SMOKERS: Check this shit out!!!!
 

I thought something tasted fucked up with my Marlboros!

This is BULLSHIT!

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fire_safe_cigarette

I quit 5 months ago and am still smoke free.. not easy but staying strong

fsc cigs are old news....

not in FL & GA :2 cents:

7 Years Free from a 10 Year Addiction!

Its easy now.

to us true smokers they are... :)

I knew about them before they came here to nevada from traveling around.. and reading up on that shit yo... you telling me you smoke and don't keep up to date on the newest latest and shittiest smoking shit?

I Fucking hate them... with a passion .. specially if there is a drop of humidity.. I can only imagine florida how shitty it must be... here in nevada where "it's a dry heat" they keep going out if you don't smoke them like a fucking joint....

but what choice do we have? im not quitting anytime soon so...

I havent smoke a cig since April 2009... It gets easier every day, but is still hard...

Yea, we've had them here for awhile but I would just stock up on my monthly trip to Florida and after Jan1. The only state left without them is Wyoming and apparently its about the only state that I don't know someone that can mail me some non FSC... :(

i didn't know about until just now,

i did here about something a month ago when i was buying mine from the store I usually get them from, but the dam Indian guy, I didn't really know what the fuck he was saying and I really didn't give it much thought

i only smoke a pack a day though, not real hard core

do you know if rolling papers has this shit in it?

i might start rolling my own

Kools doesnt use FSC on their papers

from what i understand and read on wiki its in the paper

i have rolled my own in the past but that bugler or top shit is not the same as Marlboro tobacco

maybe if i empty the Marlboro tobacco out and re-roll it in some rice paper? but then i have to reattach a filter somehow

what a bunch of shit!!!!

the hell they don't

that's what my mom smokes for 30 years and she is the one that just called me and brought this to my attention

she actually emailed them last night and they replied today

here is what she said:

Message I Have smoked Kool cigarettes for 30 some years. I had no intention of quitting whatsoever, however; whatever you have incorporated into these cigarettes has changed my mind. I would not even think about buying another brand before..but this is ridiculous. They taste absolutely horrible...they burn out immediately and you don't even enjoy it anymore. Please take the chemical out. It must be from the no burn rule..am I right?

and they replied:
Dear Pam,

Thanks for letting us know about your concern with your cigarettes.

Current and pending legislation across the country requires cigarette manufacturers to sell cigarettes that meet Fire Standard Compliant requirements. Consistent with efforts to increase productivity and reduce complexity, R.J. Reynolds made the decision to convert to fire standard compliant paper on all its cigarette brands by the end of 2009, and your brand style was recently converted.

To meet these standards, we have changed the cigarette paper used in manufacturing our cigarettes.

There are bands at selected intervals on the cigarette paper that are somewhat heavier than the rest of the paper. These bands slow down the burn rate and increase the likelihood that the cigarette will go out. Although these cigarettes meet the standards established, they should be handled with the same care and attention as any other cigarette.

I am pleased to send complimentary coupons to you. Look for them to arrive within two-to-four weeks.

I want you to know that we do understand your concerns about the difference in your cigarettes and we appreciate you allowing us to assist you.

2 years free and counting! Thank you Chantix! :thumbsup

those are bad for your health!

Haven't done cigarettes in 7 years, but I still enjoy fine Cuban cigars and have one about once a week :D

Just go to your local tobacco store and buy a box of cigarette tubes and the injector machine. It's a cigarette with no tobacco in it and the machine somehow puts the tobacco in perfectly. My brother has one and they look exactly like regular cigarettes.

Not exactly news. Been around a while now.

You really think you have any chance at being a succesful fighter and smoking?

Yep you are smoking carpet glue

you will get used to it shortly.. give it a few months and you will not care.. for your info though.. the american spirt cigs are not fsc :)

lol, i already checked, (even though they taste like shit compared to a marlboro)

ATTENTION - All American Spirit Cigarettes are now "FSC". This means they are made using Fire Safe Paper. The Manufactuer is now making them this way for EVERY part of the country. They will no longer make them available anywhere without using this Fire Safe Paper. This is for ALL American Spirit styles.

I hope so... in fact id like a sponsorship from them :)

but knowing my luck that will be the only thing that stops me from a million dollar contract ... something always stops me from something cool like that...

