So what is the aversion on this site to calling cigars, sticks? Over the last 10 or so years I have read a lot of forums and it seems pretty common place to use that term.

I assume it is because this site is full of cigar snobs and calling them sticks would be beneath you.

Just curious.

No, these folks ain't cigar snobs Hank. They just don't want to sound like a trendy hipster like when they're at a mexican restaurant and they hear that douche from 'Cali' in that shrill voice going:

'OMG, we're being cultural over heeere!!!! We have FA JEET AHHHS! OMG!!! maybe we will smoke a stick when we are done like classy fellows.'

That kind of shït makes me puke hank. That's why I don't use the word sticks. So I don't like some 20-something hipster that just got into cigars.

Go online and try to shop for "sticks", see what you get.

A cigar is a cigar......why would you call it a "stick"........as a matter of fact the last thing I want to find in any of the cigars I smoke would be sticks 🤐

And I don't think anyone that knows me would call me a "cigar snob"........lots of things they might call me, but cigar snob is not one of them[-x

Anyone who is going to have an online hissy fit because you use "sticks " probably needs to change their meds.

Be you hank. You shouldn't care what any idiots on this forum say about you, just read some of their posts and ask yourself why you are trying to impress them.

Just curious, what is everyone's opinion about the word "gar or gars" when referring to cigars? See people often refer to "yard gars".
