Do Americans smoke bud weird or is it just the media portraying it this way?

[angeleyes]

of course it's not like that irl, you're talking about a movie ffs

Is this just the media that doesn't know how to smoke a cone?

PLZ DON'T SHOUT AT ME. 8( 8(


I still like you though

I will never call it a fucking cone ever

But why not?

Just a cone on its own?
When home alone just have a cone?
Just gonna clone that cone and smoke more rhyming word

So much more fun to use the word cone.

Bowls can sound like Balls with a very bad accent.


I am very glad that I have never seen a bowl being used here. Just the way I have always seen Aussies smoke, all I can imagine is someone now trying to rip a 1g cone through thujone's bowl and greening out in the process. I don't get why so much fucking bud would be roasted just for it to sit and linger.... aftertaste... just NO


MrSpeedy I know what you mean, what I hate having found growing up, what everyone seems to think here is that the general conception is if you can't rip a cone through without leaving any ash in the conepiece/smoke in the bong then the social convention is to pack the next one smaller because you couldn't rip that one through in 1 shot. I dislike social conventions.


If anyone here is from SA I'd love to hear that this shit doesn't happen & this is just through decades of just a fucked conception of how to smoke that was passed on stoner-to-stoner.

 

[smokemctoke420]

I generally smoke my weed however the fuck I want

mostly because its mine though

fucking word.

i have this thing called a "Bullet", its like a giant metal chillum. has a rubber piece as the hitter, a giant metal pece with a metal screw on top. its like a royal blue color. shit was $10 and it hits awesome. I can easily fit a gram in there. glass sherlock bowls kick ass.

And GTFO with your tobacco in your weed. That shit is for after, i like to think of it as desert after a session. i just smoked out of that bullet i was talking about and i just im enjoying a cig now.

 

[shimazu]

I know exactly what youre talking about SMT

I do get into debates over the "best" ways to get stoned sometimes, but at the end of the day its more about the weed than route of consumption imo

Ganja is a religion and a way of life, all you fools paying big bucks for various utensils and product are suckers, ya'll are doing it wrong.

God bless the capitalist society
Hail profit
Hail expansion and growth

 

[oldirtybizza]

How stale can a bit of smoke get really, A bucket or parachute and even spots tend to spend a bit of time before being inhaled and this is a pretty accepted method, I don't see why it should matter just because it's happening to linger a bit in the bong chamber.

Thank the stars my bucket days are long past , that shit used to be ruthless.

IMO there's only one wrong way to smoke weed and that is to not inhale.

 

[angeleyes]

So this thread has really opened my eyes haha, does no one else just not notice the taste of the smoke is different if it's all smoked in one hit rather than 2+?

 

[Folley]

I do this with really large bongs, the first hit is just to fill the bong with smoke while the second clears it. You're not supposed to get any smoke with the first hit, it just allows you to get a MUCH fatter hit since you don't take all that extra lung space to suck through all the oxygen in the bong.


It doesn't really make a difference, smoke takes like smoke anyways and it only takes like maybe a 5 extra seconds. I do notice that you can get headaches if you take too many fat hits in this manner though, presumably from a lack of oxygen.


I tend not to do it with other people though, because you can get such a fatter hit compared to the "normal" way that it's just not fair to them.

 

[Roger&Me]

You couldn't deal with what the average Afghani goes through in a day, the most strenuous thing most Americans do is heave their obese frames to the bano and empty their burger filled bowels.

i was (quite obviously) being facetious (i like to give laugh shit about being anti-american) but i run 25-30 miles per week, plus boxing-type workouts, and i eat only light home cooked meals; and most of my friends/family are the same way. i think you've been buying into the media portrayal of americans more than the reality, m8

Don't you mean sit behind a screen controlling a drone and killing innocent people, or is it shooting someone who may or may not be a Taliban from a mile away.

and i joined the marines m8, not some pussy ass drone control air force bullshit. we spent most of boot camp getting our asses kicked in preparation for close quarters urban combat. a lot of hand-to-hand fighting (mcmap program), fixed bayonet work, etc. ground warfare with actual boots on the ground is what america does best.

the crazy ass usmc recruits i was in boot camp with and the marines who were our drill instructors were the craziest, fiercest, most highly conditioned, most gung-ho bunch of fuckers i've ever had the pleasure to know. i would put them up against anyone from anywhere, any day, and bet on them to prevail.

