A cigarette (from French: cigarette for little cigar) is a product manufactured out of cured and finely cut tobacco leaves, which are rolled or stuffed into a paper-wrapped cylinder (generally less than 120 mm in length and 10 mm in diameter). In recent years, the tax policies of governments has led to the practice of using not just the leaves, but the plant stem also. The stem is first crushed and cut to resemble the leaf before being merged or blended into the cut leaf.The cigarette is ignited at one end and allowed to smoulder for the purpose of inhalation of its smoke from the other (usually filtered) end, which is usually inserted in the mouth. They are sometimes smoked with a cigarette holder. The term cigarette, as commonly used, refers to a tobacco cigarette but can apply to similar devices containing other herbs, such as cannabis.
A cigarette is distinguished from a cigar by its smaller size (hence the name), use of processed leaf, and white paper wrapping; cigars are typically composed entirely of whole leaf tobacco. Cigarettes were largely unknown in the English-speaking world before the Crimean War, when British soldiers began emulating their Ottoman Turkish comrades, who resorted to rolling their tobacco with newsprint.

Something that I used to think made me cool when I was young and cared about what "cool" people thought, whoever those "cool" people are . Like when me and my best friend used to sneak behind my best friends garage in the 7th grade to smoke his dads camel unfiltereds. When I got a little older I thought it was dumb (as in you might as well take your money and burn it) and suicidal to boot.
