Marlboro Lights

    If Daniel O'Donnell and Niall Horan did cigarettes, they'd do Marlboro Lights. They're softer than Bono throwing rolls of Charmin at a television showing The Fault in Our Stars. Tesco, as it happened, didn't have my usual brand. "F*ck you then," I said (I didn't) and went to another place. Do you think they'd have them? Guess again, my friends.

    My brand is John Player, but if they're unavailable then I usually punt for Mayfair. Sadly, this place had neither and I panicked. "Eh....have you got Marlboro Lights?" I imagine the people behind me in the queue had to hold in the laughter. "We do, yeah," said your one. She hits the button and they come tumbling down the machine.

    "Why didn't I ask for Marlboro Red?" I wonder to myself instantly, but I was philosophical. I go outside and spark up, knowing that I've only got another 19 of these left before I can call myself a real man again. As of writing this there's seven left and I don't like them.

    F*ck you 2017.

    Thanks for the pep talk. I smoke them but I need to quit. I'll remember this sage advice, sure they're like fresh air.

    My mindfulness training abandoned me and I lacked composure in the moment to think of the thousand other possible brands, but Marlboro Lights sprung to mind.

    Benson and Hedges would have been your best bet there.

    20 Carrolls would also work.

    You'd need lungs on you like an ox to get a decent pull from Marlboro Lights.

    Don't worry, they might taste different, but they can still give you cancer.

    I'd rather have cancer than smoke Marlboro Lights again.

    How many left to get through?


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,003 ✭✭✭Hammer89


    Still six I think, but I got a pack of real cigarettes since then so I'll save those sorry excuse for a cigarette for a rainy day I suspect.

    You should probably go to some other doctor.

    Smoke major or don't smoke.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 81,220 ✭✭✭✭biko


    Smoke Lights erry day



    #gangsta


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,986 ✭✭✭✭Giblet


    Rip the filters off Major, smoke it backwards.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,860 ✭✭✭Ragnar Lothbrok


    OP, you are a victim of the ridiculous decision to hide cigarettes away in a big wooden box.

    Throw the remaining Marlboro Lights in the bin, which is the only place they should ever be seen.

    F*ck you 2017.

    Is 2017 the year you come out finally?
    You're only codding yourself with your JP, everyone knows. This time next year you'll be back decrying the fact you've just bought 20 Consulate by "mistake".
