These generic cigarettes suck.

All the places that sell my regular brand [Mavericks, used to be Harley-Davidsons] were closed when I got off work. I got these, thinking they’d be rough. Instead they’re like air. They have no taste, and they burn ridiculously fast. I want my Mavericks!

Actually, I want Bucks, but they vanished long ago.

A few things that should not be made in generic form, yet are:

Cigarettes
Tampons
Pregnancy Tests
Condoms
Give me Marlboros or give me death! [sub]And yes, I see the irony in that statement.[/sub]

I like Harleys when they first came out and every store was offering 2-for-1 deals on them. As soon as they crept up towards regular prices, though, I was back to Marlboros.

Marlboro’s have got me now. I have so many miles saved up that one day, in the not too distant future, I’ll have enough to buy a Marlboro™ brand artificial lung through their country store!

cough

Marlboros are $5 where I am (Los Angeles). Mavericks are $3, and so are these. I’m burning through them, but I did get my Mavericks!

A very Unabomber-looking guy was at the store when I was there. He was apparently asking for something they didn’t have. I couldn’t understand him, but the proprietor seemed to. I couldn’t tell if he was speaking a foreign language or just very garbled English. Poor sod.

I dunno… I buy generic tampons, and they work just fine.

They don’t for me, Daikona!

Generic ketchup is also bad. Ooh, Freudian association!

Do what I do.

Buy tobacco and roll em.

They taste just like the tobacco you put in. (imagine that) Unless you are buzzin and roll to loose or to tight.

OK, I know this will sound like a pot question, but it really isn’t. How exactly do you go about rolling your own cig? I tried once with some fancy tobacco I got for X-mas, and all I ended up with was a thin, spit covered piece of paper. Is this a mastered technique? Or is it so simple that I just overlooked it?

I guess I should have hung around with the stoners in school.:stuck_out_tongue:


Plato? Aristotle? Socrates? Morons!

Try using a dollar bill at first.

fold the bill in half, sprinkle the tobacco, spread it with your thumb using both thumbs, roll the mass ito cylinder, unfold the bill, put the paper, glue facing you in the back of the tobacco, press the bill back together and roll with your thumbs.

before the paper folds over be sure to lick it
