Thought maybe others with this infernal addiction (how I love it!) would find this interesting.

I wish I lived back in those days.

Here in Ireland you're not allowed to advertiste cigarettes, cigs are kept in steel boxes locked behind the counter, cigs are 9 euro a pack, we have a shitty selection of cigs and finally in every bar and pub across the country we have to smoke outside in the freezing cold. :D

Cigs are made by the government...population control, making you pay for medical services (US only lol) and just to plain kill you.

Pretty much shows capitalists can find a way to sell anything to the public.

And now they can arrest you for smoking a cigarette in a pub.

American Spirits, only reason why i keep smoking them is because in my area they cheaper at headshops than gas stations (by $2!) so its a fucking deal.

The smoking ban is a bastard, and now! in my local, its got a new landlord and he dont even let you smoke after hours... not fair...
And i smoke roll ups now, no way i can i afford £5.97 for my old Dunhill or Craven A's.... how i miss my Dunhill:crying:..... that reminds me, do you think Craven A's had some kind of maybe slightly anarchist PR men.. cos i THINK the A used to be circled... and before they were called Craven A's they were called 'black cats'....

And to that person going on about the 'government sell you anything' shite, fuck that, my back comes from Spain! God, people wanna take away everything from people, smoking isnt 'new' or anything... millions of people after a stressfull day at work, go the pub and have a pint and a fag, and chill out... booze and smoking is like fish and chips, or bacon and egg, they go together perfectly, and anyone who tries to take that away from me is gonna have a fucking battle... and i think i speak for 90% of smokers to. Although i am not convinced of the matter, fags are so pricey now and you cant smoke inside pubs or public places, its madness, when will someone just say FUCK OFF! My point on all this is its our fault, the masses fault, because when they said 'right no more smoking in the pubs' we could of said one...simple...little...word......... 'no'
They cant arrest and fine EVERY SMOKER in the land and EVERY PUB, and if they even tried, all you have to say again, is 'no'.... its a very powerful little word that is so underated

If anyone here smokes Camel Menthols, there is a little ball of mentol in the filter, break it and the experience is so much better.

Actually, there has been studies shown that smokers cost less on the medical services, basically because they die younger and more rapidly, and it is elderly people who generally put the most strain on the health care system.

oh god yes its great tobacco. im going to fucking hate it when i have to start buying cheapo tobacco. and one of my favorite parts about american spirits is they just smolder a bit so they last for quite some time if you smoke conservatively.

im going to start challenging myself to not have a cigarette for a whole day more often though. then maybe upgrade to 2. not to quit but just to do it.

Nine euro a pack??? :rolleyes:
Jeez, EU membership will really turn out fine (I'm from Croatia).
However, the prices have risen recently, from approx. 2 euro (for a decent brand) to 3,5-4. That's why I suggest that you folks do as I did - ge accustomed to hand rolling tobbacco :) (golden virgina, my precious :drool::D).
Btw., what are the prices of HR tobbacco out there? (I'm especially curious about EU countries)

Golden Virginia is shit soggy flavourless tobacco. Smoke Drum blue.

The brands of hand rolling baccy in the UK are GV, which I just described; there's cutter's choice which is flavourless; there's Old Holborn which is like warm poo entering the lungs; there's Amber Leaf, which looks like paper shreddings and tastes horrible; and there's Drum, which is lovely, warm and flavoursome.

The Camel Crushes are pretty nasty imo. the No9's are much better menthols.

crushes are almost like smokable peppermints haha. No9's are pretty much the standard of menthols though. not exceptionally strong or weak.

Why do you say that? They know it kills you...they deny it kills you...and they sell it to you anyway...seems fishy to me.

It's the same way the U.S. govt says we need to go to war with all these middle eastern countries...we don't NEED to...the govt wants us to...they know it'll kill us but they sell it to us anyway.
