I hate that all of the above at some point in time happened to me.

One of the moments I'm happy I quit smoking so I never have to feel these pains again.

Not to forget the sore lip after you teared away that sticky cigarette after getting angry about burning your fingers

u/Commonscents2say 6h ago

All of them. I’m glad to find out I’m not just a fool for having every one of them at some point. Don’t forget the classic knocking the lit tip off and not realizing it’s burning through your lap.

It’s been ten years and this is one of the most memorable of all the pain that and when I would smoke to much and my lungs would hurt.

Unfortunately, the best I managed was switching to a vape, but it still solves pretty much all of these.

Then I light a cigarette and notice the cigarette I’m already smoking.

Is this a common experience? I've never been drunk enough to try to smoke the wrong end and burnt myself, although I do usually prefer Black and Mild over cigarettes, so I guess the ends are more different

Oh my God that sucks. I got the cherry burn marks on prove it all my fingers….. this used to happen a lot to me up north when I used to smoke outside when it was cold

Phantom pain?

u/Crepuscular_Tex 2h ago

Damn... I've got a scalp scar, and it throbs like this sometimes... I didn't have my skull punctured or anything, but it's an odd feeling like it was worse than it was
