Hold Dat Shii!

[Aristotle]

Do you guys use any tips or tricks when you try to keep holding a hit in and not blowing it out?

When it gets down to the wire sometimes I beat my chest. Otherwise I would just rock bock and forth and make humming sounds.

I'm talking really long, big hits here.. not average ones. The type of hits that make a tear come down your cheek and leave you to find the nearest beverage as soon as possible. Like when you have to hold in salvia, play Chicago, or just really want to get super high.

I don't know any statistics, but it sure as hell gets me more fucked up had I not.

And, of course, for the other 10% :jointsmile:

I like big hits sometimes from a good bong rip. I guess I just hold it in without my lungs blowing up. No need to rock back and forth like a mental patient. Although I do get mega light headed when I hold in massive hits. Yeah yeah, oxygen deprevation or whatever, I don't care! :p

Actually, it's been proven that something like 90% of all the THC is absorbed almost instantly, as stated above..

So basically all you need to do is inhale, pause, exhale...otherwise you're just inhaling all the toxins that are NOT good for you. Asphyxiation is what you're looking for if you say holding your breath gets you higher. :jointsmile:

why???? it just fucks up your lungs.....i think something like 90% of the thc is absorbed within 3 seconds or someting like that

97% actually..

97% actually..


I tell my friends this everytime they say "Hold that shit in nukka".:rolleyes:

i used to do that at my parents when i wanted to smoke in my room without them knowing. i would just take deep breaths through my nose until i couldnt do it anymore and then when i couldnt hold it in, i just blew it out the window. i could hold it in until no smoke came out. its not hard i dont think.

but i dont do that anymore. i think i get more high when i blow out clouds

I don't know what voodoo shit you guys are trying to say here about 90 percent this, asphyxation that, but you're really starting to detract from the original principles in which our founding grower's put into effect so long ago!

Hit - Hold - Pass - Blow Out

[slipknotpsycho]

err... you wanna hold it in longer fine by me.. but i don't see the point... for an extra 3% of the hit? at that rate that's like 33 hits before it even equals one hit..

besides, all tha tholding in hits gives me fuckin headaches.... it just feels so much better to take a hit off a joint, hold it in a few seconds, take another hit, hold for a few, take anohter hit... etc... then letting perfectly good material go to waste while you're uselessly holding in that hit...

it actually makes it less effective to hold it... while you're holding, you're burning perfectly good bud..

but w/e floats your boat..

Enjoy your oxygen deprtivation and placebo effects :)

5 seconds is all it takes, max.
