    Assortment of Cuban cigars (aged, 66 pieces in total)

    I used to be an avid cigar smoker and am now giving it up and selling my collection. All these cigars were purchased between 2007 and 2011 and have been stored in my humidor at 65-70% humidity since. The majority are from 2010. Includes some very hard-to-find cigars, like the RA Grandes 2008...

    Greek Coffee

    Tastes like espresso but is a thousand times easier to make. Who else loves this stuff?

    People are terrible at recycling

    The system for organizing trash here is pretty simple. Garbage goes in cans, paper and cardboard go in a blue box and all other recyclables (plastic, metal, glass) go in a green box. Yet every time I go to drop off my trash I see some moron has mixed them up. I completely filled up the paper box...

    Best Christmas specials

    It is almost 1 December, the earliest I approve of anything Christmas-related being put on display. However, during the month of December, I attempt to relive my childhood holidays by watching my favourite Christmas specials and movies almost every day. These include Home Alone, Rudolf the...

    The shallow pointlessness of backpacker culture

    I recently read a great review of a number of travel novels excoriating backpackers for being as phony and regimented as the societies they attempt to flee. It is an issue particularly dear to my heart as I have rarely met anyone as shallow and self-satisfied as the slumdog globetrotters I met...

    Who should I follow on twitter?

    Twitter haters can feel free to flame away, but while I've never actually tweeted anything, I find it's a great way to keep up with interesting people/organizations. However, my list is extremely short and I wouldn't mind adding to it. The problem is that most interesting websites already have...

    Enough with the lifestyle photos

    I am sick of seeing these all over the forum. Pictures in the wine thread where you can't even see the label, but the glass/meal/mood lighting is all in perfect focus. WAYWRN pictures artificially desaturated and taken from angles that obscure the clothing while emphasizing one's female...

    Is there anything more pretentious and unnecessary in the kitchen?

    Facebook Places

    If you haven't heard, facebook launched its geolocation feature this week. It's basically identical to foursquare inasmuch as you can notify people of where you are, and the service uses your social network and crowdsourcing to tell you about points of interest around you, with one important...

    How do we establish a cost-benefit analysis for clothes?

    Or any items, for that matter. This is a theoretical discussion that came up in a conversation I was having with someone else about cigars, but it's applicable to MC. When we say, for example, that Cheney or Tricker's offers a good product for the price, what do we mean exactly? It's implied...

    Is there a special title for the person who supervises an intern?

    A non-controversial intern question. I'm not sure if it works this way in the USA, but in France internships are an integral part of obtaining a diploma in many, many fields. You (ideally) don't just spend 12 weeks making photocopies, you are actually assigned a specific person to supervise and...

    The Black Keys

    I almost never listen to new music but I discovered The Black Keys last night and am really enjoying their newest album. In the same retro-hip spirit as Sharon Jones & the Dap Kings, they play a sort of funk/rock hybrid with the guitar distortion and bass turned way up. Great videos, too. Give...

    C&J antique nubuck maintenance

    As we all know, the Tetbury in antique nubuck is not actually calf, but rather some sort of hybrid suede/calf that is created by compressing nubuck until it takes on a smooth appearance. I have read all the old threads about this material and one thing struck me: in each one, somebody mentioned...

    Sleek last syndrome

    Anyone else suffer from this? I've recently upgraded to sleeker, more chiseled lasts than I used to wear and now I find I can't go back to my old shoes. They look so blobby and clownish by comparison.

    SeiyaJapan no longer sells Seiko Spirit -- where to kop?

    Self-explanatory. Website reads "Not available for purchase" and the watch isn't even listed among the mechanicals anymore. Is this temporary or for good? http://www.seiyajapan.com/product/S-...5_SCVS013.html Any ideas where else to find one, besides TZ? Or anyone willing to sell me theirs?
