» Your first cigarette

sparkler based fun
I could post the story of my own first cigarette, but unfortunately its of the "behind a wall/bush, coughed a few times" variety...

so instead ill tell you the story of my mate's first time, it was a sunny afternoon, June last year, and as we smokers departed from school to the nearby park for a few cigs and a general natter, a non-smoking mate of mine piped up that he would like to accompany us on our peramble. A cruel and unusual thought entered my mind and assuring him that i would go roll him one, i went up to my room and opened my draw of random shite(TM), i selected a sparkler and carefully shaved off all the black powder and sprinkled it on the baccy, taking care to not put any at the tip.

As my mate reached for the lighter, the entire group watched carefully for a reaction, he took a few tentative tokes, which were enough to get to the powder lit, the cigarette proceeded to burst into white flames and then disappear in a haze of grey-black smoke but not before he bizarrely took another toke. Rather than coughing he spent the next five minutes sneezing ferociously and his snot went a tasteful grey colour.

Before you think im a complete bastard, i did apologise AND bought him an orangina which i feel went a long way to restoring the balance.
He recovered and is now a happy 5-a-day man.

*pop* phew, i didn't expect to last that long!
