View Full Version : Who wants to start smoking?

As all of us smokers know, smoking makes you super duper cool.

Smokers, post pics of what you smoke, and explain why its so damn good for your lungs.

Ill Start

1: Bali Shag
http://t0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcRZQvCFAiFEhb-J9q5VOxzu1L40YcBC8aTBYf8lupKoF_dY590&t=1&usg=__07ldREBJOoXD5O4ah80ENxETfAA=
Why its so damn good for your lungs: first of all, you get the satisfaction of rolling your own cigarettes, and then you get to inhale this godly cancercompost that smells faintly like bacon in the can. Its smooth and has a heavy feel when smoked. im partial to knowing i actually inhaled something, and even more partial to inhaling something that tastes great.

2: Lucky Strikes(only in white packs now, no longer in green and no different from green)
http://t2.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcSAaJNObfWBlrV16puscF9uy7r0LbucZ yVnWphluLj44DbYlZ0&t=1&usg=__-tNYPWE1oc9kJxPm--lW_UOvAog=
Why its so damn good for your lungs: Well, they are filterless so they are great for quick smokes. And, for a filterless cigarette they dont taste metallic like camel straights(at least i call em that, but they are just camel non filter). The "toasted" flavor actually tastes like something toasted, i haven't figured out what it tastes like, but it tastes good.
Plus, you might gain a hipster point when smoking these.

3: Camel Filters
http://www.zigsam.at/l6/B_Cig/CamelFilters-20fBR2004.jpg
Why its so damn good for your lungs: Well, for me, Filters are the staple filter cigarette for me. Nothing special, nothing bad, but they are a decently priced mainstay.

Now, for a cigarette that i hate:

Pall Malls
http://t1.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcRnLA29anMc7mcGyEQb9v3_ihLSspm-I30r_AWSz9ghIBg4Lcg&t=1&usg=__qzErUzgz8I6R26amTLWN4QpVVls=
Why they are on my shit list: Cardboard, but smokable. I prefer them over refries of even top quality cigarettes but thats not saying much. They are just better than refries.

Wildhorse cigarettes arent even worth mentioning(beyond this) or posting a picture of.


Disclaimer: All this shit can give you cancer, which is not super duper cool.

the other one is about quitting, i was bored and decided to make one specifically about smoking.

basically a "share your favorite brand and explain why" thread.

The Good:


Camels- Why are they great? They just have some of the best blends out there, imo.
Camel Turkish Royal:
http://www.sixthseal.com/archive/September2006/camel_turkish_royal_cigarette.jpg
Camel 99's:
http://www.munchiesonwheels.com/Product_Images/Camel_99Filters.jpg

American Spirits- Why are they Great? They make really good smokes, they're organic too (not sure if that makes the difference or not). Plus they have a Perique blend which is just magical. Oh, and smoking them scores you massive hipster points.
Perique Blend:
http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_f5lB8rYMvEY/SPiAsnbgURI/AAAAAAAAAH0/NIsuw2_Uo1Y/s400/perique.jpg

Benson and Hedges- Why are they great? Cause they make a damned good mentol.
100's Mentols:
http://www.cigars-and-cigarettes.com/images/Benson-Hedges-Menthol-Box-100.jpg

The Okay:

Malrboro- Why are they alright? Cause they have decent flavor and cowboys advertise them. And I love cowboys. :wub:
http://130.18.140.19/mmsoc/subliminal/marlboro.jpg

Lucky Strike- Why are they alright? Because I smoked American ones. They had decent flavor, but not what I expected. My friend assures me the ones from Eastern Europe are great though.
Luckies:
http://www.plan59.com/images/JPGs/lucky_strike_hand_1959_00.jpg


The Godawful:

Pall Mall- Why are they a disgrace to humanity? Because they taste like cardboard, and cardboard is still probably more enjoyable. Smoking these is a horrible way to get cancer.
Shit:
http://www.hausnummern.info/fotos-a/pall-mall.jpg

305's- Why are they a disgrace to Humanity? Because just when you thought you couldn't get worse than cardboard Pall Malls, someone came up with 305's. They taste like piss soaked cardboard and are about as pleasant to smoke as fiber glass. Stay away, very far away from these:

Rusty Shackleford

im going to have to try a pack of 305s. if i dont like them, ill just give the pack to someone. although ill take your word on them because you were right about pall mall.

