    The Rise of the 7 Ounce Tin

    Absolutely correct. The term for it is "shrinkflation" and Covid really accelerated its use in every industry. Remember when gatorade came in 32oz bottles? How about 11.2oz beers? It's everywhere...and it's annoying.

    Guide Me on Cobs

    Can't go wrong with any of them IMO. I like the Morgan for a shorter smoke. I like the black original stems the best because they are slightly softer than the acrylic.

    Anyone Play Video Games?

    I used to play a ton of Rocket Arena 3 (Quake III mod) and Team Fortress 2. I haven't had much time for games in the past few years because I have a toddler running around. I've tried to play a few times here and there but I'm so rusty that I get salty and rage quit haha.

    The Changing of the Blend

    I'm only 9 years into the journey so I'll leave this to the older gentlemen. From what I've read, of the blends that still exist, there are many that bare a resemblance in name only. This can be attributed to change of manufacturer, toppings/sauce, and overall degradation in the quality and...

    Nasty Lemon Tang

    Sounds rather nice to me. Then again, I'm one of those weirdos who likes Grousemoor and other heavily "essenced" blends.

    Peter Stokkebye Luxury Twist Flake

    I remember you talking about "Cosmic Flake" in a different thread. In my last order I got 4oz LTF and 4oz LNF and layered them up in a jar for a nice rest.

    Back From Air Wing Exercise

    Thank you for your service. I've seen the incredible focus it takes to land one of those things on a carrier. Have any fun stories about that sort of thing?

    Something For Me to Think About

    I think it's a right of passage to expose oneself to as many blends as possible initially. As time goes by we are able to zero-in on our preferred tastes and realize that pipe tobacco is comparable to Taco Bell. It's all made from the same base ingredients just in different ratios and...
