Now that he has turned 16, he has decided that it is time to make a change. The first thing he can do is finally have his own dirt bike, but he is certainly not satisfied with that. In fact, he has been smoking 5/8 cigarettes a day for about a year and a half, mostly light and "teenage" ones. But now he knows what he needs, now he fills his lungs only with heavy Marlboros, like real men do. He has decided that he is going to be a tough, virile male, and is now rapidly increasing his daily cigarettes with the goal of getting to 30 (1.5 ppd) Reds a day by 17. It is an ambitious and insane goal, but it is what males do and his young lungs are capable of it. He is already proving it with the color of the filters of the 15 cigs he has come to smoke: dark yellowish brown, with black charred centers. This is achieved by long, deep inhalations that end with a moment of holding inside and then a long exhalation in a large cloud of smoke as in the photo.
His friends noticed his transformation, how cool he is becoming, and so they also decided to follow him on his path to become bad and virile boys. Everyone understood how cool it is to see all those clouds and that such young lungs are already able to destroy the filters in that way. They admire him and some joke and point out that he produces more smoke than his motorbike when he revs up.
By now his transformation is irreversible, the addiction and cigs can only increase, and this makes him happy, proud and self-confident.
