Cigars

[Ice]

How do you know you won't get cancer anyway?

I don't. However, it is a well established fact tobacco smoke increases the odds of developing cancer.

And anyhow, cigars are hardly dangerous; as long as you are smart enough not to inhale them or swallow your spit while smoking them, and you don't smoke them constantly, you won't get cancer. They also don't have all the added poisons and carcinogens that cigarettes do.

The part about not smoking them constantly is correct, but you still can get oral cancer from cigars.

You're one to talk, anyway -- marijuana smoke is LOADED with carcinogens and tar, and when you consider that the average marijuana smoker smokes about as much as the average cigar smoker, it's really not any healthier.

This isn't the backroom so I won't get into a full fledged debate with sources, but check up on... what you said has conflicting evidence. Besides, you don't have to smoke marijuana.

Hate to pop your balloon, but... well, actually, no, I don't. I just have no illusions about the intoxicants I use.

I smoke cigars too, Joe. I've probably smoked as many or more than you have. Like you said, I'm making it crystal clear that cigar smoking is unhealthy.
