One Of The Funniest Essays On Pipe Smoking I Have Ever Read

[jkrug]

We do want to try to be a little more careful than we were back in the 50’s, when people shotgunned Winstons right into toddler faces because they wouldn’t sit still in church.

That is a funny read for sure. I chuckled several times while reading it but I friggin' lost it when I got to this line....hilarious!! :rofl:

Another funny essay, along the same lines as the A.A. Milne piece,

is an S. J. Perelman thing writ in 1945,

seen here:

It wasn't a double post my man,

that old thread is ancient...
(I was just being lazy and pointing to the Perelman essay instead of going thru the hassle of copying 'n pasting it here LOL)
...glad you posted the Milne essay,

it's also one of my favorites.
In fact,

that essay cannot be posted too much!
It deserves to have as many eyes on it as possible in my opinion,

thank you for posting it.

Had to decide if I failed the reader check to move along to the rest of the article. Close call...
I DO love the final little bit:

In fact I’m just now reminded of that famous Einstein refrain on the subject:

“I believe that pipe smoking contributes to a somewhat calm and objective judgement in all human affairs, unless you’re wearing an ironic t-shirt and playing badminton – then you just look like a pussy.”
