  • BOTL UPCOMING MAINTENANCE

    Hi Everyone, as mentioned in my introduction post, BOTL needs quite a bit of updating, patching and whatever else I might come across. Over time BOTL may be unreachable on occasion as I do migrations or updates, etc. Just be patient - we'll be back! I'll generally try to keep these maintenances until later in the evenings.

I had a thought the other day that there are many items in life that get better with age. Be it cigars, wine, cheeses, art, beef Of course there are many things that do not get better with age. Peaches pears and women's breasts....

What other collectibles/aspects of life get better with age in your opinion?

Good call, jeans definitely get better once you break them in. That goes for shoes/boots too

Woks and cast iron cookware.
definitely agree on jeans and boots.
An interesting point is whether something gets better with age because it changes (cheese, wine) or because our tastes and preferences change (art, music)

wisdom, common sense, and the appreciation of life get much better with age.

Your back, joints and penis do not!

So a woman in her 70's or 80's perhaps :dunno: :agreesmil

I agree with jeans and boots. I hate getting new jeans because then I have to get them worn in.

Some people pay $100 for jeans that are "worn in".
Just like with cigars, it pays to "age" them yourself.

Very interesting spin. Those jeans still aren't worth it!
