I just smoked tea in my pipe.

I now endorse it.

Indeed. Smoking in public is no longer a gentlemanly behavior. Though one may feel free to partake in the privacy of one's own domain. Perhaps in one's private gardens, where the experience may be tempered and enhanced by the fresh air and beauty of the surroundings.

I say. When you mentioned smoking not to be considered gentlemanly behaviour these days, I am sure you meant smoking what the working class calls "cigarettes" - I trust you are familiar with the concept. And while I agree on this point - the smell they produce is very much disturbing - I would say that a fine cigar or indeed a pipe, which predominantly emit an enjoyable aroma, is very much worthy to be perused by a gentleman even by today's standarts.

If a gentleman spends his time on a social gathering, it is obviously preferable to abide the host's wishes, but in the general public (mind you, not indoors) I feel that no one should wrinkle his or her forehead over a gentleman endorsing in smoking a pipe.

Now, to lead the discussion back to the topic at hand, has anyone else than the gentleman here >>702 had this or a similar experience? It is not that I do not trust this man, but I would rather have some second opinions on the matter before trying it myself - I would find it most disturbing if this should cause damage to my pipe, or even - may the gods forbid this - myself.

I attempted it quite a while ago with some Earl Grey. The loose leaf kind, not the reconstituted vomit in little bags.

It was like trying to smoke wood shavings, and tasted like a cavendish tobacco if you were to leave it exposed to the elements all summer long. In all, it wasn't an experience I'd enjoy repeating. At least it didn't ruin my pipe, but I wasted a good serving of tea with that smoke.

Good day gentlemen. On this day I wish to ask your preferred literature. While I love to indulge in a great book, I favor reading classic Gothic literature. I love books similar to Jane Eyre, and The Castle of Otranto.

Gents, what do you call a night?
No sex or illicit activities.

For me, it's:
-Bohren & Der Club of Gore (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PuKVDJXUQnc)
-Montecristo Cigar
-Macallan Scotch with ice
-Shadowy, dark building silhouettes on the city skyline, that contrast with the mellow light of the streets

Girls, do you women assume you are asking them out when you ask them to hang out or to get coffee? (self.AskWomen)submitted just now by anne1osognosiaOr is just like it could be either and is the reasoning like, 'oh i'd be open to both, so i'd say yes', but if they don't want to date you then 'i'd better avoid it in case its a date' or something else? also, what percentage of guys would you say you would accept and ask out from?

Aren&!pfiVGYw7io 14/08/30(Sat)02:14 No. 2859

A better question is "would the paparazzi see it as a date if they saw to co-stars at a coffee shop together?"

Not only does the young lady have to worry about whether the person offering the invitation will see it as a date, they have to wonder who else will see them at the local coffee shop. If you have concerns about it being a date, invite friends who can back up whatever the real story is. I, however, do not drink coffee, because the finer things in life keep me awake far better than caffeine.

Why not own an aircraft that is not only a pleasurable, visceral experience to pilot. But also demonstrate your excellent taste in aviation design.

Anybody here heard of the brand Bokland before?
It seems to have ceased productions or so? Because I cannot seem to ind it in stores and online searches come up with only pictures of mini collection bottles.

Just strolling down memory lane and remmembered that my first vodka shot was with a peach flavoured vodka of said brand..

This gent appears to be drinking third-rate fruity liquor to play at being lower class. How very droll. I often imbibe swill whilst pretending to be a plebian prole myself.
