I roll joints for almost 100% of my smoking right now...

I've been put off bowls since I used to use my metal pipe and it was mega harsh.. but.. bearing in mind i'd still have to conceal the nighttime smoking from my parents.. is it worth investing in a small bong?

thanks :smokin:

if you want something different and still have to hide it try out a bubbler. they are small and still use water.

Bongs kick ass because even if you can't handle the hit you charge, you can still just shoot it up to your brain, choke your brains out and get fuckin' baked...

bongs are well worth the investment:thumbsup:

get one with an ice catcher to help cool the hits

Haha! I was high when I read this and for a second I was like "HOW DID HE KNOW MY NAME?!?!" Then I remembered about the picture.

bongs make too much noise for stealth smoking.

you're better off with a nice glass spoon or something.

but to each his own.

have fun. :thumbsup:

Bongs are good, but as previously stated they make a bit of noise. Stick with a nice pipe for now.

if your worried about the noise just turn a fan on high,, thats what i do to drown out the sound, and if you put the fan next to a window it will help reduce the smell

deff get a small bong,, they cool the hits soo much, pipes and shit hitt too hard, plus if you put fruit juice in the bong it will change the taste of the smoke,, plus bongs are much healther for you,, the water filter out a lot of tar and shit in the smoke

if you live with your parents then you should probably hold off on a bong until you move out. they can be harder to conceal than a small glass pipe, and if you're trying to conceal your smoking, bongs make a lot of noise - i was trying to smoke in my bedroom while my best friend was staying at my apartment with me for the weekend, and i try not to smoke around her, but i just had to haha. she heard my bong through the wall...my walls are probably just pretty thin...but still - she heard it.

but yeah, smoking out of a bong is totally better than hitting a pipe. you can get bigger hits and get baked. i had a couple of nice glass ones, but i broke them recently. so i bought another bong a couple of weeks ago, but i bought an acrylic one because i didn't want to break another glass one. ever since i bought it, i have only smoked out of my pipes (i have four glass ones) maybe 3 times. and i pretty much smoke all day every day. i love my bong :bonghit:

The RooR was my daily smoker, I used something else to get wasted. If anyone's interested I'll post a pic.

Think of the bong as a right of passage. It's a step in a new direction, a dedication if you will. And you won't be sorry.

bongs are petty tight. I consider myself a bong-smoker

Look around and find one you really like. Bells and whistles like ice catchers may cost more, but they are most certainly worth it. OR if you are more DIY oriented, you could make your own.

If thats the case, I would suggest a Goldschlager bottle. There's at least one post on this subject.

Either way, don't be afraid to spend a little money on this. You'll be grateful in the long run when friends seek out your new toy.

Shamrock, I suggest you get one with a good weight to it that will fit your life. Like I'd love to have a 3 footer again, but w younguns in the house it just aint practical for me right now since I have to keep mine hidden when not in use, so mines a medium size.
I prefer a glass bong thats heavy enough to not tip over everytime my cat flicks her tail at it. And I like to be able to see through the glass to see how big of a hit I'm brewin. And I like the shaft to be tall enough that I don't get a mouth full of spray every time I hit it. Get the slide out bowl, instead of a carb. And you might want to make sure its easy to clean.

good luck and show us what you get
:)

i really enjoy the cool hit i get off mine; i started with a small bong and recently got a little pipe; i'm glad to have both, but the pipe is just very harsh to smoke compared to the bong where i can gulp that smoke up :) i'm now thinking i'd like to have a bong with a more elaborate filtering process, like the molino mad scientist; you gotta love the cool hits you get off da bong :) yes, get one, i payed $30 shipped for a nice little molino bong from grasscity, it's a fine start

i have a cheap ass one footer that i love. didnt really know much about bongs when i got it, but i use it pretty much every time i smoke, good for little snappers. and if you dont have an ice catcher, you could just stick your bong in the freezer for 5 mins, makes it hit like a champ.

The only downside to a bong is its noise and lack of mobility. If you have those covered, you NEED to buy a bong! Put ice in it and go crazy

drowin out the noise of a bong isnt that hard, a fan will work, some soft playing music, the tv, use your imagination:thumbsup:

the upside to bongs far, far outweight the downside(witch i think is only the noice, which there really not loud at all)

i ripp my bong almost everynight and my dad is in the room right next to mine,, all i need is too turn the fan on and no one can hear shit,, trust me

05-27-2007, 10:25 PM
yeah, i actually bought the little pipe because the noise of the bong all the time isn't desirable

i think everybody should really have a pipe, rolling papers, a bong, and eventuall a vape at some point :) get you covered for different situations; pipe for quick hits, papers for lovely spliffs; bong for cool hits; and vape because they're just great and you don't want too much tar in dem lungs :)

of course a bong will filter some of your THC out, but that's the price you pay :) i seem to hold bong smoke for longer cuz it's less harsh so it seems to even out for me, and i much prefer the cool hit to a pipe

Most definitely! Probably one of the best investments, second of course to the vape. I bought them both on the same day. Dont buy out of your means, aka, if you dont have somewhere to store it, dont get it. too much money invested in it to lose it or break it!
just my $.02

Sorry for the wait on the reply, bigsmoke. It was custom made by RooR Germany, and re-distributed to me by weedcity.com because they do not ship directly to the USA.

hydropnoicphx, nice perculator/ash catcher setup on that phx.

I own like four bongs right now, and only two pipes (one's glass, one's metal)... if you couldn't tell... ILOVEBONGS<3 but maybe a bubbler would be good, like someone else had said? if not, a nice glass bowl is what you need. :thumbsup: :D
