Pipes do not make you look cool; if you actually DO look cool pipe will make you look less cool unless you are actually cool enough to make the pipe look more cool, which you are not.
It is not about looking any sort of way, it is about enjoying the substance nicotine and the plant tobacco from which it comes.
Don't do stupid shit like spending hours worrying about perfecting some dilletante method of packing or worrying about cake or such... figure out how to stuff some tobacco in it in a manner which burns well... this differs by the tobacco and the MOST important part if the prep and drying of the tobacco, so obsessing over packing technique is a stupid waste of time.
Try Prince Albert and some of the basic, non-pretentious brands that have been around for years. Don't fall into memebaccos.
Enjoy.
