's absolutely ridiculous, apparently you can't smoke downtown in San Francisco anymore because of some zoning law that doesn't let you smoke within 25 feet of a shop front, which of course means there's nowhere you go can.

Smoking bans in public places are a GOOD thing but I'm not going to vilify smokers for doing what they want in the designated areas. Their body, their life.
