A fake ciggy defeats that purpose doesn't it?

You'd think it would, but it doesn't.
Turns out - imo - the cool factor is internal in how you feel versus external in how you're perceived. Having a cigarette in your mouth feels cool, fake or not. Feeling cool leads you to believe you are cool. You can only live a life inside your own head, so once you've convinced yourself you are cool, you walk around like a cool mofo with a swagger.
Honestly, for $10 give it a shot. That pack lasts me a good 6 months. I've been doing this for a few years now. I love it.
I've actually converted a few people to fake smoking. The crazy part is as soon as you pop that in your mouth you'll 100% get what I'm talking about. Sometimes I'll just be sitting on the couch fake smoking. It makes you stop, contemplate and take some deep breaths. It's like the best and most harmless weird habit I've ever stumbled across.
AND you do feel cool.
Fake smoking in the car is also great, btw. Sometimes I'll even pretend ash on my wife's head or my kids' heads. Let's them know you're the top dog. You can even make them fake light it for you, which is great because they'll pretend you're being ridiculous, but eventually play along. That, too, works well to establish your dominance that they must play along with your delusion. It's all very healthy, you see.
