As did we all :) Hence why I have 9 humidors in my house right now!

Been there done that! Many an hour did I spent by the burn barrel when I was deployed. That is until some dumb@ss dumped a bunch of live ammo in the burn bin! I quit volunteering to burn the paper after that!
Cigars are only for rich, stuck up, snobbish people who light them by burning $100 bills. (Not even kidding!)
FALSE!!! Cigar smokers are some of the coolest, laid back, generous, normal people I have ever had the pleasure to meet!
Cigars should be really moist and squishy for best results.
You have to use a jet lighter to light a cigar as a regular lighter will give it a butane taste.
FALSE!! A regular flame lighter works just fine, if maybe taking a bit longer to light. I just found this one out in the last couple months :)
For the last 2 yrs I have read, snooped, questioned, bought, smoked,and new humi'ed it...and as for right now, I defiantly, positively, know & understand, I have no clue as to what Im looking for in a cigar......
Man these are great responses. This is one reason I love cigars, we can all look back and think of at least one stupid misconception or stupid thing we have done all while continuing to learn new things almost everyday.
I think Old Smokey wins with this statement. I think this is one of the truest thing in cigars.
How many LIKEs can i give this one???
I was ones told, while picking out a cigar in my local B&M, the only reason a woman smokes cigars is to pick up men. Made me so mad!!! I was, however, pleasantly surprised when the owner asked the guy to leave the premises until he is able to show respect.
Yea im in college so I have my sturdy armored humidor(highly recommended) that I felt would be sufficient in relation to how little I smoke.
And I've learned that 65 is the new 70 when it comes to humidity. I used to target for 70 and just figured up to 74 or so was in the ballpark. Then I couldn't understand all the burn problems I had. Now I target for 65 (and with Boveda packs now in my humidor, I'm so much closer to "set it and forget it") and feel comfortable being slightly above on occasion.
