Oblivious is pretty much a life style for me.

A Spanish aristocrat takes time out of his day to smoke a cigar, relax and enjoy it? Go figure. Not everyone won the sperm & egg lottery and can afforded the luxury of time.

My preference is to smoke in a relaxing environment as I enjoy the chance to savor a cigar and focus on the experience. Some time by the fire pit or on the trail with my dog is optimal, but those opportunities don't present themselves on a daily basis. However, like Tom said, I do smoke when I drive. I look forward to having a cigar on my 45 minute commute home each day. It gives me something to focus on besides the chunk of my life spent cooped up in a vehicle simply driving. I may not enjoy the cigar as much as I do in more relaxed environs, but it adds value to my day & I still enjoy it.

So while I would prefer the genteel lifestyle that would afford me two or more hours of cigar smoking relaxation time each day, I am an oblivious smoker largely by necessity.

agreed, that's why I love to see when the bulls get lose and go up into the stands, or gores the bull fighter.

I usually smoke on my deck, in the mornings when i'm off, and in the evening. I also like to smoke while watching movies at home.

Seems like I'm with the majority here - I smoke outside, front yard or back, and I'm usually sitting and watching the world go by...sometimes with a book, but more often a cup of coffee and some relative silence.

I don't smoke around folks where they might be annoyed.
That said, I'll smoke anywhere so long as I'm not violating directive #1 up there.
Smoking a cigar is always an event to me, but so is every single minute of my life. I don't waste a one.

I like relaxing and taking time with it. Watching the world go by my porch.
Sometimes scrolling through this forum.

I pretty much smoke in the car (have an ozone machine to tae out the smell), in the yard, and sometimes when out & about shopping. I do keep an eye out though, 'cause if I'm in too much if a public place, I will likely find objectors to my smoke . . . and, well, you know how it gets here in the Socialist Republic of California . . . !

amen!

Usually the only place I'm smoking is on the course, in the cigar shop, on the boat, or on my deck. So I doubt I'm annoying anyone. Other than my Fiance, that is........:-)

When I was in grad school I used to smoke while I walked to work. Now I only smoke when it is me time. So I guess I have changed.

If I am walking alone I can enjoy a cigar, but not as much when I am walking the dog. I tend to smoke fastest and do not enjoy it as much.

I used to try and smoke several cigars a day, pretty much if I had to do anything outside (yard work, walk, grilling etc.) However, I slowly realized that I was smoking just to smoke and not really enjoying the experience of having a cigar.

Lately, I've only been having a couple of cigars a week and have been really using that time to just sit back and relax.

Not oblivious, I usually plan my smoke and time :-)

Here in NYC, and a bunch of other municipalities around the country, it's already been outlawed. Thanks to Michael Bloomberg, smoking has been banned in all NYC parks, beaches, and pedestrian plazas since 2011. :-)

I Smoke Occasionally On The Golf Course, But Mostly In The Evening On My Patio To Relax & Wind Down After Work. I Never Smoke In The Car Or While Walking In The Neighborhood.:-)

I aspire not to annoy anybody, genuinely. But I live in a very densely populated area and I do all of my smoking outside. So, try as I might, someone is bound to catch a whiff of my cigar. :-)
