>>60826I bought it from a local pipe artisan store, but wooden tobacco pipes like this aren't really good for weed because of how much sticky resin tar it creates. You should get a glass pipe from a headshop.
>>60827Pipes aren't smoked mainly for the nicotine effects, so I think a thread separate from a drug thread is warranted. If you don't believe in tasting subtle flavours that's fine, but you can't really speak about it if you haven't even tried it. There's also a collecting part of it like I said.

I smoke cigars. I prefer strong ones with dark wrapper leaf.
A pipe is handy for cigar smoking though because if you get a poorly constructed cigar (or the wrapper leaf unfurls mid-smoke) you can just tear it open and smoke the tobacco in the pipe.

>>67311Despite your failed normalfag fantasies, it's a myth that the married live longer, as a result of bad research that compares only the marital status of elderly people at the time of their death. Lifelong singles have been observed to be the group that lives the longest.
https://archive.is/4GQVU No.67314
>>67312the group that lives the longest, dying of a natural death, if they die of a natural death? what about those people that would have lived a lot longer if contemporary society wasnt pushing no-fault divorce. people that if you looked at their health status as compared to the lifelong single, before the marriage breakup and at an advanced age, they would be a lot better health. the damage and fallout from divorce undoubtedly shaves off decades and skews things.
statistics can be used to tell almost any story, lifelong singles living longer isnt a convincing one. a lifelong single is such an outlier that they're likely to be much more extreme variations, some very healthy, some very unhealthy.
being a lifelong single, that's going to affect your mental health that's going to make you anxious, neurotic, humans weren't meant for this, we werent meant to be alone like this. people respond to this differently, no small amount of fear involved either, thinking how you will be all on your own in late life. so you might become more health anxious, focus more on these little things you can control.
i would really like to have seen a data set that was pre 1960's. my educated guess is way fewer single people, and those that are single not living nearly as long. there is something on the horizon it has been there a long time, since the 00's i've been calling 2027. we will see something big happen, and it will very much change this data again.
think world wars, great depression, the stress and turmoil of these times, post-modernist fumbling, didn't affect all that data too?
what is at the heart of this question is does being single vs being in a healthy relationship, damage your health and lower life expectancy, all other things being equal? the answer is an unequivocal yes

That's one reason I wanted to try cigars as opposed to cigarettes. I know it's not like they're healthier, but I was guessing the fact you don't inhale made them slightly less worse for you.
I just thought the aesthetic of smoking looked cool, but I just might be too anxious over the health risks. I don't know if its worth it to just risk it anyways.

>>69130Google the rates of cancer among different types of smokers.
Cigarettes bring about significant, but lower than you might expect rates of cancer.
Cigars incur a very small increase in cancer rate. Mostly mouth cancer due to having the cigar held by rhe lips.
Pipe smoking does not increase the rate of contracting cancer of any sort. Indeed, pipe smokers on average live longer than non-smokers. That's not to suggest that smoking a pipe will help you live longer but rather that pipe smokers tend to have healthy habits elsewhere in their lives.
Smoking a pipe might make you look like a doofus depending on your age and appearance but it's the healthiest way of enjoying tobacco.
