Pipe Evangelist

[abram35]

There is only one thing that comes remotely close to enjoying a pipe and some fine tobacco. And that's converting someone to smoking a pipe. To date I have converted two people, one a non-smoker, the other a cigar smoker, and both in their early 20's. Does anyone else out there get as much pleasure as I do from bringing new people into the fold?

Yep, It's nice to introduce someone to the pleasures of pipe smoking. ::

It's funny that you call it pipe "evangelism" because I work with a ministry called Cru at college, and something we started last year was a thing called "the classy men". And basically it's this growing trend were all of us guys from the ministry meet up on a peninsula in the mississippi, build a fire, and smoke a pipe. Its pretty cool, and more and more guys are getting into it. I love showing new guys the joy of pipe smoking. Pipe smoking makes such a great atmosphere for good conversation too, at "the classy men" we get into deep convos about life and whatever. Pretty awesome!

I don't know about that, for me SEX is far ahead of pipe smoking.

That's kind of like giving up either food or water. Either way, you lose!

I have never converted anyone YET but I would be pleased to do so.

I converted both of my roommates. Both of them had previously smoked cigars and now they have pipes and aren't looking back :D I must say, it is really nice enjoying a smoke with my mates.

mrswims, have you ever thought that you actually converted one of your roommates, and the other one did it because the other two roommates were doing it? I am in the similar situation and i know one of my roommates started smoking pipes because the other ones did as well.

I have one friend who I just converted recently. He and I have been enjoying cigars together for awhile and when I picked my pipes backup I knew it was only a matter of time.
Helped him pick out a nice Savinelli Trevi a few weeks ago. Watching him go through the learning curve but he's getting there.
