Guilty - suspenders are so much more comfortable than a belt. You can hang your pants on yourself up high, down low, and in the middle (too slow!) Protip: unhook them off your shoulders if you're setting down to smoke a pipe or a cigar and your pants won't creep up.

Most of a guys I know with a pipe wear bibs. I have a couple pair, there is a pocket for everything, including your cell phone. In our part of the country nobody gives them a second look.

I have been warned that once you stop wearing a belt, and there is nothing holding your belly up (you know who you are) you will gain pants size pretty quickly...

Ha… saw one waiting outside of Sam’s Club yesterday. I chatted for a moment. He was smoking Captain Black in a bent pot shaped Dunhill. You like what you like…
see the thing is if they smoke something else the sense of pleasure will be too much. And they'll start thinking about all the things they missed out in life. And that's just too much.

Saw a long haul trucker puffing away as we both sat in traffic waiting for a mud slide to be cleared. We were about the only people waiting that weren’t in a huff.

Some of the old curmudgeons, although maybe not this old curmudgeon, me, don't want to talk much about their pipe or tobacco. One old fella in the grocery parking lot all but burst into a run, while admitting he was smoking Prince Albert. Pardon me!
Good to know! I always thought some people were just being curmudgeony in general
