Do you have a "better" nostril?

Snorting is not my prefered method, but when I do it I almost always use my left. Habit more than anything.
 
I always swap after each line, my left nostril nowadays is more damaged though so i probably used it the most in the past.
 
Interesting question. I'll play along: my preferred nostril is my right one. This is because the left one has a piercing through it and this gets in the way of whatever I'm using to snort with (typically a straw). I always start on the right, then switch back and forth.
 
i use to have a "better" nostril, now my septum is completely destroyed so its all the same. it actually sucks, my nose constantly bleeds. every morning i wake up i can taste blood in my mouth.

moral of the story, shoot drugs, dont snort them.

HAHAHAHA, that last line is amazing.

I have a deviated septum in my right nostril, so I [used to] generally tend to blow shit up my left. Yet, when that was clogged, I could still manage to take a decently sized pile of powder up the right. My nose, like SmokeTrails, eventually began to bleed whenever I snorted anyting.

Moral of the story: parachute drugs, do not snort them.
 
I was just thinking about this the other day because that exact same thing happens to me! It sucks because i like to split whatever i'm snorting to two lines, one for each side because i figure it will absorb better, and the left always goes straight into my throat it seems. Maybe there's some explanation for this? I'll look into it but i'm interested if somebody knows off hand.

It's because when you change nostril, the angle that you hold w/e you're snorting with changes slightly. When I snort things up my right nostril it works much better because I'm use to it, but I notice the slight angle change when I switch over to my left.

Work on keeping the angle similar and it should stop happening
 
If what I'm snorting is painful I'll go with my right nostril because I've burnt a resistance to nearly everything that can be painful(usually 2c's) but if I'm in for an extended snorting session with say MDPV/meph I'll go with both
