well once i get down to the roach i put it out and save it for the bong same like i do with joints

the tobacco in the mouth happens a lot lol. i had a friend who would tear off pieces of the paper pack and roll them into tiny cylinders to stick on the ends of the rolled cigarette. wasn't a proper filter but it solved the problems of tobacco falling out and having more paper between your skin and the lit end.

Due to lack of Marijuana, I decided to try out smoking. I got myself a packet of the cheapest cigarettes I could buy and just went at them. Is it weird that I feel really sick after smoking one? Maybe I'm not used to it or holding it in too long, but it feels like a waste of $10 right now.

Also, in New Zealand, they are planning to make smoking illegal by 2025, which I think is sad. I think people should be allowed doing what they want with their bodies, and it will just criminalise a lot of people too. Probably won't happen though, they just bring it up on the news every once in a while.

that's crazy expensive. and about feeling dizzy... it's probably your weed smoking skills that are causing you to completely inhale the smoke rather than suck on it like a lot of people do. lots of my weed smoking friends say the same thing whenever they take some hits off of a cigarette.

lol i'd say that super cheap cigarettes are an awful substitute for weed

I'm assuming you bought some Pall Mall Baselines or similar, if you got them for $10, and they're a really poor introduction to smoking tobacco.

If you genuinely want to get a feel for good tobacco smoking, buy a pouch. Even if you don't finish it, I'm sure you'll have a friend who would take it off your hands, or you could just save it for rolling spliffs.

A nice, smooth blend like Port Royal Black Label or Park Drive Fine Cut, and the slimmest filters you can find. Zigzag yellows are fine, but I like these badboys. Not as easy to find, but quite a number of dairies, foursquares and petrol stations stock them. They come in sticks wrapped in plastic, so you can chuck a few in your pouch on your way out the door and they wont dry out your tobacco (putting loose filters in your pouch dries out your tobacco so dont do it!).

Feeling sick after smoking can happen when you first start. There was about a 5 day period for me where I would feel a little nausea after smoking, but I pushed past it.

Lol yea, I wasn't trying to substitute for weed, just wanted to try out tobacco just my itself. I like the head high you get from it (I've done half weed/tobacco bong hits) and I was hoping it would be the same with cigarettes. I can smoke 1/2 of one, get the 20 min high and smoke the other 1/2 later on in the day and it seems to work out fine. I've been told cigarettes are expensive in NZ, but it's only ~$8 USD so not that bad but they keep increasing taxes on it and on alcohol for some reason. Another thing I dislike about cigarettes is it feels like I'm damaging my lungs way more than with weed (probably because it's not in a bong). I need to get some pipe tobacco and try that out, it smells so nice


lol yea, they're pall malls I've been told to try out the exact same ones you told me too my a veteran friend. I have to finish the pack I have now though, and I do about one a week so it's going to take a while.

Also, if you smoke regularly (a few ciggy's/day) is it pretty easy to get addicted or does it take quite a long time? Some of my friends seem to be able to go cold turkey even after ~1 year of continued smoking and others can't seem to stop even when they want after a few months of starting. Must me dependent on genes or health or something right?

What do you mean? ' - ' a

I actually had to start smoking cigs because I started buying higher quality weed and would be a lot more difficult to hide the smell.

EDIT: not "had" to, but decided to :p

If you roll the mouth end of your paper into a Z shape it achieves a similar end. It's how I roll my joints. I just use ultra-slim filters for my smokes, though, as I don't like smoking tobacco without a filter.

Hey, started smoking about 3-4 months ago due to a stressful job, I have been smoking mostly Marlboro fags, but I think the taste is a little to harsh so I have started trying out different brands.
Any advises on some good fags?

To all you smokers out there, it ain't fucking cool. It's not something that you can just be like "oh yeah, i already smoke, so deal with it" about.

The thing most of you are failing to understand is that you're not just doing harm to yourself. Second hand smoke is just as bad. I speak from experience here. My entire family smokes (inside), and they have since i was born. My mom smoked while she carried me. Now, my lungs are just as bad as a smoker's lungs. And I've never smoked a cigarette in my life. When i went to the doctor due to some pain and difficulty while breathing (i was 15), she looked at me, and said with sincere disappointment "you're a smoker, right?". That's how bad it is.

So while i really don't give a fuck about your health, do your children/non smoking friends/relatives a favor and quit, because there's no such thing as simply not smoking around them.

Try Malboro Beyond, the ones with a small menthol ball in the filter that you break. I hate menthol cigarettes, and so did most of the people I recommended the beyond's to, however it tastes nothing like menthol cigarettes but it has the silky smooth smoke that they do. No one I recommended them to have smoked anything else since :p


P.S Haven't smoked for a month now! It's weird, first week/10 days is so fucking horrible, then it goes away, and now a month later it's horrible again... IDK why...

Never tried the beyond, I used to smoke Marlboro Smooths, those were decent for a while but I think they changed the formula a few months after they were introduced because they suddenly tasted awful to me. Switched back to reds after that.

@Groog; yeah I guess depending on the person those cravings could come/go. Maybe get a vaporizer that you can use instead? Or are you just gonna stick to cold turkey?
