That God-awful magazine, Cigar Aficionado, has ruined the term. Hemingway defined aficionado in his novel The Sun Also Rises as a person who has great passion for something. I have a passion for cigars, whether they are $1.00 cigars or $15.00 cigars. I consider myself a cigar aficionado in the true sense of the word, not what its meaning has become.

I was just thinking aloud.
If a person loves prostitutes and frequents the same street location regularly to take in as much of the cheap hookers as he can 'cause he loves the variety of quantity over the high priced multi thousand dollar ones, he is not an aficionado?:r

DISCLAIMER
The aforementioned scenarios do not describe me at all so I therefore must bow out of the term.:r
