Digital billboards are really only a recent thing here. Usually garish and messing with good brutalist architecture. Saw one the other week and thought it was better than normal, then clicked it had crashed and was displaying Win11 wallpaper

I only ever socially smoked and will still have one if drinking and offered, but I recall the 10 packs when I started at a bangong $2.80 or so

Also can tell level of wealth by butts, only those well off left a decent gap to prevent butt drag
