A cylinder of tobacco, the food of the gods, in a delicate and flammable paper, which the adept lights, like Carmen in the opera, and blissfully inhales the fumes thereof. These fumes fill her or his sexy body with a godlike transformation in which the petty concerns of the bourgeois everyday are seen as through a mauve haze that anticipates in the dreary world of everyday, the pleasures of the souk. The cigarette attests one's morality and thereby one's defiance of that morality, and it is truly said of the antismoker, the tears of the Philistine are the Nectar of the Gods.
Give me a cigarette, said Jean-Paul Sartre to Simone de Beauvoir in the Deux Magots. "You smoke too much", said de Beauvoir. Sartre said, you have contracted with me never to say a petty-bourgeois thing, nor to hold me to the dreary and suburban expectations of small minds. Are we not as gods, who must tragically, and in the absence of god, determine our lifespan by acting as committed members of a self-conscious vanguard? I know that Heidegger would call upon us to acknowledge the mystery of Being (Sein) in Time (Zeit) but we refuse the mysterious and peer into a desacrilized world in which sacrifice of short-term instinct must be examined, not for its utility to be sure, in a petty bourgeois spirit which again, I refuse, but for its worth as a gesture of defiance. Therefore give me a cigarette, ho.

a pinch of dried and shredded tobacco rolled in smoking paper which usually has a filter attached to the end to make the smoke less harsh.
Cigarettes are the best thing out there. Nicotine is probably the only thing that keeps me sane. And you bitches out there that complain about secondhand smoke (i even read on an earlier post someone saying secondhand smoke is twice as bad(???)) should shut the fuck up. You're a bunch of pussies. I love ciggies and i smoke them whenever I feel like it. And yes, I know they cause cancer you fucking idiots. I read the stupid ass warnings on every pack I buy and laugh at them before I light one up. Sorry, I don't really give a fuck if I die before I'm 70 because who the hell wants to be that old anyway. We're all going to die anyway so why not enjoy it? Good cigarette brands include Marlboro, (not ultralights) Camel and Parliments are okay.

Bob- Why do you smoke cigarettes? Don't you know you're killing yourself and the people around you with secondhand smoke!?
Me- Bitch, shut the fuck up secondhand smoke isn't shit and if you're so worried then get the fuck away from me.
Bob- Oh you're right, sorry I'm a dipshit

The reason why your friends and family lost some respect for you. Also the reason why your teeth and spit are yellow and black and your dick is going limp after a few minutes of sex.

A magic wand that destroys your lungs, clears up your brain, and kills millions of people without effort.
This magic wand can also cause you to see things that aren't there.

Tobacco rolled up in paper with a filter. They are smoked in order to obtain the nicotine in the tobacco. Some people are social smokers (1-3 a day) and some are heavy smokers (a pack a day). Some smoke even more.
Cigarettes were cool and acceptable in the 1920s-1960s but today they are considered uncool. They are responsible for many deadly diseases like lung cancer and strokes. In many parts of North America you can only smoke outside, in your home or in certain hotel rooms. People look like idiots when they try to hold them.
For those earlier posters who try to defend smoking: You're not fooling anyone. We are trying to help you realize you are wasting your money on something that will kill you. Don't ask for sympathy when you get lung cancer from me. Smoking is the most disgusting habit in the face of the earth and if you smoke, you're inferior.
