[QUOTE="Handsome Dynamite, post: 128003, member: 975"] They all usually bother me. Being twenty, smoking a pipe and not small in anyway, it's hard for me to go unnoticed. The comment that always gets me is "Now that's classy." or some configuration of that. Do they mean that as a compliment or an insult? Since obviously in my worn boots, oil stained jeans, tshirt and leather jacket, I'm far from class. But whatever. I do smoke it in public some, at campus I often to, deciding not to care anymore what people think. However one day some people in a window from a second floor hall held up a sharpie written sign that said 'Nice pipe ***". I went to the hall and they were now just on a laptop. I asked them what the sign said, pretending I couldn't read it. Their faces were priceless. People thinking it's drugs is all to common. I've had cops smell the bowl, people start going into a ten minute thing about pot, which I don't smoke, so I just sat smoking, wishing a friend would walk by. Sometimes another pipe smoker finds me this way. Some girls tend to like it, so that's a plus, or it could just be giving them an opportunity to approach me... Long of the short of it. I get good and bad reactions, but I think the bad ones stick out more, won't stop me from smoking though. [/QUOTE]
