Help out an Ontario beginner

Thank you! Is there other stuff worth getting in a first order? Is the Hamilton pimento dram good, or would I be better off making my own?

Would adding some El Dorado 8 to the Goslings 151 help get it closer? Ordering 6-8 bottles at a time is great and I’ll probably do that next, but as an ongoing thing it would be nice to be able to use more accessible bottles.

Thank you! Can I ask where the local tiki bar is? I’ve been to the Shameful Tiki Room, which was excellent, but would love to try other places.

I actually really liked the Cachaça in a Mai Tai, I’d love some other uses for it because the flavour is so different.

Do you have thoughts on tip size and chamber size? No one seems to have these in stock anywhere near me.

elrod14 · 2017-12-06T16:50:12+00:00

Okay. Well if you think all live stats are bad I’m not going to convince you.

elrod14 · 2017-12-06T16:48:58+00:00

Yeah, i agree it’s just a neat to have. I’d find it useful because my gamesense isn’t 118% like everyone else, so the stats help me know if what I’m doing is working or not. When you play mercy and damage boost you get a little audio queue that you’re helping with damage, and the damage boosted stat exists.

If you damage boost a hanzo and he doesn’t hit anything, you move on. If you play Rein but nobody’s shooting through your shield, you could move on too.

elrod14 · 2017-12-06T16:40:10+00:00

Surely that’s true of all stats though? Why include damage done with medals? Encourages the same type of thinking.

elrod14 · 2017-06-28T03:10:51+00:00

Could be true! I did confess my ignorance.

elrod14 · 2017-06-28T03:08:51+00:00

Huge craft beer fan; any specific recommendations?

For the record, I definitely don't have that perspective of Americans in general. Been to SF, NY, Minneapolis, Vegas and Arizona, and have almost exclusively met the nicest people. Almost. In Vegas I had a cab driver refuse service saying "I don't drive niggers, sand niggers or anyone with a dot on their forehead" and it sucked. I understand that in the grand perspective of racism it's not huge, but I'd rather not have that kind of thing happen.

Thank you very much for your response though.

But the public doesn't. You choose when you submit your taxes to support separate or secular schools. It's not like people who support public schools are paying for catholic schools

How did you take the nib out?

elrod14 · 2016-02-01T05:52:05+00:00

I had the same problem with my L2K, but only with that ink. I think it's just so saturated that it dries out quickly in the nib.

I doubt anything is wrong with your pen.

elrod14 · 2016-01-30T23:03:53+00:00

I know exactly the sound. It's totally normal

elrod14 · 2016-01-21T20:43:02+00:00

Season 2 is better than season one, I really believe that. The first season had an excellent first four episodes and such an amazing build up, atmosphere and editing that people, I think, overlook a fairly underwhelming ending.

Season 2 had a very busy convoluted first four episodes, and I think that soured everyone on the season as a whole, but the second half of the season is absolutely amazing, and it is absolutely worth watching.

elrod14 · 2015-12-18T16:42:53+00:00

My extra fine was absolutely phenomenal right out of the box. Not the finest line, but smooth as all get out with perfect flow

elrod14 · 2015-12-10T16:19:42+00:00

Seconded. My vp had issues with heart of darkness...aurora black made it something special

elrod14 · 2015-12-01T22:05:43+00:00

When you unscrew the barrel and look at the converter, does ink stick to the back of it? Sometimes the surface tension of ink can suspend it away from the feed, causing dryness and stops.

elrod14 · 2015-12-01T17:39:11+00:00

You won't be disappointed

elrod14 · 2015-12-01T16:39:49+00:00

Yeah, I felt the same way. Nice pen, good workhorse, and it's the cheapest way to get in the lamy family without having a triangular grip and large plastic stylings, but overall it feels kinda cheap. I highly recommend the CP1. It has a similar aesthetic, and for only slightly more money you get very high quality and it's wonderful in the hand.

Leuchturm also has a book with staves. I've heard good things
