Am I OCD w/ my Portions?

[Christi]

I have to have the seam side to my lip and the other to my gums at all times.

Does anyone else do this or am I just ocd about my snus?

[Veganpunk]

I fold mine seem in, and face the fold toward my gums, so yea I guess I'm a little ocd as well.

LOL! I do the same thing

[Christi]

Phew!

When I have bigger portions, not mini's, I fold seam in too!

What is the deal with that?!

I am glad I am not the only one.

I don't really pay attention to it, but it seems that others around here do. See here: http://www.snuson.com/viewtopic.php?...highlight=seam

We like to talk about the same things over and over, with new people!

Dang, I really thought I was the only one. I should have looked around before asking.

LOL

Christi......I'm beginning to think that you are "one of a kind" anyway. Not quite sure what kind tho.

No, no...just wanted to show you that you weren't alone! When I first started with snus, the seam bothered my gum, so I always put in a portion seam side in. Must have been a limited time thing, because I don't seem to pay much attention to it any longer.

Well, I know I am one of a kind, and I am pretty sure EXACTLY what kind :wink:

I am actually glad to know others are as OCD w/ portions as I am. I thought I was weird.

I do it as well Christi. I really don't know why but I can't stand having the seam against my gums, though in all reality it is not a bit different lol.

(yes I have experimented before to see if it felt different...it doesn't)

This is a good thing to see. I too thought I was the only one and I was afraid to bring it up. I don't know any other snusers so there's nobody to talk to about these sorts of things if it weren't for forums like this.

I can safely say that I have NEVER used snus with the seam side in. In fact I try to get the tobacco in the portion weighted towards one side about 60/40 and put that side closer to the front of my mouth and closer to the side of the portion that actually has the smaller seam. Some of them are like that and it's random I think.

Is it comfort? is is OCD? Who knows...it's the way though. I even re-form the ones that are packed in the star pattern so they custom fit my mouth each time. Only once did I leave it shaped the way it came and it wasn't right.

I too found the star pattern didn't feel right either - i fluffed til the tobacco is evenly distributed...

"Laces Out" !!!!!

[Christi]

I always fluff and smash, or fold...it is just a thing I guess.

[Sato]

I also do this. Don't know why but I've been doing it ever since the first Camel Snus I tried.
