pot etiquette

[sir smokes alot]

Do you use pot etiquette?

[Checkminus]

Almost all the time unless it's like me and one or two close friends then we just toke for the sake of toking. I've noticed younger/newer* smokers don't use correct etiquette as much.


*Newer like over the course of all time.

[Oli]

Of course, them the rules.

[420purplehaze420]

i pretty much always try to use etiqutte cause i would want others to do the same, just simple things like not jackin my last bic, dont bogart the joint/blunt/pipe/bong and DONT blow smoke directly into someones face. but yeah all the younger stoners i deal 2, when i smoke with them there always droppin stuff slobberin all over the peice sneekin a few extra hoots when no ones lookin

[IrieAllie]

We always had "etiquette" when it came to smoking, buying, whatever. Never tried to screw anyone over, always shared the goodies, and MOST importantly, never, EVER steal anyone's piece. That's just plain RUDE~!

[slipknotpsycho]

heh, was this inspired by what i said earlier? lol

[YEM]

fuck yeah dude

karma is a hell of a trip

[ezjim]

it's not a microphone it's a bong

[rollinKansas]

Nothing pisses me off more than someone caughing back into a piece. Some newbies dont' know what their in for when they hit a water bong and end up blowing water into the bowl. Stolen bicks are a huge problem in my area. newbies should have to take some sort of class or sompthing before they start group smoking.

[sir smokes alot]

no it wasn't i was just wondering because alot of times i smoke with someone that don't even know what etiquette is and when i say something they're like oh and it gets really anoying when someone blows smoke in your face maybe thats why i don't like smoking with people im just a kid but still its kinda like table manners

Damn skippy.

[HaZarD]

not always, when me and my buddies are toking together we always double or triple toke but we still pass left mayn. mayn every time we smoke we all get high so we dont care

[NightProwler]

when im with friends, none of us give a shit we just try to give everyone a fair share

[RedRainDrop]

yes i do, but the people i smoke with dont.

[slipknotpsycho]

uhm..where these smoke blowing incidents, perhaps by an attraction of yours (depending if you're gay or not of the opposite sex) ...because aroun dhere blowing smoke in someone's face means you wanna fuck them

[somebody someone]

i read that whole site on weed etiket once... it comes in handy, u can always tell how often someone smokes from there etiket, i completely forgot the spelling so i did that

[sir smokes alot]

dude im positive they weren't an attraction and if so i would have gotten my ass outta there b/c i am not gay (no offense)

[OR Freebird]

HEY !!!!! Don't bogart that joint

[slipknotpsycho]

i didn't nessicarily mean they had to be gay.....i meant if you were gay and they were or if it was a girl and you were a guy or vice versa....

[chillstoner420]

i generally try to use stoner etiquette, but its not like im gonna flip out at somebody if they take an extra hit or something, cuz that just means im gonna take another hit haha. but normally when i smoke with people, its just a small circle. around 2-4 people smokin, and everyone in the pot community knows each other pretty well.

[VoodooChild]

im really big on the stoner rules. always let supplyer get 1st hits. NEVER fuck with the rotation.(thats my biggest pet peve) dont mooch

[mono repin]

I ALWAYS practice the essence of ettiqute. If I'm in a large group, I follow the "rules" exactly. If I'm in a small session with close friends, we might take more hits per turn, but we still keep even, which follows the spirit of weed ettiquete.

On other shit I just try and be as curteous as possible. If I took a lighter I wasn't supposed to when I was high I try to return it. I match bowls/joints/blunts/whatever. I don't fish lip bla bla bla.

[Checkminus]

im really big on the stoner rules. always let supplyer get 1st hits. NEVER fuck with the rotation.(thats my biggest pet peve) dont mooch


Yeah, thats the way it is around here, supplier first, guys whose house we're at second, and if it's another persons piece they get third.

[Mirno Sctlnd]

Moochers! is what pisses me off the most, you finish rolling a joint in a group of four or whatever and as soon as some people see that a joints sparked they come over pestering you, and even worse than that actually is slobbers.

[Oli]

When I'm with my friends we don't have a specific tp. If you smoke here then you know everyone else who smokes which helps with the spreading of the rules. If I ever get someone high for their first time then I always explain how it works.

