well,partyboy...you're wrong...we do have a brotherhood here...many of us have herfed together...when i go to NYC to visit my son,i'll herf with bkcloud,mac and a few others who post on other cigar bb's that i frequent...ggeise,coventrycat and i talk on a regular basis and plan on herfing together....there are many other instances....

anything else you want to pontificate on??.....

[cigarsarge]

Don't degrade those brotherhoods by calling this one.

Now you have struck a nerve with me.

In my line of work I know full well what a brotherhood is. I work with a bunch of guys I rely on for my life every day.

Granted the relationships on this board is not as strong as this but I have true brothers here. I have never met or spoke in person to many of them but we have an understanding. Something you obviously you don't have.

In our own way we rely on each other. We watch each other's backs. We speak a common language. We confide in each other. I have true friends here.

I think that is what a brotherhood is about.

I in no way believe this brotherhood degrades my other brotherhood. In fact this brotherhood offers me some degree of escape from the reality of my job. For that I am thankful.

By the way...I think you are an ASSHAT.

You best talk about things you know about...

[slcraiders]

I am not a firefighter nor policeman. As a member of this board I feel a true brotherhood. I have been accepted and put in my place in the same day; sometimes in the same sentence. Yes, this is an escape for me. Yet, the friendships I have forged here in a few short months over one common bond (cigars) surpass some of those I have had for years.

Guys like BPP,GG, Basil, Sarge, Hefty, K7, CC, DG, BK, Godfather, Drew, Hex, Kenyth, Cameron Couch, Propheitic Joe, 1101 and anyone else I may have forgotten are all men of great character. So are other BOTLs on different boards They will provide brutal honesty when needed, forgive you (if earned), and create an atmosphere of daily dialogue not to be found anywhere else. These people will give the shirts off of their backs to lend a hand.

I have had personal conversations with some of these gentleman that would rival anything a therapist could provide. A couple of these BOTLs I have had the pleasure to speak with over the phone, and a few more with phone numbers offered up in the event I need to talk. I hope to develop my relationship with each and every one of them further.

Based on your writings here, I highly doubt you would get along with most of us. Quit fooling yourself and move on to something more worthwhile for all. Thanks for stopping by.

[Lopaka]

Crazy to say this, but I probably would get along with most of you in person. And I know what a brotherhood means. I'm sorry to say this, but how can you say being on a message board is a brotherhood? Policemen and firemen have brotherhoods. Being a part of a sports team is being in a brotherhood. Don't degrade those brotherhoods by calling this one.

PartagasGuy,

This is why you don't understand us and never will. We all share a brotherhood. We watch each others back on this board. We would herf with each other in a minute. Many of us have met each other and have shared a nice smoke or two. Many of us chat on the phone and when we chat it's like talking to an old friend. You hate putting the phone down.

I'm a member of a brotherhood, those of us that wear the uniform. Those of us that put our lives on the line proudly without second thought and I'm very proud of those who are former, retired, or current members of that brotherhood. Many of us here are members of that same brotherhood. And we are not offended when others here say that BOTL’s are part of a brotherhood. You are offended with that thought, then don’t post here again. You are not wanted here nor do we care for your opinion.

[heftysmokes]

I think that is what a brotherhood is about.

Sarge, you hit it exactly on the head. Lopaka and SLC are dead-on as well.

The guys who spend a bit of their day on this board started out with a common interest, but in most cases it has become a lot more than a discussion about smokes. People --myself included-- have joyously announced births, unloaded about a job loss, grieved the death of a loved one...all on a silly internet website.

I'm proud to call these guys my friends.

And maybe my pathetic little degree from a small, inexpensive college in Montana isn't as impressive as yours, but I know most of us are a lot smarter than you, because we get it...

and you, obviously, do not.

[prophetic_joe]

Well after reading this thread, I have just a few things to say. I have no idea how someone who claims to have such a high intellegence can lack so much in the area of common sense. Partjackassallstupid, you really have no idea what a message board is about and no clue what this hobby really means. This place is a home and a family to most of the guys here. We look out for one another, keep eachother in check and help eachother whenever we can. It's really a shame that you will never get it, you are just going to miss out on some of the greatest and most generous guys around. The real sad part is that if you had been less of a cocksmoke you would have found out, like many do, how good of a place this is.

You came here to sell something that you recieved for free and that for one shows no class, you are informed of your mistake in a much nicer way than I have seen others informed and you turn into a little bitch. Grow the fuck up jackass, it may be the internet but that shit doesn't excuse you from using common curteousy.

In short, go swallow a knife I hate you. Oh look at that now I forgot courteousy.
Please go swallow a knife, I hate you.

[PartagasGuy]

Sarge...Thank You for putting it the way you did. How you explained things in your last post put something into perspective for me that I didn't see this past week of coming to this site and posting. With that said, again I say thanks.

Now, please explain to me what's up with all the name-calling on this board? Is there a tradition behind this? For instance, I was referred to as "Partjackassallstupid" and "Asshat". What the hell is that all about? I left that train of thought back in the third grade. Maybe all the namecalling made me not look at the reality and seriousness of this site, but instead view it as a joke. Maybe if most of you would keep the elementary school humor in your kids rooms and drop the retarded namecalling, outsiders (including myself) would take every single one of you as well as this message board much more seriously.

