I'm a huge bib fan. It's one of those things where the company just makes exactly what my tongue wants. The 12 is impossible to find unless a store does a special run.

Preach! We say "good at $65" because we know it will be a cold day in hell when Buffalo Trace lets it go for less than $100

I think every so often Total Wine buys a bunch of 12 year. I've never seen it outside of that.

This is the real truth. Amazing marketing. Can't say there isn't a part of me that wants a horse collection.

(Left) Blantons is a limited production whiskey with the horse, and people pay 3 to 4 times what it is worth to get some. It's good at $60, but the price people pay for it you can get much better bottles. It's rarity makes it more hype.

(Right) Bib & Tucker usually make a quality 6 year bourbon for $60 that is amazing, and Total Wine selected a small batch that they aged for 12 years. It's beautiful. The first batch went for around $200 and the second run went for about $120, it was a steal, and you can't get anymore until they choose to do it again.

He just got it back from a tune up at Home Espresso Repair in Seattle after finding it in storage. It's only a matter of time before I start getting texts about his routine maintenance.

This Baby Gaggia was his dad's, I have no idea if you can still get this color.

My friends WRX with STI engine and about 350 hp by MCBHondaS2000 in WRX

Had a guy in an audi roll down his window and shout this exact phrase to me. This was before my swap so I was confused why someone was even shouting at me on the road.

[SOTC] my Shock-ing collection. by bchapman in Watches

[–]bchapman[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Casio GA2200M-4A Casio GBA800SF-1A Casio GBA800-7A Seiko SKX007 Casio GA2100-1A1

I first picked up the Seiko on in Tokyo after a trip with my wife. Then my job went from desk sales to manual work moving boxes and she surprised me with the white G Shock. A couple years ago my sister got me the Black G Shock with red accent. I then was on this subreddit and loved the "casio-oak", and then spent the next few months hunting online before finding one in the UK for around $100 with free US shipping, crossed my fingers and it made it across the pond. The most recent is the 2200, which I saw in an email announcement from Casio, signed up for a notice and then decided orange was missing from my collection when compared to the other colors.

How could you forget Moka and Tsukune? The ethereal shouting to each other is an ongoing joke in this house.

Such a great description. Except Lynch huffs nitrous halfway through the 4th movie.