I love 305's just for the novelty value. It's kind of an inside joke... but they are really, really, horrific cigarettes.

Good:
Dunhills: both Reds and Menthols
Natural Spirits Menthols or Perique
Nat Sherman
Lucky Strikes (rare, only smoked them in Italy; I don't like unfiltered)

Acceptable range:
Benson & Hedges
Camel
Marlboro Red

12th August 2010, 01:17
American Spirit- Roll your own tins can be found for 3 bucks and have like ten packs of cigarettes worth of tobacco in them.



Also, lucky strikes can be bought with filters.

Rusty Shackleford
12th August 2010, 01:20
where you get your american spririt tobacco, is it medium shag? itseems like the american spirit rolly tobacco is like hard confetti. its hrrible to roll and dry to smoke :( pre rolled ciggs are fine though.

i think i should have just moistened it.

12th August 2010, 01:23
I wholeheartedly agree in regards to Camel Turkish varieties (Royals, Silvers, Golds, etc.) and the absolute shitiness that is Pall Mall. I only bought a pack of those once, and I ended up giving it away.

I also like Kamel Reds, although they're a bit on the expensive side.

Os Cangaceiros
12th August 2010, 01:37
Yeah they got the whole soviet chic thing going on with the pack design, I think.

I discovered them when I was 17 in Seattle...my friend always wanted to buy Dave's and American Spirits (can't stand either brand), and I always wanted to get Kamel Reds. Lucky Strikes sometimes too.

Good cigarettes:
Pall Mall cause their cheap. And they dont taste like cardboard here at all.
When i was in the US i enjoyed American Spirits, but i recently bought a pack and now they suck. I heard they got bought out.

Bad cigarettes:
Marlboro, god awfull. People only buy it to show they've got shitloads of money anyhoo. Cause i dont believe people smoke it cause it's enjoyable.

16th August 2010, 18:15
Camel Menthol with the added menthol burst in the filter. Marlboro Smooths are sick too. Whoever said American Spirit sucks ass and should leave now. Pall Malls are pretty shitty, but cheap, so whatever.

I lost my pipe and with so many hipsters taking it up I'd be, frankly, embarassed to be seen smoking it in public until I'm at least 30 years older despite the undeniable pleasure it is.

Anyway, my thing is hand rolled fags 'cause they're cheaper. My tobacco of choice is this gorgeous stuff:
http://www.brucciani-ltd.co.uk/shop/images/products/rtoh25.jpg Which draws flak from some smokers for not being namby pampby flavourless bullshit like Cutter's Choice or Golden Virginia. I generally use licourice flavoured skins, which again gets a lot of underserved flak from people who have no business smoking at all.

Srsly, Marlboro is one thing. I could've lived with someone saying that about regular Marlboro's. But lights? I once found a pack of Marlboro lights, i threw away a fucking free pack of cigarettes because it was so horrible. There's no nicotine whatsoever in it, but the same amount of tar as in regulars. Why the hell would you do that? Thats just smoking for the cancer!

Also I love buying Native cigarettes made on the reserve whenever I stop by, you can get a bag of like 200 for 20$ although for every 25 or so good cigarettes, the rest are really awful.

They actually have less tar, but I couldn't really tell you why I like them so much. Probably cause my dad and mom smoked them.

I've been trying to quit again lately so that should give me more inspiration to quit! Or buy a bigger bang for my buck.

