prolly not but they're fine for my uses. i just never managed to roll my own acceptably. my mom swears by it though and she doesn't like the cones. i guess it's just personal preference

@DirtBasedSoap

dude he is so fucking funny

I havent been all that involved in following stand up the last few years so the only new specials I had watched had been Dave Chapelle, Jerry Seinfeld, and Jim Gaffigan I think. But then I randomly stumbled upon a clip Tom Segura telling his Tommy Lee Jones story on YouTube and now Ive watched all four of his Netflix specials which were all great and now Im watching new stand up almost every day

They are really addictive

I thought I was "smart" enough to not get hooked after a couple, but I'm not.

---

I've had a couple cigarettes but they didn't really do anything for me.

no yeah i buy the cones and fill them myself. the pre-rolled ones are a poor value in my experience

Eh no. Ive known several smokers live long. It just makes it more miserable in the end. But as i always tell people somethings gotta kill me.

Grandmother on one side made it to 90. Grandad made it to 69 but it wasnt smoking that killed him and he smoked 3 packs a day. He did quit a few years before dying though

It can shorten your life but its not a definite thing.

Cigarettes deplete dopamine, that's not gonna bring you out of a funk. If anything it'll help bury you in one

---

Kurt Vonnegut at age 82, wanted to sue Pall Mall for not killing him as promised.

I'm not a regular smoker, but I do have a few pipes I enjoy once in a while. They're also conducive to indulge in my ardor for nifty lighters.

Don't do it. I'm a smoker of 15+ years and I wish I never picked them up. I also lack the willpower to drop the habit.

---

tbh i tried smoking a cigarette out of curiosity once and it was so nasty i never did it again

i smoked weed before i ever smoked a cigarette so i guess my brain just went "what point of smoke if no get high"
