Ganja Etiquette

the_syco

OK, I've read the charter, and I couldn't find anything against it, and I don't think its being posted before.

Lots of people argue about this, so I thought I'd post it up.

1. The person who rolls the joint (no matter whose weed it is) gets to spark up the joint and get first hit.
2. If someone rolls a nice joint, it’s good to give the person a complement on his rolling skills.
3. If someone starts bogarting the bowl and starts using the excuse that it’s okay for him to Bogart it since it's his weed; this is definitely not cool. The punishment depends on the quality of the weed and how much he put in. (if it was real crappy and he was real cheap with it, then you bug on the person and rag on him)
4. If someone is too palsy to light the bowl (due to being too stoned or the person is just a retard) then they must relinquish control of the lighter to someone more able to get it lit. This does NOT mean the person who lights gets free hits... this privilege tends to get abused ("hey lemme light it for you.")
5. If someone is so much of a palsy that they blow INTO the pipe/joint and blow all the **** on the floor, this person must be ragged on and the person can't smoke on the next round (unless it was his stuff)
6. If you smoke with someone in your house, you should let him or her eat some munchies you may have lying around... don't be cheap with your food, if you have any.
7. If someone who's smoked asks for a sip of your soda, you must give him some, (cotton mouth is not fun).
8. Converse of #7: if you ask for a sip, don't take a large gulp.
9. If smoking from a joint, never put the whole thing in your mouth and get it all sopping wet. It is disgusting and it messes up the joint.
10. If you’re smoking from a bong and there is not enough in the bowl for a whole other hit, you should save the smoke in the chamber for the next person. (Don't let go of the rushhold or 'carb' and take it all yourself)
11. Never bogart
12. Never bitch about someone else's weed being no good. If you don't like it don't smoke it!
13. If a friend gets you high sometime in the future you need to get that friend high
14. Thou shall not turn down a smoke. Ever!
15. Phrased in the form of a narrative: My buddy and I are sitting around smoking the weed that I just scored. After flaming-up, and taking a few moderate puffs, I pass it on. The sounds that follow can only be described as vacuum-like. After a couple of huge, lung-busting tokes, the guy passes back the remnants of something that could have, at some point, been a joint. If it's not completely "canoed", then it's absolutely soaked. I not so subtly drop that old Cheech & Chong line "Hey man, can I wring it out for you?" He just looks at me.
16. I have noticed the following: After smoking-up, the odd "crass-monkey" some people will actually eat the stained, disgusting roach. This must be because they want that "extra bit" of oil, resin, or whatever is left on the paper. This situation can be compared to the patron of a good restaurant picking up his "as good as empty" plate and licking off the remaining morsels of food. Sure he got that little pool of gravy, but was it really worth it?
17. If you buy weed from a friend or a friend of a friend, it is polite to roll a joint, (a small one, if you wish) and smoke with the person who sells you the stuff.
18. It is very impolite to hand someone an empty bowl, without notifying that person of its possible cashed-ness. A proper warning would be 'Here ya go. I think it might be cashed.
19. The person who fills the bowl is given the opportunity to take the first hit. It doesn't matter whose weed it is.
20. Always remember to thank a person who has gotten you high. I know it sounds silly, but I know people who never say thanks and it gets a little annoying.
21. The person who brought the bud picks the music.
22. When using a bong, DON'T blow out the ashes, unless that's what the "homeowner" does.
23. NEVER go to someone's house EXPECTING him or her to catch you a buzz. Of course, there are exceptions to this rule...
24. If you spill the bong, clean it up! (And don't forget to put water back in!)
25. When the roach gets too small, if someone has a problem with it, it is common courtesy here to put the roach in a bowl and finish it that way. That way the people who don't mind burning their fingers don't get it all.
26. Thou shall not roll pinners.

Ever notice that people continue the party at the house where the stoners goto?

Ever notice that the person holding the party is a stoner/trying to get stoned?

Ever notice that stoners are the life of the party, as opposed to those who never try anything in life?

Ever notice that most stoners already have girlfriends (or are the girlfriends), and thus don't need to score?

heh, a song from the streets jumps to mind.
Also, theres no definite etiquette for what to do and what not to. it varies depending on the locations, whoevers stash it is, and how far along you already are.

I can't really afford not to. Rolled a joint with the dealer a couple of weeks ago.. passed it to him and he didn't apreiciate the dude smokes pure weed splifs.. nice if you can afford it.

