Attention!

I was showing some friends a local antiques shop, and found a number of pipes. When I discovered they were only four quid each I was about to buy one. But then I realised that if I debated anyone while holding it I would automatically win. This would be unfair, so I bought a second one, which I intend to offer my interlocutors. Indeed, I will be trying to find a case for them, so I can open it and offer them a choice of weapons. :)

 

Both are from the late Edwardian period. One is a proper corncob, and the other a short briar pipe.

 

I am typing this while chewing on the stem of the briar. It is quite amazingly awesome.

I am trying very hard to imagine you with an Edwardian Pipe and a Monocle at the same time. Kind of a scary image actually :)

I like pipes, they're much easier to smoke than cigars. You can even cut a piece out of a cigar and smoke it in a pipe. Which is the proper alternative when wearing a pith helmet?

Just smoke some Camel Golds like a real man.

I really should get a pith helmet now. Much better than a fez.

It took me a while to realize that you were referring to smoking pipes, being completely ignorant of what "corncob" and "briar" pipes are. For some reason, I thought you had acquired two plumbing implements on which you intended to rely to prove the superiority of your point. Then the "choice of weapon" comment... nevermind.

This goes for me too.

I adore pipes. My old boyfriend used to come over and smoke his pipe in my room and the whole place would smell so incredibly fantastic. Pipe smoke is seroiusly intoxicating. :lol:

 

*sigh*

Anybody here catch that? All I understood was 'very'.

Smoking ain't good for the body. :'(

There was a time when I questioned the ability for the schizoid to ever experience genuine happiness, at the very least for a prolonged segment of time. I am no closer to finding the answer, however, it has become apparent that contentment is certainly a realizable goal. I find these results to be adequate, if not pleasing. Unfortunately, connection is another subject entirely. When one has sufficiently examined the mind and their emotional constructs, connection can be easily imitated. More data must be gleaned and further collated before a sufficient judgment can be reached.

To be 100% clear: I am NOT smoking these pipes. The only harm I am doing myself is believing they will make me look credible.

Don't forget the reading glasses, fuzzy hair, beard and beer gut, my friend, that's if you haven't got those already!

Bah, there's no point if you're not smoking. The reason the pipe makes you look more credible is because to keep a pipe lit it takes very controled and regular draws. Having to stop to puff occasionally gives you time to think, and better phrase your response. Not to mention nicotine is a stimulant and helps your brain work better.

 

And pipe smoking really isn't that bad for you. For one thing, it's not something you do all day every day like cigarettes. It's an occasional thing, that helps you relax and think. It's good for the soul!

Its still bad for you.

In 7th grade, I teach the students how Chuck Norris took down the Roman Empire, so it is good that you are starting early on this curriculum.

I am going to put a laser pointer in the stem of the pipe so when I point at things I can lase them.

 

And pipes are bad for you. Maybe not as bad as cigarettes. But that's as in: putting your hand in the toaster is not as bad as putting both your hand and the toaster into a bucket of water.

 

I have been using teh magical powers of the pipe to win at online games. It gives one an indefatigable air, even if no-one else can see it.

Shhhhh....

 

I need more pipe smokers around, damn it. Other than my ex, the only people around who smoke pipes are the old professors here on campus. Of course, everytime I get a wiff of pipe smoke, I get this overwhelming desire to follow the scent wherever it goes... but I can usually force myself to keep walking straight.

 

Those pied pipers haven't betwitched me completely... yet...
