How Old Is Everyone

[condorlover1]

I am very old!

I started around the same time as you at 17, so I wouldn't doubt it one bit.?

I smoked my first pipe at 17 but only got serious about pipe smoking when I turned 18 and tobacco became more readily (and legally) available.
This forum is the only connection I have to other pipe smokers. I've tried to stoke interest in my friends, but alas- millennials love their vaping.

About the same here. There's a B&M thirty miles away, but mostly cigar smokers.

I've brought in a few others over the years and the only millennial I got was a first year one. He had a fascination with old timey things and sported a handlebar mustache much like myself. Wore a derby most of the time as well so a pipe just became part of his look.

Careful with that avatar, you might get accused of being a member of the Frigate's crew!

What the Good Ship Penis? Frigging in the rigging and all that stuff!

I am glad you like the avatar. I had the old one for six years and Justin did this one for me a few years ago before he buzzed off to the Briar Patch!

You left out cleaning fluid and unicorns.

Close, I'm 25 going on 90.

Wowzers! Then I'm going on 112.

Does that make you 47, then?

Sounds very hipster, but honestly I'm jealous of anybody who can pull off a derby hat in public.
I had no idea that you have a handlebar mustache ? do you curl the ends up?

See? I'm so old I can't count anymore. It's actually going on 107. ?

Oh please 42 isn't anywhere close to 'old'.

Going for the intellectual look, Cap'n? ?

Looked like that for years, just getting prettier with age.

Oh please ☺ 42 isn't anywhere close to 'old'.

Why, thankee! I can stop looking for a Gandalf hat to put on for when I smoke my churchwarden now.

 

[supperthyme]

Great stache, Embers. ? And that buffalo nickel hat band is killer.

Hey, the Gandalf hat is timeless. I think everyone should keep one handy for smoking churchwardens.

Felting wizard hats is actually a hobby of mine.

Thank you very much!?
