Voted, but I'm a believer in the sanctity and privacy of the ballot box. I'm sick of being discriminated against for my taste in pipes. Curved or straight, all pipes should be judged, not by their bend or lack thereof, but for the content of its character ;)

1/8 or 1/4 bend for me, I voted half for sake of this poll.
PipeMonk, I feel uncomfortable every single time I see your avatar . . . my brain is always like, "Why the hell is he winking at me?!"

Hawke I think people are asking you to add 1/4 bent in the choices, bud.

I sure can

Voted Straight... although now that I'm getting a bit long in the tooth I would like to try a full bent pipe (of which I don't own any) ... I'm thinking it might be a bit more comfortable, as I'm a clencher, while doing various task's on the work bench. I seem to hit more things as i get older with with these straight pipes :lol:

I have a few bent pipes, but I tend to grab a straight pipe first. I just prefer my pipes to give me that randy, ready to go at it look, while bent pipes, just look saggy, flaccid, old walrus-y to me. But, on occasion, I will smoke a bent, but only if no ladies are around. I wouldn't want them getting the idea that I couldn't give it a go... the moment the flag drops.

I really love the look of a full-bent pipe, especially a billiard or similar, with a military bit. That's the shape that just says "Pipe!" to me.
But, when it comes to smoking, I like a boring old straight stem.
