Should move from cigarettes to smoking cigars from now on

So I know I’m going to keep smoking for 5 more years at least. But thinking since I’ve already been a cigarette smoker for 5 years, maybe time to change up and start buying Cigars from now on? What do you think? You think cigars may make me smoke less and not worry about nicotine so much?

No, quit the cigs, cigars are the right call 10
Yes, Stick with cigs for 5 more years 3

    Why did you quit smoking in the 1st place.

    Why do you want to restart?

    The effects are essentially the same between cigarettes and cigars. Only the image is potentially different.

      OP never quit smoking. Read again. They said they know they're going to smoke for another 5 years at least. That's not the same as quitting.

    If we were applying literary symbolism, smoking a cigar would usually mean that you have a huge monster cock

      Obviously if they are on here asking to switch to cigars, not smoking all together is clearly not on the priority list.

    Well how you smoke cigars are different than cigarettes. You dont "inhale" cigars. You suck in the smoke and then blow it out when you are done savoring the smoke. Still bad for your lungs because you are still within face distance of a Tabacco fire.

    I think a cigar is the perfect way to not look like a McDonald's cashier on their 4th smoke break of the day. Of course you got to savor it but hey you can always restart it if you didnt finish

    • I've smoked (cheap) cigars wrong then

      But what's the point if you don't inhale? I mean I smoke for the hit, for the burn. Maybe not knowing that is the right way didn't help, but I don't remember anything special about holding it in my mouth

    I started rolling my own cigarettes recently. It’s actually quite nice. It doesn’t smell nearly as bad and it’s much cheaper. But mostly bc there’s no filter so you’re not getting all the chemicals in the filter and bc the filter isn’t filtering out most of the nicotine, you’ll smoke less.

    It’s also kind of fun.

      Add liquor to that unfiltered cigarette smoke and you're on a shortcut to a blackout.

        Why would I blackout bc of a cigarette? I’ve been smoking 13 years.

    Cigars aren’t look a bit to stupid to smoke in public, unless you’re in the mafia.

      Bit more high class than smoking cigarettes though.

    Do both. Cigars are nice as fuck. I grow my own tobacco and roll my own. Can't get more organic than that!

    Idk where you're from, but cigars are really expensive in Britain though. However; if you go abroad then you can get more cigars back through duty free.

    Cigars are definitely not as harmful. Smoking cigs is bad, they will ruin you. Casually sometimes cigars is fine.

  • Cigars I think are more harmful because you're taking in more smoke for the same amount of breath

    I've smoked cigarettes, cigars, and vape, and cigarettes usually hit the best but chain smoking is harmful and expensive. Cigars are cheap and can last, but they don't hit that well at all. Vaping is a nice middle ground.

    Cigars might be better for like the last year or two, a slight hit with enough nicotine to ween yourself. I also find it's easier to stop smoking if you make yourself smoke something you don't like. You could try cigarettes you would normally avoid

      • I was talking about those 99 cent cigarellos or whatever

        You don't swallow the smoke like cigarettes or weed?
