You have not been forgotten!

[Mr.Draned]

Hey brothers,
You guys have kicked the everliving sh*t out of me with bombs since I joined a few months ago, but I have yet to hit most of you back.
My wife and I have been managing to pay the bills with what we earn at our jobs, but not much more. So, it's tough for me to get the money together to buy some smokes and "return fire," as us military guys would say.
I'm hoping that next month I can start sending some rounds downrange at my list of targets, and show you how much I've appreciated the generosity.
That is all, carry on with the plan of the day.
Oh, this IS NOT me asking for more cigars!

 

[atbat82]

So you're saying you need more cigars?

Hey everyone, @Mr.Draned needs more cigars!

 

[Mr.Draned]

So you're saying you need more cigars?

Hey everyone, @Mr.Draned needs more cigars!

You're a madman!

 

[Smoqman]

No sir, I do not need cigars. I am full, and I don't want anyone to send me anything. I don't want ANY cigars!

Fixed that

 

[Mr.Draned]

@Smoqman quoted me perfectly. 100% true statement there! I'm actually going to a b&m party next month where you usually leave with 20 or more nice cigars. No bombs needed.
If you have an itchy trigger finger, I've lazed a few targets for you:
@dontWIZonme, @THEMISCHMAN @Master Shake, @jfettlol, @FullyArmedFISD, @daleo8803, @EO80, @sanity, @smokinbrew, @luckysaturn13, @ZippoGeek, @Tim H, @multi-useless, @3/5King
Sorry guys, sometimes you have to redirect fire where it's needed!

 

[Tim H]

I didn't bomb you expecting to be bombed back. Spend your money on important things and not on cigars to send to me. Your family is much more important!

i 2nD that

 

[EO80]

I think he is getting tired of being picked on.
But seriously, financial responsibility. Get the bills taken care of. And babies are expensive. I am sure the rest of us can help take care of the cigars for you.

 

[Mr.Draned]

You guys are way too kind, seriously!

I know I'm a new face to the board but I don't think bombs are something that you have to return the favor for. Nothing wrong with it of course but the point of a bomb isn't to get anything back its just about giving. Generally when I bomb someone I just tell them to pay it forward if they feel obligated to send something back.
Enjoy the gifts and don't pressure yourself I'm sure life does enough of that for you as it is.

Well said!

Thanks for the reminder that I haven't bombed you yet. I think it is fair to say that no one expected anything in return. It's a bomb... not a trade.

 

[THEMISCHMAN]

Don't worry about returning any fire, Ian. I don't believe any Brother here bombs another Brother with the sole intention of getting cigars back in return. If they are then they are in the wrong place and have no idea what BOTL really is.

The truth is, we just like picking on you because you're a good dude.

That, and because we're all a bit sick in the head. But seriously, no bombs need to be repaid. Just enjoy the generosity and relax with a nice cigar.

And did I hear your having a baby? That needs to be celebrated.

 

[Mr.Draned]

Thanks a lot guys. I guess I'm from the "old school" and that's where my logic originated.
As for you guys being sick in the head...if that's the case, I'm glad to be in the same psych ward as all of you guys.
The friendship and camaraderie here is tough to be matched!

 

[daleo8803]

Lol keep your money brother! You are going to need it for more storage! Wahahahaha!!!!

 

[dontWIZonme]

Woah woah woah. I don't need anything back! Like Misch said, you're a great guy and I'm just sharing the love!

Hey brother, I'm old school too, I always repay even when they say no. However timing is an interesting thing here. You can always hit that person down the line and it will be a nice surprise.

 

[ZippoGeek]

Ian, don't even worry about it brother...just pay it forward as they say!

Sgt Hulka gets it.
