I don't even remember the ads. All the cool kids were smokin', and that's all the influence I needed. I wasn't the sharpest knife in the drawer at 17... or was it 16?... somewhere around there.
Now, as for liquor -- I was enormously influenced by the ads. Thankfully (for me), none of that stuff tasted anywhere near as cool as it looked in the adverts. So that's one habit I didn't abuse.
