I never understood why pipe tobacco smoke smells so nice while every other tobacco product is loving awful. I used to smoke pipe but switched to cigarettes because cleaning it is a pain and kinda gross.

I will smoke a cig maybe once or twice a month if I'm at a bar, cause there are still bars here that are cool with it and its a fun social thing. I will never understand cigars or pipes, the dumb things you're not supposed to inhale

Pipe Smoking: Cool, enjoyable, and relaxing as heck when done off the beaten path in nature or on a river bank or someplace where you can kick back and enjoy peacefully. However, it sucks rear end in loud places like big cities and parks and balconies.

Just do bonghits of some hosed up asian tobacco with like 10x the nicotine we get in the west. Combine with a pot of black coffee to really get your blood pumping in the morning.

Used to know someone who would do it when they were out of weed and desperate(weed is expensive af here so it's not uncommon to mix it with tobacco no matter how you smoke it). Tried it myself and it's not what you'd call a pleasant experience. Something to try if you want to feel how a proper nicotine overload is though.

Vietnamese tobacco has a retarded amount of nicotine in it, poo poo flavor, and they smoke it out of bong pipe things.
Their locally grown coffee has a higher percentage of caffeine, and also poo poo flavor. They have mastered ruining natural drugs.

I don't know what they do different between pipe and cigarette tobacco but pipe tobacco tastes way better to me. I don't really smoke in public, aside from the pipe shop where I get the tobacco at, because it's dorky as gently caress.

But nah I just like tobacco in general. Cigarettes, cigars, pipes. I like them all.

I do pipes in fall & cigars in Spring/Summer. Sometimes I go months, months months without tobacco. Unless I have a drink to go along with a smoke I just can't be bothered to smoke.

Never got into cigs or chewing tobacco. Think I dodged a bullet there.

"Most pipe (and cigar smokers) are not nicotine addicts, but connoisseurs who enjoy the taste, smell and ambience of pipe smoking. Generally pipe and cigar smoke is not inhaled, but rolled around the mouth. Whereas cigarette smokers are typically nicotine addicts who want the cheapest, fastest, biggest hit.

For this reason pipe tobacco is usually very high grade, matured, often skilfully blended to enhance the character and sometimes anointed with flavourings. Hence it smells really good. Cigarettes on the other hand consist of cheap tobacco, paper and additives that increase the intensity of the nicotine hit. Thats why they stink."

and, the gist of the article, is that they put poo poo like ammonia and other poo poo so you get a lot more nicotine in cigarette tobacco to get higher/addicted to it

How loving stupid would you have to be that you don't realize that of all the tobacco you could be using, cigarettes are literally scraped off the garbage pile tier bullshit?


This is like thinking having to buy something at a gas station so they let you into the men's room so you can lick the urinal cake is ok. Dude you can buy better candy. It's still not good for you, but, ...poo poo.

I was outside da club and I began to pack my pipe. A VERY attractive lady walked up to me and began to ask about my pipe and complimented me about how cool it was. I slowly stroked my pipe as I looked her directly in the eyes. She went in for a kiss and my fedora bumped against her head, causing it to fall to the ground and expose my receding hairline. I screeched in fright and she instinctively jumped backwards. Unfortunately an Uber driver was racing by at that very time and struck and killed her. I gave her a viking funeral as I thought it appropriate.

IMHO, as a cigar/pipe smoker I have never haunted the exteriors of office buildings or hide in my car while the party continues in the backyard.

When I wish it I will light up a toro sized cigar & watch as other men soon follow my lead. We will tend to drag the beer cooler while we distance ourselves away from children & the women so...mission accomplished.
