The (Un)Official PipesMagazine Secret Santa Thread 2022!

[scloyd]

Dan posted this just before last year's Secret Santa was shut down. Check out the stats (underlined).

And so, we bid adieu to the 2021 (Un)Official Secret Santa Extravaganza, the most extravagant of all the Secret Santa Extravaganzas so far. 112 pages and over 2000 posts! At times, I wasn't sure we were going to make it, but thanks to you, we've had our most successful run ever. 81 participants from around the world sharing love, friendship, tobacco and highly offensive humor. Who could ask for a better gift than that?

Let's set a new record. We can do it.

Neither did I! But that would explain the formal wear

Kinda reminds me of the outfits in dumb&dumber.

You know which ones I mean

I’m in! Always fun to watch. PLEASE GOD, NO DARK FIRED KENTUCKY! You’ll put me back in the hospital!

I can smoke many things, as long as they aren’t heavy, obviously polarizing aromatics, lakelands, or anything with more than a small percentage of perique, and again, importantly, with gusto, No DFK.
Above all things, I like good VA’s, straight or blended, and good englishes, both of which I enjoy rich in flavor and not too crazy in the nicotine department, but to help with that metric with Englishes, something like G.L.P’s Gaslight going too far in flavor, as it’s like smoking asphalt to me. I love SPC’s Bourbon Barrel Aged! Orientals are great! I love a blend that is well balanced! If you are left wondering what I mean when I say a good “blank” blend, I mean the stuff you know is good, stuff that smokes well and pleasant. Above all things, Happy Holidays and good tidings!

Tree bark? Wood shavings? These and mulberry leaves were popular additions to tobacco being shipped from the colonies to Blighty during 17th century.
