i take cigar tobacco from when ive rolled dutches (i have a nice bag of it in my closet lol) and i stuff it into cigarette tubes. (not rolling paper, it looks like a cig without tobacco, its what people actually use to make their own cigs). theyre really kinda nice, and look exactly like a cig so the cops dont take it from you and break it in half like a handrolled one.
sounds nifty Sorry what are dutches? Some form of joint? I'm not up with all this crazy teenage lingo! (hurr hurr)
haha. a dutch is when you unroll a cigar and roll a blunt with it. it used to be called a blunt, because thats all people had, but now with all the "EZROLL BLUNTZ" and such you gotta differentiate to let people know you rock the classics.
I usually roll my own with Virginia Gold shag, but if I'm feeling fancy I go for Djarum Supers or Blacks.
Go for it! Quit. You can do it. It'll be a lot easier to quit now than say like 25 years from now. I smoked for 3 years, and then quit. During that time I pretty much just smoked regular marlboro reds. I didn't ever really branch out and try different kinds, just always stuck with what I started with. Towards the end, I started rolling my own with the cheapest tobacco I could find, because at the time I was broke :ack2:
umm, I'm switching from Marlboro 27's. I've been smoking camel filter because they've been buy one-get-one free for the past month. I got a pack of 27's yesterday and I can't deal with the increased phlegm, so I don't know what I'm going to do. Thinking about it, it's sort of strange to want to smoke, but not actually like any brand. Usually it's the other way around. Hand rolled are nice, but it's a major inconvenience to roll them. Smoking lights always reminds me of dust and cobwebs. I really don't know why. I like the taste of the stronger cigarettes but don't like the phlegm. Hmm... (and I know the obvious answer is to quit, but that's not happening)
Lol. May I just include this is a PRO smoking thread We know it's bad for us but we damn well enjoy it. Yeah, I like to roll my own for sure. But taileys are alott prettier and classier.
holy shit, first time i meet another human being who smokes 27s besides me and my cousin and like 2 of my boys! props :cheers2: theyre the best fuckin ciggs! I dont buy ciggarettes that much, maybe 2 packs throughout the whole month. I smoke like 1-5 ciggs a day, not that much, sometimes zero like today, so far, zero, and its 6PM already. The story behind 27s: Years ago, before I was even 18, but after I got over the menthol rage from middle school, almost everyone smoked lights or newports still. My cousin, my boy whiteboy Frank, and Kike (kee-keh), all smoked lights but we thought they were too light, like smoking air, but we thought Reds were too strong. But Frank and kike who were working together painting, one day come home from work (we all lived in the same neighborhood) with a pack of 27s. I bum a ciggi off Frank or Kike, and OMFG. It was the perfect blend between lights and reds. Not too strong but not too weak. Since that day, I vowed to never buy anything but 27s, which is still the case except when Im coked up and need a newport. moral of the story: 27s are the best fuckin ciggarettes! I dont know much about handrolled ciggs, but I imagine they must be harsh as hell so fuck that. Im sticking to my 27s all day!
lol, we're a growing movement. I switched from Reds last spring. Actually, I believe in my heart that people who still smoke reds just haven't smoked a 27, because the 27 is plenty strong but has a better taste and smoke. But it feels like I'm part of a cult(in a good way). I've had a person see my pack and walk over to commend me on my choice. At parties I'll get into long conversations with people I just met about how 27's are the best cigarettes ever. It's like people are just thrilled to share with likeminded strangers. I've never seen or heard of something similar occurring with other brands. It's pretty sweet. And smoking rolling tobacco is actually pretty good. I get Bali Shag(aka bacon shag) for 5$ a pouch and that'll last me over a week. It's not harsh as much as strong. A skinny rolly has the same or more nicotine than a regular smoke. I like them except for the whole rolling part. It's too cold to sit down and do it outside, and my roommate won't let me roll them in my room because eventually tobacco gets everywhere. It's finding it that can be tough for people, but if you can you should definantly try it out. Even if it's only to become a kickass roller. PS) If you're smoking cig's daily you're going to get dependent after a while. I can almost guarantee it, because when people first smoke they don't like it that much, but as the brain become accustomed to it smoking actually becomes something enjoyable. I slowly got to the point where today I love smoking; it's just one more thing to go right with my day. Not preaching, just letting you know.
I'm not a everyday smoker only when i'm drinking or fucked up in some way. I usually smoke what I can get for buy 1 get 1 free lately it's been the camel crushes which are tight cause they can either be menthol or not. I agree 27s blend is pretty good been awhile since I've had one.
