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?

[AdamJoshua]

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.

Almost as annoying as a United fan talking smack on Liverpool FC! Better luck next year!
I had to YNWA!

C'mon, Gabe. Cut Dave some slack. After all, he is a fan of the game.

And I didn't hear him or any of the other ManU fans trash talking.

Still a damn funny post, tho.

Same here, but I only smoked cigarettes for five years. If someone lights up near me it just stinks. Nothing enjoyable about that smell anymore. I don't say anything however, if it's too bad I'll just get up and move.

Very sage. Thank you for posting this.

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.

cigarettes stink . I never smoked them in my house when I did smoke them .

It's rude to comment to the cig smokers so I don't

[mosesbotbol]

Neither are that great smelling; let's be honest... Cigarettes are much worse smelling of the two.

Cigarette smoke nor cigar smoke bothers me, what really bothers me are these stupid e-cigs, just man up and smoke if you're gonna smoke! Don't smoke some green apple bliss bullshit!!

Any time a cigarette smoker complains about my cigar I just crop dust them.

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

As long as I am smoking in a legal place I don't care if people get upset at the smell of my smoke, I hate the smell of that hippie patchouli oil but don't tell them to not wear it!

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.

Next season will surely be better under Van Gaal -- how could it be worse?

Are either you or Peter coming to NYC for Liverpool vs ManCity on 7/30? I'd say let's herf, but I'll be in DC for ManUtd vs Inter Milan on 7/29.

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!

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 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.
