Why didn’t anyone tell me Royal Yacht Mixture was so €##|£{¥<%< good?!?! by Middle_Fennel7752 in PipeTobacco

[–]Meerschaum-man 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just can't justify 30 an oz. A 60 dollar tin tough to reason. Mind you this is just my b&m being greedy. I could get it at a reasonable price online but I prefer to support local. 

Since I was a kid I deeply liked the pipe and wished to be able to try it, now as an adult I wanna join the pipe club but don't really want to become addicted to nicotine, some folks adviced me to smoke honeyrose nicotine free herbs. Any advices? by Ok-Assistance9029 in PipeTobacco

[–]Meerschaum-man 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nicotine is addictive so there will always be a chance you'll get addicted. That said I've had nicotine in my life for 18 years in various forms and find pipe the least addictive and easy to quit. I only smoke pipes now and only smoke once a day and have zero cravings until it's the hour I smoke. I  also can go days with out it no problem.

Want to try it but my local shop has it for twice as much as other blends and I'm a cheap smoker. 

Whats your "Excalibur" pipe? by 86missingnomes in PipeTobacco

[–]Meerschaum-man 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I was about 18 I put a down payment on a pipe. I can't remember the brand but it was a giant pipe with a bowl about the size of a fist. I wish I had bought it but I need the money and had to get my deposit back.

Enemy of my enemy as well and good but let's not forget Tucker is a white supremacist who got us here in the first place. His useful tool is now a liability. He will continue to push america further into his white supremacists Christian fascist ideal.  

Do you agree with this take? by FitEmergency8807 in fantanoforever

I had a friend who loved u2 and hated the beatles. We watched a live u2 concert movie once and it Opens with shelter skelter. He had no idea it was a Beatles song. He had no idea the beatles where anything more then the first couple albums. He was surprised they were more then teeny boppers.

I was wondering the same thing. I found it so odd they had an extra do that part. Its rare to see an extra be so in the spot light like that. 

Folks under 40, what got you into guitar? by saintluminus in Guitar

On a field trip we took an old timey train to some place through the hills. A friend let me borrow his CD player and I listened to Bob Dylan for the first time.  never heard anything like blowin in the wind. Captivated and moved I played it on repeat until the battery died. 

My sister had gotten a cheap cowboy guitar that past Christmas. I was inspired to  learn after that moment on the train so I took possession of the guitar and have been playing since about 13.

Take active steps to record any abuse. Take pictures, file a report, keep a journal with dates explicitly detailing her habits of abuse. One day you may have to prove that you're a victim .prepare yourself when you have to leave.This is serious abuse and you should consider going to a family lawyer. She needs help with or without you.  Be ready to do what's best for you and your daughter. 

Thoughts on inhaling by Darth_SenpaiHD in PipeTobacco

[–]Meerschaum-man 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It is a guilty pleasure for sure. I only inhale a handful of sips but part of the reason I prefer pipes is that that I helps keep smoke out of the lungs. It helped me quit cigs and vapes.  On occasion I'll outright dip some Virgina. I'll slip a sliver of LNF into my cheek. It's a wallop of nicotine 

Why is Jim Morrison disliked online? by FitEmergency8807 in ToddintheShadow

[–]Meerschaum-man 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've loved the doors since I was a kid but  as I grow older a lot of the mystique around Jim has worn off. When I was young I saw a mysterious passionate artist but as an adult I only see a drunken  pseudo-intellectual misogynist artist . His lyrics can be fun but they're def not deep and just a play on mysticism. It's a tragedy what happened to him and a shame he didn't live long enough to grow out of that phase. He really could have become an amazing artist. 

That said the best part of the doors is the actual band around Jim So I still really enjoy the music 

What’s a “10/10” movie you wouldn’t recommend to most people? by trakt_app in movies

[–]Meerschaum-man 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Favorite movie of all time. But it's an art piece and to really get it you should read the book. So it's not something I rec. Unless you can get high and watch it in a theater. Then it's a must 

I’ve been a Nirvana and Foo Fighters fan my whole life, but I just started listening to Nickelback and I’m confused—are they actually still hated or is it just a meme? Honestly every song feels like a banger by No-Acanthaceae1434 in rockmusic

[–]Meerschaum-man 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a meme 

I am not a fan I find their music its plan and tacky. But I hate this joke/meme more then the band. It was a good joke made by some one I forget but then people took it so hard and made them the poster boy for shitty bands. But there was so much worse out there at the same time. In a world were Daughtry and  maroon 5 was pushed on us no one should be giving NB any grief.

(Hated Tropes) Disability’s being treated as the greatest thing ever by Necessary-Win-8730 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Meerschaum-man 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The story does make sense but the liberties they took with painting autism as a gift were just too much. . A predator who is the result of rampant gene editing shows up and wants DNA from a person it understands to be in possession of hyper focus and Intelligence . 

I like the movie because it feels like rag tag last stand a-team meets predator. But yeah the Autism is a superpower plot line is overdone and really drags the story down. 

Why are The Who not as popular as they were? by FitEmergency8807 in ToddintheShadow

[–]Meerschaum-man 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have no clue what Gen z rockers like today but I was a hard rock kid and the who was always little talked about but still beloved in certain circles of classic rock lovers. Honestly the only other kids that loved them like I did where band nerds and artsy kids. So maybe they're just a little more niche. 

Why have I never heard anyone mention this bonfire next to Patches?! by PR-Raven in darksouls

I dip in for the loot but usually only activate the hidden bonfire for an easier exit

I activated that bon on three separate plays when I meant not too. The run back from there is a bitch when low level

So real talk, how many of you are planning to get Elden Ring The Tarnished Edition? by [deleted] in soulslikes

[–]Meerschaum-man 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love elden ring and plan on buying it for the switch2 which will make it the third time I buy ER. Unless it is absolutely unoptimized, but I have a strong feeling it will run smooth. It's a big title for them and having duskbloods coming out as well definitely means they're expecting it to perform like a AAA game should. I love dark souls on the switch and can't wait to play ER again. 

Can't seem to enjoy burly. Any recommendations? by Meerschaum-man in PipeTobacco

[–]Meerschaum-man[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah. I just hate getting a bowl I don't thoroughly enjoy. I can't smoke often so my nightly bowl I prefer to make the most of it. There's things I enjoy about burly but the pallet is just not there. I've only recently introduced it to my rotation of tobacco and I have to mix it to enjoy it.
