    I expected to see words like “stogie”, “stick”, “Cuban” and others. I thought that maybe it might have been a temporary database glitch on thesaurus.com, so I Googled for other online thesauri. Good luck trying to find “cigar”, “cigarette” or “stogie” in any online thesaurus!
    Just out of curiousity what kind of dumbass needs a thesaurus to find synonym for cigar anyway? Seems like anyone who smokes them would learn these relatively fast and anyone who doesn't and wants to know can also find them fairly fast. Doesn't really seem like a super serious issue to me.

    Now the whole Roswell, Area 51, and JFK assassination coverups? Those are different stories all togather.

    Yeah really now, "stick" would be a slang sounding term not really a straight out synonym. I have also heard Stogie be used as either slang for cigar or meaning a cheaper cigar which wouldn't be a synonym.

    Heck does anyone have a paper thesaurus that actually has cigar in it?
