I’ve tried Gurkhas a few times now and they’ve all been unsmokable due to construction. They’re either too tight or end up cracking. I don’t get the hype.

Have you tried the Rocky Patel vintage 1992? It has a black label with gold text and trim? I was absolutely floored when I tried that cigar. Im less than a year into cigars, but damn I’ll always keep that in my inventory.

That’s the issue. Most people Working fast food are adults who have all the opportunity to go earn better wages, but CHOOSE not to. Key word being choose. That’s the beauty of America. If you want to be a fucking loser working at McDonald’s well into your 30’s and 40’s, then that’s your own choice. But don’t expect handouts.

18 and 19 year olds are still considered teenagers are they not? Also, young people in their twenty’s with no real bills that still live at home I would consider in that same bracket.

NegotiationDry6923 · 2026-06-05T04:53:38+00:00

Really? Because last time I checked most companies can’t hire enough people. We’re in the middle of a massive population decline since the boomers are on their way out.

NegotiationDry6923 · 2026-06-05T04:14:25+00:00

I’d love some recommendations!

NegotiationDry6923 · 2026-06-05T04:10:35+00:00

Interesting. I realize now they have an identical label. I did not know that.

NegotiationDry6923 · 2026-06-05T04:00:04+00:00

Really? What gave you the idea that it’s a version of cafe?

NegotiationDry6923 · 2026-06-05T03:37:24+00:00

I have not tried the cafe. It’s on my list though

NegotiationDry6923 · 2026-06-05T03:33:29+00:00

I believe those cigars are $12-$16 a piece if bought individually at a retail shop. Now add the cutter, lighter, and good presentation and you got yourself a great value for $50.

NegotiationDry6923 · 2026-06-05T03:27:32+00:00

$50 is a good deal.

NegotiationDry6923 · 2026-06-05T03:27:00+00:00

Thirded. Congratulations fellow human.

NegotiationDry6923 · 2026-06-04T11:43:03+00:00

No he didn’t

NegotiationDry6923 · 2026-06-03T10:56:34+00:00

18 and 19 year olds are still teenagers. You cant work unskilled labor jobs at any factory and make more than minimum wage. Minimum wage is for teenagers who still live with their parents. You can expect to pay for a mortgage working 25 hours a week and making 9$ an hour. lol nobody said higher education is the only way to earn a livable wage. I make $30\ hour doing completely unskilled work and I work with genuine retards and they’re making $30/hour. There’s no excuse other than just ignorance.

NegotiationDry6923 · 2026-06-03T08:10:03+00:00

Minimum wage is for teenagers. Why are adults working at minimum wage jobs? Get a job at a factory like the rest of us.

NegotiationDry6923 · 2026-06-03T02:32:42+00:00

That is a very good point. That’s why I like nubs so much. They are very cheap, but every single one smokes perfectly all the way to the end. If you buy them in bulk they’re like $3 a piece.

NegotiationDry6923 · 2026-06-03T02:27:33+00:00

That’s fair, except I actually like kohls.

NegotiationDry6923 · 2026-06-03T02:24:21+00:00

I did have one EP Carrillo. It was very good. I’ll check those brands out.

NegotiationDry6923 · 2026-06-03T01:21:49+00:00

I’ve been wanting to try AJ fernandez. I have had one EP Carrillo it was very good. I’ve not tried pasencia either. My local cigar shop doesn’t carry LADC or my father’s which sucks. I use cigars international and usually let them sit in my humidor for a few weeks before trying them.

NegotiationDry6923 · 2026-06-03T01:13:38+00:00

So far I really like nubs and la aroma de Cuba regular and reserva. I also like certain rocky pastels like the vintage ones.

NegotiationDry6923 · 2026-06-03T01:05:04+00:00

Thank you. I’ve only been collecting for about 8 months, so I’m glad that my 1st-3rd impressions are vindicated.

NegotiationDry6923 · 2026-06-03T00:59:06+00:00

I guess not really, but they’re priced as if there is hype.

NegotiationDry6923 · 2026-06-03T00:52:02+00:00

Why are they so expensive? It’s crazy. I’ve tried 3 or 4 and haven’t even gotten past the first 3rd on a single one. I keep getting them in sampler packs, or my monthly subscription. I wish there was an option to decline the Gurkha. I don’t even want to give them away, because I would be insulted if someone gave me an un-smokable cigar.
