    Peterson Iora Series

    I just bought two Petersons barely a week or two ago... Not sure they total to $240 but I enjoy them... From now on I just save my money and stick to limited runs instead of buying a shiny every time I open the web browser.

    Balkans... Rubber Tire?

    Ever since I became a V-word I have trained myself to like 100% of the flavors I get my hands on, things I absolute abhorred not long before. Anise and dill were my last bastions, I actually just ate anise tonight in one of my favorite stews of all time which uses an Uyghur spice blend. I do...

    Balkans... Rubber Tire?

    I have been enjoying them. I imagine it takes some people a while to enjoy them but I have been drinking straight espressos for years now, sometimes I have a light, fruity roast, other times I have a dark Colombian that puts hair on my chest with every sip. Luckily for me, it's mostly the smell...

    Was Just Told I'm going to Lose my Tongue

    At least if I lose my tongue, nobody will have to listen to me. Now I need to figure out how to get finger cancer so you guys don't have to either.

    not sure I've ever seen spruce, all the trees around me were replaced with concrete. sometimes the landscape coconut trees try to attack me by dropping one.

    Was Just Told I'm going to Lose my Tongue

    This is why I am saying, if it causes cancer, SAY IT. Not just that it contains nicotine. Make the label work, scare people accurately and more efficiently. Otherwise, take it off. I can surmise pipe smoking does not add to my life, without a label about nicotine.

    Was Just Told I'm going to Lose my Tongue

    It’s a quandary from what you said: they’re all the same. Why not give them the same label… easy and convenient. No extra government funding needed to create a 10 word sentence. Reuse the one that works. Not more labels, just the right one. Sorry.

    Was Just Told I'm going to Lose my Tongue

    Why does pipe tobacco only have a label saying it contains nicotine but not a surgeon general warning that it causes cancer ?

    Was Just Told I'm going to Lose my Tongue

    I do not have the proof nor studies on hand but I was certain I read that marijuana smoke is not carcinogenic based on recent studies. The whole gen of hippies and entire population of Colorado and California would be dead by now. If this is true I am curious about the mechanism of the smoke...

    Was Just Told I'm going to Lose my Tongue

    This is not something I disagree with nor has anything to do with what I’ve said about laser beams - cue Austin Powers.

    Was Just Told I'm going to Lose my Tongue

    We’ve been shooting DNA with laser beams since we were cavemen? As harmless as GMOs might be I find this to be a bit asinine in the same light.

    Was Just Told I'm going to Lose my Tongue

    Are there any studies on the carcinogenic nature of pure tobacco leaf? All the studies I find are about cigarettes. The other thing I’d like to know is how tobacco smoke differs from marijuana smoke. Not the unique chemical makeup, but the qualities of smoke itself in any form. From personal...

    Was Just Told I'm going to Lose my Tongue

    I need to ask the doc if they can turn me into a GMO noodle by sewing my appendages to my body and shooting me with laser beams to alter my DNA. I identify as a GMO noodle. I am not smart enough to know about GMO’s. But I do know organic foods (foods that lack carcinogenic topical applications)...

    Was Just Told I'm going to Lose my Tongue

    Title edited. See Rule 9. Noob pipe smoker here. Do you have to deal with this time of harassment often? It was my aunt... She's a complicated person that enjoys GMOs, pesticides, putting scolding food into plastic containers, taking pills to cure everything and sitting for 16 hours a day...

    How Can People Taste Anything Without Retrohaling?

    Are Tobacco Samples a Thing?

    I find the 2oz for $1-$4 to be a sample as a noob… not sure I could understand a tobacco in a bowl or two. The more I smoke something the more I understand it.

    How Can People Taste Anything Without Retrohaling?

    I am smoking PS17 English Luxury as we speak. It’s the only blend that hasn’t scorched my nose on the way out and is utterly pleasant and delicious. Not sure if my nose is now used to it or it’s the blend.

    I believe this saying is from Morocco? I have a tagine I use often.

    How Can People Taste Anything Without Retrohaling?

    I remember in a video I watched recently, they had once worn a blindfold with their nose pinched and took a bite of something. They were asked whether it was a red or green apple. They couldn't figure out which type of apple it was. It was an onion.

    Ayurvedic Tongue Scraper

    Hmm, that's good then. I've never seen one at any of the dentists I've been to. I was always told to brush my tongue and a few toothbrushes I've owned had those bristles on the back, but I don't think anything works as particular good as this simple device.
