I'm basically like a mentally-challenged owl. ?

Yeh, if one can't take the mild answers that you got here, I'm not sure what forum would be more your speed. Try asking us a Starcat type question. We'll blow your mind, ha ha.
All my tampers are part of my IM Corona Pipemasters and when done using it, I wipe off any dirt with my finger.
I wipe it with my finger. If I need to keep clean hands then I will pop it straight into my pocket or wipe it on some grass or leaf!
A bit late to this but just in case OP is still checking answers....
I only ever smoke outdoors. I will usually have a small pipe bag (Peterson2-pipe) or a pipe roll (Sorringowl) with me (which depends... ...not sure what it depends on but for some reason I gravitate to the Peterson bag at weekends if I am out with my wife and the pipe roll at all other times since it fits into a side pocket on my usual edc rucksack).
If I'm sitting and smoking then the tamper simply goes back in the bag/roll as is (never really occurred to me to clean it regularly... ...although occasionally it gets a wipe on the jeans).
If I'm lunting or simply loitering in the street outside my apartment then it simply goes back in my jeans/shorts pocket as does the pipe (incidentally; if I'm popping into the bank or a shop whilst lunting I'll tamp the pipe a bit and stick it in my pocket and just hope I don't catch fire).

Python probably gently told him to capitalize, and it freaked the heck out of him, ha ha. I read through the first few posts where he thought they were being funny (or maybe wise guys), but they all looked like legit responses to me.
Maybe there was only one correct answer and none of us got it right?

Wait, we're supposed to wipe it off? Why didn't y'all tell me?!
Quick, someone make a YouTube video that covers this.

Just imagine what would have happened if he'd asked a question about Black Frigate (or cleaning fluid)
funny thing about the internet is how much it allows for jerks to really up their jerk game or in other words gentle ribbing may come across a lot worse then it really was intended. As a preamble towards more abusive behavior. Or something like that. It's hard to say. Maybe they just realized we're not as cool as fictional characters like Sherlock Holmes or Mark Twain make us look and they got out while they could. Just saying watch e-bay for some almost new pipes. Seriously though hope the OP looks around and sees that while we might be silly we're rarely mean.
A fellow stops in at the local breakfast diner, walks over to the old farts’ table, and asks them for the best way to tie his shoelaces.
“Son, we wear boots.”
“My boots don’t have laces.”
“I only lace my boots half way up, wrap the around behind to take up slack, and tie a double bow in front. “
“I lace mine all the way up, with my pants tucked inside.”
“I wear pull-on Wellingtons, and wear flea collars on each one to protect against chiggers and elephants,”
Then there’s Jed, over in the corner, mumbling something about “...a pretty mouth.....”
The fellow learned lots of good information; the best was to steer clear of ‘ol Jed.

You'd think someone would scan through a few threads to check to see what the water temp is before just jumping in.
Maybe we're wrong. Maybe he is just taking a break from us.
I just jumped in, but then again I'am a chatty bastard and had to comment on the first post I looked up.You'd think someone would scan through a few threads to check to see what the water temp is before just jumping in.

Weird sequence of events with the OP’er. He was also the guy that asked what “PPP” meant and got all fired up there too. It seems he may be gone, but no one called him names, made fun of him, or abused him in any way. What an odd set of expectations, that we would give concise, precise answers only and if any tomfoolery comes out he’s offended. Perhaps the breathing holes in the plasticmask are too small and restrictive?

Welcome to the internet! Where you will meet wise elders, irrefutable nerds, plenty of trolls, the occasional wizard, and folks that manage to be all of the above rolled into one. If you're lucky, you may get a chance to ride a unicorn once or twice, I say as I load a bowl of McClelland Orient 996 into my 60's? Peterson Churchwarden, both of which I would never have gotten the opportunity to own if I hadn't come to this forum with a good sense of humor!
I actually just thought of a better method than the ear wax one. Take your tamper, wipe it under your ball sack real good, then use one of those Dunhill polishing cloths to male that bitch shine. Yeah, I know, I am a genius.
I bet you're a lot of fun in grocery stores. Ha ha.
Or a dressed up, cane-wielding lion. Roarrr!

That's odd. I thought you were either a member (whether posting or non-posting or long gone) or an Anonymous (banned). We now have in-betweens with the new platform? Can members now unregister themselves? ? Throughout my nigh 21 years experience on Internet forums, accounts deactivation/deletion were solely the province of the staff.
You should see me when some bitch goes through the speed line set for 11 items with a shit load of stuff. My first question is always do you know how to add? If they answer yes then I say so you are just being a bitch because that is your nature? If she says she didn't realize she had so many items and ix contrite, I will politely ask her to review her remedial math.I bet you're a lot of fun in grocery stores. Ha ha.
