i didn't even know you could vape it until the other day. obvs it's totally illegal in the UK and always has been although there are a few pubs near me that take a liberal attitude to these things if you're discreet.

Always find that while a joint doesn't have the instant deep impact of a bong hit, over time it delivers the longer lasting and more satisfying smoke.
Also, as an ex-smoker I still like sucking on a little tube of pleasure.
― Foster Twelvetrees (Ward Fowler), Wednesday, 26 October 2016 15:44 (seven years ago) link
best way to smoke is to fill up a chamber thick with smoke, soak two long strings (thin ropes work too) in it for 2 minutes, tie up the smoky strings tautly across the room, *pluck* the strings so you can see them oscillate (strobe lights help) and then run under the vibrating strings, catching a perfect whiff as you pass by

one thing about a joint is if you can roll a nice tight one that draws easy you feel kinda cool. or maybe -you- don't, idk, but back when I was a cigarette smoker who sometimes rolled his own, I liked the "nice!" response if several of us would be sitting around and the question 'can anybody roll joints?' would come up. rolling up a doob and smoking it...it's just a different vibe
HOWEVER, in the age of heavily cultivated sticky ass buds, it's a fuckload harder to roll a decent J, so bowls it is generally

you're totally right - just could never roll a joint :'(could roll cigs though, and so I could roll small joints...

i don't have much time for bongs, they gross me out a little and i always take too big of a hit
chillums are my default, they are easy to use and discreet. someday i'll get a vaporizer but i think we are still a ways away from really reliable and consistent vapes
― marcos, Wednesday, 26 October 2016 18:51 (seven years ago) link
i like the high through from a vaporizer
Joints always give me a throwback, drinking-shitty-beer-out-of-cans, high school party sort of feeling which is great but they're impractical for solo use. They're smelly and and an entire one of 20%+ THC weed would totally cripple me. The pre-rolls at the stores are always 1 gram apiece and it usually takes me 2 weeks or so to go through a that much in my normal use.

Bowls all the way, because you can totes magyver one out of a sheet of aluminum foil, a soda can, or an apple.

THC appears to combat Alzheimer's to some degree, so maybe the tin-foil just gets offset. Yeah, that's the ticket

The last time I smoked a cigarette I bought some of those pre-roll cones for lazy joints and some loose American Spirit tobacco. It was the first nicotine buzz I'd had since W's first year in office, honestly pretty nice.

Perhaps best answered in the throes of additction.
smoking disgusting Top brand roll ups without a filter when you don't have enough $ for a pouch of Drum, swallowing little bits of it, and trying to spit them out when you have cottonmouth VS scraping resin out of your bowl and smoking it when your supply runs out
cigarettes ftw

Never really understood the roll-your-own crowd, when factory made cigarettes were perfected circa 1910.

There *are* smokers who prefer the flavor or bite of roll your owns, but it's rare, and they def don't smoke Top. Most ppl who smoke em do so because it's what they can afford.

Was cooking dinner the other night, annoyed about the pungent aroma of the weed that my son has been bongripping in the garage, when I accidentally spilled some oregano on the stove burner. I was like "Yes! This is what weed should smell like!" We need weed that has been stepped on with kitchen spices again.

I'm lucky I never got into cigs. feel like I should've at some point because pretty much all my friends smoke. it was pretty obnoxious that they'd all go out for a smoke break every hour and I'd just be left inside sitting on my hands. eventually I started going out with them and smoking some myself but I never liked it. I tell myself I don't do it for health reasons, or because I hate smelling like smoke (especially being married to a non-smoker), or because it fucking sucks having to constantly go outside when you live in a state where it's cold 7 months out of the year, but the reality is I never caught anything more than a mild buzz off it
weed was kinda the same thing for a while because we got that cheap shit that high schoolers get, which maybe was actually cut with spices and brillo pads. I remember rolling really awful Js and then spending the next 2 hours thinking "am I high yet?". all I remember is getting a little freaked out by the Simpsons. then we got some actual decent weed and it changed everything. 15 minutes in I'm physically unable to stop headbanging to "Mother Sky" by Can and I'm just like...hmmm...now I get it. it's nice. I still try to do more edibles for the sake of my lungs though. I don't really like that feeling that you've burned the back of your throat or the pipes that lead to your ears.

I have never successfully smoked a cigarette. Just can't.
For a while I lived in Richmond, Virginia, a tobacco-centric city, surrounded by smokers... I love the smell of drying tobacco.
Every few years I would buy a pack of unfiltered Camels out of love for the design and for the smell when freshly opened pack of Camels.
Burning them, though... the smoker quickly gets nose-blind to the smell and it's infinitely worse when burning than before.
As a silly English major I smoked a pipe for a while - nose-blindedness is a problem there too. Pipe tobacco can be quite nice but the smoker doesn't smell it in the same way as a nonsmoker does. These dynamics get glossed over but to me they are important factors.
I have smoked plenty of weed but prefer gummies these days.

i'm in brooklyn for the first time since legalization. i hadn't really fully clocked that you can legally smoke weed anywhere it's legal to smoke tobacco. the smell of weed is eeeeverywhere. people just toking out in front of the police station. it is absolutely wild. can very easily imagine people going to the airport and forgetting they have a joint in their backpack. you know, people that are not me
― Tracer Hand, Monday, 24 April 2023 21:10 (one year ago) link
i'm a little suspect of your average bodega weed, but i like that it's possible to buy weed at any time pretty much anywhere now. smell of brooklyn in the summer is very much weed + match light charcoal.

Ohare has "cannabis amnesty" boxes for folks who wind up at the airport with an overlooked spliff in their pocket...

I have seen those, and pretty much just assume that it's a rotating privilege among security and TSA staff to "safely dispose" of the contents of the amnesty boxes.

A rather more daring, slightly more ACAB-minded person than myself might consider testing this hypothesis by putting some drug-like substances in there, but with decidedly unsavory ingredients.
Here you go, O'Hare cops! Enjoy this dime bag of oregano and rat poison!
Oh hey, what's this that I just discovered in my luggage? Could it be a half a cup of dried basil mixed with a tablespoon of fentanyl? I dunno. I guess you'd better check!

― when you wish upon a tsar (Ye Mad Puffin), Monday, 24 April 2023 22:04 (one year ago) link
My understanding (gleaned through conversations with Phish heads, so maybe find secondary confirmation) is that the TSA don't realy care about weed anymore, although local police in the city you're flying into might, and carrying it over international borders is, of course, bad.

xp to peace, man: when I crave solid, actionable information about the state of American law enforcement and jurisprudence, I always look to my favorite jam-band forums.
I probably would have known nothing about the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 2016, were it not for my bros on the DMBfanz board. Those dudes totally helped me understand both the controversial fiscal policy of quantitative easing, AND the awesomeness of the bassline of "Ants Marching."
My DMB-adjacent homies have so far been quiet about the intricacies of cannabis enforcement in major US airports, but that's probably because Chad is taking a nap and the rest of the guys are out playing Ultimate in the quad.
And ums otm, I'm sure 85% of the time they don't want to have to parse the complexities of whether you're flying from a legal jurisdiction to an illegal one or vice versa.
