smokers-please read

[chickenscratching]

hello everybody.....i was curiously pondering what other smokers consider "good" etiquette when it comes to weed.
here are the rules that i have been accustomed to follow:
person who packs the bowl, passes it to the person on the left (NEVER TAKE THE FIRST HIT OFF A BOWL YOU PACK!)
kind bud all the way (unless you obviously cannot afford it)-we don't smoke shit, do we? (this also relates to the last hit, even if there is one, and you know it's gonna taste shady, lay off (unless financial obligations cause you to need it, but you never want to WANT it)
when it comes to joints: puff puff pass
always pass to the left, do not let the circle be broken
when it comes to pipes, no stingy smokers! pack it up tight bitches!
and finally, you know you're high when you start coughing.

ok, now YOU!

:smoke:

1. NEVER toss lit firecrackers behind your stoned friends back...

o.k. sometimes, but not too often. And only when he's least expecting it. And then, don't laugh at him. Well, o.k that's impossible. laugh all you want. Then take the joint from him and don't give it back till HE laughs (it wont be long).

2. No, no, no.

You Never throw the firecrackers behind the person Holding the Joint!

Wait until he's done passing it. :)

We wouldn't want anything to happen to the precious weed, after all.

3. and you're how old? n/t

[chickenscratching]

5. out of curiousity

why do you ask?

[skygazer]

6. Because an elaborate list of rules and rituals

for smoking dope seems like something I vaguely remember from when I was about 13.

[chickenscratching]

7. well

i deduce you think my etiquette rules are immature?
i understand. I don't look at it as a list of rules/rituals, and by all means it is not elaborate, but there are certain motions I employ to enrich my smoking pleasure. Smoking for me is a spirtual thing so I like to carry some tradition with it.
I am 20 years of age.

21. Hey, an immature bastard like me wonders about "tradition"

I'm only 59, so light the damn thing, already!

[chickenscratching]

24. don't wonder

it's kinda like, shaking someone's hand when you meet them. I respect the weed, it respects me.

4. ... etiquette ... ?

[chickenscratching]

:rofl:

[Freebird12004]

15. ah fooie

if I have to pass it .... I'm sure as heck gonna need to enlarge my regular order

[chenGOD]

10. Rules....stop trying to lay your trip on me man....

:D

I dunno. He who rolls it sparks it (reward for effort). Don't bogart.

That's about it.

11. I'm a musician.

We pass to the right, man.
:smoke:

[chickenscratching]

13. do all

muscians pass to the right?
because i'm fucking up the mantra if that's the case.

[bobthedrummer]

14. This one does.

I think you're probably stoned in real time though, after this post I'm gonna smoke a bowl all by meself!

[chickenscratching]

12. i forgot one!

whoever it cashes on, that's who takes the first hit next time.

[Freebird12004]

16. I thought everyone already knew that !

:woohoo: :applause: :woohoo: :applause: :woohoo:

[chickenscratching]

19. you'd be surprised

at the number of rude smokers i've come across.

[Freebird12004]

22. After 40 years - not very much surprises me.

I guess I'm agreeing with you in a way :shrug: However my thoughts on their behavior was - they were too stoned to see the error of their ways.

[chickenscratching]

25. god i wish

I hope that was the case.
unfortunately, many have proven otherwise.

[Speck Tater]

17. The weed passes to the left but...

...the champagne bottle passes to the right. Hit, swig, hit, swig, rinse and repeat.

[jswordy]

18. "sprinkling" the joint is only allowed with informed consent of the others

[chickenscratching]

26. definitely

a very important one jswordy and thank you for mentioning it. We don't need any fluff laden mary jane unless we all know about.

[Taverner]

20. BONG ETIQUITE: The smoker is entitled (and obligated to) finish the bowl

and suck it down.

[chickenscratching]

23. wait

which smoker? you mean that the bowl should be taken in one hit in accordance to bongs?
