Follies of the Mad Men #63

Was this behavior ever really sexy or cool, or a good way to pick up women?

"Blow in her face..."

Are they talking about cigarette smoke?

It's a medically-proven fact: women like jerks.

Um, kingmonkey, let me be the first to ask - How exactly is this a medically proven fact???

I think this supposed to be a play on the 'Laugh-In' joke, "Blow in my ear and I'll follow you anywhere."

But I can think of half-dozen scenes from old movies where blowing smoke in someone's face was clearly an insult, so no, it was never cool.

C'mon, Skitt, didn't you read that study in JAMA last year?

There was a study? Determining that women like jerks? Really? Are you kidding me? I'm stunned.. :lol:

Tipalets are more like cigars. So of course, cigar smoke works differently than cirarette smoke.

She pukes first, then chases you out the door to slowly kill you off in the parking lot.

Maybe women would prefer pipe smokers?

I think you're right, Patty ~ that's the only way it would make any sense to me!

Chattanoga? Probably not there.

Winston-Salem NC perhaps.

Kingmonkey says, "Maybe women would prefer pipe smokers?"

I never met a woman who didn't hate the taste of cigars, and generally I agree with them. But when I smoked a pipe I often got compliments from women on how nice the smoke smelled. And it didn't seem to matter what flavor of tobacco it was.
