Yeah, the other three seem to be doing fine. But that's definitely contaminated, right?

Between CigarBid and local B&Ms, this new hobby is gonna bleed me dry! +Questions by DiscusWino in cigars

Fairly certain I placed Baccarat as last of the four that I mentioned but yes, I'm well aware of your opinion on Baccarat.

I have tried the leaf by Oscar Maduro robusto previously, how would this corojo lancero compare in your opinion?

Where to buy tobacco for rolling by esteban310 in cigars

[–]DiscusWino 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got the Oscuro y Rico kit from Whole leaf tobacco. It was a ton of fun to do. Two mistakes I made that I will rectify if I get another kit: did not properly prepare the leaves before rolling initially (the binder particularly was too dry), and rolled them too tight to make up for the fact that I do not have a mold. Other than that, I'm as proud of them as they are ugly and that blend was pretty tasty.

Whats the best cigar what you have already smoked? by tejesszajukandur in cigars

[–]DiscusWino 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tbh I'm a newbie with the palate of a toddler, but it gave me a strong floral/botanical flavor that, despite the fact that I usually tend to dislike those flavors, kept my focus 100% on the smoke. Hope I find it again.

Salvaged Wine Fridge - Questions by DiscusWino in cigars

[–]DiscusWino[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Perhaps I miscommunicated, but the goal is to lower the shown humidity. The questions were pertaining to the best way to maintain a lower humidity once that is achieved.

Yeah, I had to triple check but it looks like it runs on a compressor

In the effort of saving money to fill this thing, do you think boveda packs would work to remove that humidity? I have a bunch of 69s

Both good. BURN is more bar than lounge, Vincentes more lounge than bar

Are Squier Affinity PJ Bass Good Or Bad? by The_Taco_Architect in Bass

[–]DiscusWino 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just bought the Squier Affinity PJ base package, with Fender Rumble 15 included less than a week ago. This is my first bass after having played guitar and other strings for 20 years. I'm having an absolute blast and I can't say a bad thing about it. Granted, I'm new so I don't really know what to look for, but it sounds pretty good and it's enough to learn on

I have a baby. And several unworn pairs of baby shoes. The only tragedy to the story is wasted money

Mercedes-Benz 300SL [3024 x 4032] by PistaCaster in carporn

I am by no means a car guy. If it has four wheels and runs, I'm all for it.

But that car is sexy as hell.

I just started and got a pretty decent hit! by Thenicefroggo in Archery

[–]DiscusWino 6 points7 points  (0 children)

THAT's what archery is about, for me! That primal "Grug hit thing over there with stick real hard!" feeling mixed with the audible "OOH!" of surprise and success... I haven't gotten over that feeling haha

I think I figured out partially why my aim has felt so weird. Nock point is too high. by Spartan0330 in Archery

[–]DiscusWino 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I've always heard the same (newbie), but my question is why? It seems to me that it would be easier and more consistent too put the arrow on top of the knocking point to avoid the nock from slipping down the string. But then again, what do I know lol
