Kahlua started off good, but then tasted badly and ended up with a VERY uneven burn - to the tune of one side being an inch longer than the other.Hypoxia II said:
“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”
Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.
Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers. Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.
I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"
She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.
You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.
She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.
The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

I'll never touch one to my lips with that fruity plastic tip.
Anyways, my favorite cigar so far is the Partagas Black Label. I just got back home from enjoying one, and when I smell it again the next day on my shirt, I like that smell better than some of my colognes. My friends have commented on how good it smells too, compared to other stogies.
My super-sophisticated way of weeding out other cigars to find that one for the first time was to...
...just pick the darkest cigar in the store
I found a store with some pre-embargo Cubans though, which I am going to get when I get paid again, along with a cigar with a nice cocoa flavor.

Partagas Black is a very good, if not a bit hard, cigar on an amateur pallate.
If it's the darkest maduro you want look no further my friend than the Iguana Mutant Black. Absolutely beautiful cigar with a smooth yet robust smoke.
Ashton maduro and the Amoroso maduro are very good. Of the three my favorite is the Amoroso robusto 54 x 4 3/4. Wonderful smoke for very little money.
Let me know what you think.

"I just moved here from Florida."
That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?
She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."
She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.
I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.
Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

Kittybaby,
A cuban may be too full flavored a smoke for you. I would advise something from CAO's line of flavored cigars. Moontrance is what my lady fancies. It's mellow and has a very smooth background.
Give Gio the cuban

Had a Pinar P3000 (made of pre embargo Cuban tobacco) two weeks ago. I looooved the full flavor, smoothness, even burn, good draw, and the two friends I smoked with loved it too. It seems to have gotten mixed reviews online. Maybe I got one of the good ones.

Right on brother
If full flavor, hearty smoke is what you're looking for Rocky Partel vintage 1992 may be just what you're looking for. Drew Estate Java super toro is another you'd dig.

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"
When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.
Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.
Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.
The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

My 1000th post.
Prudence dictates I should cross this small footstone with a post to my own (and favorite) thread.
Here it is all of my enlightenment and generousity for all of my brothers:
Smoke, drink, fvck, eat and most of all, love each other (platonically you sick fvcks!).

True Cuban Cohibas and Punch cigars
Recieved one of each of these from a close friend (yes, they are real and hard to come by). I've smoked the Cohiba, which has two rings. One is a double embossed Cohiba ring and the other is a black Reserva. Very very nice stick. Probably the best I've had this year! Shared it with Mrs. Karma by the pool with nice glass of Jack Daniels Green Label.

the joys...
Had my first cigar on Christmas at a relatives house....I must say smoking a cigar is very relaxing and enjoyable..
It was a Don Tomas from the Dominican Republic...
It was a great time, because the cigars was shared by the company of the older uncles. Lots of laughs ( guy humor..dirty jokes ) and stories.

Glad you enjoyed your cigar brother. Don Tomas is good for a low priced maduro. This is the essence of the cigar experience. The camaraderie is exponentially more valuable than the price of a quality cigar.Bro said:
"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"
I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.
The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.
Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

Brother, I would recommend the Rocky Patel vintage 1992, Romeo Y Julieta Reserva Real robusto, also Don Tomas Corojo is very smooth.Mjazz said:

There isn't any particular brand or style you should be searching out. It's all relative. You can shop at your local cigar store or tobacconist or go online:Bro said:

What is imperative is well built construction. Make sure it can hold at least 100 robusto sized cigars and that the tray is spanish cedar as well. Make sure it's heavy for it's size and read my post about the humidification process to get you started.
Any other questions please don't hesitate to ask. :rock:
