    ***What Are You Smoking, December 2024?***

    I'm too young to have ever experienced it alas, I bought the tin for a fiver from an antique shop so I could carry my tobacco in something that's not plastered in a garish health warning

    Planning return to piping with a change in direction.

    Solani aged burley flake is another one it's hard to get to bite and which I'd recommend

    Climate Change and Its Impact on Tobacco Quality

    the decline of quality in pursuit of profit and the degradation of the environment by a few enormous monopolies are inherently linked, it's that link that's a taboo to criticise among conservatives and liberals alike

    Climate Change and Its Impact on Tobacco Quality

    The idea that the current era of human civilisation could completely change as much of the face of the earth as it has, could destroy so many of the natural ecosystems that form the very basis for the regulation of our climate, and not have any impact, is one of willful ignorance. Every...

    Picking on Brits a Bit

    During the war? Certainly. Otherwise? That's complicated... in fact, my city lost him his seat in parliament. But now we're definitely straying into political territory.

    I think it's maybe more often used in a derogatory way down south, up here it very much depends on your emphasis. As the comedian Kevin Bridges once noted, it is also used in a classic Scottish threat: "I'll kick your cunt in" which, though it might surprise you, is very much unisex

    Picking on Brits a Bit

    you're one of those cunts who puts their guinness in the fridge aren't you... edit for yanks: "cunt" doesn't pack the same punch in Scotland, it can be used to mean "person" in colloquial speech, e.g. "somecunt put this guinness in the fridge"
