I'm going to start smoking so I can look cool
I'm forty, single, balding, nerdy, out of shape. I got a 13 year old kid, a humdrum job, and terrible taste in music. There's only one thing to do that will turn my life around, and by criminy I'm gonna do that. Look out, world, he comes the new "Smokin' Bucky"!



Oh yeh! I'm the coolest NOW, baby.

1. it's about time
you lost most of your chance to be cool in your formative years, but Joe Camel can still push you over the top. Think about it, it's really the only way your kid will think you're anything but a loser.

come on, you know you want one...chicks dig it.

5. Why stop there? You should add some tattoos...and piercings.
Then you'll really be cool.

And make sure that you wear really baggy pants, and let the waistline fall down to below the lower half of your ass.

Chicks really love that kinda stuff.

6. Smoke crack
that's really cool. and then you wouldn't have to worry about that humdrum job. You'd start going out, listening to the hippest dance music, most likely get a criminal record - now all that would be cool. You could go to prison and be killed in a prison riot. THAT would be cool.

Or, you could whimp out and commit suicide on the installment plan as per your cig smoking plan. Oh yeah, cool.

reformed smoker here - the most obnoxious type of smoker.

11. Why not consider becoming a flasher?
You could wander around naked but for a dirty brown trenchcoat, patent leather shoes, socks (with sock suspenders - gotta have the suspenders) and terrify the populace.
How's that sound? Shouldn't interfere with your tobacco based duties.

15. Eight Dollars... WHERE?
The reason I quit was because they had finally hit $45 a carton. Otherwise I'd still be smoking.

or you can simply tear the filters off of L&M's or Pall-Mall's. The cool kids are all smoking Lucky Strikes... filterless.

16. Are you that guy from "Small Town Estascy"
There was a documentary where some divorced 40 year old man with 4 kids went through serious mid-life crisis and decided to go to raves and take E

If you think you need to smoke for self-esteem, maybe you should get therapy instead!
