Close Call

This happened just now.

I hadn't smoked all day and it's snowing real bad right now, so I went in the closet to smoke a quick hitter (gotta have two doors between the smell and the hall).

Stepdad with a broken foot happens to have walked down the stairs for the second time in over a month just as I'm coming out of the guest room that the closet is in and he asked me what I was doing.

I guess saying I was just getting something from the closet (which is full of my mom's old clothes) was sufficient enough because he just went on to ask me about the xbox kinect thing and didn't smell anything.

Moral of the story is I'm high and relieved instead of arguing with him :D

and always separate the smell from everyone else with at least two shut doors
 
don't smoke in your house dude. i've been caught twice now smoking in once in bathroom and another time in the garage.

it's just a bad idea, especially in a closet where the smell will linger on all the clothes. then one day when your mom decides to donate them to goodwill, w/e, she'll be wondering why they're either

a)febreezed to shit
b)reak of dank

don't do it at home
 
You're scared of getting caught and you smoke around your mothers clothing? Smoke sticks to clothing like glue. Although you did say old, so I guess the chances of her looking through them anywhere near the time you smoke it pretty low.

Also, bonus comment:
Stealth high tips: (coming from a guy who smokes regularly in his home while both parents think weed will; destroy his life).

Make a Sploof: Get the card from a toilet roll, get some toilet paper and stuff it full of it. Then get a square of toilet paper and use a elastic band to hold it over one end. When you breath out, breath into this, it's pretty amazing how well it works (literally no smell).
Although I find ganja smoke doesn't hang around long enough to be noticed. 5-20 mins and you can't smell it anymore. (From experience when parents walked in after I tann'd a bowl).

Ghost your hits: Pretty simple, just hold it in as long as you can, so when you breath it out there is no visible smoke, I've found if you can only see the smoke faintly, you still won't be able to smell it.

Pack small bowls: Makes ghosting easier and makes sure when your lungs are full the bowl doesn't continue to cherry and piss smoke everywhere.

Fabreeze or whatever you use is good but...: Using too much makes it apparent you're trying to hide something and only causes your parents to notice the smell it's trying to cover.

Always have a deck of cigs: So many times in my life I've been so close to getting caught as they can smell it. They ask me; "why does it smell of smoke". So I just say I smoked a cig, hand over the packet and all is well. Since I've been caught numerous times in this way they've given up on confiscating my deck and I don't even need a single cigarette on me to blame it on that. Although my parents are ignorant to the smell of bud, so they don't know the difference. :)
I was walking through town with them once and we passed a giant group of kids obviously smoking weed (the whole street stunk of it) so I get this big, shit eating grin on my face and look around at my family. They don't say anything and continue as though nothing out of the ordinary is happening. (I knew for a fact they'd comment if they knew what it was).

I find as long as I do 2&3 I can smoke just sitting in the middle of my room, leave the window closed and I will not get caught.

These are pretty well known, so I don't know if I've just regurgitated common stoner knowledge, but better to waste my time, than not pass on some tips that've helped me say undetected.

^^this works really good. a towel dampened with water works wonders also. but again make sure it's something you don't want anymore as doing this will leave tar marks on it.

on a side note, a few years back while on vacation i was staying in a hotel and i would go in the bathroom to smoke and exhale into a towel. after doing this all weekend and rotating the towel each time i smoked to get a fresh spot, the tar marks ended up forming an image that resembled jesus. i wish i still had the phone that i took the picture of that on. not that i actually believe that jesus manifested on the towel but it was still a trip to look at non the less.
 
I always used good ol' incense when I couldn't smoke inside. Allowed me to smoke anything except blunts, joints were questionable but I smoked at least 1 joint on most days from the age of 17 on, and my parents didn't care a huge amount about weed. I didn't have an outside facing window or a working fan either.

Covering your bowl also helps. I do it anyway because it makes the bowl last 1/3-1/2 longer, but just cover the bowl with a lighter or your fingers or a coin or anything of that nature after each hit so the cherry goes out, thus keeping the bowl from smoking into the air.

Ghosting hits helps too. If you have the cash you could consider getting a vaporizer, they don't smell much.
 
What i used to do was go downstairs, out the door, and light up outside.

Then my mom found out, accepted it and now i toke bong in my room.

What i'm trying to say is, why fuck around deodarizing, blowing smoke through special tubes, & all the other lame shit you do to hide a smoke. When you can just go outside and not worry?
 
The OP said it was snowing bad. I quit smoking outside when I was a kid because it was cold and shitty outside in the winter, although not snowing since I was in Texas. Still, smoking inside is much nicer then smoking outside. It's pretty easy to burn some incense or light a candle (doesn't work as well but used to work for me). Sploofs and shit like that don't seem very fun to me, I never really bothered with them except a few times in middle school, and opening a window when it's snowing also sucks.

I wouldn't recommend holding the smoke in your lungs at all. I'm not 100% on this but i heard that keeping the smoke in your lungs longer just does more damage to them (which makes alot sense) and it definatly doesn't get you higher (despite what some may claim. the "high" feeling you get is a dizzyness from a lack of oxygen)

Not trying to hate on your list just saying that you shouldnt do that ESPECIALLY if you smoke with a plastic bottle or pipe or tin foil or a pop can etc... any of those cheaply made things. Use metal or glass and that kinda stuff
 
Ahhh man close calls. I used to blaze in my house all the time, majority of times I got away with it because there was enough time to air shit out. But I got caught a decent amount of times. I remember when I was down in the basement. In the cold storage. Started smoking a joint, heard my dad coming down the stairs. Boom. Busted. I just stood in the closet and turned off the light, I was trapped, no where to go. My dad opens the door to me standing there with a burning joint in my hand looking ripped as fuck. ahah. The most common close call that would occur was the smell lingering for longer than usual, like if I was smoking in the computer room or something. My mom would walk in all pissed and say "you were smoking in here," my answer was always "no, I was breaking up roaches" - that usually worked.

Holding hits in definitely makes you much higher. It also, as you said, damages them more, so it's a trade off. I usually hold pipe hits in for 10-15 seconds.
 
^ No, it doesn't. Holding your hits in for 15 seconds is retarded. You getting 'higher' is just a lack of oxygen, not to mention all the extra tar and shit you'll absorb from the smoke.
 
^ I think you are wrong.
I have read that most of the THC is absorbed quickly into the lungs, but many other lovely chemicals take longer to be absorbed, so if you hold your hits in longer, you get a different quality high, as well as being higher.
I can hold my breath for 15 seconds without getting any mental effects from "lack of oxygen" that I might misinterpret as a high.
 
I agree, in my experience holding hits in seems to produce a stronger high. Oxygen deprivation doesn't get you high at all like weed does, I think I'd be able to tell the difference especially seeing as the effects of oxygen deprivation are more short lived.
 
I never smoked when I lived with my parents but even now I respect my roommates and the fact that they don't especially like the smell so I do what I can do minimize it. If I'm smoking anything other than the vape I put a towel under the door. And the other thing, which I'm kind of surprised nobody else has mentioned, is an air purifier. I got one that has a 3 step process: HEPA filter, UV light, and an ionizer, plus a smell masking pre-filter. You blow smoke in, nothing comes out. I just leave it on all the time because it keeps the room smelling fresh :).