I tried 3 times to be a cop here in vegas.. passed all the test with flying colors .. I was #3 out of 1500 testing at that time... passed everything .. psych evaluation , interviews, drug tests, background test.. everything.. then it came in front of the board.. and some reckless driving tickets I had at 19 ( nothing bad reckless 1 was lane change at 90mph and the other was wheelies on a motorcycle on backroads...

pissed me off cause they will hire you for a dui and I don't even drink... it's always a technicality that fucks me

gat damnit


oh well

I smoke Marlboro blue 72's the little short ones

This fucking legislation is bullshit!

I mean it makes about as much sense as having fireproof candles. :2 cents:

not here

they just started jan 1 2010

you've apparently had them out there since 2007

check this out:

Never heard of those.

This one is good!!!! funny as fuck all

I wish i could stop,that shit gonna kill me...

Guess what? You wil fight better if you can breathe.

Try Mexico :winkwink:

All I care about is how well they mix with the green stuff.

just smoke the green
But if you want cheaper cigs http://cheaperbutts.com

I just started back a week ago after stoping for two years.. God damn I missed them so much... thought it was just me but they leave a bad after taste :(

What's funny is that you REALLY think that "only" smoking a pack a day isn't hardcore...It's also funny that you're willing to inhale all of the chemicals in the cigarette that you're used to and you're now pissed because they changed the PAPER....

I used to smoke Newport 100's as recently as 2008 so I know what it's like to smoke......However, IT ISN'T WORTH IT!!!.......Take a look at ANYBODY who has smoked for a long period of time.....Do they look good! Hell no and you know it.

And I also don't understand why people love to smoke blunts when they can use rolling papers or pipes....It's STUPID to constantly smoke marijuana that is wrapped in a flavored tobacco paper.

Well, I always said with each time zone east you lose an hour and 5 years, so progress is being made. :upsidedow

Come on BVF, I would tend to believe that if you asked 100 smokers if 1 pack a day is considered hardcore 90% would say no.

My grandma is still alive and 90 years old. She has smoked since she was 25.
Her and my grandpa would buy Winstons by the case. (A case of cartons) and keep them in the chest freezer.

They each smoked 3 packs plus a day easy. If they were at the track or gambling even more.

That's hard core.

1 pack a day is not hard core, bad yes, but not hard core.

What's funny is her lungs are still fine. I hope I have more of her genes :helpme

However,

I know its bad for me and I do want to quit, but unfortunately I enjoy the hell out of it

probably as much as you enjoy fucking them nasy hood rats (which is probably more dangerous) :2 cents:

How about the next time I go out to shoot some content, I'm going to ask an avid crack smoker if smoking only a 20 rock a day is "hardcore"....And if it isn't, then WHAT IS HARDCORE?

I quit smoking cigarettes on Jan 1st :thumbsup

I was smoking when they made FSC mandatory here, and that shit sucked.

I quit June 1st 2008

I enjoyed smoking. The fear of not having cigarettes there anymore was the reason I kept smoking. I also knew it would kill me. Chantix helped me quit a bit. After a few weeks I no longer received any amount of pleasure when having a cigarette which in turn made me stop.

I have started buying the electronic cigs and they aren't really that bad. The e-cigs, coupled with toothpicks have cut my smoking down from 1.5 packs per day to 4 packs a week. And I am saving a shit ton. The e cigs are 70 bucks to start, and 10 bucks a pop for a "carton" worth of refillables. You may want to check into it if it sounds like something you'd be interested in...

goodgirl is using those electric ones. Been using them only for a little over two months now. No real ones at all.

After I read a book, I am fighting to quit since 4 days. Is hard as hell and I would smoke anything. Is hard hard hard!!!
I am using nicotine patches now but I miss a cig more than anything. Still smoking 3-7 cigs per day but I used to smoke 20-40... so I guess I made the first step.
I hate them because I love them!

Damn, I was expecting a picture of a bong or something.

Yes, yes, the interesting thing about them is that the "pure" liquified nicotine just kicks my ass, i don't want to smoke, because I feel like, well I did just smoke. And unlike the 4000 plus ingredients in cigs, the vaporizors, just has 3, the nicotine, the vapor coil and the sponge. Very cool, very clean. I don't smell like cigs anymore, my car loves me, i can smell shit now, lol. taste fast food again, and I am still smoking, but just doing it the vaporizor way. Don't get me wrong, I still smoke regular cigs, but from over a pack a day to 5-6 individual cigs a day is just fucking amazing to me. I am saving money, which is awesome. We will see where this goes.

I am trying to eventually quit as well. Although that means I also have to stop smoking weed too. BLAH!

smoke free right here

i quit 3 or 4 months ago, but i still enjoy the smell of smoke sometimes...

I quit last year, I don't miss those fucking things. :)

Thinking of going electric :)

It is not that new..
