you will not argue about here?

Is cigar smoking good?

Is cbid a good site to get a deal on cigars?

cello on or cello off?

Is Bloody funny?

Can I wear my searsucker suit after Labor Day?

Can Mrs Tank make a cookie or what?

Is Adroomi really Santa's **** love child?

Okay. I guess we'd still argue those if we had to, but I don't think anyone would feel the need to argue any of them.

No there isnt.

I posted a pic of a watch. A pretty safe subject... I thought. But it was shut down because of a couple of guys who didnt like me buying a Rolex. And because I responded to rude posts about it.

Rude comments like "what a waste of money" or "the reasons for owning one are repulsive". This pisses me off! Unless it really affects your life in some way, shut the hell up if you dont like what ever it is.

If someone posts a pic of say a car, a motorcycle, a house, a humidor full of smokes, or a watch.

Why do people try to put it down? It isnt worth starting an argument over it. Now I can see debating politics or topics that are important.

There are all status and income levels here. I get the feeling that some jealousy sets in with a few folks.

Rug,

You can wear your "seer"sucker suit 12 months a year if you have the looks, and the dough to get away with it......

Personally, I wear a seersucker jacket with a ribbon ringed belt and white nubuck suede shoes. People think, "gee, who does that guy think he is dressing like that," and then I walk passed them, step to the front of the line, and board with the first class passengers as the gate staff hand me a glass of champagne and say good afternoon "Mr. Adroomi" "thank you for joining us today, would you like a pair of leather slippers to match your Rolex that you bought on Ebay just like Tranny."

I love Rolex.....and if you can get a good deal on one, then go for it!

One thing we CAN'T argue about, and that is your sense of need to bring me into EVERY single thread you post on.......

adroomi, I traded tranny work for the watch. It took 4 rebuilds of high end cars to do it...

we'llven argue about what is or is not arguable...

i second that emotion

Who me? LOL

i used to have a searsucker jacket. i thought it was cool.

why would anyone care about what someone else is wearing except for the oinks.

i saw the watch. looked good to me.

Tranny,

There are plenty of other watches out there that are HIGHLY competitive with the Rolex......

Personally though, to me, a Rolex is a realization....it's the realization that you FINALLY made it....that you finally worked, struggled, and succeeded personally enough to put something on your wrist that you can be proud of.

The way you got yours is even more of a personal triumph than most guys. Something you can be VERY proud of.

Wearing a Rolex that you bought or earned is sort of like riding a bike......as the old saying goes, "I it has to be explained to you, then you probably wouldn't understand anyway."

adroomi

you just quoted louis armstrong re jazz.

Jazz.......now that's a word I like. It even SOUNDS jazzy.

Yes, there are several things that we won't argue about:

We miss seeing you and Chris post.

(Blacky & Cuda are missed as well)

Eherf has WAY too many bells and whistles.

Cbid has the BEST support crew.

Rick, JonR, EI, Bassdude, and Adroomi don't back down.

Ruggy has no fear & will take you to the Octagon (come to think of it so will Tranny).

AndyTV, 8Trackdisco, & Beatdragon are funny (and odd).

Jackconrad and Ryan are just odd.

Rambo & Stephan are relentless and speak in the 3rd person.

MACS tells it like it is.

Chippo will goof on your momma.

Snowqueen, MrsTank, Cigarbidwidow, and Heather (Ruggysgirl) are a GREAT bunch of ladies.

We have fanstastic cameos from some of the best/funniest/Brightest in the cigar world- Al, Jon, the Bucanero guy, and yes, John Hays.

IMHO, guys like Pablo, Slim, the Steves, Lofty, Charlie, X, Lofty, Kazama, JohnL, Billy, Wags, Lukin, Thom, VFR(Lanternjaw), Homebrew, PMoreno, LLT, Dave Adams, Dan Dapper, Buckwheat, Cexshun, Gonesledn, the gigantic edbug, and a few others are what make this board unique.

Can't argue about that.

Adroomi, Thanks for clearing that up for me. I don't really have a seersucker suit (I know more proof of what a liar I am) nor the money or looks to get away with it. Although I might suggest that neither do you. You have enough money to not be told you look goofy. I don't think there is enogh money to make one look good in seersucker. LOL

I don't wear a watch. If Tranny's jeweler friend needed three bathrooms tiled maybe I'd wear one. If so that's the watch I’d wear. Very nice Mike, some people just like pissing in other people's wheaties (they are also the first to yell foul when it happens to them). Don't let it get to you.

Thanks Bloody.

I would say one of the only things that wouldn't be argued about would be the love of the leave from "almost" everyone on here.

You guys are all completely wrong.

Ruggy, I love you brother but do you ever take a breather? LOL!

PS: I'm more into rolodex than Rolex myself. Give me a good $25 watch + a cheap pair of tennis shoes and I'm fine on weekends.

actually, mrsdelta, that's what i like about this place. the diverse opinions make you think twice about just about everything you can think of. you could open a thread that has a subject you have absolutely no interest in and learn something about it. it's funny how something that seems so irrelevant to me can be so contentious for others. this environment has helped me to understand respect for the differences we have in society as a whole. additionally, it has taught me patience in trying to understand opposing viewpoints. discussions are good as long as we can stay civil. sometimes, though, it does get out of hand. we could probably do without that.

I love irony.

Yet, when I posted a question regarding a problem with my computer, he responded by taking pleasure in my situation.

Now, there may not be any "jealousy" per se, but how insignificant and empty must one's life be to take pleasure in other peoples dilemmas?

For the record, I responded with an equal dose of immaturity and one-upsmanship. I didn't want to dissappoint...

bloody spaniard

wall-mart has slip on "shoes" for $3.50 for two. one for each foot.

rubber bottom, canvas slip on's.

if you define shoes as things that cover your feet then these are shoes. remember the pink ones? $3.50.

on a shoe rack in my closet, eel skin i bought on st thomas, bally's blue slip on's, two pr of cowboy boots, one snake the other some kind of dead animal.

there is something about buying half a dozen pair of shoes for a bit over $20.00.
