I prefer Acid Cold Infusion Tea Cigars myself...They have that great fusion of Sweet yet Spicy...

Crack.

When smoking tobacco it has to be Cigarettes, nothing like a Newport to calm you down.

When smoking "other" stuff I prefer a steamroller, though Hookah's and water bongs are nice.

Crack.

Lol.

I like to smoke turkeys and beef briskets. *nod*

hookah with mint flavored sheesha

I agree with Nilpnt, you gotta smoke cigs if you're smoking tobacco. My favorite are Marlboro Reds.
and if you're smoking "other " stuff, its gotta be out of a vaporizer or water bong

what are these Acid Cold Infusion Tea Cigars anyways ??

Man, if youre gonna smoke cigars, smoke good cigars.

Smoked ham, and smoked salmon.

Hand-rolled cigarettes, the occasional cigar.

doesn't tell me how they differ from normal cigars or is this just a different blend.

Its just a different blend...I think they taste good, and its reasonably priced thats all, lol...

I punch people who smoke around me.

Laphroaig tastes of distilled smoke.:p

Although my primary smoke during the day is Camel cigarettes, I much prefer my pipe. I'll smoke the occasional cigar, but the pipe suits me much better.

Meerschaum or Briar?

Do what I used to do when my friends smoked; assume they are on fire and beat them out with a rug.

All my friends have quit smoking. :)

Listerine water pipe. Turn the listerine bottle in to a pipe, very smooth smoke

You know what feels really stupid....

I was just about to ask "Is that healthy? Isnt listerine Poisonous?" lol

I don't mean to take on airs. but the whole with spices blended in just makes me think of it as a glorified black and mild.

Meerschaum or Briar?

Briar, and I go for bent pipes rather than straight stems. (That has to be my homosexuality showing there!)

And I tend to like a tobacco that has some Latakia in it.

I don't smoke

I agree with Nilpnt, you gotta smoke cigs if you're smoking tobacco. My favorite are Marlboro Reds.

I forgot about vaporizers, there nice. So is a blunt if rolled right.

So you bothered to post in a thread about smoking?

Ive always been partial to Meerschum myself. Smokes smoother, and doesnt have that "cool down" time a briar does.

So you bothered to post in a thread about smoking?

Yeah, kinda.

Yeah, kinda.
Strikes me as a bit pointless.

I punch people who smoke around me.

Wuss.

I smoke American Spirits now. I used to smoke camels, but the chemical they put in them now for "Fire Safe Cigarettes" is nasty. Probably gonna quit soon, or just start rolling my own as long as the chemical isn't in there.

I smoke American Spirits now.

These are win. Taste better, last longer.

I smoke American Spirits now.
American guy on the dig I was on over the summer tried to take as many American Spirit cigarettes in to the UK as he could, as he said that the American Spirits on sale in the UK were stale compared to the ones he brought with him from the US. Something to do with them being in the hold of a ship for ages, he said.

I've never tried smoking a meerschum before. I guess I've never found one that I liked enough to buy.

Theyre very pricey, so youre better off not getting one if it doesnt really visually appeal to you.

Yeah it's a much, much cleaner tobacco. I'd rather pay extra for em.

"Prima" brand cigarettes, otherwise Camels when I can get a hold of them

Montecristo!

I agree with Nilpnt, you gotta smoke cigs if you're smoking tobacco. My favorite are Marlboro Reds.

Marlboro Reds are old man cigarettes to me, probably because the two old guys at the newspaper who did the color smoked them.

As for me, Camels--Turkish Gold.

I smoke American Spirits. I started out on Marlboro reds, proceded somehow to Camels and then Camel lights before settling. For the most part though I have no problems with other cigarettes. I'm not one of those people who gets all snobby about these things.

I punch people who smoke around me.

That's cool. I report people who commit violent crimes around me to the authorities. Yeah apparently in the grown-up world, hitting people is no longer 'boys being boys' punishable by detention and a firm talking-to but assault and battery. Shit! Next thing you know slapping the waitress on the ass is going to be sexual harassment or something!

How are those different from Royals?

Didn't know that you could smoke cloves, although I've seen clove-flavoured cigarettes. They smelled somewhat pungent.

the brand is Djarum. they are quite good.

I only smoke second-hand, and I'm especially fond of cheap cigarettes. Pipe smoke is also lovely.

the brand is Djarum. they are quite good.
Nah, they are the ones I've seen then.

Cigarettes, but hand-rolled ones. Sometimes the odd cigar.

Depends. Salems and Turkish Royals are my mainstays, but if I'm feeling particularly generous I'll shell out for some good Lucky Strikes, Gauloises or Marshall McCrearty's...the oil of bergamot ones are particularly good.

What they're doing is hazardous to those around them with the high possibility of long term injury, I could argue it's self defense.

