Until you scan it and get it back in the computer... which kinda defeats the point

It does not defeat the point. Why do you need shit in the computer? Thats the problem with digital in the first place. They get placed in the computer and lie there untouched at least mine do. Maybe post some shit to Facebook or Instagram. This way you get prints you can actually feel and see. You remember, right? Bonus you get scans of them to place them along side your other digital shit you hardly look at.
Anyways film has a different look to it that people try to emulate with lightroom plugins. Either way its a hobby of mine. Like I said there is a lab like a few blocks away from me so its cool.

I look at my digital pictures a hell of a lot more often than I ever dug out printed photos. My Mom has 50 years worth of pictures in a huge drawer in her house and the only time anyone looks at any of them is when somebody dies and we need pictures for their funeral video.

All the shops here have it delivered every day. I just dropped off my tank and will pick up the refill next week. They get the at shop tanks of several thousand cubic feet refilled and the driver just takes my small bottles in and brings them back the next day. All the argon, helim, and co2 gets delivered and refilled every day. I'm sure it comes from Pax Air, Air products or whoever. There's an Air Products immediately next to 3/4 of the 100+ chemical plants and refineries here to service them.

It's not the air roducts you are thinking of. They aren't refilling bottles and shit lol. They're a complete self contained plant service a chemical plant or refinery for the air and gas type needs 24/7. The one adjacent to Dow has probably 1000 people working 24/7 at any given time. It's not a retail place at all since it's inside the gates of Dow. All the chemical plants and refineries have them.
More this type. They aslo will deilver some off site partners like the shops I work with. They deliver it in a semi truck and the driver will just take a random bottle in if you know him or the guys in the shop and such.

You got a good local roaster? mine went belly up so i've been doing lots of Amazon roasters instead, these guys are good, nice fresh beans
Amazon.com : Cafe Don Pablo - Rocco Gourmet Food
They have a city roast which i actually more prefer, but my wife likes the espresso blend more
Amazon.com : Cafe Don Pablo Gourmet Coffee - Full City Roast - CharBeanz Dark Coffee - 12oz Bag - Whole Bean Coffee - 100% Arabica Coffee : Grocery Gourmet Food
more well known is kicking horse, i have them on order (they should have been prime, but somehow it got fucked over to 2 weeks)
Amazon.com : Kicking Horse Coffee, Smart Ass, Whole Bean Coffee, 10 Ounce : Grocery Gourmet Food
I have a few others on subscribe
Should be getting an order of koffee kult this weekend, their reviews are pretty awesome
Amazon.com : Koffee Kult Coffee Beans Medium Roasted - (1lbs Whole Bean Coffee) Highest Quality Delicious Coffee - Whole Bean Coffee Fresh Gourmet Aromatic Artisan Blend : Grocery Gourmet Food
I only buy 1lb or less bags to keep a fresh cycle.
I'm really not that into it but i do really enjoy a various coffee beverages and I think I'm going start drinking more later in the day. Hopefully throwing money at it will make my morning routine both easier and tastier...I'll definitely give amazon a try as long it's not catshit coffee or ends up costing 2 bucks a cup at home as I'm sure charleston doesn't have shit for roasters

Usually when ppl tell me they only like "strong" coffee, what they're telling me is that they've had too much dank shit in their lives.
While i really don't like how they've established themselves, independent coffee shops probably have the best blend of coffees, if you really want to see and taste good coffee search for an establishment/coffee house that has "pour over", usually a coffee house that has pour over will also have a good barista, (usually a hippie looking guy, not some college girl that tamps with all her strength) and are roasting in the back.
Naw what i've noticed is that unless you're specifically looking for "organic" on it, it'll skyrocket to 1.50 per ounce, most of the ones i've found are a good .60ish to .99 an ounce, which is really good.
Your basic supermarket will have some brands like 8oclock coffee for .40ish an ounce, but that's really bottom basic coffee, they're ok, but there is zero oil on the beans (beans will have to be oily, that's where the flavor come from after roasting). While starbucks is about a 1.20ish an ounce.
And this is only if your supermarket carries whole bean, i've found that it is very rare for a supermarket to carry whole bean, 90% of the time it'll all be ground (which is dog shit, no matter the brand)
my preferences have been to look for whole beans, with good "roasted" dates.
