Gibberings CXCV - Back in the day we'd change a thread title and it'd stay changed

[BecomingJulie]

I'm a post-roaching type of gal. I've tried pre-roaching, but never managed to get it to work properly. So I just stick with what I know works; and if anyone thinks any the less of me for that, so be it.

Also, I have a slightly crazy roach design, the Mark Three (I won't go on to describe the Mark Two or Mark One roach designs from which this is descended, unless someone actually asks): Take a standard roach card from a roach booklet, 52 mm. long by 18 mm. wide. Start off making a zig-zag fold, about 2 mm. wide, until you have just enough of a tail left over to take about two turns around the compressed core, so as it will leave at least one full turn when it is inserted into the end of the joint and allowed (maybe even persuaded with any sort of pointy metal thing) to expand. The outer turn pushes the toking end of the joint into its final shape and give it extra physical strength, while the zig-zag centre prevents any tobacco from entering your mouth while still leaving a good clear tokeway.

I'm impressed with your dedication, post roach is the only way, I liked to run a slight taper and pre-roaching hinders control of that ends diameter IMO.

Roaches rolled round the bit that pulls out of a clipper with a single right any fold to stop and flakes of tobacco getting drawn through was my technique.

I have rituals for many drugs but none as complex as I did for that, I can't recall the last time I smoked but I know it was some pollum, I managed to fluff it and gentle roll a small J and just smoke it like that. Weed doesnt agree with me anymore, either lack of tolerance or just I'm more flaky but the last few times I just got all panicky, crazy considering I used to smoke continuously and if I had weed would just add that to the hash, I never felt in the slightest bit anxious. I do wonder about the interaction with nicotine as these problems came after I gave up tobacco.

I always roll backwards (and I don't put the filtertip in afterwards--WTF is that about ). I don't like smoking excess paper.
Unbleached papers for me (Smoking Brown):

Filter tip ??? we are talking roaches as in rolled up card, I can see why you could put a filter tip in pre-roll as it has a fixed diameter.

Reverse rolling with a single paper is a deal easier, I'm not snobby about it all really just fascinated by just how much people get into their technique.

TBH 15 + years ago the range of papers was much less, rips were the only thing for a single skin and they were far to wide for my liking, I'm not sure when king size came out but it must have been at least the later 90s. with blues the first ones I saw, by then my technique was all about the small papers.

When you say smoking brown do you mean smoking heroin ?

This is called a filter tip:

do you mean smoking heroin ?

And err.. no, I'm not talking about smoking heroin here. Go get some sleep

Never seen such things, like I said i stopped smoking 15 years ago, brown is a pretty common term for heroin, I'm not down wiv the kids and your street lingo so I ask politely for clarification.

I've been up all night and you're the one that's all tetchy, I've been talking nonsense since before 2am and sleep isnt on the cards, I;d just let it wash over over you if your feeling all serious

You say you're not down wiv street lingo, but now you're telling me that the innocent "brown" is a common term for "heroin" (in the context of rolling papers nonetheless)

More probably, Smoking is the brand of papers and brown is the colour of the packet.

Well, if we're going to start naming names, then I'll say my favourite papers are OCB Slim Premium [other rolling papers are available], measuring 110 mm. long by 44 mm. wide; and when I could only get Smoking King Size [other rolling papers are available], which are 54 mm. wide, I found the extra centimetre of paper so unwieldy, I actually cut a strip of my skins. My favourite roaches are Quintessential chlorine-free Smoking Tips [other roach booklets are available], 52 mm. by 18 mm.

When I was living in France [other countries are available] -- wow, was that really 21 years ago?! -- my French puffin' partners used to break off about a centimetre and a half of a cigarette and roll that right into the toking end of a joint, instead of a cardboard roach. It was there also that I first learned to skin up on a beach, without getting sand in the joint.

Before that, when I was just a beginner skinner, I was humiliated beyond belief when a so-called friend asked for "anyone to skin up" -- then pointedly added, "except Simon". Cut to the quick (it was my hash as well, the ungrateful sod) I ran out before I could burst out crying, then went and locked myself in my room for a week; simply skinning up joint after joint, then tearing them open and re-skinning them and tearing them open again. I knew the practice had paid off, when he asked me to skin up; and of course I instantly forgave him his earlier remark, since I had actually learned a useful skill. (Also, my mother's side of the family had the capacity to harbour grudges literally for generations -- think not speaking to your own niece just because of something your sister said or did -- and that really wasn't me.)

I could respond but in all honesty I'm unable to decipher your post, I think I have established the answer to me simple query and ascertained that you do not consider the phase 'smoking brown' to have any chance of being mistaken for smoking heroin...... I'm guessing some connection to a new fangled boutique type rolling paper of which I would know nothing (as already noted)

As you were, smoke brown in any way you want along with your bespoke roach paper arrangement, you've one hands down on the classiest technique / ritual, confusing me gets no points, fish in a barrel and all that

I already said "no, I don't mean smoking heroin" a few posts up.

Here, I'll quote it for you.

And err.. no, I'm not talking about smoking heroin here.

Was that not clear enough for you? You really do sound like you need to get some sleep

 

[Allein]

I understood you didnt mean heroin just fine I just got the sense that you felt the suggestion that your post could be construed in such a way wasnt reasonable, when I thought and do that it was perfectly understandable conclusion to draw, all I did was clarify it with you as it didnt seem to fit with the general conversation.

As I said 'tetchy' your responses seem a little antagonistic, condescending even, crack on if that floats your boat.

I shall continue to gibber largely incoherent but jovial randomness, it's no where close to my bedtime yet but if you expect more coherence from me when I have had a nights sleep you need to prepare for disappointment :D

Shall we agree that I talk nonsense but you have managed to be even more pedantic than me and call it quits ?

Allein has been on form last eve, this morn...

And Felix :D

This must be like how ScotchMist closes threads. "If you type it, it happens".

I'm not sure that's how the software works.

is this it, sammy? even your ‘suicide by cop' is vaginal. not like i should have expected anything different.

You're an admin now, baooozs. I think it's disgusting the way you're poking fun of someone with a mental illness. Being suicidal n having mental ill health is no joke. And this is EADD not the lounge.

I REALLY miss alasdair as an admin. He was really good at what he did. Is it a wonder I don't come here now

By the way guess who's ban ends Saturday

i agree with everything you said evey.

must resist dig at bozo must must resist

 

[Eveleivibe]

Bozo? I like that lol

Right I'm off. I only popped in to give a few opinion. Back to the real world now. Seeya all around

PS: they're reducing me 2moro to 2mg suboxone n 2, 400mcg subutex. They're finally reducing me!!!! Can't wait. Subutex is meant to be better than suboxone cause there's no naloxone. May as well enjoy myself before I end my chapter with drugs for good i'm finally getting on subutex YES :D

You are claiming that my post didn't seem to fit with the general conversation?! I posted about rolling papers in a conversation about rolling papers! What the actual fuck, ya incoherent gibberer
