They suck, end of story. Next.

Like many, I got my hands on some various Nubs when they were introduced, of maybe the dozen I got intially, I think there are still 6-8 still in my cooler. While to me they are not disgusting, when they sit with different company in my trays, I always seem to go for the others. For me they just don't do the trick (and I do think NUBS are a trick), especially for the price. Many more sticks out there for the same range that are more complex and less of a gimick. I'm not a gimick kind of smoker. I like the tried and test, they must fit in somewhere. Welcome
Believe Dat!
I had picked up a sampler of nubs, guess I fell for the gimmick. They were ok, but I will second (or third?) what others have said about their price point. That being said, my wife thought I liked them and bought me more. They sit in my humidor and they seem to be what friends grab when we're having a smoke.
I agree with most of you. I do like the smoke (honestly), but the price is up there.
I actually bought the Habano 466's for $3.75 a stick from JoeCigar on Friday. My local cigar shop normally sells the 466's (specifically) at $7.00 a stick and that is unreal. The max I pay for any nub is around $4.75. Past that, I visit the other brands.
I'm definitely not an aficionado and that is why I am here. To learn.
Nub's are no value for the $$. The concept is ridiculous, imo.
If you think you have been flamed in this thread, I think you're gonna need a little thicker skin.
I hope you enjoy your stay, or not.
WOW, I felt a major ass-kicking coming on, but the kid recovered. Brillant !
Jamie,
I'm very proud of you ! You are becoming a much nicer to noobs member.

Im awake
The older I get ,the better I was
First, I come on this forum and get flogged for not posting a introduction. Well fuck you, there is no sticky stating to do this. Almost every thread had somebody getting flamed. I wasn't about to get into that. You want a fucking introduction? Make a fucking sticky note and say "Hey, do this." Don't blame the poor new guys that view your forum, see how you flame everybody, and then "expect the best" when they don't do what you expect them to do. Make rules, guidelines, and people will follow them.
Ashauler, go fuck yourself. Seriously. That last post MarineOne made was pure ignorance. Stereotypical fucking jarhead. Yea, I have affiliation with the military, and that is a very standard response type from that little section. So there, have some real fucking attitude.
After waiting nearly a week to have my account activated, I've clearly seen this place is not for me. It appears that their are several good people on board and a few asshats I'd rather not deal with.
Admin. Please delete this account. I will not be back.
How hard is it to come onto a forum and post an intro? It's generally the first thing you do on a forum, and it doesn't matter if its about cigars or where you get your mani-pedi. You asked about a Nub and got the typical "its a fad" response. Boo hoo, cry me a river.
There are rules posted, and its horribly obvious you either 1.) didn't look, or; 2.) didn't want to look for them. Since you can't figure out how to use a forum, here are the links:
A little advice...
Newbie Advice
From the word go, you've just proven you shouldn't belong on a forum much less the internet.
First off, people on here have lives OUTSIDE of the forum. You know, "IRL". Oh wait, I forgot you and the internet are like oil and water. I meant "in real life". Real people control the accounts on here to help prevent things like spam and to run interference against idiots like you. Unfortunately sometimes they get through. Case in point.
Second, I'm not going to be baited into the "stereotypical jarhead" thing. The Army does what it does, and does it well .... as do the Air Force, Navy, and Coast Guard. I'll still tease my swabbies, zoomies, doggies, and river rats because they're my brothers but I'll also be first in line to buy them a drink. That's the only thing typical about Marines.
Third, this trash you posted will live on indefinately and that makes it so much more funny.
9 posts in and he goes ape shit. That must be a new land speed record or something. Didn't even make it to double digits. Amazing.

Now that's the Ashauler we all know & love.
