What the f**k...

I only plan on doing 2 things at a hotel: sleeping and humping. Luxury? Why.

5 star dining to me is a steak that I grill on my balcony and enjoy while watching The Simpsons.

BAH...I could go on and on but I won't. Why bother.

And I still maintain that Caputo should have done a little more research on the term "puff lifestyle"...the Brits here at CA know what I mean!

Well, IMO it isn't the software that makes the community. It's the members. I have alot of love for my botl from CS. I hope that we are all able to find a place to call "home". Where ever it is, and where ever my Brothers may be, I will be also. Just my

Quite the change from Club Stogies old no snob policy. It's sad to see but i'm honestly over it. Was kinda hard at first but now just about everyone I knew and had met at CS over the last three years came over here. I haven't been back there in some time.

Huzzah to the Asylum

awsmith4 · 01-11-2009, 08:54 PM

I wonder if all those folks that were mad when the migration started still believe nothing will change

DrDubzz · 01-11-2009, 08:56 PM

Personally I can't wait to talk about hotels and "really cool" lighters

"check out this awesome case I bought for my bic!"

"has anyone been to a new Ritz Carlton?"
"OMG Ritz FTW!"

You forgot about bragging rights as to who has the biggest private jet.

It might be longer, but my jet has more girth.

Forget about them. If they didn't wanna come over here, then so be it. Their loss.

A total 180 really.

Kinda off-putting as well, to me anyway. Sounds like a club for rich folks.

Yeah, sounds like an elitist fanboy club now. I guess since I normally stay at Holiday Inn expresses when I travel, have a 4 dollar Ronson lighter, haven't gotten around to buying a yacht yet, don't even own a watch, rarely go out to a 5 star restaurant, drive a Nissan, like beer better than wine, that i'm not welcome anymore. I just ain't living the puff lifestyle fellers!

I am curious about the best cigars part though. This being my first visit to Puff, I stumbled on this and laughed so hard I damn near blew beer out my nose!

Gurkha makes some of the rarest and most unique cigars on the market. Their use of some of the world’s best aged tobacco puts them at the top of the industry and with limited production runs, each cigar is rolled with precision and detail, ensuring a strict level of quality control.

Well that about seals it for me.

I agree with borndead that it's a complete 180.... the "no snob" thing and more casual atmosphere were some of the reasons why I joined. This sounds like they are trying to cater to the high-rolling crowd that actually tries to live the GQ lifestyle verbatim. Ugh.

I guess I'm sort of "lucky" in that I wasn't a CS member long enough to grow this strong attachment to the site.... I joined in October and a couple days later the bomb dropped. I will still miss it though.

If they had done *ANY* research about CS before they bought the site, it would have been clear that CS was *NOT* about any of this elitist BS. Thanks Team of 11 from saving us from a-holes like this!
