No smoking on the golf course?!?!?!?!?! That would be enough to make me give up golf. That is the main reason I go out there! Well...also to drink. If they did away with drinking too, I am as good as gone!

You're just bitter that you are unable to get them.

For me also the fact that a monte #2 costs £12+ in the UK, and the fact that you need too much patience to age them properly.

1.)Figurados.....I can't stand them. == Why??? What’s wrong with the good ole shaped cigar??? Sounds like you’re very intolerant and anal! Ever watch the movie “Grumpy Old Men”?
2.) "Barbershop" cutters--I'd rather chew off the cap with my mouth. == And, you’ve been Paranoid about “germs” from what age? Ok. It’s kind of unsanitary. Real men don’t care!
3.)Thompson telemarketing calls. == Agree… actually ANY telemarketing!
4.)Candelas. == Do you hate all things different?
5.)Tunneling. == Agree… this is a blatant defect in a cigar.
6.)Getting cigars out of a new box without that ribbon thingy… == Man! You need counseling! Any how… I read somewhere in one of my old cigar books that the proper technique is to push down on the head and grab the foot of the cigar. Most experienced cigar smokers use the same tool they use to open the box… slip the tool (or knife) between the foot and the side of the box and it’s really easy! And this bothers you? Are you retarded?
7.)Churchill cigars that really have the dimensions of a corona. == The more you learn about sizes and labeling, the more you’ll find this is common throughout the cigar industry. Get over it.
8.) Trilogy cigars that aren't triangle-pressed. == This is a big problem??? I rarely even see this brand.
9) Arrogant people continuously posting worthless nonsense on cigar boards. == Like you?
10) A cigar smoker who would think a flavored cigars is worth taste testing. == Ok. I kind of agree…
11) A certain cigar smoker who has a ranked list of his favorite flavored cigars. == Sounds like you have a little vendetta.
12) Someone who puts a numbered ranking on a cigar that is not worth ranking. == But YOUR opinion is better than THEIR opinion, right? Hhhmmmmmmm.
13) A nameless person who smokes Thompson reject specials and tells me how fantastic they are. == There’s no accounting for taste!!! There again, YOUR opinion is better than THEIR opinion, right?
14) A Guy on a cigar board posting quotes from historical figures. == So, you think we should burn all the history books? “Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar!” Sigmund Freuid
15) Someone who recommends cigar sales and specials when they're much cheaper elsewhere. == Thank God you know EVERYTHING!
16) A person who sees a certain cigar site and just can't wait to share it with others, despite the fact that he has no clue if the site is truly worth scrutiny... == There again, YOUR opinion is better than THEIR opinion, right?

Hey! That was fun… I guess it’s ok to share my first instinct about other posts here, right? Well, I know you might get pissed off because I didn’t agree with your opinion. But, I decided to post it anyway! Even at the risk of offending you. You see, I’m not doing in a mean way… I’m kind of poking fun at the Archie Bunkers here. Or, do you NOT see that?

Anyway, I’m going to add my 2 cents worth of “Cigar things that annoy you” just in case someone wants to poke fun at me!

A. Cigar wrapper leaf that pop off when you’re smoking!
B. People (like little know-it-alls) who have some little tid bit of information wrong and share (or post) it with other cigar smokers.
C. People who take their opinion and share it with others as if it were a “fact” instead of their personal opinion!
D. People who don’t know what they are talking about and use their stupid logic to explain something the know nothing about and share (or post) it as if they have some kind of credible information. That's what we call "Wive's Tales" ... Don't GUESS! Read a book!
E. Here’s one that will confirm that I’m anal too! People who don’t know the difference between these common words:
1. Then & Than
2. Their, there & they’re
3. Hear & Here
4. Your & You’re
5. too & to
6. allot & a lot
F. The Web Site Bulletin Board guys who abbreviate EVERYTHING! Like they are COOL and speak to other cool cigar guys in their secret code talk! RASS, WOA, WOAM, SG, BTL, LGC, PSE, PGC, Hemi, Monte, Connie, etc.
G. ISOM! That’s REALLY stupid!!! IMHO, :smiley14: it’s the dumbest thing they’ve ever come up with!!! Secret code? Island South of Miami? For God’s sake! You can say CUBA! You think the Fed’s aren’t going to figure that out? Does that make you feel secure? Or, dose it make you feel COOL??? Every once in a while I smoke a cigar from CUBA!! C U B A ! ! ! CUBA!

There! Now you got my opinion! I think it’s kind of funny! Hope you guys can take a Joke because . . . I’m Stinky!

Does that make you feel secure? Or, dose it

Why is it does then dose?
slipping in the hot tub and getting a good cigar wet.

Realizing if I shop at 4 different local shops I'll get 4 different prices.

Why is does gas have a .25 range in my area? Dose it mean someone is trying to take advantage of us?

When was I being a smartass? About the lighter fluid thing? I wasn't intending to be a smartass...if I intended to be a smartass it would have been to say much, much more than I did...and you would have really known it was a smartass remark...when I want to be a smartass I can be a real smartass...:smiley4:...I was serious...they make your smokes taste like lighter fluid...butane is much better...nothing smart about it....

Whoa, whoa, whoa...did I miss something here or screw up unintentionally? I didn't resurrect this thread to bring up SFG75...I only did it because of Stinky of Stinky Ashtray fame, as his response to SFG75 was funny and I thought the newer newbies might get a kick out of it...if I poured salt in some wounds please believe me when I say it was completely by accident...to be honest I never read the complete thread...I only read the beginning and Stinky's answer to SFG75...I guess I should have read it all and I will go back and do so now to see what I missed...sorry, guys...
