Well gentlemen, it is about time we have a chat about a very important product of our lives that is often disregarded: toilet paper.

Now, we are no common riffraff so let’s not talk about brands like Charming and so on.
I want to talk about fancy toilet paper. Which brands do you prefer? Why do you prefer it over other brands?

Now remember to answer like a gentleman, after all, this is a very important aspect of our lives and should be handled with class.

Personally, I prefer the stiffer, more generic brands when I'm visiting my porcelain throne. I find that it holds it's shape better when it's folded into origami. Of course if you are new to the toilegami scene you could always invest in "Heart" toilet paper.

It warms me to know that another man takes part in the ill-known art of toilagami. I typically have a book or two laying around my aboad when i am traveling to practice my paper folding techniques. Although, I do completely agree with you that toilegami is a fine way to pass time, when using the facilities I prefer a much different paper for when I am finishing my business. Unfortunately, it is difficult to find my favorite brand of toilet paper that comes in a small size container, as it is normaly exported from Vietnam. Although I do not love the brand enough to talk to the owner of the company, but I do enjoy it enough to purchase it at a slightly higher price for a small package of it.

I spend most of my time in California lately; I find it behooves me to be near my business interests. The nouveau rich rule this place, true, but I'm not generally bothered by them in my own estates and there are a precious few persons of more dignified bearing here.

I hail from the rowdy shacks in Sidoarjo, Java, in the Spice Islands. Rowdy lot, and my own family has been disconnected with the clan for my grandmother's rather... 'rambunctious' activities. But with the efforts of my father and myself, we've been able to bring the family back to good standing and once again enjoy the finer sophisticated atmosphere that's so rarely found in Indonesia.

I was born in the northern regions of Binghamton, New York, and I moved across the country for a few years before finally making my home in Tucson Arizona. And, although I do agree with Sophisticated Gentleman that being a gentleman is not restricted to any location, it appears that way in the area I reside in. What this area lacks in intelligent individuals, it makes up for with spellbinding scenery as well as a very rich culture. The Native American reservations are very polite, and do not fit the stereotype in the slightest.

I'm rather fond of Captain Black cigars, specifically those of the Gold variety.
Further, clove cigarettes are quite lovely from time to time.

On the rare instance I do smoke, I favor Romeo y Julietia Reserva Real or Gurka Evil, if I am in the mood for a cigar. I do, however, have a collection of pipes left to me by my father and prefer MacBaren's Latakia Blend or Dunhill's Nightcap.

Instead of getting some cheap $2 cigars it might be better to perhaps look into Rocky Patel, they have relatively cheap smokes that have a great flavor. They are a short but sweet smoke.

Good sir, perhaps you should try a find a tobacco that has a pleasant aroma when burning. If what you smoke doesn't have such an aroma, they may complain about both the health effects as well as the fact that is, simply put, stinks.

Evening, good sirs. :-) (I employ a textual representation of a smile to represent the good spirit with which I join this discussion)

I do not have experience enjoying the effects and taste of the plant to which you refer. I, however, am an enthusiast of smoking the herb Cannabis Indica. I am in the midst of a session of consuming this herb use the method you describe (smoking it through pipes, that is). I find that it relaxes me and allows me to unwind and enjoy my evenings, and it leaves me pleasantly sedated for when I decide to enter that perplexing and marvelous state of consciousness known as sleep. Unfortunately, my consumption of this herb does cost me my dreams (which I do not experience in sleep had after consumption), but I believe it compensates for it with the dream-like state it provides while one is conscious.

I would love to entertain a discussion with any of you Sophisticated Gentlemen, about tobacco, Cannabis Indica (or even Cannabis Sativa, a more popular herb which I prefer not to use), or perhaps even smoking in general. How is everyone this evening?

Good evening, gentlemen.

I come to you just now with a question about deserts and puddings;

What would you consider to be an impressive, yet easy to acquire or prepare, desert and/or pudding?

