If your rolling your own Drum Tobacco is GOAT, pre-rolled Marlboro Reds or Chesterfields.

I like luckies but roll is definitely the best if you don't mind the rolling itself.

I just quit on Tuesday (patches) but I rolled my own. Much cheaper than store bought and they don't have as horrible a taste.
I took the same path.
I hand roll, because cigarettes are very expensive in France (~7€ for 20) so I take Camel tobacco in Belgium and roll my own cigarettes, results: 16€ for 200 cigarettes. It's not helping to quit.

Don't smoke anymore (since 2009, I think?), but I used to enjoy filterless luckies, Camel Turkish Royals, Marlboro Blend 27s, and my personal favorite that was banned in my state later on, Djarum Blacks.

Started with Marlboro, then switched to Luckies about a year into smoking. Been rolling with that for about 5 years now. Can't believe I've been smoking for 6 years already... Anyway, anything else than a Lucky makes me feel as if I didn't really smoke, especially the cheaper brands leave me hungry for another one.
I'm planning to quit once I live on my own though. Should give me that extra push, since I will have to spend my money more wisely then.

Not a hipster or a smoker but when I tried it, I liked hand rolled better or in a pipe. Did not enjoy processed cigs at all

When I was still smoking (I quit over 2 years ago) I liked the American spirits in the yellow box.
Kool Kings. Used to prefer the Kool XL's, but they seem to have stopped making them. Both have nothing but menthol it tastes like.
Camel used to have an exotic blend that came in tins. At the time they were expensive, $5 a pack. They seemed to have quit making them, but there was a Coxktail Blend that was really good, probably the best cigarettes ever.
So prefer a nice mellow cigar every once in awhile. Don't have a preference on tobacco, but I always go for a mild tobacco. Can't stand Swishers though but might have a Black and Mild if it is offered.

Well that was very underwhelming. I expect venom to be spouted.
You do realise you just rang the bell, right?
When I was a teen and I smoked a little, I enjoyed Lucky Stirkes and Camels. I don't think I could smoke a pre-rolled now without puking, though.

These delicious motherfuckers.
They've become very hard to find in recent years, though. Pretty sure they still exist, though.

When I did smoke it was Newport pleasure all the way.

Stopped time ago, use to enjoy Camel.
Well sorry, but I just find some of the anti-tobacco zealots a fascinating case study. You would think smokers raped their mothers or something, with the way they react.

Went from Marlboro to roll ups, I smoke the yellow GV with silver rizla but the original Golden Virginia was decent too. Don't like Drum at all.
Don't smoke anymore, but I liked handrolling with tobacconists' cherry-flavoured tobacco in a liquorice rizla. Filthy, but sweet. Marlboro or Camel Lights in an emergency.
At parties I would smoke Sobranie cocktail cigarettes.
Damn. I know I'm healthier and all these days, but I miss smoking

the french know how to make cigarettes
I also liked Mild Seven before it was called Mevius
Marlboro is always a good standard i guess.
I stopped smoking regularly so its maybe one cig every three month or something.

I don't think there be as much anger and outrage if non-smokers who are exposed to smokers weren't at risk of cancer. Especially when it's smokers with children. If cancer only impacted those who actually smoke...you'd surely see far less anger and outrage. I mean when you have children die from lung cancer due to second hand smoke exposure from their parents? Then it is to be expected that people are pretty skittish about the subject...
It's not a subject I am personally passionate about, but I do understand the "logic" behind the anger.
No in that case I agree. I'm talking about people who don't like people smoking when they're outside or when a smoker is in their personal space like their car or home. You're not getting cancer from second hand smoke that you encounter outside. Also those that use the ridiculous argument about their health insurance rates rising.
Only thing I can think of it's hard for them to dissociate the two? Someone not exposing anyone else to their smoke deserves no anger or judgement. It's their own life...etc. But I would guess some just can't separate the two elements. That is how I guess I would explain why you see the reactions.
Yep, that's probably what it is but I just think that when you consider nicotine is almost as addicting as heroin it's no wonder people have a hard time quitting. I don't think that deserves scorn. It's a very real addiction.
