45 Funny Cigarette Tweets That Should Come With A Surgeon General Warning (May 2, 2025)

There was a time when you couldn’t walk into a bar, diner, or bowling alley without getting hit in the face with secondhand smoke. People used to smoke on planes. In office meetings. During pregnancy. It was wild.

We’re probably better off now, health-wise. No one’s arguing that. But there’s something oddly nostalgic about the haze of it all. The vibe, the aesthetic, the casual chaos of people lighting up like it was just another part of breathing.

That’s exactly the weird magic of Cigarette Dystopia (@CigsMake). The memes, images, and cursed screenshots they post feel like they’re pulled from an alternate timeline that’s somehow both retro and depressingly current. You don’t need to smoke to feel this.

Here’s a round-up of Cigarette Dystopia memes and posts that capture that oddly satisfying, slightly offbeat, beautifully unwell energy.