Not a subject I thought I was naieve on but what the hell is a pinner?

a really thin joint I think (a 'toothpick' I'd call it)

Aye, but block format is available, whereas grass is hard to get, and even then can b useless if there's not enough seeds in it!

and never pass the spliff on if it's gone out or isnt lit.... that's the HEIGHT of rudeness imo...

Being a regular roller and passer onner, I have a problem with the last rule there. What if your mate is bogarting, is it then not okay to say 'pass the damn spliff bogart!' ?

Catsmokinpot

me and the lads wrote out a similar "constitution of spliff politics" we called it. around 4 summers ago, looking back on it it was funny. and it still is, whats even funnier is the fact that we didnt stick to it cause their was just so many joints going around. not any more thank god calmed down to a gentle once a weekend, but in all honesty though its a waste of time... its only smoke their shouldn't be rules involved, only rule i would have is dont ask for a joint its ignorant, there's pleanty to go around wait your turn you'll get there in the end

No you just ask him/her have they ever seen "Casablanca" or The Big sleep" or "The Maltese falcon"... They'll soon cop on.

Wertz

I've only ever heard the term bogarting in the US or in movies from there...please don't tell me it's the new hip stoner's lingo here now as well...

Only rule I know is that you pass it to your left or clockwise, whichever applies.

That's not true at all. It's just bad weed you're getting tbh.

The really good sticky green stuff will not generally have seeds in it.

thats such a stupid list


glad i stopped smoking.

Ye, a bud with a lot of seeds is generally regarded as crap where i come from , but then a think different plants have different characterstics. Just dont smoke those seeds :eek: , i m8 of mine was really desperate once, so he crushed a huge section of seeds, did nothing :rolleyes: .

Sorry, that's rubbish. Cultivators will purposely keep male plants away from female planst to stop the females getting pollinated and producing seeds...a plant producing seeds puts all it's resources into that, instead of going to "bud" and producing the resin we all so covet (well most of us).
Any weed you get including seeds is nowhere near as high in THC or other active ingredients as weed without them....avoid.

Soapbar is shlte, but have you ever actually smoked proper bubble hash. You really have to know a grower to get real proper hash. 1/2 a pinhead of real hash will have you destroyed nicely.

smoke the seeds if you never want to have any kids lads, the seeds make you infertile!

It would be truer to say the opposite, but still wrong. Female plants are the ones you want to grow, and will produce seed if pollinated, if not pollinated they will produce more resin and THC in the later flowering stages and get very potent.
Seeds mean it was grown wild or by an inexperienced grower who allowed his plants to pollinate. The last 2 times I was in holland I never got a single seed in the crystal rich grass I got. 10 years bag I got seeds in about 50% of the grass there.

No, plant them in the flower pots outside your local garda station or on your local TD's lawn.

Because they are sitting there quietly, rather than dancing around screaming in a staggering blackout with their flute hanging out wearing a lampshade as a hat?

At the end of the day, stoners are more passive, easier going, nicer to talk to and more of a laugh than locked idiots. Period.
You will never find a stoner and his mates who trek down to the garage at 1am on a saturday night looking for a scrap, but if they happen to come across a bunch of locked idiots, trouble could quite easily ensue. Simple as.

About all the rules things, they are definately american rules, has the yank stamp all over it.
The rules we abide by are, no askin for a joint (unless nescessary, which is never) + the person who rolled it, smokes it.

Unfortunately, we get the worst of the worst pot in europe, literally. Not many places get the crap soap bar we are accustomed to here.
I blame it all on gilligan the greedy fecker. Back in the 80s when there was very little pot around, and that which was around, was black leb or moroccan. Gilligan obviously got in contact with some turks who were banging out crap soap for next to nothing and seized the opportunity. We all then took it for granted that this *was* hash/weed/cannabis and there wasnt much else better, cept the weed in amsterdam and thus since then, we've been shafted because time after time, the people bringing in the tons dont care, because they make the dollar anyway, cos it gets sold one way or another. If the people buying keys in the hundreds were to say they wanted something better and would pay slightly extra for it, then the people selling the tons would have to listen. Of course, this would take a concerted effort on behalf of some of the bigger dealers around the city/country, which is very difficult as only the person selling the ton knows all his own contacts, the contacts obviously never come face to face idividually (well, its rare).
At the end of the day, I cant see the soapbar situation changing, except by the two following methods :

The nigerian communities are bringing lots of good weed with them, god knows how its getting here, but it is. If they were to infiltrate the market, we could all be smoking quality ganja within a year, but they'd have to bring a lot of firepower to back themselves up as the irish dealers would not stand for it and turf wars would happen.
This will happen eventually when the next generation of nigerian/african dealers grow up. There will be turf wars over the sale of crack and weed in certain areas, white on black, but not in any way race oriented, just money I would imagine.

