Anyone who is a dedicated cigar smoker, meaning that they visit lounges and smoke, hold herfs and smoke, trade, bomb, PIF, etc. know that cigar smokers overall are super generous. Almost to a fault. 98% of cigar smokers realize this and in turn will return an act of kindness with a similar act of kindness, for example, I give you a cigar to try and in turn you give me one to try.
There is a small amount of people probably around 2% who are new to cigars and have recognized the generosity of fellow BOTL’s (Brothers of the Leaf) and have chosen to exploit it. This happens specifically on cigar forums such as Cigar Asylum, BOTL, etc. These are individuals that are often found responding to threads about a certain cigar with responses such as “Wow, I wish I could try that…” or “What does that taste like? I’d really like to try one…” and so on and so forth.
Another practice of seasoned BOTL’s is the act of “bombing” your friends. This is where you package up some sticks you enjoy or they enjoy and fire it off to an un-suspecting friend. It’s a really nice gesture, it feels good to get bombed and even better to bomb. However these same individuals who try to fish for free sticks using the previous method also fish for bombs. They do so by putting their address as their location on the forum; posting comments like “Wow, I wish someone would bomb me with sticks like that” or when someone posts an incoming bomb they say stuff like “Oh man….I better get a new mailbox”. Nobody said the bomb was for you, dipshit.
Why am I ranting about this you might ask? I am ranting because this is a BS moocher behavior. These guys are not bombing people or sending guys sticks, they’re just here to try to get free shit. They’re a drain on the BOTL way and it’s just an overall scummy practice. So this is for all the mooch MF’s out there fishing for free cigars, if you sit back and enjoy the community, make some friends, send some sticks, and show you’re a BOTL, you will be rewarded with a great circle of friends, who may share some sticks with you. If you continue to be a mooch, fisherman, or typical loser, you won’t get shit from BOTL’s other than the cold shoulder.

This has NOT been edited for grammar and spelling errors, because I don’t give a shit today.
