Look At All This Tar!!!!

So I recently bought the Hunter S. Thompson cigarette holder/ tar catcher and I smoked about 3 cigarettes in it and after just one I was surprised to see how much fucking tar accumulated on the sides of the tar catcher. I was pretty shocked that all that shit was going inside my lungs and staining my teeth. I couldn't capture the entirety of the tar but it looks a lot thicker and more accumulated in person than in this pic. I didn't think it was this bad. I can only imagine how fucked a life long smokers lungs look like after having smoked thousands of cigs their entire life.

If you think those filters are somehow making a cigarette safe, you're wrong, extremely wrong. The only "safe cigarette" is one that isn't lit. You're still getting plenty of tar and bullshit in your lungs from smoking.
Quit now or regret it later. Countless people start off smoking socially or under certain circumstances, most progress from that to pack a day smokers pretty quickly. There are a handful out there who manage to limit it to that, but the odds are not in your favor and every single person thought they'd be able to just control it.
My brother abhorred smoking. Was a topic of conflict through most of our lives together, he wanted me to quit and I wouldn't. Then for whatever reason, he started smoking part of a cig occasionally when getting high, and progressed to full ones. Then it was basically every other time or a pack a week. It took him a year to progress to full blown pack a day habits and he absolutely despised beforehand.
They have a way of latching onto you and before you know it, you're hopelessly addicted and pissed off because you can't quit.
For the love all fuck, take my advice, stop now goddamnit. You actually stand a chance at this point of just cutting it out completely. You keep playing with fire and a few years later you're going to WISH you had heeded this advice.

I think the thoughts they develop from seeing the shit before their eyes, not unlike the OP, is what would make it a great gift, not the shitty attempt at making an unhealthy habit healthier.
If not just let em' go, at least they'll die knowing.

Well I wasn't addressing your idea of giving them as a gift, but I disagree. I see it having the exact opposite of effect. They see all that build up and think "look at all the harmful shit it's removing, these things are amazing, now I can smoke and not worry about my health". People are easily lulled into a false sense of security.

Yeah I highly doubt I'm going to touch another cigarette after reading this and seeing all the shit that got caught in the filter. To be honest up until now right after I smoked this last cig I smoked a few minutes ago I felt a strange feeling I never felt before while smoking a cig. After I finished I felt a strange compulsive craving to smoke another one. Never got that before even after smoking like 10 cigs in a row.
I feel the craving might get a hold of me soon so I guess this is the end of the road for me and the smokes.
Also off topic does anyone know if I can smoke joints with this cig holder? Does the THC get trapped in it and will it be a waste?

I can only base it on packing hollowed out cigarettes with weed, and yes, it will diminish the high. We used to make stealth joints that looked exactly like cigarettes, including the filter and the high was practically fucking destroyed. We'd be lucky to catch a strong buzz from something that should have us pretty damn high.
Of course this was with schwagg, so it may not be as noticeable or extreme with top shelf bud. I'd never waste high quality bud by stuffing it in a cigarette.

I know. I was addressing yours.
I agree, people are lulled into a false sense of security, but I also tend to get caught up thinking others share the same train of thought as myself. Call it self-centred, logical, narrow-minded, intelligent(?) whatever, doesn't matter, point is that I struggle to come to grips with the amount retardation that can exist in some people, and how this filter could be used to justify the habit.

I've been able to limit it -- I smoke on average anywhere from 3 to 5 cigarettes a day, aside from the one day per week where I allow myself to get fucked up on. Then it's like fucking 15 in one night. So I'm basically at roughly 2 packs per 7 days. I've been on this cycle for several years now.
Doesn't make me feel any better, though. Nor should it. Bottom line is, I'm still putting pointless garbage and poison into my lungs.
I used to not be serious about quitting...really ever. But as the years go by, I'm getting pretty serious about phasing this shit out completely.

I can't smoke when I trip. It scares me. I think I have PTSD from one trip a long time ago and I can't shake it and I get terrified. I thought I lit a cigarette and my face was on fire and all sorts of other shit and couldn't find which end was the filter. There's more but it's still shitty to think about. I just can't anymore & it's 15 years later. Blegh.

You got that intense craving because you're trying to tell yourself its your last one and that you'll quit. So basically, you're already getting addicted and your mind is trying to keep you from stopping.

those things are a pain to clean out. i got a 10 pack and used them up in 2 days, said fuck it to cleaning them and threw em out
they are nice if you hold your cig in your mouth alot though, keeps the tip of the cigarette just far enough away so you dont breath in the smoke coming off the ember