I am going to be entertaining a young lady with dinner and a final course to our meal would make it complete. I have already been recommended a fine wine from the Vine.

The attached picture is a baked Alaska, garnished with bananas and strawberries. I was thinking of having my man, Johnson, cook one up for my 'hot date'.

A flan might work wonders in this case. I would also recommend, as perhaps a side dish or garnish, a simple concoction of cut up fruit served with lemon juice, sugar, and red wine. Simple as it is, it possesses a flavor of great subtlety and refinement.

Sophisticated Gentleman 12/09/30(Sun)03:34 No. 1588

By easy to acquire do you mean easy to make? If so, I heartily recommend pavlova. Classy, extremely easy to make (literally the hardest thing you'll have to do is separate eggs), not too heavy, and can be dressed up a variety of ways. A good pavlova should have a crisp crust but be soft in the middle, almost like a marshmallow in texture. The middle will sink when you bring it out of the oven but this is part of the point, it makes a bowl-like structure for the other components.

Aside from that, creme brulee is always delicious but custards, especially baked ones, can be a tad finnicky and they do require rammekins to properly bake. Chocolate mousse is another good choice, though some people are a bit squeamish of them as they traditionally include raw eggs.

I suppose it is too late to assist OP in his endeavor, but if anybody is looking for a little bit of Latin flavor in their distinguished desserts I highly recommend arroz con leche. It takes a long time but literally just involves putting everything in a pot and waiting for it to reduce. Is highly customizable in the spice department and can be easily modified for dietary restrictions.

It is in my opinion a mistake to call a gentleman a stuffy, humorless sod. it is every gentlemans right to let loose every now and then,
so I propose: shall we get jolly?

Please post some jolly things, be they humorous pictures, music or moving pictures, to the amusement of your fellow gentlemen.
Just keep it classy.

Summer is fast approaching. And to me, Summer has always meant, in addition to cords and short sleeves, Croquet, Bocce Ball, and gin in the twilight. I require a new, soft-soled shoe as I feel I am too old and too bourgeois to continue wearing Chuck Taylors. If any of you gents know where I may find a shoe that looks as close to the one pictured left as possible, that knowledge would be greatly appreciated.

Respect is an essential quality of being a gentleman. One's job decides if he or she is a respected member of their community.

What is your current job?
What job are you currently pursuing?

As for me, I'm in the process of acquiring my associates in accounting, then I plan to attend a university where I will major in accounting and minor in statistics.

Ah, finances. Personally, I feel a man should work the job inherited by his family. But of course, any gentleman should also be sure to pay close attention to his investments, which might be in any field he is suitably versed in. My personal family business is in literature; we trade in books. But of course as with any of us, it's only a small part of my income.

Sophisticated Gentleman 12/09/12(Wed)08:16 No. 1521

While the field of Emergency Medical Services is a well respected one, I must add that some people expect too much to meet their expectations. We always attempt to satisfy our patient's needs by going above and beyond the call of duty, but sometimes, and please forgive me if I sound apathetic, most of our patients are quite rude and ignorant regarding the services we perform. They come to expect miraculous results that we attempt
to provide. When we come short of these expectations, they believe we didn't do enough. Quite an emotion to experience indeed.

In any regard, it is a prideful career to have. But I'm looking forward to fully engaging in my part-time IT company that was established in the prior year.

A slow growth towards receiving a full-time income is always best when one starts their own business venture. Patience is truly a virtue and it shows in my company's performance. Soon I'll be ready to retire from my EMS career and I will have no regrets.

For those future entrepreneurs interested in forming their own business, here is a quote I believe you'll find most inspiring:

"My idea was then and still is that if a man did his work well, the price he would get for that work, the profits and all financial matters, would care for themselves and that a business ought to start small and build itself up and out of its earnings. If there are no earnings then that is a signal to the owner that he is wasting his time and does not belong in that business." Henry Ford - My Life and Work

Apologies to those who find my post to be lengthy.
