Smoking is one of the occasional vices indulged in by the Homestar Runner crew.

The Cheat's Smoking

Smoke 'em if ya got 'em

The Cheat is addicted to smoking. While he usually smokes cigarettes, he also smokes the occasional old-style pipe. He normally smokes Trophy Lights cigarettes, usually after a period of stress or fatigue. Though sometimes his friends will try to get him to stop smoking, their attempts are never too successful. The Trophy Lights have been seen in a locker in Coach Z's locker room, where The Cheat reportedly sleeps sometimes. The Cheat has sometimes been known to smoke the wrong end of the cigarette.
