The Martini Thread
I have never understood the concept of a martini without vermouth. Because then it is just gin, surely. Which is not a martini. It's cold gin. Oh, and how do you do your lemon twists as I am apparently completely inept.- theber

Why can't i have a black suit?
I don't like black suits in the summer because I find them to be too hot. Black retains heat. Or maybe thats just me. I also think that a plan black suit can look...boring? I prefer them with a subtle pinstripe or texture, something to break it up a bit. theber- theber

Cigarettes
but I take it for granted that you´re considerate enough to not pollute my lungs and nice clothing when you decide to smoke. Loving the international debate going here. I always ask if people mind if I light up when I'm not around smokers, and if they have an issue I don't. I don't even mind...- theber

Cigarettes
If someone pulls out a cigarette case, my reaction would be the same for a man wearing a cape. Would you say the same of a hip flask or a decanter? It is merely something to hold them in that is more aesthetically pleasing than the package they came in. A slightly pretentious affectation...- theber

Cigarettes
I can´t imagine a less classy "habit" than smoking. Nothing reeks more than a smoker, and people know what Big Tobacco bribed the movie majors with to make Bogart look "classy". These days, most smokers look like addicts on the lowest rung of the socio-economic ladder - not the "classy" bon...- theber

Pre and Post Dinner Drinks
I work in a castle hotel in scotland. Yeah aperitifs etc is probably a little pretentious but serving it to people all day every day has rubbed off on me. Besides I dont mean this as an every day occurence but when going out to a dinner, especially a more formal one. Its the old fashioned...- theber

Starching collars
Due to the nature of my job need to wear a suit but they tend to take a lot of abuse. I'm an assistant manager in a small hotel so from day to day I can be doing anything from serving food and drink to cleaning rooms and scrubbing ovens. For this reason I buy cheap suits and shirts that I won't...- theber

Cigarettes
This is a very old thread but i thought I'd bring it up again. We are currently going through a health crusade in the UK. Smoking is banned in all enclosed public places. It can be difficult to rent a flat if you smoke. Cigarette packs now have pictures of cancerous lungs and babies on...- theber

Manscaping anyone?
I shave my nads and trim my pubes but other than that no. Used to shave my legs when i was cycling competitively. Fun fact, that has very little aerodynamic advantage but it makes it easier to pick gravel from your leg when you crash.- theber

Johnny Walker Scotch- Which is the best tasting label?
Got to agree with ed1066 here. Blended and Single Malt whiskies are a different thing and shouldn't be compared. Not a huge JW fan. For blended whisky I tend to drink Black Bottle. As has been said Highland Park would be a good Single Malt to try, not too harsh for a new drinker and the 12...- theber
