15. I still haven't figured that out
the green ones seem like lights to me. But they have lights in both the green and black. So I pick whichever is cheaper.

11. The problem that I have with salem black label...
... is, due to the slide box, I always open it upside down and 2 or 3 cigs go bouncing to the ground... every time!

20. It's a big cigarette for a big man.
And I don't think the observation that a cigarette will kill me is necessarily a novel one. ;)

44. Former Marlboro light smoker here.
I cannot smoke, since I am incapable of doing it in moderation. I quit from 1992 to 2000, and from 2002 to now. (I was pretty moderate in my smoking during the recent lapse into smoking, but the smoking seemed to make me more compulsive about eating and I gained weight. I was always either indulging in a smoke or a snack.)

After several months of quitting, I tried a cig and it made me almost sick. It's funny how a cigarette is only pleasurable when you are addicted and have that base blood nicotine level.

It's funny because I still enjoy the smell of second-hand smoke (so long as it's not a closed room), so I'm not as fanatical as some ex-smokers.

I wish I was still a teen so I could still smoke with no worrries, but with a wife, kids and 40 looming, I just can't do it anymore. Getting older bites.

46. You will be 35 in about 5 minutes.
Best to lay off the smokes sooner than later. They start to dictate your life. When you do things. I knew I had to quit when I would leave the movie theatre halfway through the film for a smoke.
