From a skim of wikipedia, it looks like most fish "breath" in through the mouth and out through the gills, so the cigarette would probably be in the mouth

Only one of these looks cool

Only one allows you to smoke double the amount of cigarettes compared to conventional methods

this is the essence of good worldbuilding

The guill way would be like smoking a cigarette with your nose.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 day ago

im pretty sure the water goes into the mouth and out of the guills, so a cigarette on the guills would be like putting it in your nose while breathing in only through the mouth and breathing out only through the nose

I prefer my fish smoking like this

That's the product, OP's pic is the process

I’d like a pound of the Menthol flavored smoked Floun-dah.

that first fish could probably convince me to do just about anything..

I mean, we have both mouths and noses, but I've never seen anyone stick a cig in their nostrils lol

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Me and my friends definitely did that as teenagers. It's not pleasant.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 day ago

I've never actually smoked one so I'm definitely not the best source! I know what its like breathing it secondhand - I can't imagine what it would smell like if you smoked it through your nose haha

[–] [email protected] 18 points 2 days ago

Mouth. Water goes in the mouth, across some cool counterflowing blood veins, and exits the gills.

I don't know, but they'll look cooler either way. I look great when I'm smoking a cigar behind my cheek.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago

aw man dont even get me started on me smoking through my lungs. so cool.

[–] BeMoreCareful 4 points 1 day ago

That second one makes me feel very uncomfortable.

Now, if a fish were to try a caffeine enema...

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 day ago

Emm, I can see Starbucks marketing their non-GMO, caffeine infused smoked salmon bagel sandwiches. Now with wider a-holes.

Straight up the cloaca.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 day ago

Mouth for attention, gills for results

It would be impossible to smoke a cigarette underwater, so neither.

[–] marcos 5 points 1 day ago

True that. The fish would vape.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago

I can hear the top one singing already
