Stupid Cigar Things That Make You Smile

[Volusianator]

Removing cellophane that doesn't have a price tag on it. For some odd reason, it makes me smile every time, cause usually I know I bought it as a box and have more!

What's yours

[jimmyk26]

For me its when I open the seal on a new box. I just get really excited about all of the cigars I have to smoke now. Ahhh.

[Brutus2600]

It's the smell when I open my humidor. That whoosh of air from the seal of the box being opened and then the rush of that cigar aroma is my "cigar smile" moment :)

[elderboy02]

When I open my Aristocrat and I get that cedar/tobacco smell :)

[bonjing]

Getting the band off a cigar without tearing it up.

[CigarNut]

A perfect cut that results in a good draw and no tabacco bits in my mouth

Blow on the head after you cut it and you won't get any in your mouth :tu

[elderboy02]

Oh no, that ^ didn't sound right. Just waiting for a "That's what she said!"

[gijoey959]

For a newb like me, seeing more than 10 cigars that belong to me. When I bought my box of Cains, I was grinning so hard my cheeks hurt

[Volusianator]

When I bought my box of Cains, I was grinning so hard my cheeks hurt
Dude, I have a LOT of cigars, and when I bought my first box of Cain I felt the same way!

[SaltyMcGee]

A cigar so good that you smoke it until your fingers burn from the nub.

receiving an international tracking number in email.

[The Poet]

Bombs. Sending, receiving, or just reading about them on here.



Or maybe I wrote that backwards, as the phrase as stated is inversely proportional. :r

[Noomis]

When I tap out the ash and there's a perfect, glowing cone at the end of my cigar....

[MortonMilo]

When the ash stays on my cigar beyond all reasonable lengths.

[alwayslit]

An ash that stays on until you nub the cigar

[the MacDonald]

Lighting a cigar and enjoying every minute but feeling like I sliped into a time warp, and not realizing an hour or two has drifted by.

[cobra03]

receiving an international tracking number in email.

Better yet, when the package attached to the tracking number is setting on my door step when i come home.:D

[JJG]

yes! walking out of the post office with a new box makes me crack a mischievous grin. :D

but that's not a "stupid cigar thing" ;)

[Volusianator]

but that's not a "stupid cigar thing" ;)

LOL, yeah I know, only a couple have been. I was truly looking for the odd things that make you happy about cigars, of course we all get happy when a package arrives.

:tpd:

[thebayratt]

Me too!!

That and an ash that stays on longer than expected and won't budge with a tap... good stuff there!

[sikk50]

When my lighter runs out of fuel just after a perfect light and the cigar doesn't need a touch up.

Idk why.

[DropTheE]

I like when they put a ribbon on every level in your box of cigars to get the first one out, or turn one of the cigars of every level so that the celly is point upward and easy to grab.
When it's not there, I still smile cuz there's A BOX OF CIGARS IN FRONT OF MY FACE!!!! But the stupid little ribbon makes me happy!

[T.G]

Bad jokes told over cigars in the company of good friends.

[icehog3]

The look on a friend's face when I hand him a cigar he has been wanting to try.

[markem]

The look on a friend's face when I hand him a cigar he has been wanting to try.

The look on my friend's face when I said, "sign the box, not the bag" ;)

[Ogre]

Sitting on the porch with a friend, some scotch and a good cigar!!!

[Superbad]

Box press cigars that remind me of my grandfather. I miss him!

[kgraybill]

When a cigar I thought would only be a yard gar turns out to be very enjoyable.

[G G]

Bombs. Sending, receiving, or just reading about them on here.
I was thinking the same thing.:tu

I love sending them, and everytime I get one I have to smile cause someone took the time to think of me.

[Sailchaser]

When the cigars that arive at the house are ordered by your wonderful wife:D




Or not and you get away with sneaking the box in the house





Or you get caught bringing the box in and your wife likes what you ordered

[ZachF88]

It's the smell when I open my humidor. That whoosh of air from the seal of the box being opened and then the rush of that cigar aroma is my "cigar smile" moment :)

x2! my wife always ask "what smells so nice?"