GET SOME

 

[laugh]

roger was actually a cadet in the navy. post the pic of you in the uniform standing on the submarine, roger.

Thank the stars my bucket days are long past , that shit used to be ruthless.

i respect my lungs too much for buckets, but damn they were fun as kids.

Couldn't agree more.

... they're expecting 20/80 Weed/Tobacco ratio (This is what I normally come across) and the look on their face is priceless when they toke 100% weed. I get decent stuff too so they normally walk away pretty happy...

I can't believe that my friends Across the Pond smoke a joint with 20 percent weed and 80 percent tobacco - wow!

that seems a bit ridiculous to me. way too much tobacco! I have heard of tobacco/weed hybrids called "Euro Style," and I actually like to roll a joint with a couple sprinkles of tobacco in there, as I am fond of it. but if your joint is almost 100 percent tobacco, then aren't you just smoking a cig?

I've noticed that people all smoke bongs (or "cones" I guess) all differently. I personally prefer joints/spliffs/blunts to bongs, but to each their own

also, you have to take in account that American weed is on average far more superior than Australian weed

 

[MrSpeedyG]

The only time we would put tobacco in a joint is so that it burns properly and it would be 20% tobacco 80% weed, otherwise it gives me mad headspins/greening out because I don't smoke tobacco anymore.

I only smoke through a pipe or vaporiser now as it allows me to gauge exactly how much/how high I am getting.

 

[Black Rabbit of Inle]

I can't believe that my friends Across the Pond smoke a joint with 20 percent weed and 80 percent tobacco - wow!

I've never seen it that bad over here. At worst it's 70/30 weed/baccy and commonly it's 0-10//100-90 depending on how stingy the guy who chops is (everyone throws in a bud or two and one person chops). I don't smoke tobacco unless it's in a mix so much more than that and it just makes me sick.

I rarely smoke with others these days and if I do it's always with 100% green J's.

 

[Morphling]

Occasionally rolling spliffs, I do break out the baccy pouch. Tolerance is so low I just get too mangled, and besides it just feels wrong to smoke %100 weed, it's how I grew up doing...

 

[MrSpeedyG]

and besides it just feels wrong to smoke %100 weed

More like feels wrong to smoke anything other than 100% weed8(

 

[laugh]

smoking bongs with a mix of yarndi and tobacco is like hippy crack rock, its boring smoking straight herb imo, if I'm going to just do straight herb id prefer to eat it.

i don't really smoke much anymore though because i always mix with tobacco and end up smoking all day everyday and i don't got time for that no more.

 

[angeleyes]

smoking all day everyday

hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahhahahahahha yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

I seem to be so much more relaxed when I smoke by myself compared to in groups as I've been getting older, idk whether my tolerance for fuckwits has just drastically declined but I like being able to do whatever I want (pay attention to things, not pay attention to things, daydream etc.) just a whole lot more calmer as well.

Less noise too, omg the noise..

 

[One Thousand Words]

I don't know whether they smoke weird but they sure do roll spliffs like a down syndrome kid

also, you have to take in account that American weed is on average far more superior than Australian weed

I'm going to make you cry like a girl one of these days for that comment.

^Pretty much this...

Aren't we just talking about "clearing the bong" here? You can try and time it so that you're fill the bong, pull the slide and clear it all in one hit, but with a wide 2-footer you'll never be able to fill it and clear it all in the same breath....When I was a young kid and people were actually using plastic bongs with metal bowls and the weed was mostly regged, 4 foot bongs were actually popular, and it would take to full draws just to fill it and another 2 to clear it...If you tried that with some of today's high-end shit you'd probably end up puking from coughing so much....Plus, everyone just dabs wax these days so there's no point in killing yourself with the smoke anymore either...Haven't seen a 4 foot "Grafx" bong since at least the late '90s...I wonder if that company even exists anymore...

 

[justsayknow]

^Yeah I've seen people do it the way OP describes in Aus when using really large long chambered bongs. No sharing though. In fact the guys that I knew that would do that had a separate bong for each guy in the house. Visitors would be allowed to use them but it would almost always be a one man one cone policy. Also not everybody here mixes in Tobacco, although you meet a lot of people that do most of my friends don't. Personal preference I guess
