This is what I was really trying to say. I am glad my underlying vibe was not too subtle, and it probably helps that pipe smokers are eclair avoidant.
In all seriousness, I get what you mean about threads becoming saturated with posts before you can put in your $0.02. I often read through threads after responding to the OP and realize that my response was redundant.
Well, youre in a hobby that goes back hundreds of years. Any one smoking a pipe once the internet came to be probably shared their advise and opinions. Id say don't be discouraged but also don't hold the idea that your opinions are unique lol. Its just the nature if the hobby as old as ours.
It's page 2, so time to post memes, right?
@mortonbriar I don't have an answer to your questions, but I finally realized whom your profile picture reminds me of!

If you say the same thing or a similar thing to others in a thread it just adds weight to that assertion.
I’m sure the noobs would appreciate a bit of redundancy when they ask What should I smoke next?

I second the D&R, as keeping lit can be a struggle at first, but these dry-ish affordable bags seem to burn really well, and have easy to pick out, uncomplicated flavor
Yersh that's mean. I tried a few of the d&r but they all smelled and tasted the same. A mix between shelled corn and malt.
May want to get your smeller and tongue checked out by a professional, they seem like they might need a tune-up. While all D&R blends are delivered with next to zero moisture in the bag/tin, there is a definite and clear difference between Ryback, with its DFK and pepper, versus Two Timer’s straight toasted burley, versus Rimboché with its musty Perique-forward notes.
oh great doctor, could you tell me why a blend that has alot of "oriental" not latakia, has the ability to completely lose all flavor whatsoever on me?
or tell me where the "sour" notes in jocks mixture come from
See my earlier reply.
PS—The doctor you want is called an "otolaryngologist", aka an "ENT".
Ngl, I have struggled with this dilemma myself as well.
Just means I gotta pump my "Online time" numbers up tho I guess haha
I've noticed some new members come in hot, then fizzle out or get time out in 2 months (including a member in this thread).
Then it seems regulars fade away after about 2-3 years. And some come back from the fog.
Others tend to be off my radar due to the ignore feature (which makes this forum much better). However, I recently noticed most of the people I ignored are no longer members.

DRY YOUR TOBACCO!
Same for me. I think for many of us pipe smoking is a solitary activity, it's just not done much in public or in social situations. And for those newer to the activity, many probably don't have people they could ask about it. I'm happy to have the connection with people here. I only know one person irl who smokes a pipe.
Oriental flavors are extremely mild. Getting them overly heated will flash the flavor right away.
The interaction between the Latakia and the Virginias.
Can’t tell without seeing if he’s sporting the Run DMC Adidas sweats.
