It started as a test briar to see what different tools would do. Long, long ago. Then one day I had to decide if it should just go in the trash. Seeing as how the briar came from American Pipes and was drilled by Tinski or one of his minions I popped a stem in it and fired it up. Now I only smoke it at night, to hide the shame of smoking an ugly pipe.

Maybe it's just my lack of meds, but I really like the looks of it!Behold! The Thing!

In my younger days I even remember reading the comics where the Human Torch was a robot or something and Iron Man had a bulky suit, couldn't fly and had roller skates. But the Thing was always my favorite.
I wondered when this horror show was going to make an appearance.Behold! The Thing!

Smokes well. Used for latakia blends. Nice to hold. Not a great clencher.

Well, you ARE the guy with the skull tattoo, right?? Show 'em that one!
Hey, now, Steve, that's gorgeous! (Yeah, yeah, I know, but you know how I am about my love for fat swoopy thick-bowled Danish types.)
In my opinion the only ugly pipe is the one that never gets smoked.
?Well since you brought up buttholes...did anyone else notice the elephant / whale dong trend in new pipes? I just don't get it.
And then there is the petrified nut sack.
Perfect for latakia bombs.To be honest, I wouldn't mind owning one of those screwdriver pipes either.
How about this one? I bet it smokes those urinal cake scented lakeland blends like a champ!
Yeah, goopy aromatics would probably leave to many shit streaksPerfect for latakia bombs.
