and tomorrows word of the day is Knit picking vs nitpicking.

The reference could be to picking nits, or to picking at stitches in knitting or to picking lice, fleas, little tiny bugs that are of no significance but annoying as phug when people do it. Sarcasm

My favorite is "Hecho a Manos: The Hands of Fate"!

References to horrible movies aside, the gold standard is "Totalmente Hecho a Mano", which means TOTALLY hand-made. That means zero machines involved.

Marketing to the new generation? Everything in the Millennial "world" is craft. There is a huge sub culture of crafters (beer, cigars, leather goods and raw denim just to name a few.

Nobody does, This is a debate that has been going on for years. This leads to getting into the differance between arts vs craft. Is something that is crafted not a work of art etc and so forth? Myself being an artist and a crafter and traveling in those circles it is still a question that is unanswered officially.

It a nutshell and in my OP only. Yes I do know, It is the same by surface standards. If you buy raw material and put it together to make an item it is both art and a craft as everything has to come from something be it raw material or from items pre machined and raw material. It is both hand made and hand crafted.

Puddin hit the mark dead on. The key is adding the word Totally to the phrase. This is the only thing that will actually somewhat distinguish between if an item is made totally by hand with no pre machined parts or not. Then again even this is debatable depending on who it is you are speaking to and their ability to comprehend what is being said.

Now with all that said, No, it is not "So,in other words I do not know". If that is what I meant that is what I would have said. What you should have said is So in other words Ewok thinks I am digging real hard to make a mountain out of a molehill and that I should have the ability to come to a conclusion on my own over such a petty thing. Also "In other words" He gets very frustrated with people that tend to make the world's IQ drop by asking questions that amount to bupkis. He also thinks that in doing this it is just as bad if not worse than watching teen mom and the dang midget shows.

That would be the proper "So, In other words" ThumpUp

I do keep forgetting that some people have issues in understanding or picking up on implicit disgust when it comes in the form of reading which I think falls under reading comprehension not sure? So they tend to assume by responding with "So,In other words" and as per usual they typically get it wrong all together because they are grasping at straws or "in other words" guessing at what I was trying to say. So my bad. I know this is something I must work on as it would really help others that love to nitpick.fog

Since I feel bad for my mistake I think I should start a fundraiser called "Help Millennials and Nitpickers of Merica understand" and I will even throw in the first buck fitty "in other words" $1.50

PR, there are very few industry standards when it comes to cigar production. Two that I can think of:
1. Ring size is pretty standard; and
2. The absolute refusal to explain almost anything about a cigar...other than ring size....and often wrapper origin...and even that explanation is sometimes suspect

Hey Hey Mandoman! I hope all is well on your end of the fence?

I would but shes a lil pissed at me for the time being.


She came in the office to say something, I told her "Not now, I was a little ill because I think I might have a gluten allergy." She said in a huff,

"So in other words you saying you are allergic to me because I am fat!!!!!" Brick wall Brick wall Brick wall Brick wall


Confused

As the millennials say, "I just can't people today"

Doing well, you?
Explain the difference between "gluten" and "glutes, I.e. Gleuteus Maximus". One comes from wheat, the other from donuts.

Bwahahahaha, I wished I could increase muscle mass by eating donuts.

Gluten is a protein typically found in grains and other foods.

Gluteus maximus is the largest of the butt muscles. It attaches to the side of the sacrum and femur. It’s responsible for extending and externally rotating the hip joint. It creates forward thrust as you walk, run etc. It also helps when you find a kid you want to kick the piss out of so, it helps in the movement while putting boot to ass. Beer
