Are you a spitter? - Page 2

ucla695 · 07-08-2009, 08:47 PM

Only when the need arises, but it's into a cup/can.

Jimbo14 · 07-08-2009, 08:56 PM

Only when I dont have a drink and when it is appropriate (eg, not infront of the boss)

Other, if it is a cigar I am enjoying then never. Some cigars make me spit...

BigCat · 07-08-2009, 09:07 PM

I wonder if those who spit also hold the cigar in their mouths a lot between puffs, so that they generate a lot of nicotine in their saliva? I tend to take my puff and take it out of my mouth. I'd say the end of my cigar only gets moist from saliva, not wet. I imagine if I sucked on it more I would have more of an urge to spit. As it is, I almost never spit.

Never.

I only spit if I'm sitting in my backyard!

Drinking something helps a lot!!!!

Guess that means I'm invited, Eric?

The smoking lamp is always lit for you Tom! Wait, that didn't sound good!

Occasionally not sure what it is. But sometimes I just gotta.

07-08-2009, 10:07 PM

Sometimes when doing yardwork and I drool toooo much, or when sitting by the flowers. Brain thinks water is good for them. Never when smoking an away smoke. I try to refrain from showing my redneck side.

Smoke on

WyGuy · 07-08-2009, 11:08 PM

Never.

Mr. Ed · 07-08-2009, 11:13 PM

Smoking tobacco does stimulate saliva.

So yes, usually less when I'm drinking something.

Mark · 07-08-2009, 11:20 PM

I have overzealous salivary glands, and this spitting is an unfortunate necessity.

pnoon · 07-08-2009, 11:22 PM

Nope. Never.

groogs · 07-08-2009, 11:54 PM

I do spit when I am sitting on the back porch alone, but when I am herfing I never do. I almost always have something to drink in both situations, so I have no idea why.

TanithT · 07-09-2009, 12:06 AM

No, I swallow.

Silound · 07-09-2009, 12:15 AM

When I first started years ago, yes I spit some here and there, not because I felt the need to, but because the extra nicotine bothered me if I swallowed.

After about a year of smoking, it stopped bothering me and I don't spit anymore unless I end up with chunks of foreign substances (hair, twine, rocks, you know the horror stories...) coming out of my cigar.