Until Sarge made a sincere and honest attempt at opening up my eyes, I viewed this message board and its members as a joke. As of right now, my opinion couldn't be any further from that.

[PartagasGuy]

Hey prophetic_joe...please excuse me for not using common courtesy while on this message board. What got into you? "Go swallow a knife I hate you" is the most outstanding thing I've heard all day! If you don't mind, I'm going to use that one on my boss tomorrow.

And while I'm at it, let me gargle gasoline too. Then, I'll wipe my ass with sandpaper. Hell, I might as well take a torch and weld my entire asshole shut so I can blow up from not taking a shit.

I'll even videotape it and send it to you via mp3. Would that make you feel better?

[PartagasGuy]

Lopaka...God bless You and our entire USAF! Thanks too.

[Shagaroo]

Nah, you would sufficate from cutting off the oxygen before you exploded.

Explain the insults, comes from the third grade? I don't want to waste my time here quoting all the insults you've thrown out there Pee-guy, but you just took a big hypocritical dump and we don't really care for that kind of crap.

You screwed up, you never apologized (hollow words mean nothing), and you continue to be an ass to be people who have earned their stripes here. So, that's why you're an ass hat. Heck, the only real apology you offered was to Hex, and you only did that because you didn't want to be insta-banned and could then keep hurling insults at some of our most respected members. It's not that we can't take the insults, it's that we can't take the audacity. So, either go quietly into the sunset, apologize, or stick around and we'll just continue you to hound you until you get it or quit wasting our time and yours.

"party"guy.......walk out the door...take a few minutes to think.....then,either walk away or walk back in the door and see what happens....right now...you still don't get it......

[Drake]

I love it!

First of all NH, my undergrad is from a private liberal arts university in Ohio...which was over $22k a year when I graduated 14 years ago. I understand the price of a good education.

and look how you turned out.

And of course the amount you paid for your education has a direct impact on how successful you are

[PartagasGuy]

Hey Drew...I see you're from Alberta.

Have you ever heard of Zanzibar? Are there any in Alberta? That's why my e-mail address is what it is. It's a strip club up in Winnipeg where I used to live. I had my first real cuban there. I just figured you'd have heard of it because there's not much else to do in your beautiful country besides watch grown men play hockey and watch grown women strip! Maybe your sister? ahaha

Take a fucking joke, you fucking butthead.

Hmmmm - Let me put this post through Basil's Asshat Translator:

Sarge, thanks - I think I may understand, but probably not.... blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.....

Namecalling assholes - FUCK YOU!!! blah, blah, blah, blah, blah....

I might stick around if you treat me with the respect I deserve, yet not earned... blah, blah, blah, blah, blah....

I'm still trying to decide if you people are worthy of my presence.... blah, blah, blah, blah, blah....

Thanks, Basil for your translator program. Helps me to get through all of the BS of these asshats posts!!

Take a walk, Pee-Boy - you don't have what it takes to be a part of this board...

yo partygas,

stop tooling around. own up or shut up. and another thing - it's one thing to joke on the person - completely different to talk about their families - off limits and bad form.

so go yourself.

i see you're online, so awaiting dumbass response.

[PartagasGuy]

One last thing...I can take any kind of shit from guys who are from NYC, guys from Texas and even guys like prophetic_joe from bum-fuck Iowa.

But I'll be God-damn if I have to listen to some canuck that otherwise would be living in a third-world country if it wasn't for the US. Why don't you and your countrymen do something to make this world a better place before you start opening up your fucking pie-hole. Your country hasn't done a fucking thing for the world we live in (besides Celine Dion). So until you or your military makes a difference in this horrible world we live in today, then shut the fuck up. I've lived there and it's beautiful...but you're a bunch of pussies. Go hide behind Great Britain...no wait, at least your parent country has balls enough to make this world a better place.

And don't ever boo our national anthem ever again, you piece of shit.

Basil's translator:

Hey, Drew - FUCK YOU!!! Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah...

I like to hang out at nasty, smelly strip clubs - the nastier the better - and to make me feel REAL special I like to tell others that I saw their sister working as a stripper. It's a self-esteem issue, I know - but it sure makes me feel good!!! blah, blah, blah, blah, blah...

I like counterfeit Cuban cigars, because I have no idea what the difference is. Quite frankly, it doesn't really matter because I could care less as long as it stays lit! After all - a cigar is a cigar, right? blah, blah, blah, blah, blah...

...and I still don't want to be a part of any community except as a pariah. Getting close to individuals who are stand up is WAY too scary for me. I would rather insult, flame, be obnoxious and act like an ass. It's more in keeping with my personality... blah, blah, blah, blah, blah....

WOW!!! What a message in that post!!!

Get a life you dumb ignorant prick. you're the kind of dickwad that gives your country a bad fucking name around the world and I feel fucking sorry for the great people on this board that have to be saddled with your stereotype when they travel. Learn some history asswad.



Gee, this is fun
