Is The Metro UK a real newspaper or just a tabloid? Because sometimes it's hard to tell the difference anymore.
My biggest question is: Does this man actually smoke cigarettes? Oddly, that's not mentioned in the article..

on a normal person, that is not the location of the heart. it's a myth that the heart is located "on the left side of your chest."
it is located in the middle, directly behind your sternum.
the myth came about because the heart is asymmectrical - the right side (the part that pumps blood to the lungs) is smaller than the part that pumps to the rest of the body (right side.)
because of that, i'm skeptical about the article.
maybe it's just shitty reporting.
definitely shitty ubering.

I have the same question as you - does this guy actually smoke? I sure fucking hope not.
And as a former smoker, I have to say that I can't stand the smell anymore. It's weird when I think back to my 2 pack a day habit - you couldn't pay me to put a cigarette in my mouth now. Back then I swore I'd die with a cigarette in mouth.

=====================
I do on occasion smoke a cigarette, but how someone gets to the two pack a day watermark? my god, I dont know where you would get the TIME to smoke that many! did you work at some sort of cock fighting ring or something where you could smoke constantly? Wow.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I used to smoke about two packs a day, but back then I was either drunk or stoned nearly all the time. I think that facilitated things a bit.
I tried smoking a few cigarettes a couple of months ago and I felt like shit the rest of the night.

we used to buy 'Smokes' brand for $.98 a pack. this was in 1996, to give some perspective.
as long as you didn't get stabbed or shot in the lot of one of the two places in town that sold them it was the best damn deal in town.
my personal fav was Chesterfield Kings.

Still smoking, maybe a pack and a half a day.
Always menthol, but I could care less what brand. I usually buy the cheapest available.

The bar scene here has been drastically re-aligned.
The popularity of a bar is almost solely based upon the size & quality of its outdoor smoking patio.

I must admit, I much prefer the non-smoking bars now for myself, but I frequent both about the same amount, because I usually hang with at least one or two smokers.

Don't you read the blurb from the DEA? Smoking weed is worse for you than smoking tobacco.
<HACK!!>
Actually, going to a bar and being forced to go outside to smoke makes me smoke less during the night. I suppose it's better for me, but it pisses me off.

I know Sacrilicious is a reformed smoker and is probably working up a curse to send us through the internet, but what the fuck. Let's heat it up.
===
HAHA- Talking about smoking doesn't bother or tempt me. On the rare occasions that I get nostalgic about having a cigarette, the thought passes quickly and if I did it out of the blue, it would make me nauseous, which is one safety I have (I know some people can go months or years and go right back to smoking all night, but it makes me feel sick). My best friend still smokes around me and a little second hand smoke doesn't bother me as long as I'm not completely inundated with it. There's only one bar I can't go to anymore because the ventilation is so bad I can't breathe in there, but even some smokers don't like to go there. I'm confident that I will never be a smoker again.
Most of the hand rollers I know use Drums.

Colorado started this bullshit thing two years ago about no smoking in bars. My wife, who has COPD, thinks the whole thing is bullshit. She says that if it bothers her, she will go elsewhere. The right of business owners should trump the whining patrons.
Good for you for giving up the weed for good. I probably should, but I enjoy it too much. We all gotta go somehow. . .

A pack of skins over here will set you back 30p tops. Never seen Bugler ones and I think Buffalo might be an over the pond thing only. Do they have the extra long skins to make joints from over there?

Man, that sounds really cool. I doubt I'll be able to find one of those though, seems to be the standard Sherlock look over here, which is still pretty cool.
And I buy reasonable skins, Zig-Zag usually, or these ones called Buffalo when I can find them.
==================
Back in my pipe smoking days my wife bought me a special pipe. It had Douglas MacArthur's face carved on the front. It was fucking awesome.
Zig-Zags are fucking expensive here. The Bugler papers are 99c for 115. Haven't seen Buffalo. Are they only sold in the UK?

Tips are like 60p a packet over here or something, you're getting ripped off dude.
And I tried that, but it makes it go more like small pieces of bark and tears the skin. I also tried mixing it with regular baccy but the taste was too diluted. There's a smoking shop in town and I reckon I can pick on up for cheap tomorrow.
=============================
Stop buying those cheap skins. :)
Way back in the old days (thirty years ago), I smoked a corn-cob pipe. It was the standard MacArthur type, with the cob being about four inches tall. That sucker held almost an ounce of tobacco. My co-workers always wanted to 'borrow' it to take on break... :)

Sure, we can get filters for roll yer own, but it costs more. I'm a cheap fucker.
As far as the pipe tobacco and rolling it, let some set out uncovered for a day or two, just enough to let it dry sufficiently to crumble it up for rolling.

I'm currently on the market for a pipe (Sherlock style) as I was given a bag of whiskey flavoured pipe tobacco which is too moist and thick to roll in skins.

I'm not much on 'flavored' tobacco, just like I don't care for flavored coffee. I smoke menthol, and have all my life. The first bag of menthol tobacco I bought damn near killed me, being unfiltered when you roll your own. The next time, I saw they had "menthol light." It turned out to be pretty decent.

I started out with Bugler, but that shit costs too much. There is a chain of tobacco outlets here called Smoker Friendly, and they hawk their own brand. A six-ounce bag for $8.99. That will last me 3 to 4 weeks, and papers are only 99c for 115. Not a bad deal, and the smoke is not that bad for being cheap.

The Metro is not a real paper, well it is in the sense that it is made out of 'real' paper but the journalism couldnt really be decribed as great. It is mostly used as something to while away a few moments on the tube reading the front page of some sitting opposite you, because you got up too late to grab one yourself.
That and giving the tramps something to lie under.
