Marijuana

My main reason for supporting drugs being legal extends far beyond the realm of drugs. In general, I think it's as important for people to understand why they shouldn't abuse things as it is for them to not be abused. If the government protects people by fencing off everything that might possibly harm them, then we start placing faith in the government to tell us what is Bad?, rather than learning for ourselves. This opens the door to authoritarian regimes whereby the government "protects" us from things they don't want us to know about.

Never thought I'd say this but: I agree with Parsifal

You are all wrong about it not being an addiction. I know loads of people that can't go even a few hours without a spliff.

Don't spliffs have tobacco in them?

Weed is always smoked with tobacco unless you are a hardcore rasta or using a bong.

No. Weed is never smoked with tobacco unless you are a dirty bum.

Not true.  Smoking weed straight is more an American thing.  Europe, Australia, etc go the other way. 

Meh. Bowls and bongs are rather popular here. In my experience tobacco is far too harsh to add to most smoking devices.

My real point was that smoking marijuana straight does not make you a hardcore rasta, and is in fact the norm in a lot of places.

Your skinny straight marijuana joints don't really count. Can you even get high from that?

Obviously people do get high from that, or they wouldn't be doing it. You must have really shitty weed.

Who is here is using the 'bucket system' to smoke their weed?

mmm if you have good weed you can get high off very little

If you can't get high off a joint, you're doing something wrong.

Not if its shitty weed

How shitty? Unless it's from a male... or just crumbled up stems and leaves... you should be getting something out of an entire joint.

This. Even shitty ass bud I bought on a bad day got me high.

let me rephrase. Because of my tolerance if I were to go and find the worst weed around here that still has THC content and smoked a skinny Joint like a .5 or .6 I would not get high. Maybe feel a slight tingle but not high

You must have a higher tolerance than I.

This. Although i havent smoked in a long time... so...

if I smoke regs as we call it around here(the kind of weed that looks like cat nip) you know the hard not very tasty, bad smelling weed that has little to no crystals. I may feel high if I smoke enough but it always leads to a headache

I live in a gifted area I have come to find out. The shit that everyone says is "awesome" and dealers try to drop for 35 dollars in most places costs 20 here. It's always budded, and almost never squished like brick weed. Even the cheap shit is strong enough to feel before you exhale your first hit.

Not to mislead you but my area is very similar in the sense that you can always find super fire nugs that like you said would cost 35 elsewhere and goes for 20 here. But you can also find that real shit brick nug that I used to be able to get for 35 an oz. The price shows how shitty im talking about

Wow. You can't really get that sort of stuff here. The farther north you go the harder it is to get really shitty ditch weed. It's just not worth bringing up shitty weed when you can get decent weed a whole lot closer.

Yeah, definitely. I need at least a dime of regs just to get a good buzz goin'. I would need like a 15 of Kush if I wanted to get really high.

yeah dont get me wrong we have super fire but people can find that real cheap shit if they are really poor and desperate

Once again, the bucket system??? Does anyone else use this? I highly recommend it!

bucket system?

No idea what that is either.

Anyone here ever used a gravity bong? By far the coolest thing I've ever used to smoke.

ehh GBs are alright they get kinda boring after a bit. I enjoy smoking my buddies 3ft PHX so much more

bucket system?

Basically it is a 2l Coke bottle with a cone peice sat in the lid and the very bottom part cut off.  It is submerged in a bucket of water to the top near the lid, conepeice filled, and then pulled up through the water while lighting up.
They are similar to gravity bongs but the water stays in a bucket.You can also very the size of bucket for differing hits. I've seen people do the 'space man' whereby you float a large Spring Water bottle (20L) in a pool and then swim up inside it when it is full of haze!

Sigh, that ruins the point of a "water pipe"

If the smoke isn't filtered by water you might as well buy a steam roller and say fuck it to the water.

I've seen filters attached but most people don't care about it.  I personally don't see the need.

It's not about attaching a filter, the point of a water piece is that it pulls the smoke through the water giving you an easy hit. You can take hits out of a bong that would have you puking on the floor normally.

I got bored with all the fancy shit a long time ago.  When I was still smoking, I preferred to use a small pipe.

Buckets are not fancy and are a simple system, but agreed, it can be quite harsh.
Pipes however give you a mouth of hot smoke (that normally would be 'cooled' by bong water) and also I find make you stink.  That said, they have a bonus in being able to be easily tranpsortable and concealable.

I dont think a dirty bucket n a half cut soda bottle with possible resin build up is very concealable
