    I'm not pissed in the slightest, and have actually been nice to this point.

    Indeed I think a persons social ability can be judged by their actions on the interweb. Where else is a person judged solely on what they say (type) and how they interact with others without the bias of class, looks, color, race, and all that other shit. I would venture to say that social skills are more fairly judged in this manner.

    Exactly, which is why I don't see why the question couldn't have been answered. It was, after all, an incredibly simple question.

    O.K., I'm gettin' older, and I can't keep track of shit like I used to, so remind me which incredibly simple question are we talking about here? The spelling one, or is it the which cigar to smoke one, or the where do I apologize one?

    1. Whats your age (very important at this point)?
    2. Whats your location (city/state is fine)?
    3. What are your hobbies (don't mention cigars)?
    4. What is so hard to understand that you need to ask 20 questions about the same thing?

    I am being serious about this and am refraining from hurting your feelings at this point. I am VERY interested in your response.

    1. 18 (I'm pretty sure someone here will bring up an issue of mental maturity, right?)

    2. Just outside Chicago, IL.

    3. I enjoy sports. I play hockey and lacrosse competitively and other sports in IM or rec leagues. I would also consider some aspects of academics to be a hobby (it depends on the subject), Marine Biology, for example, lead to involvement in the hobby of SW Tank and Reef keeping. Other things that I enjoy, but don't get to do as much, would be fishing and hunting, as well as photography.

    Edit: I forgot one hobby that I actually participate in everyday... Cars/Motorcycles/Engine work. Sorry Shelby, but it appears we share a hobby. I'm currently rebuilding an '82 Kawasaki 440.

    4. This is ironic, but...I don't know which question I asked 20 times. Please point it out. If you're addressing the where/how to apologize, i'll figure it out on my own. I was simply asking, because as I stated earlier, it appears that a fair amount of active users here are easily rubbed the wrong way, and I didn't want to do that again so I figured I would ask to see if there were any potential standards for that sort of thing. If that's not what you're addressing, then I'd be interested to know what you are and will respond at that point.

    I think, perhaps, it is not so important where you post it.

    Not only do you want us to tell you what cigars you'll like and dislike, but it seems you want us to write the right kind of apology for you so it will be accepted here. Why don't you just publish your password and we'll write your posts for you, too.

    That's not at all what I have been asking. I simply asked if it would be better written here or in a seperate thread. I don't see what's complicated about that...

    Oh, boy.

    Honest answer... nobody gives a shit. Make up your own mind.

    Ok. I did not know that nobody would give a shit. I didn't want to just charge ahead and post a new thread, so I asked.

    and you have to type some dipshit little smartass tail on the end of all your posts. Jesus, it's like I'm sittin' here playing cards with my brother's kids.

    Here, edited version, try not to get a headache.

    1. Apologize (try not to add any little "but"'s to the end of it.) Where you want to do this, no one gives a fuck.
    2. Read, read, read (the board, not your mom's Cosmo.)
    3. Go smoke some cigars and decide if it's worth pursuing.

    Easy, peazy, one two threesy.

    Or,

    1. Fuck off.

    Choice is yours

    If I read your original post, I don't remember what it said. It was long-winded though, so I don't intend to go back and read it again.

    Being 100% sincere in that statement.
