When do you own a box?

[skibumdc]

According to Addiction's wording, if you consume 1 cigar out of a box, you no longer have a BOX.

For example, he has 5 full intact boxes of Cohiba Reservas, and 1 open box.

Now MOST of us would say he has 6 boxes, but Addiction is VERY specific in his wording and says he only has 5 boxes.

Is his math or wording correct?

If his wording is true, then I only have 3 boxes.

I tried using that Fuzzy Math with my wife
Yeah, she didn't buy it.

So, if I open a PSD4 box and consume 1 or 2 cigars, do I still have a box?

I own 100's of boxes.

No more cigars in them though.....

So If have a bag of chips and eat one chip, than I don't have a bag of chips anymore? Which means than I can go buy another bag of chips? hmmmmmm I might need to use this one!!

All I know is that Addiction better have a good security system because those SIX boxes of Cohiba Reservas sound freakin sweet

Example:
I had a friend stop by the day before Christmas and say he ran out of time buying a box of CCs for a friend. It was way beyond too late to order online. He asked if he could buy a box of something special for his friend?

I told him, "Sorry, I have no boxes!!! Perhaps I could put a box together?"

Did he walk away with a box of really nice cigars? Yes!

Were they all the same marca? No!

I owned no boxes!!!

He doesn't need a security system....have you seen him?
If someone crossed him, they might never find the body

Prime example of the old adage (correctly worded, Adam of Leeds, Yorkshire will back me up on this one....)

You can't eat your cake and have it too.....

(i.e. American way of saying it is "you can't have your cake and eat it too", which is absurd since if you have the cake, of course you can eat it, however the correct adage states you cannot eat the cake and also have it.)

Hope that clears this mess up!!!

Hahahaaaaaaaaa

Unless things have changed a lot since my days in the service no body armor for the face lol.

If you sold 21 cigars as a box, and that box of cigars started with 25, you would get flamed over it. So clearly less than the full compliment isn't a box.

A diesel train left the station traveling north 1.5 hours before a freight train. The freight train traveled in the opposite direction going 6 km/h faster then the diesel train for two hours after which time the trains were 312.3 km apart. Find the diesel train's speed.

What was the question???

I never was good with math!!!

[slickster81]

Solved using Spock logic.....

If Addiction sends Slick his open boxes, then he will have nothing but full boxes based on the definition of the many.



Too darn much coffee this morning........

For the sake of transactions.

To my own personal stock keeping:
If it's only missing 3 or fewer, it's still a box.
If it's short a 5er or more, then it's most of a box.
Obviously, if approximately half the original number remain, it's half a box.
If there's less than 1/3 of the original number, I have none... and an excuse to go shopping.

Here's the brainbender: If I have two boxes of the same cigar (both date & factory stamps are identical), does combining two partial boxes mean I once again have a box?

I would say yes because supposedly all sticks came from the same factory on the same date

I'm not sure anyone on this forum is dealing with a full box

Too funny Marianne...but true!

[Blueface]

Is this a partial box of cigars or partially a box of cigars?
Is it even a box at all?
Does this person even have cigars?
Is it half full or half empty, if he once had another box to go with this once use to be box?
Could these Anejos be too old to qualify as cigars and now should be called vintage?
Does a box of vintage qualify as a box of cigars?
Does a box that once housed cigars and is now empty still qualify as a box of cigars or is it just a box that WAS for cigars?
Why does the sun rise in the east and set in the west?
Why do people drive on parkways and park on driveways?
Why do birds suddenly appear, every time, you are near, just like me, they long to be, close to you. On the day that you were born, the angels got together and decided................................
Why did I just recite the freaking lyrics to a Carpenters song?
What the hell am I doing?
Why am I not smoking a cigar from a box that use to be a box before I killed the idea it is still a box?

I respectfully disagree. What if the boxes came from different vendors? What if they have different shade wrappers? There are a lot of variances between boxes. I couldn't in good conscience combine two partial boxes into one and market it as a box.