No, it's just being an asshole. We have a thing called politeness where you ask people not to smoke and don't show up at places where people are smoking expecting them all to put out their cigarettes just because a nonsmoker is in the area. We respect your rights and reasonable requests and in turn expect you to do the same. If you ask a person not to smoke and your request is reasonable and they don't listen, then let us take matters in to our own hands because there's nothing that pisses any of us off more than assholes making us look bad.

I'm perfectly fine with banning smoking in public establishments, but that doesn't give nonsmokers the right to be assholes. There are plenty of things that are as dangerous and as hazardous to others as smoking, and in the case of a few of them they're far more dangerous...I always laugh at people who binge drink till they're throwing up or staggering around, maybe fucking someone without protection but are appalled at the thought of someone lighting up next to them.

Your opinion is duly noted. But in the real world, smokers are by far the bigger assholes. You can speak of your experiences, I'll speak of mine. One time I asked some idiot to stop and he just smiled, said he was going to leave soon and smoked harder for 30 minutes. And this isn't uncommon either. The hard fact is people aren't that stupid, even though they're cancering themselves up, they know smoke is a gas that inside a room people cannot avoid inhaling it. The rest of us are supposed to go around asking them to cut it out all the time, whenever they feel like doing it? They should fucking know better, and stop pretending like they're that ignorant. This shit bothers people and we shouldn't have to outright be asking perfect strangers to stop. If they're looking for attention, or human interaction, perhaps a fist is more fitting. It's like needing to ask someone to stop blasting noise from vehicles, music or exhaust. They're not freakin stupid, they know what they're doing, with a shit eating grin on their face. In a perfect world, they'd literally be open season. Also, I don't drink so that last point is moot.

Cigars, Cubans.

Very rarely, though, I've not had one for a very long time.

Djarum Blacks.

What they're doing is hazardous to those around them with the high possibility of long term injury,

This claim is absurd to the point of hypochondria. I can only hope you're not a gambler if you think that's a "high possibility."

Also the lung cancer or other 'smoking related' disease I assume you're referring to as "injury" here would not be an "injury."

I could argue it's self defense.

You could, and you'd lose, and go to prison for assault. I guess that's a happy ending if you really think "he was smoking a cigarette" is an actual justification for violent crime. :rolleyes:

Your opinion is duly noted. But in the real world, smokers are by far the bigger assholes.

The same real world where you think punching people because you're afraid they'll increase your risk of cancerous "injury" is a good thing?

You can speak of your experiences, I'll speak of mine. One time I asked some idiot to stop and he just smiled, said he was going to leave soon and smoked harder for 30 minutes.

Holy anecdotal evidence, batman!

And so very persuasive! A guy didn't do as you demanded! That should be a crime!

And this isn't uncommon either. The hard fact is people aren't that stupid, even though they're cancering themselves up, they know smoke is a gas that inside a room people cannot avoid inhaling it. The rest of us are supposed to go around asking them to cut it out all the time, whenever they feel like doing it? They should fucking know better

Oh, so the problem isn't that you're being "cancered up" - apparently that doesn't bother you! - no, the real bugger for you is that you are forced to communicate with other people instead of your stated preferred alternative, namely assault and battery.

Poor, poor you.

This shit bothers people and we shouldn't have to outright be asking perfect strangers to stop.

Yeah, perfect strangers should just have telepathic abilities and instantly know (and submit to) your every whim.

O cruel world, why doest thou fiendishly deprive me so?

If they're looking for attention, or human interaction, perhaps a fist is more fitting. It's like needing to ask someone to stop blasting noise from vehicles, music or exhaust.

Last I checked, people driving cars or playing music don't telepathically acquiesce to the every demand of random strangers either!

They're not freakin stupid, they know what they're doing, with a shit eating grin on their face. In a perfect world, they'd literally be open season.

In a perfect world, someone like you would humbly recognize when your argument has been torn to shreds and apologize for your offensive, vitriolic hate-spew. Alas.

I agree, but only where there's no smoking signs. I don't mind asking them if there is no no-smoking sign around, but I shouldn't have to ask with one around. Anyone stupid enough to stand next to a no-smoking by law sign and smoke deserves a punch in the face. There's no excuse for that. And that's besides the fact that most smokers here seem to be total assholes when you do ask them, no matter how polite. Especially those idiots who stand on something like Hospital property (Smoke-free by provincial law) and smoke, and then dare freak out when you tell them to leave (I work at a hospital).

Someone here said many of you smokers will crack down on those assholes, well, why arn't you here? Honestly, I'd have more respect if I saw that happening rather then the complete lack of it around here or anywhere I've ever been.

Schimmelpinnicks when hanging out because they're small so I'm not left standing after all the cigarette smokers are done.

Arturo Fuente Exquistos Maduro wrap for my normal cigar experience. I don't like a big ring size, unless it's a short cigar. I prefer maduro wrap.

