Zrothum Posted January 3, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 3, 2007 It's alot easier to bring a tobacoo pipe into a bar than a hookah. Therefore, for public settings, pipes are better for tobacco than hookahs. And so are handlebar moustaches. I need to grow it back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EtsoShex Posted January 3, 2007 Report Share Posted January 3, 2007 If you're smoking a pipe with the likeness of Sherlock Holmes on it, you'd better be wearing one of those double-billed mystery-solver hats, and you'd best be solving a mystery.

Zrothum Posted January 3, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 3, 2007 Meerschaum makes some other awesome pipes, not all are artistic carvings. Meerschaum is actually the material it is made out of. It changes color over time due to the heat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deykari Posted January 3, 2007 Report Share Posted January 3, 2007 Don't worry Zrothum, we would still actually think you're cool, even if you didn't smoke. Dey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zrothum Posted January 3, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 3, 2007 I never smoked a day in my life through high school....I doubt I'd start it now, worrying about being "cool" I mean hell.....I play a MUD. That totally eliminates my "cool" factor at a bar. Hey baby, you wanna come over to my place and watch me PK some lowbies, while you smoke my pipe?

Deykari Posted January 3, 2007 Report Share Posted January 3, 2007 What happened to the days of banter with people? You're supposed to pick out one of my flaws, use it against me, we waste 2 pages back and forth then we clap each other on the back and buy each other pints. Except...this isn't real life, so we'd sort of...not clap each other on the back and buy pints. Please tell me the innuendo in your last sentance was intentional.

Zrothum Posted January 3, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 3, 2007 It was. And...and.........stop being so damned english. We don't buy each other pints here. We shoot up each others' houses and steal their wives. That's the american way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deykari Posted January 3, 2007 Report Share Posted January 3, 2007 That sounds like too much effort. Pint of the good stuff, and sit down at a table with a nice Steak and Ale pie and a couple of Yorkshire Puddings, enjoy, and watch the Wives come to you. That's the English way.

Zrothum Posted January 4, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 4, 2007 Ale pie? hahhaha I'm going to a pub called the Ale House tomorrow night actually...hrmm..... blood damned english ways are coming on to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deykari Posted January 4, 2007 Report Share Posted January 4, 2007 Yeah, it's steak in ale gravy. Not actually steak in ale. Dey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zrothum Posted January 4, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 4, 2007 No graham cracker crust?! No warm apple filling?! Man, you english people have no idea how to make good pie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deykari Posted January 4, 2007 Report Share Posted January 4, 2007 ...apple filling? Right. Steak and ale pie, is something you have as MAIN COURSE. It's like..steak, gravy..in pastry. It's not the type of thing you have as a dessert like an Apple Pie. Two totally different types of pie over here. Dey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zrothum Posted January 4, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 4, 2007 I understand the concept. But it's still not pie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deykari Posted January 4, 2007 Report Share Posted January 4, 2007 There's only one person who can settle this and that's Master of Pie. But until he gets here: pie1 (pī) pronunciation n. 1. A baked food composed of a pastry shell filled with fruit, meat, cheese, or other ingredients, and usually covered with a pastry crust. 2. A layer cake having cream, custard, or jelly filling. 3. A whole that can be shared: “That would . . . enlarge the economic pie by making the most productive use of every investment dollar” (New York Times). pie1 /paɪ/ Pronunciation Key - Show Spelled Pronunciation[pahy] Pronunciation Key - Show IPA Pronunciation –noun 1. a baked food having a filling of fruit, meat, pudding, etc., prepared in a pastry-lined pan or dish and often topped with a pastry crust: apple pie; meat pie. 2. a layer cake with a filling of custard, cream jelly, or the like: chocolate cream pie. 3. a total or whole that can be divided: They want a bigger part of the profit pie. 4. an activity or affair: He has his finger in the political pie too. 5. pizza. —Idioms 6. easy as pie, extremely easy or simple. 7. nice as pie, extremely well-behaved, agreeable, or the like: The children were nice as pie. 8. pie in the sky, a. the illusory prospect of future benefits: Political promises are often pie in the sky. b. a state of perfect happiness; utopia: to promise pie in the sky. So it is pie. We also get 10 points for having the most pointless discussion ever. Dey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zrothum Posted January 4, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 4, 2007 Is your steak served in a pastry lined pan? Does it have a filling? Does it have a pastry shell? None of the above? It is not a pie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deykari Posted January 4, 2007 Report Share Posted January 4, 2007 The filling would be the steak and ale. Yes, it does have a pastry shell, like I explained earlier. Yes, it is served in a pastry-lined pan if you go to a proper place for it. Otherwise it's just served on a plate. It is essentially an apple pie...sans apple, avec steak & gravy. Then some bright spark took the next step and invented the Steak Bake - it's like a a steak pie you eat on the move, £0.40 at your local Woodheads.

Deykari Posted January 4, 2007 Report Share Posted January 4, 2007 Well it's a known fact that all English people are farmers, so we have tough, rough-skinned hands. So we just hold our steaming-hot steak bakes in our bare hands, saving on packaging costs whilst having a tasty snack part the way through hunting bears and herding cattle or whatever it is farmers do.

Dey That's so English. Thinking of only themselves. What about the economy! The packagers are the ones who buy the products! Don't buy their services and they won't have the money to buy your high-priced products! Sheesh...........nevermind, forgot who I was talking to.....
