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

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.

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

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

[–] [email protected] 18 points 5 days ago

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

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

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

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

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

this is the essence of good worldbuilding

Mouth for attention, gills for results

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

[–] festnt 2 points 4 days ago

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

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 days ago

That second one makes me feel very uncomfortable.

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

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 days ago

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

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 days ago

Straight up the cloaca.

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

[–] [email protected] 5 points 4 days ago

True that. The fish would vape.

I can hear the top one singing already
