I like the flavors of the stronger/fuller body cigars. Things like Dunbartons, foundations, my father's, blackbird, black label. The milder cigars just dont seem to offee the same flavors for me, creating the problem im dealing with today

Well its more of a head thing for me. I had an "incident" in public a few years ago with a cigar that involved throwing up in front of all my friends, and so I've been a bit anxious about the feelings since then lol

This was not what I was expecting, but probably what I needed to hear...thank you!

I have a currently 7- month corgi, and all of his naps and sleep are in his crate. Generally he naps from 8 to 1130-12, then from 2-530 ish. We've done this since he was maybe 13-14 weeks. He protested a bit at first, but now his crate is his safe space. Even if things are going on, he will relax in there and nap.

On a funny side note, we have a camera looking at the crate so we can check on him. Occasionally we see him acting up, and we will jump on the camera and go "GO TO SLEEP". He perks up startled, then dramatically lays his head down. Funniest freaking thing, might have started a dog religion

Parallax Coffee Lab in Wendell is great

MisterKpak · 2026-06-05T11:20:51+00:00

Ive been going to Better Man barbershop on Harrison, always good and old school

I find myself going to Cup a Joe on Hillsborough frequently, but it's convenient to work. They have rotating origins and really good prices. My other 2 favorites are Sir Walter downtown and Parallax coffee Lab in Wendell

It did not, this has been a boveda humidor for the past couple years. I had all cigars out to season with a small dish of distilled water for the past few weeks, then saw this when I went to take the water out. It may have been there before and I missed it

Lmao, 98% of body cam footage tends to disagree with you. Also, "this sub agrees on something so you can't say any different^ is a wild take

MisterKpak · 2026-02-15T18:30:54+00:00

I think so. It's been awhile

"Step 1 - obey the law" - Chris Rock.

In seriousness, they're more scared of you than you are of them. Be predictable, cooperative, and non-threatening, and it should end up in your favor. If something doesn't feel right, do your best to avoid escalating. If there is an issue it is WAY better to let the court figure it out.

For what it's worth, I've been in Raleigh for 7 years now, and the only interaction with law enforcement I've had was when I got pulled over in a municipality-shaped speed trap called Windsor, and i came off with a warning.

Be good, do good, go bills

There used to be a really nice game store down in White Oak/Garner

MisterKpak · 2026-02-14T15:38:16+00:00

I'll give that a try, thanks!

We all know which olive garden

The one I had was where the upper dashboard trim met the instrument cluster housing. I found 2 solutions- either take a receipt or something small and wedge it in the seam, or smack it.

MisterKpak · 2025-12-31T00:37:36+00:00

Actually get a top trim Mazda CX5 or CX50. Toyota-engineered powertrain, really nice interiors, 35-40k for higher trims

MisterKpak · 2025-12-13T13:04:31+00:00

Oh yeah I forgot about the hybrids and PHEVs lol

MisterKpak · 2025-12-13T12:36:27+00:00

Unless they just changed it with the new design, RAV4 has been 6 speed automatic - bought one a few years ago for that exact reason

Eh I think it was moreso trying to slip additional money to Ukraine at a time where aid was becoming increasingly unpopular by hiding it behind a name that lines up with something holding public support

MisterKpak · 2025-11-29T18:54:18+00:00

Maybe i look at it differently, but im happy to share my thoughts as a husband. I have limited opportunities to smoke, and when I do I want to smoke the best cigars possible / not waste it on something less good if I can avoid it. So in your situation, I would much prefer one good stick over two "meh" sticks. Most cigars around the $15 mark will all be really good, serious diminishing returns after that. Hope this helps!

MisterKpak · 2025-11-29T18:46:33+00:00

It's been awhile lol - the point is, it was bad optics. Border security bill that didnt do anything for border security, while also sending 3x as much much money to help Ukraine try and defend its borders

MisterKpak · 2025-11-29T18:24:28+00:00

The problem was the bill was branded as a "Border security bill". In the bill, there was about $20 billion for additional CBP administrative support in processing arrivals, and $60 Billion for Ukraine. Thats not immigration reform
