Smoking IS cool.

Brilliant description of how cool smoking is from woops' book:

"It was a very good cigarette; it lit first time, the faintly striped paper feeling good to the touch. The imitation cork of the filter seemed arranged in a particularly pleasing pattern, the ash gathered in order and fell neatly away. It tasted a lot better than the previous five that day - better than the last hundred, really. I couldn't smell it, because the smoke seemed to rush to the fan and out into the atmosphere. Six drags, now seven. I blew a ring, then I exhaled and inhaled through my nose, all the tricks... "

Asked for some rolling tobacco and the shop guy was like "which one" and I said "I'm not sure, what have you got?" and then he said "do you want the cheapest?".

I said "maybe not, maybe the best" and then the shop lass piped up and said "the best is golden Virginia but its 17 pounds" and there was a sharp intake of breath all round.

She then persuaded me to go for the new players, "easier to roll, comes with a green rizla" and the first one has gone down alright

i bought a pack of 20 b&h sky blue yesterday.
i didn't realise how ridiculous it is now when you go to buy a pack of fags. there is no branding apart from the disgusting disease images and some of them, from a distance, look quite abstract. almost like GAN Cthulu images or something.
how the fuck have we got to this.

I smoke these ones called Karelia a lot, not sure you lot can get em, the light ones are long and thin and so light you can barely taste them - any time a proper smoker blaggs one off me they throw it back in my face complaining that it's not real. But for me they are perfect, something to do with your hands and face but almost no nicotine or owt. Think they are E4.60 for a pack of twenty.

Like Francis Bacon saying he bought a book on diseases of the mouth because the colours were beautiful.

They sound alright actually I might give them a go, but you probably can't get them here. Sort of sounds like low percentage booze.

i asked a guy walking past me on the way to a pub if i could have a rollie and he said "sorry, it's a spliff mate" so i said no worries, walked on. then he called me back and pulled out a lovely long and slender B&H Blue from his box and said "do you wnat one of these" and i was so happy. I went off to a deserted car park to enjoy smoking it but then realise di had no lighter, so i asked a few more people but they all didn't have alighter.

So I went to the pub and after ordering my pint (Mallinsons) I asked the barman if he had a lighter or matches and he gave me one of those kirchen lighter things.

And I went out to the beer garden which was heated and smoked my fag and drank my pint while these nearby lads talked about the correct ageing times for lager and it was magical.
