    No shit, I was about his age when I started smoking. I grew up deep in hillbilly Appalachian country and all of the kids I grew up with smoked. I only knew two kids in my whole neighborhood who didn’t smoke and one of them started in their 30s for some reason.

    My brother and I robbed a delivery truck when we were 11 and 13 and stole two full boxes of Camel cartons.

      The gif is of a 2 year old Indonesian kid who made the internet rounds some years ago for smoking two packs a day and the parents “couldn"t stop him”.

      He quit smoking later though.

        Oh yeah, I seen it. Thank you though. I got caught smoking my first cigarette at four years old in my cousins bedroom. So I’m really not that far off, not that it’s any kind of contest.
