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’m guessing you’ve never seen a used tampon because that is not what they look like.
I am so confused.
If you had not dipped these in … food coloring, for some reason…?
… they, on their own, look fairly close to well rolled rollies.
A rollie is when you are broke and addicted to cigs, so you buy rolling papers and loose tobacco, and just roll up your own little cig, no filter.
… I… guess they kind of look like some kinds of onehitters I’ve seen? Early, silly e-cigs that were made to look like actual cigs?
Either way, I have no idea how these could be confused with tampons, they’re waay too small.
Also… cabaret? A vampire?
What do these intrinsically even have to do with cigarettes, or smoking?
… Are you stuffing them into like a 1920’s style stem type cigarette holder thing?
Are you going as a suffragette? A debutante?
I had those when I was a kid a few decades ago and they had the tip coloured in red. They were designed to look like fake cigarette, but in candy form, for kids. However because of anti tobacco movements, they renamed them to “candy sticks” and removed the red tip.
I think OP is trying to recreate the old ones.
