You get a piece of mail that says, new Premiere Gold, and you open it thinking it's a new line from CAO...lol...Damn visa gettin my hopes up

....if your wife awakes you and asks, "Hey! What's this about 'Yeah, baby; smooth draw to the nub!'"

What's even worse... you apply for the Premier Gold card and when you get your card you discover that it comes with a statement showing a cbid purchase already on it!

haha...this thread could be fun:

You have more humidors than CBID.com
You talk about your cigars more than you S.O./kids/etc.
CBID is on speed-dial
CBID is the opening page of your browser..LOL

you got me on the last one...

You reply to a post on the board a minute after it is up 😎

Your hobby is re-arranging your humidors.

You plan your vacation around where to buy those hard to get cigars.

Your young children know the definition of herf.

a humidor is never more than 6" away (Rick...).

Your first born child is named Cohiba.

You have a 1,000 sq ft house with a 500 sq ft walk in humidor.

Your nickname is stogie.

You have a cigar label coffe table.

....if you find yourself considering a cigar even when there's a remote possibility your SO is in the mood.

LMAO! "Cohiba Needleman".

__x___ All of the above

...every time you head for the back door, your 2-yr old asks, "Daddy, going outsod to 'moke a gar?"

...every time you head for the closet, your 2-yr old comes up and asks, "Daddy, you playing with you 'gars"?

...you smell your fingers every every so often while watching TV or when doing any other activity you deem not so important.

...you pull over the UPS guy to see if he has your CBid package...and you are miles from your neighborhood.

...you get really excited (I mean really) when walking through the Tupperware/Rubbermaid aisle at Wal-Mart or K-mart.

...you insist on making love to your SO in the closet because the temperature is consistent and the humidity has a chance of going even higher...

These are all off the cuff:
1. your mouth waters at the thought of a cigar after looking ar cbid or any cigar site/mag.
2. you get your clothes out of the washer and cigar bands are all shredded up in the machine.
3. you have 6 barely used bottles of butane around your house (for your lighter).
4. you stop in every cigar shop on your vacation looking at their prices and selection.
5.every knick-knack in your house is housed in a cigar box.
6. you have hundreds of match boxes and/or baggies lying around.
7. when people tell you stories of insects or vermin raiding their house, you bring up cigar bettles like they are a plague.
8. your favorite number is 70. 70/70 that is.
good for off the top of my head, eh?

You have to buy a new cooler every time you go camping cause you filled the old/new one with cigars.

JD1, the G/F and the kid already ask me on a weekly basis when's my next herf,When I get up to do anything even walk outside or go to the store on a weekend,she says will you be home early from the Herf.WTF,I'm goin to the grocery store...LOL,I must be worse then I thought!

The short answer is a gathering of cigar smokers.

The Slimboli answer.

The long answer, LOL, is:

The un-official word of ASC is Herf. Herf is a unique part of speech. It can be correctly used as a noun, a verb, an adjective, an adverb, an infinitive, a prefix, a suffix and an explicative.

The arcane word "herf" first entered the ASC lexicon on November 21, 1996, and was quickly elevated to frenetic and common use by ASCers. The Prince of Skeeves exposed ASC to the word herf in a casual posting to the group... however it was ASCers, as a budding collective, who took the word and made it divine.

Herf is now virulently spreading to worldwide common use as hip cigar parlance.

HERF - CHRONOLOGY:>/b>

As for the origin of Herf, here's the History of Herf (it's a matter of record on DejaNews)...

The word "herf" first appeared on ASC...

It was November 21, 1996... the elections were over, and "herf" unceremoniously beams into our lexicon... And, you were there (here's the exact post)...

I bought a Canaria d'Oro(sic?)Robusto out of curiousity and it was really a horrible, stale,grassy smoke with a peed-on taste. I gave it about 2 inches before I put it out. Also, anything Macanudo...I tried several when I first began smoking cigars and found them all to be very bland and almost impossible to herf, they were so tightly wrapped. I think the list of `Mediocre Smokes' for most folks would be huge.

So there you have it ... 🙂
