So this puzzled me...

[Sonic04GT]

I met a buddy at the local Starbucks last week to finish up a school project. There just so happened to be a cigar shop next door so I recommended grabbing a couple sticks while we sat outside and worked. He smokes cigarettes but said he has smoked an occasional cigar before.

Anyway...About a 1/3 of the way through the stick, he put it down and lit up a cigarette. Then started smoking the cigar again after.

Needed his nicotine. Cigarettes deliver much more, and more quickly.

[BHalbrooks]

That's pretty weird haha

[JenksAnejo]

After being a cigarette smoker for a few years I'm sure he wanted to inhale something. I had the need to do that a few times as well.

[jsnake]

Sounds like a bad way to ruin a good cigar.

[icehog3]

Not strange if one is addicted to a large amount of nicotine from cigarettes all day.

[jluck]

Or purely habit.

I personally see no connection to enjoying cigars and smoking cigarettes.

I have to agree with this. I quit cigerettes after 25 or 30 years,once in awhile I'd get a cigar. As soon as I put the cigar out I would have to have a cig. to feel satisfied.

[Pseudosacred]

Think of a cigarette as a syringe and a cigar as an IV drip.

[tengel78]

I did this too. Quick delivery of nicotine even after a cigar was normal for me.

He shoulda just inhaled the stogie..:sh

[Emjaysmash]

Oh well. Different strokes, right? You still had a good time and got that work done, right? :tu

[CigarSquid]

To each is their own.

[Islayphile]

Understandable, especially if he was smoking a Gurkha

[fencefixer]

I used to do the exact same thing.. smoke an LFDDL and still need a cig right afterwards, like Tom said that's addiction talking. Not just better nicotine delivery but also the mental aspect of the smoking habit itself.

[shilala]

I chew snuff and smoke a cigar at the same time, sometimes. If the cigar is really good, I wouldn't think of it, but if it's droning on and I get bored with it, but don't want to chuck it, I'll throw in a dip.

On a more important note as a cigar smoker what where you doing drinking worlddominationforalotofbucks coffee.

And now on a serious note what kinda smoke did he have mild/medium with a semi decent kick by any chance.

[Sonic04GT]

I did not know that cigarettes contained a significant difference in nicotine. Makes a little more sense now.

You shouldn't be so fearful of coffee shops; Starbucks isn't exactly the East India Company.

[Sonic04GT]

I believe he was smoking an LFD. I wasn't drinking Starbucks, just using their outdoor table in a nice courtyard with fountain :tu

[Islayphile]

An LFD?

Downright heresy!

[kuzi16]

i had a friend that did that. annoyed the crap out of me.

A cigar probably has more nicotine but, most people don't inhale a cigar like one does a cigarette.

Cigarettes are designed to deliver a much larger amount of nicotine to the system than cigars do as well.

[SmokinApe]

I see people smoke a cigarette all the time while smoking cigars... to each their own...

Makes sense.

Cigarettes are really nothing more than a delivery device to get higher quantities of nicotine into your system at a quicker rate.

And God bless 'em, every one! :D

I used to smoke Camel non-filtered, so I understand.

[sevans105]

Several of my friends who are cigarette smokers also smoke cigars with me once in awhile. All of them light up shortly after smoking a cigar. Just part of the "need" I figured. When I asked them about it, they all say the same thing. Cigars taste good and are fun to smoke, but a cigarette delivers the nicotine.

[cjhalbrooks]

at least he didnt throw a dip in and still smoke the cigar at the same time

Lol....Cjhalbrooks....that is exactly what Shilala was talking about.

[Sam Leccia]
