here was the first red flag for me.
This mentality, in a nutshell, told me you area mooch who’s only concern is himself, and what you can get. For clarification, because i do this often with my 3yr old, “get” is the opposite of “give.” it helps her understand opposites, and enforces the individual meanings.
I absolutely don’t want gary to send me any more smokes, or anyone else for that matter. I went into this with a self fulfilling prophecy, that gary would fuck this up, and he did. From the pif itself, to this laundry list of arrogant responses.
Me being a “dick?” maybe. If that’s true, i can accept that, however i felt i owed it to the board to get this in the light, rather than side pms and keep it on the dl.
For discussion, here’s a picture of the pif received. Normally, i agree that this is a distasteful measure, but to cut down on the static here, i feel it is now necessary:
st luis rey ~ rothschilde
el mejor emerald ~ toro
man o’ war ~ corona
5 vegas gold ~ toro
gurkha symphony ~ robusto (i guess)
i sat down last night, for maybe 10 minutes and priced this out, solely using ci as the source. Out of the 5, the mow was the only one that could be considered as a candidate to meet the pifs requirements (and lemme guess, that was the gifted one.) a generous assessment of the others places them all at the lowest end of the $$$ range spectrum spelled out in the rules. No research was done on gary’s part to see what my favored vitolas, brands, lines, smoke origins etc. Basically, no effort was put into this pif.
And, to conclude, even the ziplock was open when i unpacked the box.
