Socratic irony?! I thought this was all Freudian symbolism.

I think perhaps I need to work on my use of Socratic irony.

We were just talking about this in the forum. These places can make a shit cigar sound so tempting, but if they say "I'll be honest, these are not the best cigars but look at the price" run like hell! Because when they admit that they are "not so good" you will be better off smoking some dried leaves off the back yard tree. I'm all for a good cheap smoke but you just can't cover up crap.

Group buy? I think not.

At the risk of sounding like a snob, I don't have any desire to try those cigars — especially since the manufacturer admits up front they're not very good.

Maybe George should take one for the team, kinda like his excellent series on value sticks.
