Joints. It's a waste of pot to fill a joint with dank. Joints are for schwag, and nobody buys schwag for joints anymore. If you're going to be at some public event, or simply in public, just fire up the bowl and blaze on the sidewalk. Nobody is going to care, and you will be totally fine. There is no reason for jointery [sic]. Ever. Schwag is for brownies and other social confectioneries.

Oh, and blunts are retarded. Stop acting like you're cool. Preaze.

Poe is spot on, this time. Joints are massively wasteful. You lose probably half of your material in the effort. Totally lame and passe'. Still in major use in Europe, where the nicotine-addicted sprinkle a tiny amount of green in with the brown death-leaves. Nauseating to me....

Precisely, Mr. Poe. Considering both the cost and efficacy of today's weed, why anyone would waste significant quantities of it by just letting it burn away uninhaled doesn't make a lot of sense to me.

Besides, that's why one-hitters were invented.

As a dedicated joint-roller (I was very popular in college, thanks to my nimble fingers, and not just when it came to joints), I have to ask--what's preferable? A bong, or a pipe? Please advise.

Also: I'm considering getting an iPhone, and I don't trust anybody other than Sloggers. Pros vs. Cons, please, and thank you in advance.

"Poe is spot on, this time."

Tthsst! Oh no u di'int!

@3

"Besides, that's why one-hitters were invented."

Amen, son.

@4

Bong. Then pipe. If you need to resort to papers, it should only be in a moment where Bible pages is the only available option. That is all. Thank you.

P.S.
iPhones are for suckers. Get a BlackBerry. If you need reason, Anderson Cooper has one. Wink.

oooh . . . joints! How I loved them!

Don't care what you do at home, build a fuckin' bong outta your bathtub and a gallon jug for all care, (seen it!) but in public...YOU'RE ALL WRONG.

Pipes are fuckin' gross. Suckin' in butane and God knows what chemicals the crappy pipe you bought is made of and loading up yer gonna-be-drooling-in-a-minute-giant-hairy-bud and suckin' it all through a metal mesh screen? Why even leave the house?

Shake is civilized. Have a few hits, a few beers, be social. Besides, why carry drug paraphernalia on your person if you don't have too?

Thank you Mr. Poe. You've saved me once again.

@7

Some of us attend a fair amount of social gatherings that have resulted in the leading to of what is commonly known as the conversation stimulator. It works wonders. And it costs more than a little shake in the cigy-digy. Trust me...once you meet Janeane Garofalo, you shall fully understand.

@8

You are welcome, dear child. Now march forth, and smoketh with the lamb.

@ 4 I'm waiting for the iBong. *sigh*

Seems like joints are a generational thing; my oldster friends (50+) all love their doobies.

I'm a fan of the one-hitter that looks like a cigarette. When I'm out socializing, no one bats an eye if I duck into an alley to light up. And inside, I just pretend I'm smoking to look cool.

I've never understood joints for anything other than concerts. Well, that and for smoking when walking down the street, cuz smokin a d00b while walking down Broadway on the way to Indian food is pretty awesome.

Did you happen to see the crap weed they showed in that film? It's like wood chips. God we're spoiled here in Seattle in ought 7.

"Dammit Smithers, why can't the men open their eyes!? Are they blind? Everyone is using marijuana and the evidence is all around. Make a film for me, Smithers. In it you will tell the men: Open your eyes! Use your eyes for god sake and look! Can no one but me see what is happening?"

Hey. Did anyone notice they said hash will lead pot smokers into the world of hard drugs? Today's drug warriors don't make that distinction any more, but back then there was a difference between hard and soft drugs.

@12

You're a fag.

vaporizer > bong > pipe > joint

I've had pretty consistent access to a vaporizer for the last couple months and it's quite possibly my favorite invention ever. Bongs are good and all, but the vaporizer's just so damn easy. Don't mind a pipe for outings and I have to admit that a good joint is nice on occasion, just for a change of pace.

Is that what pot looked like in the sixties? Sure looked like compost to me.

and another potential narcotics victim floats out of the world of reality toward a midnight of eventual regret and despair...

that is too great.

@15: that weed looks like the dried alfalfa i used to feed my rabbit as a kid

I'm not gonna lie: half of everything said in this thread was lost on me.

However, the video was very educational. I've only tried hash once in Ireland, and I didn't understand why the girl scraped so little off into her cigarette. Now I know.

Also, do people really miss seeds? I thought taking out the stems and seeds were like...rolling 101.

"tumbling into the horrors"

Oh glee! Oh mirth! I choked on my morning biscut!

Wasteful or not, I loves my joints. Its the wonderful prelude to lighting up, part of the whole experience, and pipes and bongs just taste like shit.

Weed is cheap and plentiful (up here anyways :P), may as well enjoy it.

@9 Mr. Poe. Again, incorrect! It only FEELS like a "conversation stimulator", but in fact what you having is a not actually a conversation, it's just talking, until you feel like you have to pooh.

My favorite part was the dude's shifty, pinprick pupils at the end. Was it supposed to be the cop or the guy toking the hash pipe?
