Surprised to see how many people on this forum smoke or have been smokers.

I think I know maybe 5 smokers in the "real world."

The first three days stink, but you'll be alright after that. Soon you'll realize how awful that stuff stinks, and you'll be gravy.
But you talk about smoking cigars all the time. So you're not only a smoker, but you smoke some of the stinkiest cancer sticks around. :P

I feel like there's a less deathly stench to cigars. Maybe that's just because I use them infrequently, when I want to act like a big businessman sealing deals in back rooms.

Cigars have a very wide range of smells. I actually dont mind cigarette smoke smell. What is more off putting is the musty cigarette smoke smell on clothing.

They smell delicious and I smoke, maybe, ten cigars a year. Okay, maybe fifteen.

They're like an anti-reward for me. I know they're not a health benefit, but I do love a cigar during a poker game or sharing one with my wife on the patio.

Cigarettes smell terrible, and don't even smell like tobacco.

I smoked lucky strikes and camel wides. Lucky strikes still smell okay to me, but even camels and Marlboro reds smell terrible to my nose holes.

How many Groucho Marx impersonations per cigar? I'm at about 3 or 4.

That's a question I'll answer if you mail me ten dollars worth of stamps. You won't actually get an answer, but I'll use the stamps.

When I choose to, yes. Without a doubt.

Cigars are like a prime ribeye steak to me; Don't need it, rarely have it, but enjoy it when I have the means.

All this talk makes me want to take up pipe smoking.
