Proposed: Hipster millennials are GOOD for pipe smoking

[unkleyoda]

I'm fine with it. If it keeps the companies making the products I like, all the better.
Side note: we have plenty of hipsters where I live. Oddly I haven't seen any of them with pipes. We are the home of Eaux Claires Festival (see the beer glass in my signature picture), which is hipster central. The Eaux Claires Festival is so hipster, this year they didn't even announce the acts that were playing. If you wanted to find out who was playing, you had to show up.

@anthonyrosenthal74 ... I'm actually wearing suspenders with a curly moustache right now, smoking a cob. I can't help it, I just turned into a stereotype somehow.

Oh hell, a cob? I thought that maybe they'd like real pipes. Ha ha! ::
Wait, before you cob guys curb stomp me, I was kidding, kidding.

 

[molach95]

@Cosmic - I certainly do, that's why I'm smoking this cherry black cavendish aromatic in a cob. Don't want to ghost the good ones now, do we?

That's why I smoke CB Grape in a Dunhill. The cobs are for the good stuff.

On this topic I will give major props to Brian Levine and everyone involved with the Pipes Radio show. He does a GREAT job interviewing pipe makers and tobacco blenders from all walks of life and varying ages. He keeps it all about pipes and tobacco for all to enjoy.

I heard he only smokes Esoterica in his cobs...and maybe some BF every now and then.

Anyone who wants to enjoy a pipe loaded with tobacco is fine with me. That's the substance. The rest is style.

Enough said. ::

I may not be the Millennials' biggest fan, but how do the Baby Boomers get to destroy an entire country, pretend they made it "better", and not get any blowback?

Actually, I think you can thank Johnson and MacArthur (who were not Baby Boomers) and the lies they told the US Citizens, during the Viet Nam war, for sending this Country in a completely different direction. Granted, the Baby Boomers did little to right the ship.

IBTL

Acronyms always throw me off. What is IBTL warren?

 

[aldecaker]

MacArthur or McNamara? Usually when I think of egregious liars from the Vietnam era, I think of Bob instead of Douglas. But either way, you're right. I was thinking specifically of my old nemesis, the hippies, who spent their entitled youth destroying the social fabric of the country, then as a special bonus, all decided to go back to school and then ruin the economy and the justice system as finance swine and lawyers.

In Before The Lock. Once people start talking politics, it's always a downhill slide before the mods have to come in and shut the thread down.

We're not talking politics. We're discussing history! :D

Definitely the justice system.
I think this thread is destined for closure? Get your comments in while you can.

Lex, I apologize in advance if I get your thread closed. Not my intention. I agree with your assessment on hipsters smoking pipes.
