i know this day is coming for me. and when it finally arrives, i'll be buying this strip and hanging it on my wall in tribute to the thousands who died for the cause of slightly altering the chemical composition of my brain in a way that made me feel an infinitesimal bit better. for a few minutes.

This is such a great strip, I would have expected it to be 4.5 or so.
Ray either talks about it in his blog or in Ray's Place before he does this. He explains the process and reasoning in detail and this comic, while it stands on its own, punctuates his statement. Things like this add a continuity that makes this little world a bit more believable.

Often a smoker will flip a cigarette upside-down in the pack, saving it for the post-coital smoke. That cigarette is referred to as "Lucky."

You tap a new pack from the bottom when you first open it. Usually cigarette will pop out a lot higher than the rest. He is then inverted and saved till last as the lucky cigarette.

And once you're down to your "lucky," you will inevitably light the filter end when you are drunk in a dark place. It is totally awesome when this happens. It is lucky.

Also, update box. I did the whole lucky cigarette thing and all that happened was that it lost a whole bunch of tobacco from the end which went all over everything in my bag. So really not all that lucky, I'd say.

How do you lose tobacco from pre-rolled cigarettes? They're packed tight as hell! Never buy tobacco and papers, unless you want to be covered in it.

Rolling your own cigs is heck of cheaper than buying pre-rolled packs.
Also if you invest in a cigarette rolling machine, you don't get it "all over you". Plus the money you save on cartons pays for it eventually.

Hey odei, I got here twelve minutes after you posted your comment. Curr-azy.
I love straights. I prefer them so much to roll-ups, and I just plain cannot roll despite trying over one times. But I'm starting university in a few weeks and will be a poor, poor, poor student. So basically I have to learn to roll and accept the fact that I'm going to have to be not smoking straights. Sigh.

I always carry a lucky myself, and I've always been in the belief that the lucky cigarette is the one that doesn't give you cancer.
The jury is still out when it comes to deciding whether a lucky Lucky Strike actually CURES cancer, or if the two lucky's cancel each other out and gives you Super-Cancer.

You: following what Onstad says, and listening to Morrissey
There is definitely something to be said for that, that is dedication, that is also knowing Morrissey well enough to have Kill Uncle. Unless you are lame and just listened to it somewhere on the internet.
