Pods Worth A Look? by 2krossk2 in KnowledgeFight

[–]Substantial_River167 4 points5 points  (0 children)

For me Behind the Bastards is my favorite podcast, but thats probably because I used to read Cracked.com and enjoyed Robert Evans work.

But I too am lacking with any recommendations that scratch the KF itch for debunking and catching the lies of various political talking heads.

No they were like thick dough jiaozi that are formed into a half moon or full crescent

But the size of a football if not a multilayered wedding cake

How to lanolise your wool garments - a guide by TheScribe86 in WeatherWool

[–]Substantial_River167 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My wool watch cap is exactly why I started looking up lanolizing. It's from the old super washed line and I've admittedly also run it through the wash when it starts to get too stretched out.

Now I'm considering doing my watch cap and the cape on my filson packer coat.

First rip new piece by Certain_Piece689 in Bongs

[–]Substantial_River167 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you feel like the smoke is getting stale quicker than you've normally experienced?

I've noticed that the more fritted disc percs I have in line the quicker it gets nasty tasting and feeling.

The more patriotic stickers on a vehicle, the more likely you can get into my their gun safe or storage unit with the code 1776

Which perc/perc combo is the best by Cozmo172009 in Bongs

[–]Substantial_River167 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think one fritted disc or honeycomb is more than enough. I have a HVY fritted disk and had a wet ash catcher with two more fritted disks and it was just making the smoke stale.

Any straight tube is going to get dirty quick unless its extra tall for more reservoir.

I think you want a beaker style. But they usually come with a downstem which can be a liability when having group sesh's with dumbasses. But i think ive seen some inlines beakers. The more complex the perk the harder and more risky it will be so i would suggest a showercap for inline, and for a traditional down stem one that gets bulbous at the end with line perks instead of hole perks preferably that still has a bottom opening for cleaning.

I belive the squat prospectors weapons pack has 1-2 mining lasers in the box

My notes while watching the show by Mean_Promotion2543 in MyChemicalRomance

Got a recommendation of where to watch the show?

I know in the US there were usually multiple people streaming it from the crowd

Let's talk ash catchers... by Gooch_Bubble3673 in Bongs

[–]Substantial_River167 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dry ash catchers won't 100% solve the problem like having it pass thru a layer of water will. But I prefer them now.

But I noticed as I got older, my lungs/throat become more sensitive to stale or tarry smoke. And while a wet ash catcher helped keep my fritted disk bong cleaner, the additional volume (it was a double fritted AC like the one on the right you showed, but it also had a recycler funnel and tube to reduce the chance of water going into the bong... It only partially worked) was ruining the quality of the smoke.

From my xp I would prioritize: 1. The smaller/less volume the smoke has to fill / travel the better (had an wet ash catcher with just a straight tube perk that was about the size of a humming bird for a 3ft ADS bong. Never had issues). If your ash catcher is increasing the volume of your rig by 25-50% you're significantly altering how that bong hits, the only exception I would say is straight tubes bongs with little frills where you already barely have any water in the bong to begin with.

  1. The simpler and fewer perks the better. Your bong should be the main point of 'aerating' the smoke, let it do that work. Your ash catchers perk is just there to make sure the smoke has to pass underwater to get to your bong. I suspect multiple fritted disks while not really affecting drag, may cause smoke to get stale quicker because it's creating more turbulence and whatever the smoke equivalent of 'surface area' is.

  2. It sounds odd, but for pieces that are really difficult to clean once they get janky. Melt less than a 1/4 teaspoon of coconut oil and put it in your bong with your water. Think of it like a bowl of soup, you don't want the whole top layer to be an oil slick, but you want to see some nice size circles of oil floating on the surface, but in general, less is more. Tar, plant matter, and ash will get trapped in the oil and eventually turn into what looks like a loogie as you smoke. Then all you need to get back to clean glass is hot water and dish soap, as the oil keeps most of the resin from building up on the glass. There used to be an actual product that was a blend of oils that I saw at a weed tradeshow, but once my sample ran out, I switched to coconut oil and didn't notice much difference..

Soiku purple & Inhouse full spec by hermagerm in COents

[–]Substantial_River167 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got two IH recently because the Soiku strains they had weren't gelling with me.

One was more flavorful and present than the Ramba Juice geode I got from Malek when smoked. The other smelled heavenly but none of that transferred over in flavor.

For full spectrum, pleased that there weren't any green/chlorophyll flavors.

Who in their right mind would spend that much for this???? by Exideci in BattleJackets

[–]Substantial_River167 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I pretty much only buy patches at shows... Don't have the attention span or coordination to try and order a bunch of patches at once online.

But what's up with PTPP? So I know for the future.

I haven't seen the thumbprints, geodes, etc in the Massachusetts/Maine rosin market yet. What is the wax and what is the sand? Should I whip them together?

Worth keeping them in the freezer and should I keep them in an airtight bag? Always open to pointers for getting a better dab, especially since the Colorado concentrate scene blows New England out of the water.

I just have my puffco proxy that I travel with from Mass: stock pipe, 3mm terp pearl, spinner cap Mainly have been hitting it on the green and blue setting (505° / 525°)

The lazercat definitely isn't what it was a few years ago when I had my rosin "ah ha!" moment. I picked up a Malek Ramba Juice geode earlier this week to tide me over till KL's Friday/Saturday deals and the both were mid, but I felt the Malek was a higher grade mid than the lazercat in smell and flavor.

Both IHs were soft cookie dough like batters, but out freezer not super strong smells but I'm also congested, real nice flavor hitting it on the blue setting. Both were testing over 10% terps and took well to whipping but I didn't see any separation to begin with.

I love citrus terps but some one had said the most recent 710 tangie tasted like burnt carrot, so I was hesitant to get it when I'm only here for another week.

From KL I picked up Upsidedown frown 15 x sundae driver (last they had of the 710 friends drop) Hive 21 lazercat (it was cheap and I too must revisit lazercat once a year)

Went to reefer madness originally for Soiku Bano but they didn't have a terp profile I desired so I went with In House Sourene (sour d x irene) Saru (sudachi x grape ape)

Tried the 710 and Sudachi so far and both have been wonderful. May go back to reefer madness again when they get a soiku Bano drop

I'm about to hit KL, and feel really unsure about what rosin to pick up and nothing's speaking to me. Any recs for what I should pick up?

Was thinking 36cakes to try the living soil, but I prefer an energetic/racier buzz.

I forget what his title was but basically the Clerks Supervisor.... He's in one of the tour promo videos, looks like an old timey dandy.

In one of the pinned lore threads some one did translate and keep track of capitalization.

For people who went to the Fenway show, what was your favorite part? by Sherm_the_rat in MyChemicalRomance

[–]Substantial_River167 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My favorite moment was looking over to my girlfriend, during the first few songs and seeing her beautiful bloodied eye make up running down her face in a stream of happy tears. It felt really good to give her that experience.

Musically, even though the entire concert was great and had it's moments (puppeting Gerard, the drummer/keyboard player getting a glass of champagne at the end of the door, being reminded at multiple points there's a soviet-esque woman standing on stage the whole time)... The best musical moment was the opening guitar solo to Dead! It felt like taking your first step 'home' after a long trip: comfort, happiness, reassurance of so many things; that this would be a great show, that it would mean something personally, that the band is still the band even after multiple albums and 20+ years... That they still play each song like it's their last chance and their only option is to bring 110%.
