    Language It Is A Funny Thing

    An antacid is very different then an ant acid, yet grammatically the only difference is a single space.

    People Who Can't Control their Dogs...

    Are lame. The dog deserves better. Just saw a person that made me think poor pooch your idiot human is going to get you in trouble because they haven't figured out that you can't argue a dog out of acting up! Just had to vent.

    My Problem With The X-Files

    after only a few episodes Scully stops seeming rational when she says "there has to be a rational explanation". Actually lady after the stuff you've seen the rational explanation is probably something super natural. Also anyone else get bugged when you're playing a RPG and they have an NPC...

    You Guys are Great

    I just checked and there are only four members I ignore here. That means the rest of you don't say things that give me a headache resisting the urge to try and explain why you're an idiot. Just saying if you're reading this pat yourself on the back.

    Tapered Pipe Cleaners

    Accidentally bought tapered pipe cleaners and well it's a happy accident. The small side is great for sticking down the stem and draft hole (I think that's what it's called) and the wider end is just wonderful for swabing the mortise and folding over to semiscrub the chamber. From now on I am a...

    Just Bought a Fancier Tamper

    and I feel it was totally worth it. Easier to find and more comfy in my pocket then a basic pipe tool. I got a purple 8deco tamper and I am now a convert. It has a better weight then a basic one it doesn't flop open looks nicer and the pick slash scraper works great at both. It doesn't look like...

    Regular Rotation?

    It's funny the two things people seem to have going on in their pipe tobacco ingestion schemes would be a big wide cellar and jumping around from blend to blend or the main blend and occasionally smoking a few other things. What I wonder is how many people are more like me. Where they have a...

    Mixture No. 79

    Wow just got a tub of this and haven't smoked it yet. That's in about two hours. But man the whiskey smell is intense. Sure there is clearly vanilla and anise but if it was a person they'd sound like a youtube video at half speed (seriously listen to some serious video at half speed).

    Neat Little Site with Yokai.

    Yokai.com - https://yokai.com/ I know this isn't for everyone but I like this site a lot. Like going here and clicking on the random button. Then going down a rabbit hole of reading about more of the links on the bottom of the page. I thought at least a few other people here would dig this resource.

    You Know You Have Been Here Too Long...

    when you consider someone a newbie when they've reached the top tier membership level. Actually more like when there are many members like that. :)

    Flake Trick

    Oh here is a trick that I don't use but it works if you have trouble getting a flake to burn. Use a starter. What is a starter something like five brothers that burns easily. Can get it started and going. If you're having issues it's worth trying. You can also just let a Va ribbon cut dry to...

    Great Band Name

    Takiyasha hime | Yokai.com - https://yokai.com/takiyashahime/ if you go to the link it says that the translation of this yokais name is “waterfall demon princess”. Someone needs to name their band that.

    Sorry/waterflushing

    Trided it and semi fan. I don't like the pipe aeing that nuetral (personal taste) but great for just right before a deep clean is needed. Sorry but i tried it and it is ok. Also left behind a subtle stank that alcohol clears out. Like a light saponification

    Priceless Browsing just a Thought.

    It would be interesting if you could browse online retailers with the prices turned off. Interesting to see how it might effect your buying habits and taste. Also you could at least at first just see how much you like that pipe before looking at the price tag. Just a thought. Probably not worth...

    Capstan

    Have been smoking this all week. And while I don't love it. I really like it a lot. It's a very agreeable smoke. Kind of like a slightly higher end codger blend in my opinion. For one it smokes really easily for a flake. In fact I've been smoking it in my pipes that don't normally like flakes...

    Not quite a sell thread.

    I was thinking of selling one of my pipes. It's my pegasus meer which I don't have good pictures of. The fact is I don't use it and I honestly have trouble enjoying smoking a pipe that cost that much. Which it's funny my first 100 dollar pipe was like that for a few weeks. I guess I figured I...
