@niko @goo I live in a rural area 30 miles from town! We still use matches. Because so many people smoked when I was a kid every business used book matches for advertising. There were all kinds and colors and elaborately decorated match book covers. I even have a few special ones from that jar left. So smokers needed matches equaled advertising traffic.

Philo (philo@dobbs.town)'s status on Monday, 04-Mar-2024 00:06:50 JST Philo Remember when we used to use matches to light stuff? I wish I had some just for nostalgia sake. When I was a kid, every business would hand out free matches and so I actually collected them until I had a giant jar full. I don’t know what happened to that jar.
