Hot pockets?

[Old_Woodsman]

Hi, so many questions!! Haha!

How do you gentlemen pocket or store a half smoked bowl if you are on the move? Especially if It's still hot/warm?

Thanks,

Tony

I just drop it in my shirt pocket, button the flap and go. My pipes are rarely warm to the touch and I smoke them on the verge of going out so no risk of burning a hole in my pocket.

I put a thumb over the bowl to put it out before I go inside. Only takes a few seconds.

I prefer the ham and cheese hot pockets, myself. A staple dorm room classic.

This bowl cap works for me. I cover the holes with a thin layer of silicone and that snuffs out the tobacco very quickly and keeps the tobacco contained in the bowl.

Sorry, I couldn't resist.

A half smoked bowl tends to just stay in the pipe. It’s not just coming out with gravity. So, I too just stick mine in a shirt pocket, pants pocket, or a pipe bag, if I have one on hand. But, shirt pocket is 90% of what I have easily available.

I try to avoid situations that would call for storing a lit pipe. If you don't have a pipe screen you could be out of luck.

I don’t worry about bac coming out in my pocket. But if I have a half-smoked in the car where it can be easily jostled I put a Pusser’s rum cork in there. It fits almost all of my pipes. I’m sure other brands with different size corks can be used if you smoke really big pipes.

They were a lot better prior to Nestlé's acquisition of them in 2002. Chef America used real ingredients and shortly after taking over, Nestlé replaced much of them with artificial ones and raised the prices. One of the worst companies I've ever worked for.

I'm with the others here with a shirt pocket or whatever. Except I dump the ash out, first. If I'm in the car, I just put it in a cup holder. I have a quarter in the car which is all kinds of black and stinky from laying it over the still smoldering bowl of hundreds of half smoked car pipes.

I ash the loose ashes then stick it in my pocket. I still get ashes on me but I don't care.

the rare times I do that I put a cap on it (one of those wind caps) and just put it in my pocket. The thing is the outside of the pipe will be slightly warm and that's it. See the thing is when it gets hot just leave it alone for a few minutes or moments (which ever leads to a cooler pipe to touch), so to my mind the pipe shouldn't be hot.

One of my favorite things written on a junk food box was this big yellow bubble on a hot pockets package that said "now with 50% more REAL cheese". Though not as good as the stickers I put over the spot on the cereal box where they advertise the "prize". By the way the sticker said something like "this package contains the dead tortured body of a small flightless bird" (it was a PETA thing, but I improved it).

Commissaire Maigret (played by famous French actor J Gabin )was superbly skilled at handling and operating' lit pipes while on duty

They also ruined their chocolate by omitting cocoa butter. Happily they sold the US rights to Ferrara and I can attest, the 100 grand, Crunch, and Butterfinger are all returned to their former glory. And yes; they have returned to using cocoa butter in their candies.

If I have lit pipe I smoke it. If going inside a store I simply place it in the cup holder wherein I have a silicone liner. Haven't had an issue or car fire yet ... alhtough I noticed Virginias take longer to go out resulting in a shorter smoke upon relighting.

Yep. That's why when I prepack a bowl or two for when I'm out and about, I light it up before putting in a pocket because that way the tobacco stays in the bowl.

@Old_Woodsman when I've got a half smoked bowl, I hold the pipe upside-down so any loose ash can fall out, then I just stick it in my shirt pocket.
