Not around other people, but I don't blow traditional rings either. What I do is make the oh face, then tap my cheek with my index fingr. Each time you tap it a ring the size of a quarter will come out. Pretty neat once you get good at it

I cannot, but I understand that it takes a great deal of tongue dexterity. How does one go about achieving that amount of tongue skillz? :r

voted no since it never occurred to me until now. But I'm certainly going to give it a try this weekend!

Never tried the tapping technique.

The best way I can describe how to do it is just say the letter "O" a bunch of times and make your mouth into the shape of when you say "O" and blow some air out. Basically, pucker up your lips pretty tightly, but leave a small hole for the smoke to escape.

As far as the double rings go, that's beyond me.:tu

I tried to blow a smoke ring once and inhaled the smoke and almost vomited.

Only accidently. I never seem to remember how I did it either.

Used to be able to, back when I smoked cigarettes and pipes years ago. Apparently, I have lost the ability... :(

I used to do this all the time when I smoked cigarettes, but not so much anymore. Probably because I'm usually smoking outside.

Funny story:
Way back, when I smoked only cigs, I was showing off to my little neice, blowing smoke rings. She was maybe 9 or 10 years old. She was really impressed. Then she asked me "can you make triangles too?":r

The same way you would blow a single, seriously.

To me if I can't get a good ring then the cigar is drawing too tight.

Still don't mess around with smoke that much. Never really tried though :ss

Nope, but not for lack of trying.

Gotta try that! :ss


I blow smoke rings quite a bit, it's something to do I guess and I almost doing it without thinking about it most time.

Fairly easy for me, a favorite uncle of mine who taught me how to smoke cigars, pipes, and chew tobacco at the age of 14, (me not him). It's just a combination of the "O" and the tongue for me. To impress the kids when they are outside blowing bubbles, I'll take a good draw and put the smoke in the bubble and watch it puff out when the bubble bursts.
