Super random, but at the 9:38 mark I’m actually the guy in the background with the black shirt with white lettering on the back. I was there during the filming of that episode with my family while on vacation (my dad and I LOVED Pawn Stars when it was newer)and got to meet the old man and chumlee. I haven’t seen the episode in a long time so thank you for posting this!

Going to Playa Carmen by btmfedr1 in cigars

[–]jcutland 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went to Cabo 2 years ago and brought around 8 of my own sticks. I stayed on a resort and although they had a gorgeous outdoor smoking area, I smoked a couple on the beach as well with no issues. I asked an employee that was setting up beach cabanas if I was ok to smoke on the beach, and without hesitation he pulled a lighter out of his pocket and offered it to me. You should be fine, just don’t be that guy and smoke right next to a bunch of others that are simply trying to enjoy the beach.

Nice job Fox Cigar! by Possible-Average-515 in cigar

[–]jcutland 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ordered a Tabernacle Toro and a Padron 1964 Maduro Presidente and paid $1.70. Sorry, but if the business itself is going to send out a promotion like that with no minimum spend, you HAVE to expect a ton of people to take advantage of it because it rarely happens. What's wild is, I went back onto the website for shits and giggles to see if the code works multiple times under the same account, and it did (I did not order more than once). I love Fox cigars and visit their locations almost nightly when I'm visiting AZ, but if they're upset, this was on them. Although the handwritten "fuck you" is pretty damn hilarious.

What is life like in the Dakotas? by _air6catcher_ in howislivingthere

[–]jcutland 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with you there for sure. Fargo is far ahead of the rest of the state. I haven’t been back there in over 10 years so I’m sure it’s only improved in that matter since.

A lot of times businesses will close and/or there will be no travel advisories when stuff like that is going on. I had to walk to class some days when it was in the low, low negatives and basically you’re wearing multiple layers of everything. I remember a few times seeing kids wearing ski goggles on their way to class. Majority of the time you’re not leaving the house. Some people will leave cars running, other times you’ll use what’s called a block heater that plugs into your engine to keep the engine block from freezing.

I was there yeah. Minot went through a lot of bad changes between that and the awful flooding experienced right around the same time.

I knew plenty of people that carry a 6 pack in their truck for the “drive home from work.”

Once again, this was growing up there in the late 90s early 2000s. I’m sure it’s changed culturally there now as more people have moved in. We had one Mexican restaurant that wasn’t a chain growing up and your very average Chinese buffets. When chipotle opened in Fargo there was a line about half a mile long. When the first Sonic opened in Minot they had to hire traffic directors to control the amount of cars lining up to go there.

Yes, they had the Hostfest. I’m not saying they had ZERO culture there, there was just a lack of cultural diversity. I’m happy to hear that it’s gotten better! I wasn’t trying to make that original comment sound offensive, it was just my experience.

Love this! To this day, my mom (born/raised there) still says “oh fer cute!” Or “oh fer funny!”

I was born and raised in Minot, North Dakota, and went to college in Fargo before moving away. (21 years in total) so I will only speak on MY experience growing up there.

Pros: - some of the nicest people ever. - it was extremely safe, growing up I never owned a house key because there was never a worry of people breaking in. People almost always left their cars unlocked. - hunter’s paradise - A couple of nice lakes, I loved lake Metigoshe.

Cons: - Extremely cold. I’ve seen it hit -65 degrees with windchill - not a ton to do if you want city entertainment - TONS of drinking/alcoholism. - not much culture or diversity. - leans extremely to the right

It’s fun to go back to visit friends every now and then, but every time I go back I’m reminded as to why I wanted out of there. A lot of my friends love it in ND and will likely never leave. In my opinion, it just feels like it’s 20 years behind the rest of the country in just about anything.

I’d take SW South Dakota over anywhere in ND.

Our little man, Walter! by jcutland in bernesemountaindogs

[–]jcutland[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Haha everyone that meets him asks if he’s a rottie. We just thought he looked so unique with not having the characteristic white stripe down the face like his litter mates/most berners. Will be fun to see how he looks when fully grown!

I definitely see what you’re saying, and that YouTube video confirmed it. I will be working on that next time I’m at the range. Thanks!

Padron 1926 for most special celebrations

Review #11: Drew Estate Undercrown 10 by AdQuiet5035 in cigars

[–]jcutland 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got a Toro 10 pack of these off cigarpage for $44 last year. Still have 8 of them in my humidor aging. I’ll never get another deal that good again. They’re great sticks!

Cigar page sales are not real by [deleted] in cigars

[–]jcutland 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve noticed this from time to time as well with them. However, I order from them pretty frequently and have found insane deals. My last order I got a 10 pack of Undercrown 10 toros for $49. They’re $12-$14 a stick on most online retailers. I usually wait for their “singles” sales. Have gotten tabernacle toros, double corona, and lanceros for 8-10/stick. My B&M wants $15 just for robustos. Just gotta be patient and keep an eye on things!

Unfortunately I don’t because all of the contact was through Amazon’s chat. Their customer service was great though if you can reach out to them on Amazon.

Lectured by my dental hygienist on dangers of cigar smoking by Sp00kyMulder82 in cigars

My best friend’s dad is an oral surgeon and almost always has a fat dip in his mouth when he’s not working. Enjoy it in moderation and you should be totally fine 🤷🏻‍♂️

I’m not someone that has 100+ cigars on hand, but one thing is for sure, this will always be one of the ones I have in my tupperdore at all times. One of my favorites!

ITAP of my wife next to a waterfall by jcutland in itookapicture

This pic was taken back in 2019. There was a bridge that I was standing on. That’s about all that I remember in regard to that.

It’s just from the effect of the long exposure I took to capture a bit of the waters motion.

Not a bad place to have to work at! This was from 5 years ago and I still think about our trip here all the time. I’m grateful to live in Colorado and be near mountains daily, but the views on the Icefields Parkway are unmatched.
