WHAT IS A HERF?

Most simply, "Herf" means to enjoy a cigar, usually by smoking it. However, it can get a bit more complex, for example; You can go to a Herf, and not smoke a cigar, but still really enjoy the Herf.

That being said, here's a bigger picture...

HERF... to herf; herfing; herfers; the ASC Philly Herf; the Gellman Office Herf; Herfedor; circle-herfs; herf-off; an after-dinner herf; the San Francisco Herf; Gentlemen, you may herf...

The un-official word of ASC (internet newsgroup) is Herf. Herf is a unique part of speech. It can be correctly used as a noun, a verb, an adjective, an adverb, an infinitive, a prefix, a suffix and an explicative. The arcane word "herf" first entered the ASC lexicon on November 21, 1996, and was quickly elevated to frenetic and common use by ASCers. "The Prince of Skeeves" exposed ASC to the word herf in a casual posting to the group... however it was ASCers, as a budding collective, who took the word and made it divine. Herf is now virulently spreading to worldwide common use as hip cigar parlance.
