You weren't the first per se, you were just the first whipper-snapper I remember. Your sincerity
and desire to learn was the real reason you were such a popular target.

I agree with this. I have more fun with friends having a smoke and a beer on the deck. Even my duaghter joins me on occassion for a cigar. I do not mind giving a cigar to a friend that wants to try a cigar and I try to pick out a good one so they will have nie experience with a good cigar. But, there some that just bum a cigar and wouldn't know the difference between POS and good smoke, they just don't wnat to spend their money. I guess it all comes down to the person in front of you at the time.

A good non cigar smoking friend on facebook responds to one of my cigar announcements with "cough, cough."
I respond with something half witty and he responds with "why don't you send me one?"
I tell him I smoke full bodied cigars. If you're not a cigar smoker they will be too strong for you and you won't like it."
Implied "no" to his request.
If I did send him "one" he would put it in a drawer and a month from now smoke it. He'd "cough, cough" and throw it away later telling me it tasted like s**t.

Give a fellow a shitty cigar, and he may never smoke another. Give a fellow a great (or even good) cigar, and you may gain another BOTL for life!

Just saying.

You just need to take some less expensive sticks around with you for occasions like this. I wouldn't hand out a 1964 Padron to a non-expierenced smoker either. But something like an Oliva G would be fine, and they aren't overly expensive. They aren't dog turds, and something I would, and do, smoke myself.

Katmancross 01-29-2011 10:27 AM

Re: Rant: Cigar Bums
 
I worked at a construction company where everyone mooched from me. Pissed me off because no one ever reciprocated. So instead of giving them decent cigars, I started giving them dog turds. They didn't even know the difference.
My favorite is someone wants some sticks and then promises to bring me back a gift from Florida on their vacation. Guess what never arrives?
They can afford to go on vacation but not go to a cigar store or even offer to pay me.
That gets my short hairs up.
I finally told all them "Go fish."

I think that alot of people have no idea how much cigars cost. They see the gas station brands and assume that all cigars are similar to those. It shocks some people when they find out that some cigars cost *gasp* $5 a piece. I can't imagine what those who are not cigar smokers think when they see $20 or more cigars.

Here's the best part... a LOT of people and manufacturers sent him cigars but he wasn't happy with the quality, now he's trying to trade up to get ultra premium cigars. Also, Xikar sent him some cigars and cutters and he's trying to trade at least one of the cutters away. Here's his post on the other forum. MODS - If you want to know where this was posted PM me.

I got Thomas' address and sent him a nice 5 pack in a an old travel humidor with a little humidification disk in it. They were basically mild cigars.
I hope he enjoys them. Yes. I'm a hypocrite and S.O.B. Thank you for pointing that out from your perch of righteousness. I apologize to everyone for being such a jerk. I'm having a f*****g nervous breakdown here and I'm acting like an idiot and moron. My apologies. I won't post anything until I feel more like myself.

Anybody can be down on their luck. There are guys here that wish they had your problems, you wouldn't know it because they dont constantly complain.

But your attitude that really stinks. Even when you are apologizing, you can help but spit in somebody's face. My :2

OK. Here's the deal. all you guys that are down on your luck and can't afford cigars, send me a PM and explain your situation and I'd be happy to send you a few sticks of what I've received lately from clients.

No apology necessary.
Just wanted to point out that while it may be entertaining for most, for the admins it can mean having to intervene and or take action.

Why, you plan on sending a hand-written letter to each and every individual on the rolodex asking them for cigars? You bum you...;)

You really shouldn't re-gift. Just move forward

What Moe was trying to tell you is that every time you apologize you have to throw one finally jab. A true apology leaves it as 'I'm sorry' not 'I'm sorry but...'

I've on cigar boards for just four years. In just this short time I've seen scam after scam. I am not calling you a scammer but because of those with sob stories that preceded you you have an uphill battle when trying to defend mooching.

pnoon holds the rolodex. Just have to pm him with the member's name, and he'll give you the address, if that person has submitted his/her address to be added to the rolodex.

You need to PM Peter (pnoon) about gaining access.
