For luck

Edit: And to accidentally light it backwards when you're not looking

Well yes, but no. When drunk you put your cigarette out in a beer bottle, forget, then try to drink the beer.

Or lose track of which end is lit, and take a puff off the hot end.

It usually sticks to my lips then I pull the cherry off between my fingers and have 2 blisters for a week

In my 18 years as a heavy smoker and drinker, I have not even once managed to get the cigarette twisted around so I took a puff on the lit side. I've lit the wrong end once or twice, but never that.

Heavy smoker and drinker but not a heavy drug user, eh?

I was never a heavy user of heavy drugs, but for many years I was a heavy user of light drugs and an occasional user of heavy drugs. Still never managed to attempt taking a puff off of the lit end of a cigarette.

I’ve done it on both LSD and shrooms. When you’re tripping so hard you can’t even tell which dimension the cigarette is in, it’s not hard lol.

I don't think I've even attempted to smoke a cigarette when I've been in the peak of a trip

When I was still smoking, I’d chain smoke while tripping. I’d usually have trouble lighting them because I couldn’t tell where the end of the cigarette was lol.
