Smoking
 
Yeah, it's a nasty habit I know, but I'm addicted, what can I say? Nothing better than a cigarette and a pint of bitter. What's your brand? I roll my own tobacco because it saves me money and they've grown on me anyway.

I always liked Marlboro Reds, but I seem to be going off them in my old age. Newport Reds are pretty epic though. And of course it's gotta be a hundred. Anything else is just buying less cig for the same price.

When I was in the UK I liked silk cuts because they were really exotic to me and the name was appealing. As far as the actual tobacco was concerned... I'm not much of a connoisseur on the subject but I enjoyed the flavor. In Canada my preferred brand is Belmonts because they're strong enough (and expensive enough) to not want to chain smoke. Stateside I pretty much smoke whatever is available to me if and when I feel like having one. American Spirits are great in the summer because they last a long time, but come winter they can be a real nightmare. Generally I really only have one or two every few weeks now when I see my friends at game night and they smoke Camels so those are what I smoke.

Lambert and Butler are usually the ones I go for. They are the only brand that keeps giving me a slight rush for every cigarette. I used to roll Amber Leaf, but I can't be arsed. Also, I ended up smoking more. I now buy three packs of 10 a week maximum, usually two.

It's kind of funny that you saw them as exotic, they're one of the most popular brands on this side of the pond! Then again if I was to go over to American I would find all your brands exotic and fascinating. Silk Cut aren't bad though, I used to smoke them for a period.

I usually stick to Marlboro Gold, I've tried quite a few different brands and I've always found myself going back to them for some reason. I managed to give up smoking for three whole weeks recently but the urge to have a cigarette just kept getting to me and I just gave in.

Made to feel like a social leper on a recent visit to Florida. I must know every designated smoking area in Disney World by now!
Does anyone in the U.S. still smoke?

I ran out of rolling tobacco and was forced out of sheer desperation to buy Marlboro brand ciggys. An set of bellows surgically fitted up my arse was needed just to get a decent drag!!! :(

This is something that's really getting to me lately. Yes we know that smoking is bad for your health, it's kind of obvious and it's been plastered in our faces countless times, but over the past few years the media seems to be trying to guilt trip smokers into thinking that they're the scum of the earth and also giving the wider public the same view. The media should only be allowed to go so far with this. Next thing they will be showing ads with smokers breathing fire at old people.
