I've been smoking reds for the past two years. switched to golds and the only difference is that I can drag harder because it's easier on my throat, so the buzz balances out because I'm getting more smoke even if it is less potent. also reds make you look trashy, the golds are so much more aesthetic.

>>14119518
why would I smoke a product that stinks, has been engineered to be addictive, has undisclosed ingredients, a very high cost, no flavor, and a filter which turns brown due to heat, not tar collection?
I would rather smoke a lower cost, less complex tobacco that pours out great smelling smoke that lingers for an hour, and that doesn't pretend to be something it's not.

>shitty skin and a smokers cough is /fa/

Ok.

Golds taste like shit. Tbh I can’t smoke any Marlboro cigs because they taste like chemicals to me.
Camel filters, reds, and Turkish royals are all much better cigarettes.
Rolling your own is pretty decent too it’s just that lately I can’t be fucked to do it because it’s too cold for my fingers to work outside

you've never smoked a pipe. smoke in the break room, walking outside, where ever. The most expensive pipe I've ever had was a $35 briar, and the cheapest was a $4 chinese cob that burnt out after 20 bowls. I upgraded to a $6 missoui cob that's lasted 3 years now. My $20 briar has been here 8 years. I go it at Walgreens, which I don't even know if they still set tobacco or not. The pouch of PA was $2.50 at walmart. Carter Hall is the same product but with a cocoa taste. It's simply the cheapest way to smoke.
The only negative is that a bowl lasts 8 minutes, unlike a 4-7 cigarette.
>>14119670
>>14119686
If you want real turkish tobacco, don't look for the words 'turkish' or 'orriental', look for the word 'latakia'. It's a leaf hank that's been cedar and pine smoked in a barn and tastes fucking amazing. Turkish is just a hold over word for tobacco imported from the northern and levantine ottoman empire, but could be grown anywhere. You might like 'perique', which is made only in Louisiana. It's a fermented leaf in it's own fluids that tastes like funky mushrooms.

>>14119769
>I'm the only one who's cool enough to have smoked a pipe in his life!
I only smoke a pipe when I camp. Otherwise it's wildly inefficient and clunky to anyone who actually has a real job

>>14119769
Why not just role your own cigs anon? Plus, anyone smoking a pipe under 80 years old looks like a tryhard faggot.

>>14119683
Good.

>>14119777
If you think a pipe is clunky is inefficient, you don't smoke a pipe or are doing it wrong. learn to smoke better.
>>14119779
I used to do buglers for a while, but cigarette tobacco is lacking in the flavor that large volumes of pipe tobacco produces. Pipes aren't inhaled like cigs, so there's no fast rush of nicotine, or a desire for it. A pipe isn't a fashion accesory, but if it had to be one, it is best to have a straight stem briar, and to wear a short jacket or sweater [not a cardigan], and avoid hats as the focus of the look is conflicted between to major visual elements.

>>14119796
hipster faggots like you are why pipes are stigmatized now. you don't understand the purpose of pipes, you literally just want to look quirky and unique.

>>14119815
To relax. If you have to go stand outside in the cold for 30 minutes it completely defeats the purpose. If you can't sit down and have nothing else to worry about for the next hour, just blast a cig at that point.

>>14119687

>>14119818
All of your posts are nothing but you being pompous faggot who thinks he's superior for smoking a pipe. It's clear you only do it so you can feel superior, otherwise you would just say "I like to smoke a pipe" rather than "anyone who doesn't smoke a pipe and smokes cigarettes instead is a retard, oh you prefer cigarettes, that's because you have never smoked a pipe before because youre inferior, I smoke a pipe line a true gentlemen, so I would now, I have been smoking a pipe for 8 years"

I didn't say those words. You said those words. There is some sort of strange business going on in your mind that's you're projecting towards me, but that's your business, and I'm not going to share it with you.

>>14119518
i prefer cigars/cigarillos

>>14119857
Amazing flavour and a slower acceptance of nictorine. Nicotine is absorbed via any sort of contact with your body - like how powdered snuff was snorted in the 1700s. You don't inhale it, because you don't need to, and you did it would be like inhaling a cigar [nictotine ovrdose, nausea, puking, turning stark white, bloating, and feeling like shit for an hour or two]

On the positive side, one bowl lasts me 2 days. My uncle was weaned off 30 years of cigarettes with a pipe, then quit. We also get fewer cases of cancer compared to cigarette users.

>>14119870

evidently you haven't read that study. they were looking at LD50 doses (i.e, toxic) in mice, over 2 years. over 25 times the normal amount of nicotine a person would get.

also, it caused alopecia across the entire body, not the androgenic localized balding you see in humans.

smoking is still lame, but don't post shit you don't understand.

In England our Golds have a standard Red coloured filter. Only shitty menthols are white.
(Sidenote- thankfully menthols are getting banned in UK this year so people will have to grow the fuck up and smoke actual cigs)

Yes, it does. Smoking and nicotine decreases your bloodflow in your body and therefore fucks your follicles. Same reason why smoker's skin doesn't age well. Cigs also do mutate your dna. No shit. Most mutations are harmless but many csn turn into cancer or trigger illnesses.

>>14119575

>>14120902
also smoking nice strong cigs can be a lot healthier than lights. i've been smoking nas blacks on and off for a couple years but i've never really felt the urge to smoke all the time. something like marb golds is never satisfying, it's impossible for me to buy a pack and not finish it in a couple days. with american spirits i can smoke a couple times a day and one cigarette is more than enough whenever i need a smoke.

They’re expensive, hard to find, harsh and have a weird taste and numbing sensation in the mouth. Word on the street when I was in high school was that they were for Uber badasses but you weren’t supposed to inhale them because they had an egregious amount of harsh shit in them.

>>14124580
>It's not. It's just "I know I'm destroying myself and I don't care" attitude for people with no personality

Not really either you like cigs or you don’t. Most people after smoking once don’t ever do it again. Stop being a little projecting faggot. People smoke because they enjoy the flavor and it’s relaxing, if it’s also inherently cool then it’s just an added bonus

I don't understand how people get addicted to cigarettes. Tried it a few times at various parties or just out with friends and it does absolutely nothing for me.

there's an old truth about cigars; the worst cigar on earth is right next to the best - they're wearing the same wrapper.
Cigars are 99% identical, it's just the way the industry works. The whole notion of blending masters, wrapper flavor, and nation of origin traits is bullshit. It's just part of the marketing campaign that been done since the 1880s. We're comparing tobacco to tobacco, not apples to grapes.

If you want a hand rolled cigar, don't spend more than $1-3, as after that point the remaining price tag is pure mark up/profit. There is no jump in quality. If you want to try cigars just in general, try any non-sweetened, non-flavored machine made cheapie. They have caribbean basin tobacco filler, which is what hand rolled cigars have, but because the short cut filler of a machine cigar tend to have more stems, it can taste more potent, but aren't that different from hand rolled to be totally honest. Phillies, White Owl, Swischer, Garcia Y Vega, are all the same thing and cost like 80c ea.

>>14125955
ps - if this is just for fashion, get a cigar to match your face. The tinner your face, the longer the cigar, the rounder, the shorter the cigar. Anthony and Cleopatra candelas [the green ones] can be somewhat sappy and bitter, but are pretty. For a round face, go with thinner cigarillos.
A larger ring guage, like a blunt [36+] is hard to make pretty.
