i've said it before here, i've said it in the tom holland thread, and i'll say it in the thread of any other european, smoking is, unfortunately, hella normalized here and people start smoking at a very young age. it'll be pouring rain and people will be at a café's or pub's outdoor area trying to shield themselves from the rain while smoking. regulations to ban indoor smoking in those places, covid, all the nasty ass pics in cig packs, cig machines being off until you request at the counter to turn it on, they do nothing to deter people.
those of us who aren't smokers are considered more of an oddity than those who smoke
