If smoking wasn't bad for you I'd be smoking a pipe as well as cigars and cigarettes. They're all so cool. Plus I like fancy lighters and the various other accoutrements that go along with smoking. And it'd give me something to do with my hands when I'm sitting around waiting for something....
Yeah, don't get me started on how cool smoking is with all the fun stuff and business to do. Except it only gives you something to do with your hands in the privacy of your own home anymore -- at least where I live, you can't smoke inside anywhere else.
Pipes have got to be less bad for you than cigarettes, don't they?
Like or dislike them, but their work needs to addressed in context.
Of course it does, just as Hemingway does and Jane Austen does. We are embedded in our time as a fly in amber.
But there's a difference between literary criticism and saying "this rubs me the wrong way". Lewis was very important to my youth and adolescence, and so was Tolkien. They shaped me. But their treatment of women also gives me hives. I don't see myself in their worlds; their worlds don't have room for me. (This isn't true of late Lewis, but it's certainly true of middle Lewis -- see That Hideous Strength.)

Aren't you smoking the same stuff? Pipes can have filters, but aren't they similar to cigarette filters? Or are they better?
I think water pipes are less bad....

Well, yeah, OK. But so fun!! And the smell!
When I was a kid, I liked the pipes that you could blow bubbles out of.
Also when I was a kid, I had an uncle who smoked a pipe. I haven't really been around anyone who's smoked tobacco in a pipe since, but I do remember I liked the smell.
I like the smell of gasoline, clearly I should start some sort of huffing habit. cool.
Gasoline, mmmm. Also hairspray.
Don't let msbelle try to talk you out of smoking. Smoking is cool, that ain't no lie.
My real problem right now is that I think I hate truth.com more than I hate Big Tobacco.
