Lucky Strikes (God I still like that smell).

[Luke]

I have asthma, never smoked. But I'll be damned if I don't love the smell of cigarettes! Barring menthols, I can't help it!

I still smoke cigars, but some tobacco just smells dry and without flavor. LUCKY's always had a distinct smell and toasty aroma to them. No fillers either.

A friend of mine was smoking a butt the other day and I asked him if he was smoking a menthol (it smelled awful). His response that it "could be" a menthol if he crushed the filter. What's that all about?

And I see don't get the idea of Ultra Lights, never will. Just like with most light smokes, they smell like burnt paper with a hint of cheap processed tobacco.

That in mind I've had cigarette smokers get on my case for smoking cigars.

"Why do you smoke cigars? Is it to show off? I don't get it, why even smoke? What is the payoff?".

Well, it's relaxing, smells and tastes delicious, and also sets a mood (and usually that mood includes a glass of whiskey). It's more of an award than an addiction.

I forced myself through one full cig. I don't know how people smoke that stuff. Shit hurt my lungs and gave me a massive headache + the spins. At that point, I had probably been smoking marijuana for a year or so too, so it wasn't like my lungs weren't used to having smoke put inside them.

I just bought a pack myself recently, to see what it's like. I got a mild headache and slightly woozy. Don't plan on getting a second pack. In fact, I'm not sure I'll be able to finish the one I have before they're stale. Smoking's kind of lame, but at the same time I hate to not get my money's worth. By the way, potential customers of my B/S/T thread, I've done all the smoking outdoors.

On the subject of quitting, my dad had a hard time with it. The attitude thing might have been part of it, because he always enjoyed smoking. He only quit because he didn't want to expose his new babies (me and my sister) to second hand smoke. He says he still craves them when he's around someone else who smokes.

Oh man, that's perfect. +1.

I smoked a lot of hand-rolled cigarettes when I was smoking heavily, and I had a few hippie friends that always had weird herbs (and no, I don't mean illicit ones) and natural papers and stuff like that. The first time I ever smoke tobacco was some bizarre herbal mixture. By comparison, normal cigarettes always just taste like hot tar to me.

Also, dear god do I hate menthol cigs.

Camel Crush.

Those things are awful. Honestly I don't know how I ever smoked anything besides Marlboro Menthols. I went from Newports (menthol) to Virginia Blends (not menthol) to Camel Crush (just awful either way) and ended up with Marlboro Menthol which is what I stuck with until I quit. I tried some other things in between like reds (which were just way too dry and disgusting for me) but didn't stick with them for long.

I actually find it funny that there are non menthol newports.

Ah. Camel Crush, for the indecisive addict.

I'll add that to "My List". I have this list of things, in my head. All of them are things that I like/am attracted to, even though I shouldn't be/actually am not. I'm not attracted to smoking or cigs, but the smell, the awesome smell. I'm attracted to girls with dyed hair and awesome, colorful tattoos. But I don't know if I could ever stay with someone like that. (Dyed hair being the lesser of the evils) I like tattoo art, but I doubt I'd ever get one. I like the idea of having girls all the time and one night stands, but I don't really think I could ever be that way.

I'm an indecisive kind of guy, at least I think.

Where did this come from? Getting a tattoo won't automatically make girls like you...
