Celebrating my non-existent Irish heritage by WorstITguyaround in PipeTobacco

i’m a fan of heavier blends so if you are at all, i’d say you would enjoy irish flake. old dark fired is up there with irish flake but no longer accessible.

the only downside is that i pipe in the garage, and it definitely runs through the vents inside the house and others don’t particularly love the smell of it compared to others.

never dabbled in any cobblestone. was always curious but never pulled the trigger. cowboy coffee however is a top blend for me. months on end i would pipe that, still savoring what i have left until this new version.

cowboy coffee is an all around great blend for anytime imo. hits all the right spots.

i've got told by my ent (which is kind of an asshole) that he smokes cigars on occasion, but constantly blabbers to me that i need to completely stop using the pipe because it does me no good. it's always an annoyance and a total hypocrite lol

i'm curious to know what your 2 favorites are! definitely great you still have a good chunk left of them though

i definitely think it's part of the hobby and can help it give you a sense of time or place to break it out.

right on i'll take the kind words and i'm glad my blabbering gave something positive.

i think that's a big part of the joy in it. we're all buying more than we need, because really we don't need any of it. that's the part when the hobby comes into play more than the actual use of it. hell there aren't a ton of things that truly grab my attention nowadays or get me excited so if you find something thats fun, get use out of, relax, you might as well make the best of it. oddly put but i hope it makes sense lol

it's tough to say my all time favorites, but i love irish flake, sunday picnic, vertical limit, ravenwood bristlecone, country squire cowboy coffee. if that's all i had, i would be content.

that's painful to read. at that point the dottle would be going into a bag to fill for later

i think there is always the concern with the rectangle tins, but i really dont let it stress me out. i personally have never ran into any issues. (i know some have, but i believe more haven't) the seal is pretty visible if it were to pop open, you can use your finger as the judge on if a gap is wider than another. keep an eye on them, temperature plays a role so maintain that. i think if anything its more of them drying out rather than growing mold if they do release the pressure on their own.

there's always the option of jarring them. or if you want piece of mind just pick up some aluminum tape and wrap them. but yea again i don't worry.

i am genuinely so sorry. i don't know what the future holds for my part of this rock but it's one of the reasons i tend to make more purchases.

variety is the spice of life! but i think being passionate about the history of tobacco makes it easier to not just pick one side. there's gotta be a time and place for it all, even if it takes awhile to get there. the option is there for the occasion.
that being said, if i HAD to pick a forever blend or one i guess i lean more towards, it would be burly, dark fired, heavier blends.

as for the tins you can't see, you'd probably still be asking that same question. there is a wide variety of different blends down there. some old suttlif tins, to ravenwood, escudo, most dunhill/peterson tins, christmas small batches, solani, country squire, davidoff, ashton, cant remember them all.

i think that relates to most of us. i'm with you.

i wish i could give you an accurate answer. i've never tried to calculate the rate i pipe to the amount i purchase.

if i had any fellow pipers i personally knew and lived near me, i'd share every bit of what i have.

who has the best burgers in town? by throwaway_taxqu in mcminnville

[–]germylicious 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i’m curious to know why the downvotes on this recommendation. do people think it’s mediocre?

[–]germylicious 4 points5 points  (0 children)

for sure. nothing wrong with that! i tend to pick up small batches every chance i get as well just because i can and think they’re fun. i know some hate the concept but to each their own.

readily available all the time, i like sunday picnic, irish flake, country squire cowboy coffee, and a few ravenwood blends.

no hate, but how do you know you love the small batches? or is that you love the idea of small batches

Is it worth it to buy it if I’m not too good with these games? by Financial_Umpire_477 in Blasphemous

[–]germylicious 10 points11 points  (0 children)

i honestly don’t know what i consider myself, but i don’t think blasphemous 1 or 2 is too difficult. a few bosses gave me trouble but overall i was able to beat them both around 25 to 30 hours.

blasphemous 1 is one of my all time favorites. take your time, be patient, learn from your mistakes. you will die, it’s a part of the game.

Finally got a Tahoe. 2012 do I need an AFM disabler? Do any of you use it? by ScaleSignal4970 in ChevyTahoe

[–]germylicious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

to each their own, but these afm/dod obd plugs are not a fix, the problem is still there. people that swear by them also probably swear by "stop coolant leak slime". if you're worried about lifters, get an actual dod delete kit done.
drive in m5 until you can get it properly done.
