      I was smoking at 12 in France in 1999, I told tobacconists I was buying them for my mom. Pulled the same thing off in the states when I moved there 2 years later. And I was far from alone. These are far more recent (terrible, obviously) habits than you might think.

        Started smoking at 12 too, also in the 90s. Quit in high-school.

      In 1955, basically everyone smoked. Like 65% of Europe were smokers, and I do mean 65% of living humans of all ages.

      Well, the princess is downing a bottle of fortified wine, so it would seem that’s just par for the course.