[RevSmoke]

When you're puffin' on a nub that's really small and someone asks you, "You really enjoying it that much? Do you want a roach clip or something?"

But my favorite is, "But you're a pastor, you can't smoke."

To which I respond, "So, can I buy us each a beer to enjoy while we sit and discuss this misconception?"

Peace of the Lord be with you.

[maninblack]

I gotta go with a nice big ash that doesn't drop off. And getting new packages in the mail. I'm like a kid at Christmas.

[Skywalker]

Hearing the delivery truck pull up to the house!!!:tf

[icehog3]

The look on my friend's face when I said, "sign the box, not the bag" ;)

:r :r

I'm such a douche bag.

[OLS]

After reading them all, and only til then, I came up with mine. Our old blind dog that used to
smell termites for a living, now is only a specialist at detecting a potato chip bag opening
somewhere. When that old blind dog barks, I know the mailman is coming, and when I
count the days right, I usually hear them call my name up front.

There is also one about how I used to freak out about being without a cutter somewhere, in
the house, at work, in the car. Like reading glasses. Well now I smoke havanas and I can just
pinch a divot out of the cap and it smokes fine without a cut. Can't do that with lots of NC cigars.

[CigarNut]

It was so cool yesterday when my wife called me at work before she left work: "You just got a box delivered from Swiss Post" and the box arrived about a week before I was expecting it :D

[Subvet642]

I like when they put a ribbon on every level in your box of cigars to get the first one out,... But the stupid little ribbon makes me happy!

Yeah, I love that too! It says that these are special enough to warrant that kind of attention to detail.

I'm looking forward to that little thrill, in the "not too distant future"! :tu

Clipping a Cohiba Lancero and it isnt plugged. :)

I'm impressed, maybe you should market those finger nails...$1 a clip.

[cbsmokin]

That barnyard smell.

[whodeeni]

When I finally found my "Review Journal" this morning after
it being misplaced for a week!:tu

[whodeeni]

Going to the mailbox, seeing a key for larger packages, opening that box
and its just overflowing with both Cigar boxes and USPS Flat rate boxes!:r

[croatan]

Cabinets of cigars that come the way God intended them: naked!


Also, lighting expensive cigars with cheap lighters and vice versa (lighting a JLP with a Dupont or a Dunhill with a Bic always makes me smile).

[Morgue]

Very Nice! You sir are a tribute to cigar smoking kind ;)



The look of a nicely organized FULL humidor.


Especially if it is mine :)

[dvickery]

seeing what the "mules" bring home for you...i always send a list of 20 or 30 cigars that i would like...then a week of suspenders.

derrek :hm

[axi]

Pulling a full box of cigars out by the ribbon and taking the first deep inhale into the whole batch.

[RevSmoke]

What's yours

Finding a deal on a box I've really been wanting and finally having the $$ to spend to get it.

[Volusianator]

Not sure why, but spitting loose pieces of tobacco on the floor just kinda reminds me of what the old days may have been like. A simple pleasure.

[darkninja67]

That burnt flesh smell before I put a nub to rest. :D

[benedic08]

Smoking a cigar that you have never tried before and immediately falling in love with it... That puts a huge smile on my face :D

[Subvet642]

Smoking a cigar that you have never tried before and immediately falling in love with it... That puts a huge smile on my face :D

Yeah, that's a good one! :tu

[Volusianator]

When a vein in a wrapper shows up as a dark line in the ash. I think that's kinda cool.

[Barteur]

A nice,straight burn, with that little welt around the wrapper just ahead of the burn line.

Sitting in the shade of a palm tree by my office at lunch in the steamy shade, smoking a good cigar that becomes great when I start reading an interesting thread here. Thinking I have to get to The Shack one of these years!

:tpd:...those are both smile moments for me. I also love giving someone a smoke they've been wanting to try...that always gets a grin too. :tu

[DPD6030]

Yellow packages :D
