I would always get pissed off when I saw people using a straw/bill to snort drugs.

Always seemed pointless and dumb, and I call people out for it.
Like... Just use your nose, it's much better.


Can someone explain the appeal of this?
Are people just that bad that they need an aid to snort shit?


Also, money is fucking disgusting.


So.. Wtf?
 
Money bills $ £ Euros, should not be used to snort, nothing dirtier, unless it's a crisp 500Euro bill that no one else has touched, using a bill to snort started mainly i presume for both the practical reason, that you nearly allways have a bill on you... also, back in the day, cocaine, used to be a stricktly rich persons drug, hence they would use crisp 100$ bills n such, that hadn't been handled by multiple people and acumulated loads of bacteria...

People see this practice done in films such as "Scarface" or "pulp fiction" and simply replicate...

Anyways, changing straws after each use is preferable (at some bigger raves here and elsewhere they hand out paper straws, which clearly say, to be used once only, you get a shitload of em for your rave, these are given out (amongst other things, educational pamphlets and more...) at HR stands, held by assossiations for drug HR)

Also for everyones info, you can transmit, or get hepatitis B from sharing straws, as well as other less serious things, but the Hep B is a real danger sharing straws...

Obviously nearly nobody abides 100% by the no using $ bills or sharing straws, people who snort drugs are often addicts, and not the most careful with their health... (ie. you're out and all you have to snort is a dollar bill, you're fiending, can't get anything alse to make do, very likely you'll use it.

This is HR, don't want people thinking, snorting with a $ bill = disease, infection etc. but if you have something alse handy ( a recent reciept, postits, clean sheats of a4 paper you can tear or cut, then yeah def do so...)

Mbazie55 r you ok? you seem a bit angry or tense from your 2 last posts i read... don't hesitate shoot me a PM if you want to unload some baggage, talk a bit or whatever yeah :)
 
Yeah, money is disgusting. I was just thinking about how cliche it is to do coke with a $100..

But if you're saying to JUST use your nose, and no straw or anything, that's pretty difficult. I tried a couple times, ended up with powder all over my face and couldn't get a good line...

I used to always carry an extra straw (the fat ones from McDonald's are awesome) in my wallet juuust in case.
 
Some people don't get enough suction to effectively snort without some sort of straw. It also allows you to, er, direct your snorting to an easily controlled area.

Really it's all down to personal preference.
 
i use dollar bills because i dont like straws
straws arent wide enough imo and i always cut myself when i use straws
i exclusively roll up paper (even regular ass paper sometimes) or dollar bills
i oftentimes use my social security card lol
 
Meh, whatever's to hand.

Sharing straws/using money is a pretty effective way to insuffulate some sinus infections, though.
 
ehh i used to snort heroin off of my hand when i had moeny in my wallet mane
cause id be like walkign down the street and i'd dump a bag out like near in between my thumb and my pointer finger and just bring it up to my nose
my nose would always be covered in white after that though
but i saw a dealer do that and i started snorting dope that way as well (only when in public...and that was a long long time ago cause i dont sniff shit anymore ya know)
 
Well I have to say that a lot of people don't have the best hygienic practices and hand washing gets sadly neglected so in some cases a straw fresh out of a wrapper is probably a lot cleaner than using your hand as long as you aren't sharing it with anyone else.
 
lol snorting with bare hands is just ridiculous,you cannot accurately aim into your nose so alot of the powder will prolly go to waste.Only seen this done by some ghetto kid in gangsta movies,or by some drug dealer that needs a quick bump but cannot leave his post(so he is forced to do it publicly).

Straws is the way to go,cut 5-6 pieces before u leave home and your golden,although lets be honest,if youre dopesick in some back alley and just scored and you feel like dying from WDs,you gonna snort that shit with pretty much anything available..
 
you can go into any 7/11 or am/pm and grab a straw, they have regular and fat sizes also. They're in the wrapper so they are clean and you can grab however many you want. But a few and then cut them to size should be sufficient. You can also just buy a box from the store but those are almost the flex kind and they suck. Back when I used to do lines (long ass time ago) I had a glass straw which was clean/washable. Also used to have a bullet that screwed on top of the vile turn upside down open the shot fill the slot, turn it half was so it was closed, flip it back up turn the slot all the way up put it to your nose sniff, no mess no straw, no mirror etc. Dont know if they still have those though. But that can be just as dirty as anything else if more than one of ya is putting it to your nose.

Thanks for the flashback - we used to call that device a "Pocket Rocket". Worked well at concerts for instance, and on the road.

bare hands works with heroin at least
i used to dump a whole bag on my joint, sniff sniff, dump another on, sniff sniff.
you have to bring it right up to ya nose but it works
i knew someone who i never saw sniff it any way OTHER than that even when we'd be on his couch
given they were of the "ghetto" temperament but
 
So you just stick your nose up to it and snort, that seems far more difficult than using some sort of sniffing device. Honestly the idea of doing it that way is asinine and I find it amazing you judge those who do it hte more normal way. Now I will say I do not like using bills at all (granted its gross but its more because they are a pain to keep rolled tight and are not long enough) and only do so in situations where its the only option. The best option is a bic pen with the tip, cap on back and cartridge removed. You can cut it down if you prefer but I like the full length because the longer the tube, the more the powder will distribute through the air in the straw and be able to cover larger surface area of the nasal membranes.
 
A rolled up dollar bill here = a charge, residue another charge. a straw (uncut) is innocuous, provided it's not laying on a mirror with a big pile of blow. lol

Also, most people's facial geometry is not such so that they could snort unaided w/o putting their face thru the insufflation surface.

Something I don that I have few others do is blow my nose well before I snort something. ... dont want good drugs getting caught in a booger.
 
ya i think its kinda a dumb question to begin with (sorry)...

like have you ever had lines racked out and just used your nose? doubt you have cuz otherwise you wouldn't have asked this ahahahaha

definitely easier and more effective (as sekio mentioned) way to insufflate
 
Wat.

Put powder on CD case (or any flat surface) put under nose, snort.

I've never lost any powder using my nose.

A straw/bill is just pointless IMO.
Honestly kind of appalled that this many people need a straw.

Kind of easier to just use the thing that's attached to your body, rather than something you have to find.
