Pipe tobacco, when I do.

Assorted butts I find at the bus stop.

>AnorexicChanbiblejoint.jpg

Marlboro Reds

Nothing. I like my lungs.

What real men smoke.

>>1440436

Old School?

Depends on the cash flow. Marlboro Lights if I have money. If not, Pall Mall lights.

Also this.

>>1440453
I'll clarify. In Old School, the protagonist picks up a literary journal and reads reads this.

I hope nobody saw me pick up the cigarette butt of the sidewalk, but I'm all out and getting shaky and it's a nice long one, with just a smudge of lipstick from the old bird who dropped it when her bus pulled up.

i roll lucky tobacco
like a boss

>>1440455
Lucky Strikes remind me of my friends out on the west coast.
>>1440434
Camel Lights remind me of my ex-girlfriend at Christmas time.
>>1440442
Marlboro Reds remind me of giving up in Berlin.

OP here. I like these >>1440455 but they're rather hard to find where I'm from.
I like this too >>1440459

I smoke like a chimney. Looks like I'm not alone. Do we smoke more than other boards?

Lucky Strikes when I can afford tailor-made.

Otherwise roll-your-own winfield rum.

>>1440476

Yes.

Lucky Strikes

>>1440476

I smoke too. I like to imagine I'm Camus. He is so kawaiii :3

>>1440455
>>1440459
I like your style, bro. Same thing here. Occasional Marlboro red here and there as well.

I do like them cowboy killers myself

Lit smokes like a bastard!

my top three-

Malboro lights- Pricey, but they got me through uni. Used to love malboro blend 27, but don't sell em in uk anymore...
Camel blue (light) they always feel tighter than other cigarettes, and if the guy you runs the shop you buy em from it always seems you get a a bit more respect

golden V with red rizla and swan extra slim filters. Because i'm usually poor, and its a rugged smoke, lasts for days...

What kind of lighters does lit rate? I'm a clipper man myself, but have a soft spot for crickets...got myself a lucky gold coloured one...

smokes/spliff thinners- marlboro lights

papers- rizzla silver, rizzla blue, zig zag orange

lighters- red bics (the ones made in france are way better than those of us origin) and clippers when available, which is rare here (stateside)- a clipper is the best multi-tool for packin hog legs and sparkin hooters.

This topic has been covered to some extent, I believe we can finally move on to discussing literature at this point.

I have only ever smoked one cigarette in my life. It was a Marlboro Red or whatever.

usually camel filters, sometimes American Spirits when I want a slow smoke.

>>1440522

IM Corona Old Boy

This and only this. If you can afford it, get one. Smartest thing I ever purchased, after a nice hipflask.

Marlboro Reds.

>>1440464

No, I actually smoke butts I find at the bus stop.

How about you smokers head back to /fa/ ???

Funny you mention, I just came from there

no.

ITT: A bunch of hipsters who only smoke because they idealize themselves as an author, not because they actually are addicted or like cigarettes.

DON`T SMOKE.

>>1440668
>a wild assumption on how people live their lives

>>1440668

Actually, if you really like to know, personally, if there was no smoke that came from cigarettes, I'd never smoke a day in my life except possibly to see what it was like. I just like how cool the smoke looks and all the stuff you can do with the smoke. It's actually fun for me to smoke cigarettes. I'm not addicted (thankfully) and I'm definitely not a hipster.

>>1440455
>>1440459
we'd get along pretty well

American Spirit Full Bodies (inb4 hipster; they last me longer than reds)
Marlboro Reds
And because all my co-workers smoke them: Camel Wides, Newport Menthols, Camel Filters, and Parliament.

I'm broke & I like smelling like a creepy old guy.
(Not so much the second part; I'm just broke...)

Smoker here, smoking these days feels like being chased out by the angry village mob. Why all the hate other than second hand smoke?

I've never considered myself addicted to cigarettes, and I only have two or three a week at the most, but when I quit outright for awhile, I still get withdrawal coughs. Sucks.

>>1440731

Unless you're coughing up a lot of phlegm & shit, you may just be coughing occasionally.

Marlboro Menthol 100s

With menthol down, my transformation into nigger is almost complete

>>1440766
Anything other than these and you are not a "nigger"

People who say stuff like "DON'T SMOKE" shouldn't be here. Not because smoking is good, but because they lack any argument to support their position. I can only assume that's a stance they were taught by television and cheap magazines, just like their parents and grandparents learned to smoke decades before. The rebels today are against the rebels of yesterday.

Saying no to cigarette, today, is more than just refusing an unhealthy habit, for it has a religious aspect to that "no". A weird leap of faith created by a previously constructed state of mind, that is just speaking through that person. In our western society, things are divided now by healthy and unhealthy, good and bad, more or less. We are not naturally perceiving our world and responding to it, we are responding to computers and calculators, that, although accurate, does not speak to complicated scenarios such as how we feel and live.

