Holy shitballs! That was a rather entertaining read. The old "Can't look away" phenomenon. To be Frank, the Frank Method sounds pretty solid, if the name is any indication.

My favorite post of the year was in the for sale section. Someone came in looking to sell some tobacco. I'm sure he's an awesome fella. The kinda guy who would offer to stand behind you on your first day in the prison shower and hold your hips steady while you bend over to retrieve the soap. Anyways, this poster was looking sell some Esoterica. He wanted 4X+ retail. Apparently he and his partner (I'm assuming it was Martin Shkreli) had taken a row boat all the way to across the Atlantic, picked up the virginia's in Africa, the Oriental's in Turkey and the Latakia's in Cyprus and rowed them all the way over to the isle of Jersey where it could be lovingly made into Esoterica Tobacco and then rowed it back all by themselves without stopping so we could enjoy it. Oh yeah and he also asked for money for shipping. Well, me. I can really appreciate all that time and effort he went through to get us that product and all he wanted was the low low price of 4X+ retail! And he wasn't even asking for a reach around. But then jpmcwjr replied to his post...
And I have to admit, I laughed as the thread cascaded.

And we've had pictures of said ships, and shipmates in signatures. Thank goodness AdBlocker clearer up that mess.
^^^This!!! This is the Best of 2019!???
It was a toss up between all the smart ass commentary and leg-pulling on the overtly political threads that were (a) started expressly to blow up the forum and hilariously went sideways until the mods gathered themselves back up from laughing and snorking coffee through their noses and ended it; and (b) those that started innocently and rapidly devolved into a shit show until the mods stopped laughing and mopping coffee off their keyboards long enough to shut it down. Scored some really sweet IBTL's!!!! WINNING!
Either way, I now have a Lexan sneeze (coffee) guard on my computer and both provided many hours of amusement. Gotta think the mods had some fun watching those too. Pity about all the wasted coffee....
Honorable mentions to didimauw's zombie pipe threads and the one pipe for one year threads. Both great.

I believe it was in 2019 that the "pinhead" thread occurred.
Some may recall that simultaneously hilarious and tragic event.

Epic thread that! Well worth the read.
New post deleted. Why? :: Pipe Smoking Basics & Beginner Questions
I have just checked to see if I had any response for a post I had put up this morning. I asked if anyone has tried Mr. B's tobacco and asked for feed back. I am thinking of trying some. I notice that teh post does not exist anymore I have received no message indicating why? Anyone have any...

Epic thread that! Well worth the read.
Six pages devoted to making fun of someone's screen name? I think I'll head back to reading the hour by hour account of what Jiminks is smoking today--it's a real page turner.
Uh oh. Looks like someone needs to be ‘jumped in’. ??

My Best of 2019 was finding this forum and getting to know some of you fine people.
LOL ... thanks for finding that...I thought it had been deleted.
Thanks for linking that Frank Method thread. It reminded me of the 2000s when VBulletin forums were king and sockpuppet accounts abounded. Anyone figure out who smokingcricket was?