I used to love the b&m wine but I had one again recently and I hated it... Don't know why but I only really like the originals now... And only with a wood tip. I don't understand why they still make the plastic ones, they're the same price and the wood ones are just better in every way imaginable.

:thumbup1:

I don't like too much odd and obviously artificial flavors. I don't want my smokes to include flavors like peaches, grape, or wine. If anything, I only want hints of licorice and/or coffee in my tobacco. Also, I do prefer wood ones over the plastic especially since it is the same price (although my line of thought, outside that it looks better, is that plastic is worse for the environment...lol)

I hate lights.

I'm partial to menthols. I only smoke American Spirits in this variety unless I have the perique blend.

Dunills regular and Dunhills methols are more or less equally ok to me.

I don't like Marlboro Menthols much.

Also, Marlboro Menthols Light 100s are NASTY


I demand to know where you can buy Dunhills! I have wanted to try them for a while, but can't find them anywhere.

The gas station near FGCU used to sell them, but I basically bought'em all up; I was their major consumer of this brand.
I'm not sure if they re-stocked (I'm not hopeful), although once they did.

If they do not have Dunhills I think I might end up just getting Black & Mild wood tipped cigars; although that might be better in the long run.

kreteks

I had some (Djarum), initially it's like "nice" but later their taste/etc becomes tiring and just a little to odd relative to a normal cig or cigar. One odd occurrence is that every time I smoked one before going to sleep I dreamt something that night.

Shokaract
20th August 2010, 05:42

20th August 2010, 06:17
ok, i think marlboro(of all the fucking brands, who happen to also support zionism :mad:) has redeemed menthols a bit. Their menthols, at least the american ones, taste like mild andes mints... damn delicious aftertaste

Old Holborn original and mild (well, duh)
Amber Leaf
Gold Leaf (possibly exactly the same tobacco, although it did sort of taste more like arse)
Samson
Drum original and mild
Cutter's Choice
Golden Virginia
Lucky Strike (can't find it here)

And my much shorter list of tobacco I've smoked in my pipe:
St. Bruno.
Clan.
Old Holborn (I was desperate. It didn't really work).

Amber Leaf

These are not too good in my opinion. I like my tobacco strong but Amber Leaf is just really harsh without having any good taste qualities. Gold Leaf is just really bad.


Samson

One of my favourites I would say. Seems much cleaner to smoke, I assume the tar levels are low in this.



Drum original and mild

I'm warming to this as of recently. I didn't like it before but it's smoky taste is nicer than most rolling tobacco's. I will probably use this more.



Cutter's Choice

It's decent but I don't like it much. The taste isn't much to write home about.



Golden Virginia

Probably the one I buy most. I like its strength.

I think "not too good" does them too much credit. If it came to a choice between smoking 'leaf and smoking goat pubes I would have a hard time choosing.

It's decent but I don't like it much. The taste isn't much to write home about. I agree. I certainly wouldn't buy it of my own volition.


Probably the one I buy most. I like its strength. You're wrong. It's not really strong at all and has next to no flavour.

What's Old Holburn like? Never tried it

Ah I wouldn't say that. I think its the sturdiest one there is really. I suppose I have simple tastes but I like it. Don't know why it gets such a bad rap, especially on here.

What's Old Holburn like? Never tried it You'd be doing yourself a disservice if you didn't give it a shot. It's quite strongly flavoured and can seem very harsh at first. It's like a slightly better version of drum without all the various bits of dried miscellania you find in packs of the latter.


Ah I wouldn't say that. I think its the sturdiest one there is really. I suppose I have simple tastes but I like it. Don't know why it gets such a bad rap, especially on here. Each to their own I suppose but I really haven't heard anyone else describe it as "strong" or "sturdy". My only other problem with it really is that it's quite often tightly packed which makes it hard to roll smokeable fags.

I need to try old holburn then. You're right about tightly packed. Always find it hard to toke at the top of the roll up.

Also, haven't got any tobac at the moment and I'm smoking Marlboro lights, they are an abomination against smoking.
