I’m going to a cabaret show tonight and I wanted to get in costume. I tried to make some fake cigarettes but now I’m worried I’ll these will make me look like a perverted vampire. What’s the consensus team?

    I like that these candy sticks commonly used to be sold as candy cigarettes, only for people to be outraged and so the companies changed them to generic “sticks,” just for you to go and dip the tip in red (they used to do the same, add more yellow to your red) reinventing candy cigarettes.

    Ceci n’est pas une cigarette.

    Edit: Hey they still make them!

      Well. Damn. I’ve got two of those packs in my curio cabinet, thought they were modern remakes. Nope. They clearly say “candy”, “cigarette” isn’t on the package and there are no red tips.

      Think how hilariously awful it was that we kids used to “smoke” those things! Fuck it, eating one of my packs now.
