How many of you still enjoy some kind of "Analog smoke" even though you vape?

Any Black n' Mild smokers here?

I smoked cigarettes for many years before switching to a pipe. And then to stop smoking a pipe I try going cool turkey instead of cold turkey, which just got me smoking black n milds for the last couple of years. I haven't had any kind of smoke since the middle of January, nor can I have another again. If I pick one up again, that's it bye bye vaping. I've been smoking for way to long and honestly I'm tried of it. I hate stopping everyday to buy smokes. Always being tied down. It's not like that for me any more. If I forget my PV at home while I go run errands no problem. I like that

I've been vaping for a year and a half and I still smoke, not much but I do indulge in a few Salem Slim Lights. The longest stretch of time I could go without a cigarette was 6 weeks and I did that about 5 or 6 times while vaping. I love to smoke but had to give it up for health reasons. I go all week without smoking but on the weekend when I drink I buy a pack of smokes and usually smoke 7-10 and throw the rest out. I've been doing this routine for 4 months and its working well for me. I use to smoke a pack a day so I'm thrilled I can satisfy my craving with 7-10 cigs a week.

Oh by the way does anyone know how I can get the smoking banner at the bottom of my post off, seeing as I am smoking?

By "analog smoke", I don't mean ........./crack/mutantbabies, but a certain cigarette, a cigar, shisha, etc.

I still enjoy cigars very much, I love my Camacho Triple Maduro's or a Ligero-leaf cigar at times. Then there are the good old Black and Milds too.

I'll occasionally go to a hookah lounge or use mine at home, I still like a bunch of the Tangiers, Starbuzz, and Fantasia flavors.

Cigarettes is the touchy subject. I normally can't stand them at all anymore, it's hard for me to smoke one, so I don't. ONCE in a while, I still enjoy a Marlboro Smooth, yet its at most twice a year.

Am I alone here?

Only when I'm super-crazy-stupid stressed, I'll go bum a smoke and rip that filter right off. I used to hand-roll or smoke unfiltered Lucky's. Filters are for pansies. :evil:

im not smoking anything now...but in reading this thread, it brought back a memory from years ago. i love the smell of a good cherry blend pipe tobacco. years ago when you could still smoke in stores, i would follow around till i found the pipe smoker. sometimes i would compliment them on their choice of tobacco. man, i sure wish i could smell that smell again......i am going to experiment now with flavors to see if i can duplicate that wonderful aroma. thanks for this thread.....gonna find me some cherry blend......any ideas?

I chain smoked for over 30 years, really had tried everything. Haven't had one cigarette since the day I started vaping. And it wasn't even hard for me - I loved vaping from the very start and just treated the whole thing like smoking - set my intention and never looked back.
They smell disgusting to me now.
That was over 3 years ago. I'm still declaring it miraculous.

I was a B&M guy, pretty sure I could smoke one again. I was a big cigar fan and hookah fan. favorite cigar was Romeo and Juliets, and favorite hookah flavor was Orange Tic Tac (mix of orange, vanilla and menthol). Still have my hookah, but I don't use it. Been meaning to hang out with some friends at the lounge, but plans always fall through. Never piped smoke, even though I wanted to. But, probably never will because I don't need another hobby like that. The only cigarettes I ever liked were hand rolled ones. Quality tobacco and paper always made a good cigarette. Friend used to roll them in bulk, then give them to anyone who asked. No payment, no pay backs, just a free hand rolled cigarette. He was trying to get friends off of packs full of bad ...., and get them to enjoy quality stuff.

Orange tic tac, that's an idea lol. I've always mixed with mint, but some menthol shishas are out there too. Gonna have to give it a shot.

Black and Mild "Dark Blend", tried em?
