Think Smoking Is Cool? Heres What You Need to Know Before You Start

Yesterday, my buddy hit me up and said, “Hey, wanna try something cool?” And, well, I’m always up for something new. So, he pulls out this pack of cigarettes, and I’m like, “Whoa, really?” I’ve never smoked before, always seen it as something from the old movies, you know?

He lit one up for himself first, showing me how it’s done, how to hold it, how to take a puff. It looked kinda fancy, I gotta admit. Then he passed one to me. I just stared at it for a second. It felt weird, holding it between my fingers. But hey, when in Rome, right?

Getting Started

  • First Try: I coughed like a newbie, which I was. My friend was chuckling, “It takes a few tries, man.”
  • Second Puff: A bit smoother, but the taste? Not really my cup of tea. It’s kinda bitter, and the smell sticks to everything.
  • Feeling: Honestly, I didn’t feel much different. Maybe a little light-headed, but that’s about it.

We sat there for a while, him smoking, me trying not to look like I was hating every second of it. He was talking about how it “calms him down” and all that. I tried to see it from his perspective, but I just couldn’t get it.

After finishing, or rather, letting the cigarette burn out halfway, I felt kinda strange. It wasn’t a bad feeling, just different. My throat was a bit sore, and I could taste the smoke for hours after. It wasn’t a pleasant aftertaste, let me tell you.

Later that night, I thought about the whole experience. It wasn’t as glamorous as it looks in movies, not at all. The smell was strong, the taste was off, and the feeling wasn’t anything to write home about. I texted my friend, “Thanks for the experience, but I think I’ll pass on making it a regular thing.” He was cool about it, said, “Each to their own.”

So, yeah, smoking? Tried it, didn’t like it. Will I do it again? Probably not. But hey, at least now I can say I tried it, right? It’s one of those things you gotta experience to really understand, and now I get why some people are into it and why many aren’t. To each their own, as my friend said.
