Did anyone else ever notice that in cartoons, cigars are always a perfecto shape and the damn cigar band is at the wrong end? What is with that? For reference, see any Disney cartoon/film with cigars in it (eg. Pinocchio) or any cartoon with cigars (eg. Simpsons episode with Chester J. Lampwick, "The Day the Violence Died" where Chester sues Itchy & Scratchy's studio causing it to go out of business).

It also seems like 90% of them explode!....I've never had that happen 🙂

Heg, buddy...You got WAYYYYY TOO MUCH time on your hands...LOL...I believe that the perfecto shape is so popular in cartoons is because many years ago, that shape was the norm...I have no idea about the band though.....I can't believe I actually took the time to answer this question...Of course, THIS coming from a guy busy posting new Hubcap pics on the KCS CA site to celebrate the "First Annual Twelve Days of Hubcap" festival"...LOL

You know, Heg. That always bothered me about them old cartoons. I never mentioned it because people would think I'm a raving lunatic with too much time on my hands. Sure glad I'm not the one that brought it up!! LOL

I am pretty sure they were simply Acid Nasty's.