I once heard that a cigarette you smoke takes 7 seconds out of your life expectancy. And oh wow, how many calculations did it take to get to this number? How many seconds of life do I get by eating a salad? How many seconds of life do I lose by sitting here on this computer without moving my ass? Should I be jogging in the countryside eating oats right now? Health is not as black and white as this and, even though I'm perfectly aware of the down side of the cigarette, I don't count them as "points". How about mental health? The relaxation effect from nicotine, clearing our minds and tingling my hands. How about the health that comes from routine? After all, lighting a cigarette is more than just necessity or recreation, it's a ritual, just like dinner or shaking hands, an important aspect of the human experience. It seems like all that ritualistic side of the cigarette myth was taken from people's mind just to open space for a suicidal status.

>>1440787 cont.
The power of fire, the awareness and control of the air that goes into the lungs, the hand always occupied, if not writing, drawing, building... holding a cigarette. There is a very powerful image to it that is just delightful to experience. And those experiences are lost, when health extremists, warriors fighting for the idealistic life (what a load) grow despise for anything that is different from "the right way", a way imposed by all that surrounds them.

If one doesn't like cigarette, I say with no hostile intentions: good for you. That is the healthier choice indeed, but please realize that it's no more noble or right than the choice of the smoker.

>>1440668

smoking because it looks cool is really the only viable reason.

I agree with much of what you say, but
>The power of fire, the awareness and control of the air that goes into the lungs, the hand always occupied, if not writing, drawing, building... holding a cigarette. There is a very powerful image to it that is just delightful to experience
This is just narcissism on such a basic level. You like the image of yourself smoking? Come on, health crusaders may be acting from a religious impulse sometimes, but this is not a good reason to smoke, it's a good reason to put a cigarette in your mouth and fervently pretend to smoke, because you'll get the same amount of enjoyment, and it will be healthier and cheaper. At least from this post it appears you're in love with the image of yourself smoking, which is honestly a lot worse than the occasionally reductive Western dualism, imo. Nicotine for relaxation at least makes some damn sense.

I'll pass on that tobacco.

>>1440787

don't smoke because:

1. smells like shit & makes you smell like shit
2. impairs your lung capacity, worse at physical activity
3. stains your teeth, bad breath
4. it's a fucken rip off $$
5. throat cancer
6. lung cancer
7. impairs your immune system
8. cancer in general
9. waste of time, waste of life
10. makes your clothes smell like shit
11. makes your apartment/house/car smell like shit
13. you're paying to get cancer lol
12. addictive? (maybe)

I tried smoking two times in my life, only lasted a week, I don't see how people get addicted to this gross habit...the cigs themselves were nasty and I couldn't even finish a pack

god damn humans are stupid as shit

>>1440814
I can highly recommend a 7 percent solution of cocaine...

>>1440824

>god damn humans are stupid as shit

hence why they smoke.

>>1440812
Maybe "image" was not a good word. I meant that these symbols echo in our minds when we smoke, just like we have a sense of duty towards social activity, for example. It's not about how we look like or how we feel about ourselves, it's about what we do and what we don't. Just like body language translate into emotions or how we like to read a book in an specific enviroment or at an specific time of the day, or people who walk back and forth when thinking. This is natural, from instinct and the reaction we get in our brains from the smoking process is just as natural. Those concepts I mentioned were just my guess for what attracts people to smoking, but it's not deliberate, it's unconscious.

>>1440824
Reminds me of a list from Dominic Diamond's Guide to Video Games.
1. It's not big, and it's not clever
2. Smoke impairs your vision
3. It reduces control of the joystick

etc. etc.

I smoke a brand I only recently discovered called Pyramids because they're $3.19 a pack, and they make me think of Pyramid Head. I also smoke copious amounts of pot.

>>1440824

1. I like how it smells
2. don't give a shit
3. I brush my teeth 3 times a day, like everybody else
4. I've got plenty of money
5. don't give a shit
6. don't give a shit
7. don't give a shit
8. don't give a shit
9. it's not a waste of time if I enjoy doing it, is it?
10. I like how it makes my clothes smell
11. I don't smoke in my car or apartment
13. lol don't give a shit
12. don't give two shits

>>1440824

>1. smells like shit & makes you smell like shit

Only if you chain smoke.

>2. impairs your lung capacity, worse at physical activity

Fried chicken makes you worse at physical activity too, but it's not socially vilified for some reason.

>3. stains your teeth, bad breath

Only if you chain smoke. Coffee does the same shit as well.

>4. it's a fucken rip off $$

Eh, there are more expensive vices.

>5. throat cancer

Your genes determine your cancer risk much more than any smoking will ever do.

>6. lung cancer

See above.

>7. impairs your immune system

Never heard this one. I didn't die last time I got a cold though, so it must not be that serious of an impairment.

>8. cancer in general

See above.

>9. waste of time, waste of life

He says while posting on 4chan.

>10. makes your clothes smell like shit

Only if you chain smoke.

>11. makes your apartment/house/car smell like shit

Only if you chain smoke.

>13. you're paying to get cancer lol

Where the hell is 12? Also see above.

>12. addictive? (maybe)

Oh there it is. Of course it's additive. So is coffee. So is gambling. So is masturbation. What of it?

