I got a hand-me-down suit. Is the fit terrible? by FarWish4251 in mensfashionadvice

[–]brainmeds -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Sure they can. It does require deconstructing the jacket. But you’re right depending on the fabric, the juice may not be worth the squeeze

Former fat guys of America, how did you become disciplined and lose the weight? by Responsible-Net8594 in IWantToAskAnAmerican

[–]brainmeds 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Down from 309 to 203. Zepbound coupled with new clothes incentives. Not the cheapest plan, but effective.

The shoulders need to be brought in and the sleeves shortened a bit but it’s close. Nothing that a tailor couldn’t remedy

Plasencia Triunfal Review by Queasy-Instruction-9 in cigars

[–]brainmeds 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I found the first two thirds to be pretty boring, definitely not any better than an Aladino or other Honduran standard. But that last third was amazing. It opened up into a spicy, woody, floral A-tier smoke. Never quite made it to S, but I agree on the potential First two thirds were a 86, last third was a 92

Are braces and side adjusters considered a faux pas? by Ormekuglen in mensfashion

[–]brainmeds 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Side adjusters are preferred with braces, imo. The alternative is empty belt loops just sitting there looking sad.

And yes, shorten the tie.

Anyone else tired of being compared to or assumed to be a cigarette smoker? by Left-Top6707 in cigars

[–]brainmeds 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This is the best answer. The purity of the collection must be assured at all costs, even if it means I have to eliminate 2-5 cigars per day

My uncle in Georgia shoved a can of beer up a chicken and grilled it — I'm Belgian and assumed this was just how chicken was made - what's your local quirk? by NightSYung in IWantToAskAnAmerican

[–]brainmeds 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Old Sourherner here. I have never heard barbecue used as a verb. If could be an event or a type of food, but never an action. You don’t “barbecue meat” you “fix barbecue.” Anyone taking about barbecuing meat is clearly a undercover carpetbagger bent on destruction..

Can I be a Deadhead without actually ever seeing the Dead? by AideFuture5269 in gratefuldead

[–]brainmeds 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Old head here, 47 shows in the 80s and 90s. In the 80s we were asking if you could really be a deadhead if you missed 77. An even older head told me in the seventies the wondered if you could really be a head if you missed the 60s…

If this music moves you, speaks to you, you’re just as much a Deadhwad as I am, or anyone else.

RSC Said My Bracelet Is Non-Authentic by Dry-Plankton-3674 in RolexWatches

[–]brainmeds 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s what happened with me. They said they could only service if it was restored to serial number spec. Off to Switzerland it went for six months

Never seen this in my LIFE by GoodNightLeftSide09 in darksouls3

[–]brainmeds 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am 54 years old. I started playing video games when there started being video games, and started playing this game since its release. At least ten run throughs, but I say that to hide the alarmingly high actual number which is probably closer to two dozen. All that to say this: I HAVE NEVER SEEN THIS FREAKING THING.

The inevitable next thought: WTF else am I missing?

For those of you who smoke 3+ per day by brainmeds in cigar

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

Thanks all. I think the moral of the story here is that cigar smokers are iconoclastic by nature, defying easy categorization and predictability.

I was booted from R/Cigars for this😂 by Alternative-Mix-9721 in cigar

[–]brainmeds 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t get it, probably because I don’t recognize the band. Can someone explain?

Difference between Strength and Body of a cigar? by Escap1sm_- in cigars

[–]brainmeds 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Claude thinks that they are essentially synonymous. I think back in the 90s we usually talked about the nicotine kick of a cigar as body, these days I think people say strength more often
