You know what really drives me nuts?
You know what really drives me nuts? When I'm enjoying a terrific cigar, and I overhear one cigarette smoker remark to another cigarette smoker, 'I hate the stink of those things."
As a cigar smoker, what really drives you nuts?

Re: You know what really drives me nuts?
I smoked cigarettes for 30 years, I quit 18 months ago, even though I smoke 2 or 3 cigars a day some days, I can STILL smell a cigarette 100 yards away and it stinks to me, even so I wouldn't never say anything about it, some people are just douches.
Nothing grinds my gears, I'm just a happy go lucky kind of guy. |

Re: You know what really drives me nuts?
I really have no interest in seeing my boys this year, I went two years ago, but with the World Cup none of their started will play. And yes I agree nothing could be worse than this year!

Re: You know what really drives me nuts?
The World Cup Final is July 13th. The first game of the Guinness International Champions Cup is July 24th. One should have no bearing on the other.
There's gonna be a whole lot of fútbol gettin' watched this summer.

I admit that when I am smoking a cigar, I am in a little cocoon of happiness that encircles those cigar smokers around me. It is really hard for me to notice what's going on outside of the herf group. Not deliberate, just the way I am. When something does intrude, I try to be like Steve.

Re: You know what really drives me nuts?
Neither are that great smelling; let's be honest... Cigarettes are much worse smelling of the two.

Re: You know what really drives me nuts?
Any time a cigarette smoker complains about my cigar I just crop dust them.

Re: You know what really drives me nuts?
I was never a regular cigarette smoker but used to smoke them while out at the bars with friends (back when you could still smoke in bars). Now I really don't enjoy the smell of cigarettes. The cigar bars here only allow cigar smoking, so I don't end up mixing with cigarette smokers often.
I am also aware of the fact the to most non-smokers cigars don't smell great either, so I try to be respectful. On a few occasions I have had someone tell me that my cigar smelled good |

Re: You know what really drives me nuts?
I agree! You bring up a good point about how many annoying things occur all around us that no one says anything about, but god forbid you light up a cigar within 10 feet of a non-smoker.

Re: You know what really drives me nuts?
It's not bad enough I would leave, just how it is, not like cigarette smoke drives me away. There are times I would put out a cigarette if it was blowing toward someone and it bothered then and they were polite about it, my brother is allergic to the smoke so I know there are people it really messes with, nothing wrong with being polite to someone that is polite to you, on the other hand the people that pull the fake cough and throat clear can bite me, either say something or don't but don't play the little games.
That being said there are few places I smoke outside of a herf or my place, so don't really run into people that are bothered by the cigar smoke. |
