How to Avoid Bad Coloration?

[jpmcwjr]

Exactly! I love my filters, the dirtier the better, right?

I buy them a pristine white then, dirty them up ... all by my lonesome self.

Yup when you dirty er, color it up your own way, perfection. But someone else's?? Not likely.

half the fun is watching it color.

I'm thinking our considered responses have fallen on deaf ears. Where is the OP in all of this? Lack of interest? Hurt feelings? Just stirring the pot? Just askin'.

he wanted an answer that didn't exist. Some people can be satisfied with that and some people don't get along with reality very well.

Never heard that one before and personally haven't noticed it beyond breaking them in.

That's why, way back when, the wealthy used to hire people to smoke and color their meers for them...

Don't see why, I've already ran 12 smokes through the owl I received Thursday. I just don't see them as being any better when heavily colored, they still smoke the same once the chalk taste clears. This one picked up most of its color in the first couple of months.

All of mine smoke pretty much the same regardless of coloration. I think a lot of having a deeply colored meer is about bragging rights...

Nope, just reading the good advice and laughing at the jokes. I didn't have anything else to add, so I kept my trap shut.

Most responders to posts appreciate an appearence now and then of the OP. We like to know we're helping, confusing or, at the least entertaining.

 

[UrsaMinor]

I feel confused and entertained as a general rule, so don't worry too much about those

 

[UrsaMinor]

But where are my manners? This thread has been helpful and entertaining, to say the least, and I appreciate everyone's responses.
