Thanks for the sign of approval. Sadly at the age of 80+ I've had to give up pipes for health reasons. But my enjoying a briar in public reinforced the idea it is an old man's thing. I first smokeda pipe at 16
People need to take a step back and realize the world's problems aren't theirs, and their problems aren't the world's. Enjoy what you want as long as it's in moderation and doesn't put other people in danger. If they have a high and mighty opinion of something that has no impact on their lives, tell them to kick rocks. Sad, lonely losers criticize other people to make themselves feel better because deep down, they're insecure and jealous you have the guts to be an individual. My internship was like this, worked under a major c-youknowwha-t who had nothing nice to say. The best thing to do? Live your life to the fullest and enjoy the fact that somewhere out there, there's someone that can't stand you being happy for the most benign, insignificant reasons on the planet. It's hilariously absurd, and never ceases to make me laugh when it happens.
Great video. I have a Yeti coffee thermos. It’s covered with pipe and tobacco shop stickers. Everyone in my office knows I smoke a pipe. My wife loves that I enjoy a pipe and that I have friends all over the world that are brothers of the leaf. I’m going to have to investigate Celtics Mist. Have a good week brother.
Good Morning 😊 Always Fun when Friends come over 👏🏼 Im not ashame of piping , smoke everywhere i can 👍🏼 I dont care what others think as long im happy 😂 Im Sure one of our members will advice you on getting the tobaccos 💯 Thanks for the chat and sharing a 02.30 am pipe with me 🌬💨💨 Have a wonderful week ahead & God Bless 🙏🏽 Greetings From South Africa 🇿🇦
Excellent message for us all and great advice too🎉 I cant smoke my pipe inside so I am always put and about parks and whatnot...many people approach and ask about the pipe and the tobacco😊 However some do give looks but I try my best not to bother others and stay in places not too busy but I am proud and happy to be a piper, I really enjoy it😊 Love the Cadillac, bit by bit I see more of it in the background🎉 Cheers brother
Be yourself . Others need to adapt . If you lose a friend , good a friend are they . Good friends will always support you . Try pipes and cigars they might be able to help you out for the 2 blends .
I'd never dare tell people that pipes are healthy or totally safe, but it is interesting that the only study done on it showed that pipe smokers had a slightly longer life expectency than non smokers. Probably some statistical noise or something in there but it does seem to make it clear that at worst it's not typically going to make a large impact on you
As far as I know there are studies that did show how unhealthy pipe smoking is; but they assumed we smoke ten bowls a day and inhale the smoke. I guess this makes a huge difference!
@@BrutalEnoughthere is one study from the 60s that specified non inhaling pipe smokers. it found a not negligible but not really all that big increase in the risk for mouth cancer and an average lifespan 2 years longer than the average for the time
@@ryantannar5301 yes, I know 🙂 I also asked several older pipe smokers if they know anybody who got serious ill effects from pipe smoking and noone has hearef of anybody. I know one guy who jad to quit out of health reasons. Smoked day and night and inhaled. Started with cigarettes of course....
What they say is, pipe smoking slows you down which slows the heart down which is a form of meditation. That is why pipe smokers are expected to have a longer life expectancy 😊
Just ordered some new tobacco's, Lane rlp, Lane 1q, Cornell & Diehl Bijou and G L Pease The Virginia Cream Haven't had these before but I'm looking forward to enjoying them soon Don't be ashamed sir, you're a fine gentleman
To most that I talk to including my wife, even being in the same room as any tobacco product is a death sentence, I had a small stroke 3 years ago and smoking anything is totally forbidden by everyone around me including our doctor of course….god I miss it.
I think people don't gravitate towards pipes like they do cigars or other tobacco smoking methods because it is a little more nuanced and requires a little more skill. But if they took the time to learn it, they would love it. The tobaccos are just heads above all the rest! And each pipe is special in and of itself. Truly a whole different experience.
Dont be ashamed .. but stay in your own environment and youll have zero problems ....ive traveled extensively and Europe / Canada and some other countries have Zero tolerance for Smoking period . On my Porch and in my yard only ! CHEERS
That's great you can have a pipe in the house. A Good air purifier also is worth its weight in GOLD! Two friends make Celtic mist. 2oz tins are available at Country squire website. They no longer make the pouch of PA. And the recipe changed anyway. The new stuff does not taste like the previous version. Check 4noggins. They may have PA in bulk. I know they do with Granger....and a few others. I just gave ya a shoutout on my video buddy. Hope you get a few more subs!
Thank you so much buddy. I wouldn’t say just yet. I’m allowed to have a pipe in the house, we will give it a trial run and see what she says. Lol thanks again for all the info and the shout out.
thank you for the heads up about the Country Squire, i had been looking for awhile now for a new pipe, and some different kinds of tobacco than what is offered in my local area. they are very affordable and ship to other states. good for the curious, and a godsend for those of us who live outside the pipe smoking corridors of civilization. looking forward to trying the celtic mist, and their whatever mystery blends. Thanks again for the information.
When your in a relationship with someone you love you make concessions for them. Ofc he wants to smoke is his home but his wife doesnt want him to and so he doesnt cause he loves his wife. Im sure theres some things she doesn't do that she would like to aswell
Excellent message sir, I couldn't agree more. I'm a novice pipe smoker (still working through the shame 😂) and looking to purchase a few pipes, may I ask what this pipe your smoking in this video is? it's the most pleasing looking pipe i've seen on any channel, cheers.
Tobacco IS a drug though. It’s not like we don’t use drugs on a normal basis. Tons of people engage in recreational caffeine use. There’s nothing wrong with that. As long as you don’t try to pretend that what you’re doing isn’t drugs
I used to like smoking a pipe and I'm sure I still could, but no tobacco habit is worth the hassle these days. You can't smoke anywhere indoors. Hell in most places now you can't even smoke anywhere on the property where you work! The cost is absurd. Not as bad as cigarettes, which cost as much as a nice Caribbean vacation every year, but they've hiked taxes quite a bit on pipe tobacco as well. Plus at the end of the day, it just doesn't seem wise to deliberately inhale (even partway), combustion products. That kind of occurred to me in a gut way a decade or so ago when I realized that working in chemistry labs I had to use fume hoods and gloves and other protective measures to handle even small quantities of many of the same chemicals present in smoke. I have some fond memories of the pipe, but as the saying goes, there's a season for everything.
Really? That’s actually interesting I’ve worked quite a few different jobs over the years as I only just recently graduated high school in 2021 I’m working in construction now but it seems like everywhere I’ve worked they specifically give smokers more breaks then everyone else so a lot of people started pretending like they smoke😂 It’s definitely strange to give people multiple smaller breaks basically whenever they want just because they smoke while everyone else is busting their butts and is essentially punished for working harder lmao
I did a similar video about a month ago titled smoke a pipe and just be you. Check it out. I don’t try to hide it or worry about what people think. God bless ya.
I am ashamed, because of how my wife sees it being unhealthy and potentially against God's wishes, yet I haven't even experienced it yet. That, and I live in a not so free state(Utah). Vape stuff every where, and if I ask for pipe selections, it's for the wrong leaf...
@@GentryVintage Maybe it's a function of age. As I've gotten older, what other people think is among the last things on my mind. Life is short, so short that I need 4 hands to count the people in my high school class who are taking dirt naps. When I try to compare mortality with someone else's butthurt, the butthurt does not move the needle, not even a little. Happy smokin'.
