C’est la vie.

Maybe it’s in the water? “Je ne veux pas travailler / Je ne veux pas déjeuner / Je veux seulement oublier / Et puis je fume”. You tube dot com slash watch?v=pp-wmEKWLSo

Paris hospitals must be full of lung cancer patients.

So long, lung.

It’s true that France has one of the highest smoking rates in the world, but since 2007, to quote Wikipedia, "Smoking and vaping are banned in all indoor public places (government buildings, offices, public transport, universities, museums, restaurants, cafés, nightclubs, etc.)…Additionally, some outdoor public places also ban smoking and vaping (railway stations)…

“In case of violation of tobacco laws, the smoker can face a fine of up to €450 and the owner of the venue up to €750.”

Catherine Deneuve is a major smoker, & outspoken advocate supporting it. Allegedly, & fortunately, it has not “killed” her beauty, acting career, nor her.

I studied French film in college. It was tough watching people smoke at each other for two hours. I’m lucky I didn’t get lung cancer from fourth-hand smoke. :) :(

It’s not Smog. It’s Smug.
