Coke: left nostril versus right nostril

[despitedetroit]

is there a difference?
i've heard that coke done through your right nostril goes straight to your brain, whereas the left nostril goes somewhere else...it seems like another rumor, but i want to know for sure...
also, what are the differences between gumming coke and snorting it? If what i think is correct, then gumming it would produce a less intense high, that lasted longer, as well as your mouth being more numb..because it is absorbed by the salivary glands, while snorting would hit harder, faster, and not last as long, because it goes straight to your brain.
any clarification would be much appreciated...

what do you mean by this?? insufflated cocaine is absorbed through mucous membranes and the stomach when it inevitably drips down the back of your throat...

yeah, i always knew it was bogus, i guess i just didn't realize coke's method of absorbtion...crazy kids and their drug rumors.
whatever.

You would have to gum a hell of a lot of coke to feel anything. The absorbtion rate orally is not as high as if you rail it. Coke is such a subtile high anyway without the rush you get from snorting it you would be wasting your money (more so than normal that is).

Its the exact same. I recommend alternating nostrils per line, so the other has a little time to "rest".

Thats right! The right nostril goes to your brain and the left nostril goes straight for your balls.
On more of a serious note, gumming coke is a slightly different high to railing. I wouldn't agree that you need more coke gumming than snorting. Swallowing yes, gumming no. Let a line sized amount dissolve under your tongue and you'll be set.

Personnally i would not recomend putting it under your tongue for a few reasons...
One being it taste like shit. Then your mouth goes so numb that you feel like you just left the dentist and your bottom lip is hanging to your knees.. and on top of that you have to go to the bathroom...
Just snort.. alternate sides of the nose... then if both get clogged or irritated... take a few days off from the she-devil...

^- Cocaine tastes WONDERFUL.

would gumming it, even though it's not really cost effective, take away a lot of the bad effects of cocaine...because i've realized that coke can be a drug that can be used for good, like the people in other countries that chew the leaves for multiple beneficial reasons..and i know that because they chew the leaves that it's a more natural and healthier way of using in, then how Western people use it. so, would gumming the coke minimize the bad effects of cocaine, and be more natural on the body? or is it just gonna make me still have the same urges to do more, as snorting it? haha, that didn't come out right, i'm rambling..dumb coke, maybe you should just ignore this.

Stimulants are generally bad for you regardless of whether you snort them or not -- snorting them just tears up your nose.
