Have you ever seen pipe smokers riot? Bet you haven't
I was going to riot once! But my pipe went out and I had to stop,tamp,and relight! By then everyone else was a block ahead and I didn't feel like catching up, so I went home and logged on to pipesmagazine.com and enjoyed the rest of the night. :puffy:

Can we get back to discussing smoking a full tin of Royal Yacht?
It is actually easier than you think. There are only about 15-20 bowls in one of those, and they go quickly. Especially if you have some long-term project due. Most difficult thing is coming back to reality afterwards.

This is why rioting is too dangerous. Heaven forbid I scratch my briar, or worse, spill my tobacco. :puffy:

As Mackeson said, if rioting involved recliners, I'd be there. Rioting in a recliner is merely protesting. I'm definitely on board with that if the cause is just. As to the OP, I think I'll need a good six months of smoking before I can sort my brain out. I'm still waiting for my Warhorse Bar to come in the mail. :(

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.
I think the origin was 1998....

Just to be clear here, I don't think anyone was calling any names.... "idiotic" and "snowflake" are just descriptors...

to me, name calling is when you SPECIFICALLY call someone a name....... didn;'t happen here.....

Its OK. we will all get through this travesty...... I have faith in all of you.... :worship:

One guy on Twitter summed it all up for me.

Hope it won't offend anyone. And I do hope that the next four years won't cause the people in the US more trouble than the election campaign.

Thanks chaps for explaining 'snowflake' for me...I feel much wiser now :puffy:
BTW, does anyone know if Trump is pro or anti smoking?
Also, I wonder how many Americans know what the word 'trump' means in British children's slang?
Right...off for a bowl of Royal Yacht...
Regards,
Jay.

The problem with protesting umm smoking in my recliner is I tend to go too far back and then I have to be careful I don't drop ashes or anything else out of the bowl onto my shirt.

yes the protesters are smoking pipes, but they are not smoking tobacco ..
And from previous experience I can tell you that I have seen organized protestors where they were bused in with an army of lawyers and press. I was providing security in a position to observe not in uniform, not much more to say about that, and I observed protestors going to their arranged locations and on cue go into their pre-scripted protests with lawyers on overwatch. The press took the required coverage that was obviously staged and then all stopped, loaded the same bus like a shift change was taking place and went home.

This is typical of a coup.
Could be we live in very exciting times.
In the meantime, I am timing myself on this tin of Royal Yacht.
I suspect it will be about 36 hours.