>>1440841
>Likes how it smells
>Likes the way it makes his clothes smell

>>1440824

All 4 of these are personal choices.

You decide what to do with your time and money, and let other people worry about themselves.

>>1440965

I am so fucking sick of people arguing whether or not tobacco smells good or bad.
Someone says they like how it smells: ain't much further we can take it from here.
Get fucked, buddy.

>>1440965
I find it kinda sexy to taste smoke on a women.

>>1440982

>>1440916
Not really.

Why start smoking? Like really? We know it's unhealthy and I've never heard of a person who tried their first cigarette without hacking their lungs up. What is it about cigarettes that lead people to keep using them until the enjoy it. Same thing with beer. Tastes like shit

>>1441044

Holy fucking faggots, Batman!

I don't always go out, but when I do I smoke Black Russians.

I don't always smoke, but when I do I put some acid and anti-freeze into my mouth and its about the same thing.

>>1441097
...That's not what that's like at all...

>>1441065
None of those are cigarettes. It's like asking what kind of beer do you like and you say: no alcohol beer, coca-cola and tea.

>please realize that it's no more noble or right than the choice of the smoker
Second hand smoke is worse than that inhaled directly by the cigarette. Cigarette butts are a major burden on the shared environment. These are two ways in which a smoker already impinges on my choices as a human being by virtue of smoking. As such, the choice between smoking and not smoking is not equal; to smoke is less noble.

roll my own. bali shag is zee best

American spirits because i'm rich? and those bitches burn

The im Carona is essential. I carry mine with me at all times. My new favorite cigarette is Shepheard's Hotel. Hard to find, but a brilliant flavor.

>>1441473
>Second hand smoke is worse than that inhaled directly by the cigarette.
A bold claim that is yet to be proven. And no one here is talking about smoking next to non-smokers at all.

>Cigarette butts are a major burden on the shared environment.
Now this is complete bullshit. First because cigarette butts are minimum to the enviroment, actually most things from our daily routine are minimum if you compare them to industrial levels. It's not about being a hipocrit, but it's quite clear that while the middle class struggles by stopping the running tap water while shaving, the rich industries are wasting tons and tons of water everyday. A protest, a lawsuit and customer's demand does much more than this daily delusional grains of sand in the desert. Second, because, as said before, we all have our share of guilt about the enviroment, for there are things we don't even acknowledge that are hurting the enviroment right now. Just for being part of the system you're helping it.

Of course, this two things does not excuse for one more bad thing, one could say. But my point is not about being good or bad, my point is that people always see things in those terms! So for example, as I know that cigarette butts are bad for the enviroment, it's under my responsability to quit and to help out, right? So why are even buying packages and packages of stuff everyday? -- and most of them are not even necessary, like food -- and helping these big companies rise, creating more and more garbage with plastics and cell phone parts, chewing gum and paper? If one is complaining about a minor thing such as a cigarette butt, than all the other superfluous and harmful tiny actions should be included here too. It's the argument of a hippie coming from an urban person.

>>1441503
You should look up cigarette butts' impact on the environment. You would be surprised. The issue is not entirely with how much of the toxins are deposited in the environment, but where and how.

The second hand smoke I'm not bothered about, since it's fairly easy to put in place laws about smoking in public. The above issue on butts could be solved by banning those stupid filters.

>>1441487
what do you mean they burn? i bought a pack out of curiosity. i couldn't get the damn thing to pull at all. it takes considerable effort to get a descent drag. perhaps i packed them too tightly, but for sure no more than with other brands of cigarettes.

>>1441477
nice. back when i smoked rollies i searched far and wide for my favorite tobac. i ended up discovering a brand which i now forget the name of, but it was halfzware shag; as is the tobac you posted. you sir, have good taste.

there can only be one. thanks for reminding me to light up my 10th of the day.

>>1441507
>You would be surprised.
I know I would, kid. Those things are always surprising. Have you ever being to a dump? A really big one? I got to see one in Brazil when I was 12 years old, shocked me for life. It's just too much for us to handle, it's not a small problem, it's a huge problem. We are taking from somewhere (wood, stone, metal, water) and leaving it somewhere else, in piles and piles of things that could be used by nature, but are just filling in space. Smoke, contamined water, people looking for food in the middle of a desert of garbage. This is just the tip of the iceberg.

But since that trip, when I actually felt how bad the situation was, I try to live in a eco-friendly way. The thing is, as I grew older, it was harder and harder, I got out of my parents house, I had no money, I couldn't afford any green products, I lived with friends who wouldn't give a fuck about the environment and my neighborhood did not recycle, so it was useless to separate the garbage. So, what can we do? I started to realize this was less and less about me, not because I was running from resposibility, for I know that to do good to the enviroment is a sacrifice, but I figured how little I was in this system and how that was not to solution to the world's problems. I cannot expect everyone to make this sacrifice and I should'nt.

I don't count points, as I said. It's not about doing bad here and doing good there. But I never throw my trash in the streets, I put it in my pockets, I never even throw cig butts in the streets, because I like a clean street and I don't want to clog anything in case of a flood. But what my city does to the trash bins? Who knows.
