Tobacco companies call them “replacement smokers” parents call them their children.
Laws limited the advertising of tobacco products in mass media, so Fred and Barney couldn’t sell cigarettes to kids anymore…right?

A young couple moves into a new neighborhood. The first morning, while they are eating breakfast, the young woman sees the neighbor hang up the wash outside.
“That laundry is not very clean,” she said, “she doesn’t know how to wash correctly. Perhaps she needs another laundry soap.”
The husband looked on, but remained silent.
Every time her neighbor would hang out the wash, the young woman would make the same comment.
About one month later, the woman was surprised to see nice clean wash on the line and said to her husband,
“Look! She has learned how to wash correctly. I wonder who taught her this?”
Her husband said, “I got up early this morning and washed the windows.”
Please, don’t take me (too) serious…or wait, maybe you should!

Once upon a time a young woman complained to her grandmother that her life was miserable and that she didn’t know how she was going to make it. She was tired of fighting and struggling all the time. It seemed just as one problem was solved, another one soon followed. Her grandmother took her to the kitchen. She filled three pots with water and placed each on a high fire.
There was a King who had 1 Eye and 1 leg..
He asked all the painters to draw a beautiful portrait of him. But none of them could — how could they paint him beautifully with the defects in one eye and one leg.
Eventually one of them agreed and drew a classic picture of the King.
It was a fantastic picture and surprised everyone..
He painted the King aiming for a hunt. Targeting with one eye closed and one leg bent…
