Fresh air? Bah, overrated... compared to smoking Royal Yacht for a month.
But:
That is impressive. Most of mine last no longer than 24 hours as well. Coffee keeps me awake so I can finish the tin while it is fresh.
Election Over: Smoke a Pipe

Please close this thread. It's just going to get worse. I know how the majority of y'all feel, but I joined this forum to get insight on pipes and pipe tobacco. I mean, the cartoon and caption is benign, but some will take it as an opportunity to show their entire ass.
"Snowflake" is a term some use to identify those too fragile to deal with the reality of a situation. Like "snowflakes" they can suffer no heat or handling, simply falling apart when life about them doesn't meet their expectations, causes distress, or requires facing up to adversity.
Personally I love elections, my first president I admired was Ronald Reagan and followed his campaign when I was a youngster, this election was a gamechanger, it will go down in history.
I hate to be the one to say it, but, we ARE all adults here. The name calling is embedded in American culture. From playground to nursing home, insults and name calling are as American as waterboarding at this point.
Yes, it will get worse. Much worse. Then, and only then, will action be taken. I came here for the pipe and tobacco knowledge. I stay for the trainwrecks, and pipe and tobacco knowledge. Hang in there.
Since when is butthurt a term used by adults in conversation? Last I checked, it was bandied about by teens much like "the bomb" or "rad"? I'm not targeting you Beefeater33, as that is a fine looking butthurt report, but I'm really just curious considering the origins of the term.
"Snowflake" is a fine, descriptive term I think, rather than an epithet. Certainly it can be used with disdain. But, name calling is probably something we should all dial back. Civil discourse requires forethought, name calling is easier for some.
I'm all for having this thread just be about the election being over and us all being somewhat over-wrought and that we all deserve a month of smoking (Royal Yacht). The "no politics" rule is designed to prevent us from thinking each other are evil idiots or whatever the term is these days.
I also suggest, maybe a bit carefully, that this site is someone's livelihood and things like the cartoons are part of that, so maybe we should keep it lighthearted here and if need be, use the groups feature on this site to form political action committees.

I see absolutely nothing wrong with calling rioters "idiotic rioters" because that is exactly, without a doubt, what they are. Idiotic. Protest is fine. Rioting, destroying property, and violence is not fine.
That being said, I'm so glad the election is over. And maybe a month off to smoke a pipe would do everyone some good.

I have to agree with that one. It's hard for me to find a nice euphemism for rioting because your candidate did not win.
EDIT: For the record, I am not opining whether or not this is the proper venue for discussing rioting. I am simply agreeing with the above statement on its own merits.

I'm listening to Quiet Riot while smoking some Sextant in a Ashton Bulldog......Oops wrong thread.
