What do you all do with your empty trubos?

You mean Tubos? I throw them out or use them to conceal certain things during road trips.

Sometimes I used them as impromptu carrying cases for single cigars, for protection.
Otherwise I'll bring em to my Chem Lab just in case I need some more test tubes... :ss

I just use them to store other singles if I am taking them to the golf course, or on a trip, that way I know they wont get busted up. And I didn't have to pay for a herf-a-dor.

I thought this too, until I started going to herfs with 15+ sticks. Carrying that many tubos is a PITA.

I like to play jokes on other BABOTL's and give them Creamosa's in Davidoff tubos. J/K, they mostly just sit in a box collecting dust. I can't quite bring myself to throw them all away.
I sell my empty Turbos to tweakers so they can do stupid **** like this:

What's the supposed to be? Art?

From the looks of it, no. I would guess that some tweaker probably thought they could improve the performance of a turbocharger by welding extentions to every other vane.

I usually keep my Tubos so that I can store single cigars when I go fishing or other places that might involve some damage to cigar that is not protected. Other then that, I like to look at and cherish them.

If it's a tubo that has a non-tubo version, I may refill it or I toss them. Some churchill tubos I may save and put a smaller cigar in for travel.

I would not even smuggle a Habanos 1994 "prison style" and that is my dream cigar.

Throw them away. I just don't see any reason to hold on to them, they take up to much space and I have a couple single cigars holders and travel cases.

I was wondering if it was normal for my cigars to have a little nutty flavor and had a hint of bran.....I was planning on making a comment about my maduros, but I think that would have stepped over the line :D

Hmmm. Nobody for gentle anal probing, huh?

Free cigar to anyone who gets the inside joke that IS gentle anal probing.
And against my better judgement, I DID google it to see if it could be got that way....nope.
You had to have read it before. Not that gentle anal probing isn't a popular search on google.
Maybe I needed to go to page 4, or "I'm feeling lucky" LOL.

My truck has a turbo. I like to adjust it to push more air and help me burn more coal.
But my tubos I place on a piece of tape so they don't fall over and put them on my desk.

That will balance well... I see no problem with airflow or balancing at speed ;)

Dont forget to purge after the initial light... Otherwise you get some really $hitty flavors...

Never had anything with a Turbo... However, my MINI has a SuperCharger :D

That turbo makes me sad. Some people's kids.
I don't have any yet, but when I get something in a tubo I'll probably save one from each type I get. The rest will most likely hit the trash.

Yeah, so for whatever reason I decided to take on your google search challenge to find this term. I failed, and then the wife saw my search term history a bit later (showed up automatically in Safari's search bar). I actually showed her this thread to prove the story.
