The FDA is the evil department! Don't get them confused with the one that can tax, but not ban. It's not the "ATF" anymore anyway. Just like the INS is now ICE (thanks to the millions of dollars spent on research and development by the Dept. of Cool Acronyms), it's now the Dept. of Alcohol, tobacco, Fire Arms, Caffeine and Sugar (the latter two having been declared non-food additives after heavy lobbying by Starbucks). Why should there be labels? That's just more government interference! The next thing you'll want is labels on matches.

But it was first renamed the AFTE - E for explosives and moved to the Dept of Homeland Security. This info is courtesy of fas.org - a very interesting site, mind you. I think I'm gonna bookmark it.

(I'm so going to be on a watch list now after googling "Is anti-freeze flammable" last night and the ATF this morning :ohmy:)

I thought it was one of those that tell you another smoker is in the area. Personally, I think the odor is enough of a giveaway.

You still have a sense of smell? You really are a newbie. Don't worry, "Smoker's Nose" is very common. After being a vaper for awhile when you switch to cigarettes it can take a couple of months for your senses of smell and taste to disappear.

Jee-sy peet-s If you all are going to smoke then please at least do it right, I didn't think I was going to have to school you on the "cool" way......

And for those of you who want to go organic, well that block he is burning is tobacco, molasses and fruit called shisha. Yumm-o and just think how wonderful you will smell when your done.

ETA You can store your tobacco in the water for an extra flavor shot :D

Is there a "purse friendly" size for one of those? I don't want to call attention to myself when out in the wild...

OP, just buy the cigar. I wish I had listened when I first started smoking. I wasted a lot of money trying to get the same effect with cheap knock-offs, not understanding what all the hype was about.

OP - you need a twist cigar. twisted cigar.jpg
Nothing else is the same in a Lamborghini.

Some French Canadian guys told me the coolest way to attract women is too carry your pack tightly stuffed up the sleeve of your tee-shirt.

Do you have to be a contortionist?

Yes, if you're really serious about attracting women. There are other threads all over the internet regarding this topic, but be warned, googling for them will hijack your computer with endless popups that will require the purchase of a new computer to get rid of.

I've been looking for the perfect wallpaper for my phone.. i believe we have a winner. ground beef erupting out of a beautiful cigarette! How often do you see something that says: "yes the smokes will kill you but the beef will speed up the process."
Thank you Ocelot :wub:

No. I've only been smoking 3 days and I am just saying what I heard. I am going to get a Lamborghini tho. I think. Will my Virginia Slims go with one?

Sure, it'd be way cooler if your Virginia Slims are Lights. Especially when you visit NY, the Mayor will think you're weight conscious because you don't smoke the full flavored cigs. Make sure you order a Happy Meal too.

There you go again. I turn my back for 3 and a half minutes and the pro-cigar Lamborghini guys are back.

Newbie poster, do NOT listen to these guys. You don't need a cigar, you don't need a twist cigar, you don't need a variable voltage/wattage, self-filling, automatic immolation-stopping cigar with an incorporated rate of combustion chart. You don't need to line the domestic cigar mafia's pockets...

Ok, so maybe you WANT one 'cause all the cool cats got 'em, and they come in these neat collectible tins, and all, but no, I beg and plead, don't fall for all that tinsel.

Oh please don't get me started on packaging!! Just because the package they ship it to you in is tin, does NOT mean it is better! Or does it :confused:

Duh! How is anybody looking at you going to tell it's a real one and not a cheap, knock-off fake if you don't have the tin to wave under their noses? From some flimsy cigar band that isn't even in English? Logic 101.
