Smoking GAF: What do you say to a teen that asks you for a cigarette?

This happened to me the other day, a kid from across the street yelled at me 'Can I have one?!'

I said 'one what?'

He was obviously not the age to be smoking, nor the age to be yelling from across the street. I did not give him a cigarette, and said 'these things will kill you.'

What do you do in this situation?

No chance. Even when I was a smoking teenager I wasn't bumming them from strangers. I was paying people to go in the shops for me like everyone else until I got a fake ID.

Work for your vice.

Ask how old are you.

Don’t give one if he’s a minor.

Smoking is very addicting. If I had a choice, I wouldn’t have smoked at all. It’s also a negative influence upon your circle of friends. I, myself, smoked my first one because I saw friends and family members do it.
 
The spokesman for a group of teens hanging around a gas station told me he was missing his wallet and if I could be a bro and buy them some beer with their cash. I told them sorry but no and they respectfully left it alone.

I've never had a kid ask me for a fag. I guess they all vape now.

I tell the kids I’ll buy them a carton if they can recite the lyrics to Hits From The Bong. So far all have failed. Products of bad parenting I guess

As a former kid that used to hang around outside the video rental shop waiting for one of the "big kids" to ask to rent 18 rated films for me, I pay it forward.
