Lucky strikes are the shit. You can get good prices on them online by the carton (If you live in America or wherever else they aren't sold)
haha my friend who is normally against me smoking got some bubble mixture and she made me go through like 4 ciggies doing smoke bubbles :v:

rollies over tailors in my experience. Taste and quality is usually better, plus you get the satisfaction of rolling your own stuff.
holy fucking shit using a match instead of a lighter makes the cig taste way better. and i'm not just talking about the initial light, for some reason a wooden match makes the entire cigarette taste better.
it's the same thing with joints, imo.
i bet it does. i'm googling why it tastes better [editline]11th August 2012[/editline] well it seems anything except wooden matches or butane lighters produce byproducts that get stuck all the way through the tobacco in the cigarette to the filter. cigars too. honestly i think they taste like shit light without a match now for some reason.
[IMG]http://puu.sh/QGWj[/IMG] Represent. Like $12 AUD for a 20 pack... but worth it. Cheap shit like Holiday / Choice arent much cheaper and they're way worse lol Also I'll try using a match :V

Well, I have to bite on the matter. I've been around a few smokers recently, old friends and what not. I've not really smoked at all (tried once, got very unwell), but the past few days, so many of my friends have had a smoke, it's been difficult to avoid actually breathing in the second hand stuff. Yet, I didn't mind the smell of it. It might be me getting used to the actual smell, but somehow it has made me curious to whether it's worth it. As a student though, it might be difficult money wise, as well as some anti-smoking parents (one is on nicotine gum though) Don't suppose anyone would have some general thoughts on the matter? It's just left me confused, and debating whether I feel it'd be worth considering or not.

It's your life though. Personally I find the act of smoking relaxing.
i agree with the above post. cigarettes are fuckin awesome. they taste good, feel good and make you feel like you look fuckin cool. but honestly in the end it isn't worth it. i'm cutting back tremendously, like a pack ever 1-2 weeks. i was able to curb my smoking with weed and it worked. i used to be the person who always needed a pack on them and smoked a pack every 2 days. the fact that you're basically considering taking up smoking is kind of stupid. there's no reason to start smoking and there are plenty of ways to get around it (toothpicks, sunflower seeds) also nicotine gum is insanely expensive. it's like 50 dollars for 30 of them or something retarded like that. nicotine gum is not a replacement for cigarettes, it's simply to help you quit. there is however a certain tobacco item called chew, or as we like to call it, dip. it's basically flavored tobacco that you put under your lip. that tastes like utter shit, but there is an awesome version of chew called "snus". what snus basically is is a wad of loose chew packed into a little thin paper pouch. you put the pouch under your lip and you've basically got a constant IV of nice nicotine and it's also very discreet (i'm pretty sure the only way someone can figure out if you're dipping is if they kiss you on the mouth or they see it or you packed way to much and there's this giant lump on your face). if you like the nicotine high/buzz but are wishy washy about smoking try some snus. i recommend camel's mellow flavor, it's my personal favorite.
Aye, as said, it's definitely more of a Pros Vs Cons thing - most cases I don't even go into things unless I have all of the information in front of me anyway. Just needed to get my thoughts straightened, but thanks for the honesty dude.
if you're looking for a buzz maybe electronic cigarettes? i dunno cause that might just be a gateway into actually smoking. the whole idea of smoking really is just this little habit you have that you can always do that kills a few minutes. there are other things out there that are probably better, like a rubik's cube or a gameboy...

But I would stiff spit it when I did use it. You basically use it subliminally.

The only problem i had with mine was i was CONSTANTLY using it, partially cause it tasted pretty awesome, and it's great for smoke trick practice. It's not like a cigarette that's gone in 5-10 minutes, it's got a battery that lasts for hours/days of usage. One advantage is that the E-liquid is pretty cheap, i usually bought from madvapes ([url=https://sphotos-a.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-snc7/285848_200639236668358_965425782_o.jpg]they're p cool[/url]) and a 30mL bottle would last a few weeks and was under $15. Any E-cig that takes proprietary cartridges is a cheap POS, they also usually have crap batteries (remember kids cheap Li-Ion batteries explode). I have the Joye eGo 510 with a 950mAh battery, haven't used it in a long time since my atomizer is burnt out and i haven't bought a new one.

Why did I come here when I'm considering quitting again. . .

I think Dip is pretty gross personally but I'm looking into getting an e-Cig. I'm guessing the e-cigs on DealExtreme aren't even worth my time?
oh trust me i think dip is disgusting but snus is a delicious treat.

Atomizers are about $2-4 for my ego 510, and they last a few weeks for me. The juice is a problem though, it's greasy and gross when spilled
Atomizers or cartomizers? I would use cartos if I started using my ecig again. Cheap and cleaning atomizers is kind of a bitch this thread is making me want a cigarette
I'm a relatively new smoker and immediately started rolling my own because it's apparent that it's cheaper in the long run. I tried out this stuff called drum but it's a tad expensive for a 1.5 oz package and then I have a huge barrel of 3 oz of Top tobacco which is a little harsher and the taste isn't as good as drum but for the price of 20 bucks for maybe more than a carton of cigs. Now I'm trying out pipes and just picked up a big bag of 12 oz of this pipe tobacco called Smoker's Pride called Vanilla Cavendish that is delicious and a great smoke.
[QUOTE=Lipschitz;37228361]Atomizers or cartomizers? I would use cartos if I started using my ecig again. Cheap and cleaning atomizers is kind of a bitch this thread is making me want a cigarette[/QUOTE] Cartos tend to produce more vapor in my experience, but it's a very warm, almost hot vapor. It's kinda nasty with some flavors. Atomizers last much longer and are much easier to refill.
Smoked a cig tonight, worried a bit for school.
Ironically, I never smoked (cigs) till I was put in this rehab type program. Newports are my favorite
it was funny cause in my rehab they almost pushed smoking on you.
