Cigarettes are putrid!

[damianmonk]

Oh god, I had never smoked cigarettes before starting a pipe. Out of curiosity, I got a pack today and smoked one...
The nicotine hit is definitely a lot more significant considering the amount of tobacco. However, the taste is absolutely awful. Not only that, it coated my mouth with an ugly smoky layer too.
I'm sorry I betrayed y'all, but NEVER again!

I agree,

putrid.
FSC is the devil.
They most certainly don't make 'em like they used to...

Most cigarette smokers probably only smoke them for the nicotine hit and the convenience.

"Cigarettes are putrid!"
That's why there are pipes and pipe-tobacco!

People smoke cigarettes because they can't smoke pipes indoors. When you can sip a pipe for a few hours, of course you smoke the pipe; it's better in every way. But if you only have a five minute break to go outside and smoke, you need something convenient like a cigarette.

^ Yep. That's me. I've been experimenting with Snus when I can't smoke a pipe, but I find I still miss the smoke. It is not optimum. Snus has a wicked nic hit though.

Cigarettes Tast horrid and smell horrid because they are made from low quality heavily adulterated tobacco.
It's nothing like quality cigar and pipe tobacco.

If I can't smoke my pipe I just don't smoke!!!

I smoked a Marlboro after having a few drinks at a social gathering. It tasted like chemicals and Poison. It's the same taste I get from Diet Coke.

Cigars, pipes and cigarettes, I smoke all three. You guys just aren't trying hard enough to find a satisfying cigarette. Just as certain pipe blends aren't not for everyone, as are cigarettes. Nothing gained through a single experience. It's like finding a beer you can thoroughly enjoy. Takes time and testing.
The brand I smoke is most certainly not made from inferior leaf. I do not like certain hard liquors either, so I refrain from subjecting the members to my distaste for them.

I have a strong distaste for people who do not express their distaste.

:wink:

Drum brand roll your own tobacco, in the dark blue pouch, tastes exactly like Mac Baren HH Old Dark Fired.

I was a cigarette smoker for thirty years, unaware of how foul the smoke was becaause I always lived in a hourse where cig smoke pemeated the air. Then the rising costs of cigs, and my disgust over their addictive hold over me, had me try to quite several times until I discovered Chantix, which I know many people can't tolerate. Three months later, needeng an oral fix rather than a nicotine one (let's not take that out of context, gents) I resume my tries with the pipe. God a Peterson Dracula Smooth Aoole and one other pipe that edudes memory, and learned how to smoke a pipe--my previous efforts, I realized, were based on trying to smoke a pipe like a cigarette, which of course you don't. I learned much about that here, thank you. Now you couldn't pay me to smoke a cigarette, and I'm battling PAD, see my earlier post today about a Nording billiard. But most of all, I can actually smell cigarette smoke, and how foul it is. To think I wasted so many years in time and money smoking those things...

I really liked American Spirit roll-your-own when I was in college. Mostly the blue variety, but the black was even better. Has Perique in it.

Cigs get put down on this forum frequently, which is understandable I guess, but it is my understanding that Pipe leaf would not be available without the cigarette industry.
Although I haven't smoked cigarettes for years, I still consider myself a Smoker, and take each bowl in solidarity. Many of us on this board smoke cigarettes and cigars as well.
Cigarette smoke doesn't smell bad to me, just different, and I won't get on a high horse.

Ah man, why can't I have Nightcap cigarettes...

 

[tinsel]

Got some nightcap? Go the local convenience store and buy some papers and roll yourself some

 

[damianmonk]

Oh I tried, the paper burned faster than Nightcap. Maybe shredding will help..?
