I'll take "What's classy when you're rich but not when you're poor?" for $100 Alex
Is it that classy?
Given the monarchy is the top class in a class system then yes: by definition.
Is that a cigarette in his hands? He was 12 years old in 1955.
In 1955, basically everyone smoked. Like 65% of Europe were smokers, and I do mean 65% of living humans of all ages.
I was smoking at 12 in France in 1999, I told tobacconists I was buying them for my mom. Pulled the same thing off in the states when I moved there 2 years later. And I was far from alone. These are far more recent (terrible, obviously) habits than you might think.
Started smoking at 12 too, also in the 90s. Quit in high-school.
Looks like someone wanted them to pose as such to make a funny photo
Amateurs. I started my cocaine addiction at 5 years old when the Fleetwood Mac album Rumours came out.
Edit: again I need to learn doing correct grammar in English.

It's pretty decent for someone nearing a half century coke habit.
I am getting all emotional, "snif".
This photo became the notorious cover image of Dinosaur Jr.'s Green Mind, as us older folks well remember.
Were these plastic cups already standard back then?
I think those might actually be frosted glass cups.
Here is the best copy I could find, and the flared edges do not look like plastic cups - also the shiny inside and matte outside looks more like glass frosted on the outside.
PP was not in commercial use until 1957 (not sure when it was first used for cups), PET disposable cups weren't a thing until the 70s. Disposable cups in the 50s would have been wax paper.
I come from lower class but tbh reminds me of my early teens too. Booze and smokes.
13 going on 30
How can you still be prince from a county that has ceased to exist for centuries?
I read this as a non-rhetorical question, in a Nigerian accent
Those sure were the days
Source? But their hands look like poor AI garbage...
My dude, I've had this pic on my PC since 2014.
Same. But someone colorized it somehow. The colors look weird and I had it in black and white.
No they dont?
Those look like normal hands to me
idk they just look like hands to me
Hands look perfectly fine?!
