I want to know how that photoshoot went down.
"Hey, Yolanda, we'll give you a thousand bucks if you let some guy who couldn't make it in Hollywood blow smoke in your face from a few inches away. But you have to pretend you like it."

Back in the smoking days, they'd say blowing smoke in someone's face is code for you wanna do it right now. We used to talk about it at parties. None of us understood who it was code for. Probably swingers before us punkers in the 80s. Anytime you did it on accident, people would crack jokes like hey now you gotta go screw your buddy Steve or your sister or whatever. Kind of like accidentally giving someone a green m+m.
I remember that being a thing back in the 60s - it was supposed to be super sexy. Of course it was anything but. We all smelled of stale smoke back then though. Our parents all smoked (my dad didn't, but he was an outlier); there were ashtrays everywhere, including in cars and planes; you bought cigarettes by the carton and the brand defined you. I started smoking at 15 or 16. Totally normal.

Different times I guess. Hard for me to imagine anything less sexy than getting, or for that matter giving, a snoot full of cigarette smoke at close range.
Maybe it's something that makes sense if you're a smoker?
Odd, because blowing smoke up someone's ass is somehow much more G-rated.
Blowing smoke up someone's ass is a way to stop them from drowning. Or it was.
Elaborate

Better written than I could put forth.
I like that the pack says "about 5 for 25¢" like they don't know how many are in the box.
Haha yeah that got me too. "Might be 4 plus a half cigarette remainder. Might be 5 and 2/3. But around 5 somewhere, we are pretty sure."
Ir depends, sometimes Eddy would have a couple too many at lunch, and you'd get a series of boxes with only three, if that. Sometimes he'd somehow pack seven in there. Five is an average.
I mean, maybe when the math works out it's something like 4.83 for 25c or 5.11 for 25c. Probably the former, or else they would have marketed it as 5 for less than 25c or something
"Blow in her face and she'll follow you anywhere."
I'm pretty sure I dated her before the restraining order.
Now people exchale their grape/cherry/whatever vape and the whole room gets to enjoy it /s
Blow it in my face and the only thing you'll get is hands.
The only reason I'd follow someone after that is to burn their house down.
Allegedly.
Ah, yes. Get her addicted to second-hand smoke. As long as she never realizes she can buy her own cigarettes, she'll follow you around anywhere. It's the perfect plan!
I think I saw this on Graham Norton. Possibly episode where Jon Hamm was a guest.
