General Discussion - 2012

Sort of a new thread here, but I was curious:  anyone have an issue where safari (iPad) will just sudnly close without warning.   It seems to happen when writing a pm or post reply.  All my earth shaking genius just goes POOF!   Haven't noticed this on any other site.

At times . . . But I shut her down and when it rebooted, it seemed to fix 'er.

Can you do chat on iPad? I don't seem to be able to.

No... chat is flash based so you can't access it on an Apple product (iPad, iPhone, etc.)

Yes. Safari closes without warning. I've lost several self-important manifestos I was hammering out over in the politics thread.

Question: how do I turn off my iPad? Is that the suggested method of fix?

Hold down the little button on the right side opposite the end with the center button. Holding it down will bring up the turn off iPad option. Slide yes and it will shut down. Repeat to turn on.

This is for the iPad 2.

I didn't even think about it. Same as iphone, so makes sense. Duh.

Just to throw in another wrench, Atomic Web browser (emulating firefox) crashes the same way.

Anyone know where I can order a can of Jake's Mint Chew by a can?  All I see on the site is rolls.  Chewie's review got me interested in trying but don't really want to buy a whole roll if I don't have to.  Anyone else have an opinion on the stuff??

Rated, WalMart sells 'Smokey Mountain Wintergreen' which is pretty good. I dipped mint, and this was the easiest/closest to mint I could find and I actually like it.. Pretty good texture to it, isnt dry..
If anyone has a good site they've ordered from, don't be afraid to share the love!!

Yeah, I tried Smokey Mountain as well and LOVE everything about it except... the "energy" boost. I use to dip to relax so I'd rather have something without the guarana. Other than that, it is the best stuff I've tried. Maybe I'll just buy the roll on Jake's site that has each flavor to try..

As far as I know Jake's only comes in rolls. That said, I'll reach out to the owner and see if there's another alternative. Will let you know.

That would be awesome.. Also, when you contact him can you ask him if there is a different method of paying, or if he will accept an Australian CC.. (obviously I don't have a US cc and cant buy online).. Appreciate it!!

You don't need to pay for fake man. Just take a pinch of koala bear shit.

I used fake for first few months. Jake's is a good change of pace. In fact, between hooch, Smokey and jakes, it's hard to pick a fave because they're all so different.

Is that the trick is it gmann..?? If it is, I'm on the next plane home to get me a scoop of koala shit.. Hahaha! If I had a $ for every Australian joke, I'd be a fucking millionaire!
I actually need to slow down on the fake, I need to get out of the habit of the oral gratification..

Hey guys. So ive been dip free for 32 days now and am still having trouble going to the bathroom. Fiber and exercise seem to help. Im just curious how long can this last?

[kdog]

I'll vouch for Hooch. It's the best I've had, and I've tried most alternatives. It definitely helped me get through some tough times and now I'm one year and three days free, and i still chew Hooch from time to time, especially when I travel. I just went to KC a few weeks ago for work and brought my Hooch.
