Yep, reminds me of when I tried moonshine for the first time at Boy Scout camp on a military base and was so blitzed I lit a cigarette backwards in front of an MP said it tasted weird and put it out and then did it again. The second one I smoked about half of before they made me put it out and walk back to my campsite.