Second way, and Im extremelly glad this is starting to be the case, people are starting to grow their own. We can all be smoking top class primo ****in weed, if we grow it. I know its succesful and completely viable (Im not going to say how I know, but I do), even to the person who only wants to grow 1 plant and gain 1 oz every 2 months or so. It is the way forward for the non commercial smoker (and the commercial growers alike). I urge anyone reading this thread to check the forums in the following sites:

www.overgrow.com
www.marijuana.com

Theres plenty more out there, but they're a good start.
You wont regret at least looking into the subject, believe me.




Say no to soapbar!
Its the worst muck on the planet and we're nearly the only ones who put up with it. Its filled with all sorts of filler, shoe polish, wax, anything and everything you do not want to smoke, its in there. Its put severe pressure on my lungs over the years and I hate the fact that, as a cannabis smoker, its the only option I had, until recently.
I urge you all to change over aswell. Stop smoking the ****, put the soap dealers out of business and maybe then we can get some good stuff from them. Even some nice dark bubbly hash from leb or morocco would be the business.

AB03

Yeah, and that thing about the weed with seeds being stronger,

YOU ARE GETTING RIPPED BUDDY!!!
AHHAHHHAHA!!

Biggest load of crap I ever heard. Its the complete opposite.

Sifo

stoners are generally more laid back, drunken louts are the ones who usually sh*te on all night about the women they pulled and the fights theyve had, i like getting a good drunk on me too (female of course aye aye!! - see thats a stoner comment, mid-sentence just come out with a rant, i'm not even stoned atm) anyhoo, all those rules are grand if thats what ya wanna go by, but not everyone will agree, i guess it comes down to the group you get high with... we generally just pass them around to the left, but if theyve already got one pass it to the right, either ways fine, no need to get uptight about it!!!

though shall not covet thy neighbours spliff!!

StickyMcGinty

if you have nice lump a soap bar handy, and dont wanna smoke camel sh1t, you can clean it up. check it out on the www.wellcoolstuff.com forums, the guide to cleansing soapbar. you get a nice smoke out of it, but a bit less than when you started. lovely smoke though!

Tha Gopher

I think we are going a bit overboard on this whole hash=peace and love for all thing, as if its some magical thing that makes all users passive.

Lets face it, 98% of scumbags smoke the stuff. Ecstasy may make you all cool and non confrontational, but most scumbags use it regularly too (although coke is more popular by now, but thats not really relevant since we know how that affects some people)

Not to down on anything, I smoke regularly and do yokes occasionally, but its just not as if all stoners are peace lovin


On a similiar note, I always laugh whenever I see one of the thrice daily "dirty scumbags" threads, nd some lad who on a thread like this advocates hash goes into a rant against the tracksuit wearing community of Dublin
If he despises criminals so much, quit smoking hash, as your most probably lining the pockets of grown up schwars who import it by the truckload.
Clowns


Me, as for the whole lining the pockets of criminal gangs reason many legalise it heads espouse, tbh with the price of housing nowadays good luck to whoevers making money in it.

Usually stuff with seeds is not home grown, more likely highly compressed mexican or african ditchweed.
Any homegrower who allows there plant to seed is an idiot who are wasting their time and risking the law for nothing. If you are going to grow at least do it right, and buy decent seeds too, I know scumbags who admitted putting hemp seed from pet shops in their ditch weed to make it weigh more, do not presume the seed in a bag of weed will produce the same high. You can buy feminized seeds which cut out a lot of hassle, well worth the extra cost. Don't skip on growing.

You can extract oil (then class A) from soapbar using butane

Lads, will ya stop arguing and pass that J over this way?

MadPatrick

I'm actually pretty good on those rules, but if you have a girlfriend on your right you have to break the left hand passing rule.
Soapbar is utter ****, I tried weed once and paid too much for it and it wasn't any better than hash, but then I went to Oz and the weed over there was super, then Thailand which was even better. Really sticky = really good.
I'm in Scotland now and the weed is good here but alot of people, especially Spanish have real proper hash, you don't even have to burn it, it just crumbles. Thats the business, but I prefer weed.
Most kind of pot doesn't burn by itself so you have to put in tobacco, and you get stoned anyway. It is cleaner without though.
And if someone doesn't pass, ask them if they were eating chicken. Got that off some Spanish people, thought it was quiet clever.
