I Fell Off the Wagon

[haparnold]

I have a lot of tobacco. My cellaring goal of having enough tobacco to smoke twice a week for the next 50 years was long ago achieved. I haven't made a serious purchase in over a year, just a tin here or there.

And today, for no good reason, I just bought 2.5 pounds of tobacco before my first cup of coffee. Personally, I blame y'all. Maybe it's because I gave up meat and alcohol for Lent, so tobacco is my only indulgence lately.

So I fell off the wagon. The good news is, TAD is a pretty good affliction to have!

I know the feeling!

It happens. Pick up a few cigars and see what happens.

Thank God, I thought this was going to be one of those, "I fell off the wagons, drank six bottles of whisky, stole a police car, and jumped a train" sort of posts. Those always make me inadequate for not drinking.

I'm glad your sober and just falling off the wagon to help support the tobacco cartels.

I'm in the grip of the gateway drug already. Definitely don't want to mess with the hard stuff!

Just walk beside the wagon til someone is looking and jump on and smile.smoking twice a week? just add a couple more bowls a week and no one will be the wiser

There’s a wagon? Seriously, this place is the best kind of support group. They will support your TAD, PAD, TNTD, and all of the other acronyms until you have nary a dime in the bank or a cubic inch in the cellar.

Hopefully you’ll let us know what dragged you off the wagon, though.

Now you have to find a young pipe smoker to bequeath your remaining tobacco if it outlasts you. Otherwise it would probably get shuffled into the dumpster.

I am a young pipe smoker! Just a tender youth at 27.

If any of you older smokers are looking for a beneficiary, I might know a guy...

Lent is over in a few days! You almost made it!

I know how you feel. I’ve already spent more than I would have liked to this month on tobacco and a new pipe, and I’ve got a shopping cart with 4lbs of bulk Virginia’s that I’m trying to convince myself I don’t need to add to the cellar right now.

Now is not the time for hesitation. The August of our doom deem is approaching, and the shadows cast long and large upon us. Buy, buy, buy... buy as if this is the last chance you will have... because it might be.

That last sale on C&D blends knocked me right off the wagon. Don’t. Need. More.

But I did it anyway and I’m not sorry. Those C&D blends are tasty dammit.

More likr enablers than a support group...?

It's got to be Easter somewhere. Right? Anyway, I have the same affliction.

 

[haparnold]

Lent is over in a few days! You almost made it!

I've given up meat several years with no problem, and I've given up alcohol before with no problem. Giving up both was... a little rough. Thank goodness we're in the last week!

 

[Grangerous]

I think ? I’m good. TAD isn’t an issue, but.. I had a good run of PAD this year.

I hear you, I gave up coffee and Sunday is looking pretty good.

Not trying to burst your bubble but its up in the air as to whether the tobacco will still be good after 50 years. You might have to up your dosage to 4 times per week ?

Sometimes you have to treat yourself, enjoy!
