Pipe smokers under 25 on here???

[farmer93]

I was wondering if there were pipe smokers on here under 25. Just wanted to see. I feel like its not too common for anyone under 25 to smoke a pipe.

People under 25 are not allowed to post here. You must be at least 50 like the rest of us old grumpy bastards. You also must have yellow stained fingers with long gross finger nails loaded with nicotine. Hair growing out of you ears and nose that are long enough to be braided are also a must. lol
There are plenty of young guys here, you will fit in very easily and remember us old guys have no memory so you can definitely mess with us. Welcome to the site young master.

I remember 25! I quit my job, went back to grad school and met my bride. Tomorrow will be 22 years.

 

[rtg90]

23 right here!

Yeah, I think there are a number of twenty-somethings. In fact, that is one of the best

parts of Forums. Our society (if you'll pardon that grandiose term) is so segregated by

age, which is always a big mistake. Younger people need the history and perspective,

and even the grumpy-old-man/woman aspect from time to time. Whereas, the energy

and alertness and antenna for the future that younger people bring is priceless. So

stick around, farmer93. We are way more interesting and successful as a diverse and

various group than we are all sorted out by age and other characteristics. We get plenty

of that in most of our life activities. Hurrah for mixing it up. I go back to the Truman

administration, but some of the most interesting people I know are your age.

I was 25 once ...
(OK, the truth is that I've been 25 twice and am doing some good work on a third) ...

I'm just glad this forum doesn't have the same irritating spread of young pipe smokers as reddit pipes does. I.e, lord of the rings fanatics and hipsters.

 

[youngsterpuffer]

19 almost 20 here. Tried pipe smoking out when I was 16, with a grabow omega I still have, and Prince Albert. I came to this forum because I saw that this is the most knowledgable group around. I stay away from reddit because of hipsters.

I was 25 in 1999. That was also the year that I started selling the pipes I was making.

I'm Eighteen will be Nineteen tomorrow.

I turn 24 at the end of the month.

 

[12pups]

I'm not. But I was. (Counts for something, doesn't it?)
Pull up a chair and don't feel so rare -- you look at least 26 with that briar hanging from your jaw.

(Started smoking pipe at 10. And PS: I was a teacher for 24 years. Some of my last students are mid 20's -- and they not only smoke with me, but have taught me a few things. Educated little smokers are teaching their teacher!)

 

[lordofthepiperings]

I'm on my last year as a 20 year old, turned 29 in February.

I just turned 25 and started smoking a pipe regularly a year ago, best decision I've made. Nothing helps me relax during law school like a pipe while I read; especially a latakia blend while I write.

I turn 19 in June, started with the pipe at 15.

 

[ruger414]

I'll be 19 in a week and a half. I'm fairly new to pipe smoking as I didn't start until I turned 18. This forum is an awesome place for younger folks. Many of the posters here have been smoking pipes for 20+ years and are great sources of advice and guidance. Mentorship is extremely important for any art form and I find pipe smoking to be very much like art. The huge variety of pipes, styles, and tobaccos allows for a wealth of possible combinations and the folks here are a great guide to finding the perfect smoke!

I am 24 and have been smoking for almost a year I suppose. When I became interested this was the first place I found and haven't left since.

 

[cuchulain]

23 here. Been smoking off and on since I was 19. Managed to quit dipping two weeks ago.

 

[ruger414]

Cuchulain, congrats on quitting! I know it can be hard and I'm glad you were able to do it.

 

[cuchulain]

It's a stone bitch. The oral fixation is terrible. Plus it's not like I can smoke wherever I damn well please like I could with dip.
