Smoking Etiquette Commonly accepted practices Ê Ê Ê Ê Ê Ê Ê Ê Ê Ê Ê Ê Ê Ê 1.Thou shalt not turn down a smoke. ÊNever! ÊThis is the definitive rule to live by! 2.The person who rolls the joint (no matter whose weed it is) gets to spark up the joint and get first hits... 3.If someone rolls a nice joint, its good to give the person a complement on his rolling skills... 4.If someone starts bogarting the bowl and starts using the excuse that its okay for them to bogart it since it's their weed, this is definitely not cool. The punishment depends on the quality of the weed and how much they put in. (If it was real crappy and they was real cheap with it, then you rag on them :-) 5.If someone is too uncoordinated 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. Ê This does not mean the person who lights ßgets free hits... this privilege tends to get abused ("hey lemme light it for you...") 6.When it is your turn to hit the joint, take your hit and then pass it on. I've noticed that some of my friends have a tendancy to tell a story or something whenever it is their turn and hold on to the joint for a long time. We call this "Jenning the Joint" 7.If someone is so stoned that they blow into the bowl and blow all the shit on the floor, this person must be ragged on and the person can't smoke on the next round (unless it was their stuff) 8.If you smoke with someone in your house, you should let them eat some of the food you may have lying around. Ê Munchies happen, so don't be cheap with your food. 9.On the other side of this, always offer to go on a food run, especially if the person whose house it is got you high. 10.If someone does offer you food, don't totally pig-out on it. ÊThey had to pay for it, and most people have betteár uses for their money than buying food for their guests. Ê (Like buying more weed) 11.DO NOT, I repeat DO NOT, while stoned and sucking nitrous oxide out of a balloon in the presence of two bongs abruptly decide to stand on your head, as you may topple over, spilling both bongs and getting bongwater all over the carpet. ÊTrust me on this one ! 12.If someone asks for a sip of your drink, you must give them some.. (drymouth is not fun) 13.Converse of the above: if you ask for a sip, don't take a large gulp 14.If smoking from a bong or a joint, never put the whole thing in your mouth and get it all sopping wet.. its disgusting and it messes up the joint. 15.If your smoking from a bong and there's 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 carb and take it all yourself) 16.Never bogart 17.Never bitch about someone else's weed being no ûgood! If you don't like it don't smoke it! 18.If a friend gets you high sometime in the future you need to get that friend high 19.NEVER, and I repeat NEVER take a shot of bong water, not even on a dare. ÊIt tastes like complete ass and you will more than likely puke from it. 20.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. 21.If a person passes on one round DO NOT assume that they are passing on the next round. I don't know how many times I have passed on one round (actually this doesn't happen often but when it does...) and on the next they just a skipped me because I didn't take any on the la'st. 22.It is very impolite to hand someone an empty bowl, without notifying that person of it's possible cashed-ness. A proper warning would be 'Here ya go...I think it might be cashed.' 23.The person who fills the bowl is given the opportunity to take the first hit. It doesn't matter who's bowl it is. 24.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. 25.Always ask before lighting a cigarrette, just because you a person lets you smoke-out in their house does not mean that you can smoke cigarrettes.ÊI have several friends who smoke-out in their house but don't let people smoke cigarrettes. 26.If you are smoking with two other people and you are the midd'le person, you do not get a hit every time it passses you. ÊJust because you are in the middle does not allow you extra hits. 27.When using a bong, don't slobber all over it. 28.When you are high, try to be careful about the homeowners stuff. Ê ÊBeing "so high" is not an excuse for breaking stuff. Ê 29.Again, when using a bong, don't blow out the ashes, unless that's what the "homeowner" does. 30.Never go to someone's house expecting them to get you high. 31.If you spill the bong, clean it up! (And don't forget to put water back in it!!) 32.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.
