Whoa, you like to think that you’re immune to the stuff, oh Yeah
it’s closer to the truth to say you can’t get enough,
you know you’re gonna have to face it, you’re addicted to pnoon

That's how I first read it too. But, didn't have the clever-streak necessary to turn it into group hilarity.

Smoking cigars is a hobby. Collecting them, now *that's* an addiction.

I call it a hobby, because i don't like to call it an addiction, but like John said, if you aren't missing work for a cigar, or making excuses why you "need" to have a cigar instead of doing important tasks in life, who cares

I've been addicted to drugs before, and this ain't anything like that

Hobdiction! Addobby?

I have been smoking cigars every day for years and continue to smoke more and more while buying more and more making me an authority on the matter... There is no way that these things are addictive...

It's a hobby.

1) I don't NEED cigars in order to get through my day/week/month/whatever.
2) I can go weeks without a cigar and it doesn't bother me a bit.
3) It doesn't interfere with my financial situation and I'm not making decisions to either pay my cigar dealer or my bills.
4) I don't see crackheads rotating their junk while it ages and making sure it's kept at the right temp and humidity
5) I've never known an addict who was happy.

I don't mean this tongue in cheek, but I think all of us (in varying degrees, and myself included) get addicted to the buying and collecting and organizing.

Physiologically it's extremely difficult to become addicted to cigars. Not only is the nicotine absorbed in a slower and less direct fashion, but the nicotine itself has very little addictive property. The nicotine in cigars and the nicotine in cigarettes are two very different chemicals.

I bite my nails which is an addiction, it doesn't stop me from getting through the day, etc etc etc

i can quit anytime i want to.

This is a great topic. I agree with what many have already said. Truthfully without all you guys, cigars would mean nothing to me.

Ashcan Bill · 11-16-2009, 04:33 PM

I generally smoke a cigar a day. But I honestly don't need to. This last weekend, I didn't fire one up at all because I just didn't have the time to sit down and enjoy one. Didn't actually even cross my mind.

On the other hand, when I used to smoke cigarettes, no way would I have gone over two days without one. Couldn't have done it either physically or mentally.

Was I addicted to cigarettes? Yep.

Am I addicted to cigars? Don't think so.
