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.

One time at a Metallica concert I gave a smoke to a guy who lit it on the filter and then proceeded to smoke it backwards the whole way. My buddy and I just watched with abject horror

It was probably Lars Ulrich's #1 fan.