I like pipes, but if anyone sees me smoking a pipe I feel like an affectatious moron. Plus, upkeep on the pipe is annoying.

For weed, I like glass. Vaporizer right now is my preferred method. Bongs eventually amount to too much hassle and so it's only on occasion. I don't have one anymore.

I've never smoked anything myself, but a few of the arab markets and restaurants near me have those hookah-pipes in their store windows - I suppose I might try an interesting-flavored tobacco if I were ever ate at one of those places. Looks neat.

Good God, this is the best news I've heard since Hearts of Iron 3 was confirmed.

I hate cigarettes.... no offense to smokers intended, but the thought of them makes me ill.

If you're not a smoker, smoking a cigarette will probably make you physically ill...

That being said, the stimulative effects of nicotine are something else. The first cigarette of the day is an experience in and of itself.

How are those different from Royals?

I don't know. I've only really smoked Camel Lights and Turkish Golds. An old ex smoked Turkish Golds. When I smoke, which I normally don't, it reminds me of her--she was kind of like one big (smoking hot, crazy) bad habit.

Oh no no, I am not a smoker obviously. But the act of smoking, the smell of the smoke.. all of it, I don't like it. If I am dating a smoker I don't really like kissing them after they smoke until they pop a breath mint or havn't lit up for about 15 minutes. It makes me gag....

I've only ever smoked a single Menthol, and it was like smoking a Trebor Extra Strong Mint.

Not really unpleasant, but not something that I'd repeat with any regularity, certainly not buying a packet myself.

Hand rolled Golden Virginia most of the time, Lambert and Butler if I have some extra cash and cigars on those special occasions.

It's got nothing to do with morals.

no smoke is the best :p

Well, now that you've got that off your chest, could you cease bringing the thread off topic?

I also have my electronic cigarette, great for those cold nights were you can’t be arsed to go outside you can sit and "smoke" in the pub, living room, school, wherever.

And out of curiosity, is there any difference with the tobacco in ciggi's, cigars, pipe etc, apart from the different chemicals added.

Yeah, craploads. I can't smoke anything but Golden Virginnia, everything else tends to taste like crap.

It all depends on how it's been dried and prepared and all that sort of thing.

Well, now that you've got that off your chest, could you cease bringing the thread off topic?

I was only intending on the one post originally. I simply had to clarify my position. Fortunately I'm not in a trolling mood.

Up in smoke
Thats where my money goes
In my lungs
and sometimes up my nose
When troubled times
Begin to bother me
I take a toke
and all my cares
Go up in smoke

...

Yeah, craploads. I can't smoke anything but Golden Virginnia, everything else tends to taste like crap.
Agreed. Used to smoke Marlboro Lights - switched to rollies, simply cannot smoke deathsticks (other than menthols to dull the chemical taste) any more.

The chance of getting lung cancer from passive smoking is something like 1 in 40000. Don't be ridiculous.

yeah just go where you normally get your american spirits and look for the green box.

Marlboro Lights. Or Richmonds if I'm poor.

Same here. I always make sure I don't smell like smoke, because to be honest stale smoke smells as bad to me as any nonsmoker.

I have a friend who's the same way; now, in my case my mom did in fact smoke while I was growing up, so my sensitivity to nicotine may be a good deal higher than other people. Add in genetic factors, and I imagine like any addiction there's a lot more than just the nicotine itself that produces such a difficult habit and addiction to break.

Recall that physical addiction to nicotine is broken in roughly 72 hours after last exposure, which shows it isn't the compound itself acting alone that produces such high relapse rates among smokers who try to quit. There's a lot more there that also affects your susceptibility to nicotine, and it would be interesting to find out just what's going on.

I'm too sick to smoke. I smoked a halfie this morning and coughed til my eyes watered.

Cloves are good and I smoke them whenever I can. Oddly I don't go out of my way to buy them at all, though. This is partly because I'm cheap, and also because I don't want to cheapen the experience through a glut of supply.

Djarum Blacks.

I'm the same.

I only smoke occasionally.

I too enjoy a good clove every once in a while.

I used to smoke them more regularly, but I got sick of them. I think they're nicer as an indulgence rather than an everyday smoke.

Same here. I always make sure I don't smell like smoke, because to be honest stale smoke smells as bad to me as any nonsmoker.

Yeah... sadly 90% of my family smokes so its hard to avoid smelling like ash.

Old smoke is a pretty nasty smell, It's so musty and seems to cling to everything.

I stopped smoking cigarettes a while ago and don't really like them now, although I'll still have a cigar every now and then.

Shotties, bucket bongs, bongs and vaporisers are my preferred way of smoking.

exaust from steam locomotives.
They are cooler than electric and all the others. Steam engines seem to just have more raw power than any other sort.
