Are you a spitter? - Page 3

shemp · 07-09-2009, 01:42 PM

yeah, it's a last fourth of a cigar thing, usually a char/tar/resin buildup in the stick causes me to salivate badly at the end, if i swallow it i usually get heartburn, i just have to remember to spit in appropriate places, i.e. not on the patio, or i will no longer be a married man.......only kidding honey...kinda

Voted OTHER

Saliva glands kick into overdrive with most NC's.

Hardly if ever happens with CC's.

Never. I did years ago, but figured out I was just smoking too fast. Once I made the effort to slow down, the feeling that I needed to spit disappeared.

I guess I don't do it always. When I am herfing indoors, I keep a water and a beer around, and I will drink whichever one mitigates the nicotine flavor of my saliva.

When I was spitting all over my yard last night, I managed to accidentally inhale while trying to smoke something with a bad draw. God dangit my chest hurts today.

Other... Generally only if I'm smoking outdoor. If I'm in a cigar shop or somewhere else I can smoke indoor, I don't feel the need to.

mcmoyer · 07-09-2009, 08:36 PM

Very rarely...usually when a piece of tobacco finds it's way into my mouth. I always have a glass of water with my cigars.

The Poet · 07-10-2009, 04:34 PM

I do not spit. Like some others here, I think it is a foul and disgusting habit, and not the necessity some of you seem to believe.

Yeah, I know it's a shock, but I do have a little couth - you should try it some time.

ZenSilk · 07-10-2009, 04:41 PM

Oh god you should see the porch....

I don't like the feeling of the nicotine in my stomach, and spitting helps me fight that.

SmokinApe · 07-10-2009, 06:12 PM

I don't deep throat the cigar so my slober factor is pretty low, that being said I don't spit... Question for the spitters, what do you do when smoking inside?

I carry a cup and spit into it. j/k

Usually I have a drink. I smoke way too many cigars to actually like drinking my own saliva. And I do not suck on the cigar like some folks.

I smoke with a couple of guys who spit. I love having company when I'm relaxing with a stick, but the constant sound of spitting takes something out of it for me.

I don't usually feel the need to, but I do have a strong desire to every now and then. I think it depends on how Nic'd up my mouth and the tip get gets.
It seems to only happen when I'm smoking outside w/ the gramps. He's constantly spitting which drives the grams nuts and I can't say it's the best of sights. The end of his cigars also end up looking like a drown rat though so how he smokes probably facilitates the spitting.

On a rare occasion I'll get a gob of tobacco juice when smoking my pipe. That will have me spitting and wincing.

So I guess I fall into the other category.