[Encatuse]

Etiquette in groups that're bigger then just me and a close friend.

[partyguy420]

for me its sort of hard. i usaly go with the suplier of the greens get first hit then the person whos got the pipe,(if sum one rolled the joint they get it first. then the driver or house owner then driver. then the munchies suplier. then the mutcher but i almost always fallow stoner etiquette. just one of my friends has a bad fucking pronlem with stealing ppls pipes and weed and papers and joints and money. i watch everything when im with him. but hey i cant say i never stole a bic when with a small group of friends and i usaly give it back, cuz i already have shit loads of them. just sumtimes its funnie to see sum one tear there car apart looking for there lighter while we are passing a joint around. hahahahaha

[Juggalotus17]

Not by the book, but yes i prefer to follow the rules. None of my friends have any clue about them at all though, and they're all fucking retards about smoking. So I just go along with it, as long as I get high.

But when smoking around other people, I notice they tend to like me more because of the way I am about smoking in groups.

[Checkminus]

I think the thing that bugs me the most is when some dude thinks he's above the rules and you try and remind him of them, and they give you a look like you're the newbie.
Hate that shit.

[koshea]

yeah i follow the rules sometimes, depends who im with, alot of the timeno one does nad u gotta be alert, bein polite isnt possible, one time i smoked this guy out for free and he stole my pipe and pinched .5 of my weed...needles to say i hit him with a baseball bat and never talked to him again, i let him keep the fuckin pip i didnt wnat it after it has been in his dirty ass fuckng mouth

[Dick Justice]

Nobody wants to smoke with a bong-hog or a nug-pincher. Why should you be that guy nobody wants to smoke with? Do unto others, etc. My philosophy anyway.

[DonnieDarko]

We always had "etiquette" when it came to smoking, buying, whatever. Never tried to screw anyone over, always shared the goodies, and MOST importantly, never, EVER steal anyone's piece. That's just plain RUDE~!


Allie,

Us old-school stoners had lots of rules, but we never wrote them down. Some off the top of my head ....

1) Never smoke alone. Find someone who has smoked you out recently, or invite a new friend. Smoking is a team sport.

2) When you buy a bag, you offer up at least 1 bowl to the supplier. The supplier gets rewarded, and he sticks around just in case he tries to dump shit on you.

3) Whenever there is a new strain available, your supplier smokes out all of his good customers.

4) If more than one person has product, bowls a alternatley packed.

5) Of course, everyone gets the same number of hits, unless someone in the rotation passes. There is some kind of friendly verbal abuse in this case.

6) Keep your lips and the joint dry.

[Deborah]

I hate to be in a group and someone starts talking and then they just forget to pass it. They let it go out then you have to light it back up and it wastes it. I perfer at my old age to smoke alone and have my pipe. I dont like doobies anymore. They make me hack alot...lol I perfer a water bong but I dont like having it around cause its just easier to get ride of the weed but the supplies you cant just toss away in a emergency. I think smart. lol

[Satovan]

Smoking with Satovan: Official Rule Book

1.) Whoever packs the bowl is first in rotation, it is passed in the order people are sitting, or they can argue about it until everyone gets the fuck in order.

2.) You blow that shit out of the pipe, and you're not walking home on both legs.

3.) One hit off a pipe, three off a joint or blunt, you fuck up, you're out of rotation.

4.) Everyone brings their own lighter so no one's gets stolen.

5.) Touch anyone else's stash without their permission and it's up to the owners judgement to decide what to do.

6.) Everyone should share and help out. If someone can bring food and beverages that's awesome. If someone can match bowls that's awesome. But mooches get cut out of rotation pretty fast.

7.) Anyone pisses on my toilet seat they owe me either a bowl or a pack of cigs.

[slipknotpsycho]

so i can piss on your toilet seat and not clean it up just by paying you a bowl/pack of cigs?

[nonsequitur]

i always pass greens to the guest and let it go around the circle with the supplier being last. Then when the bowl ends, the next bowl picks up where the last left off. Etiquette is important; however, I don't believe many people appriciate it anymore.

[sir smokes alot]

so i can piss on your toilet seat and not clean it up just by paying you a bowl/pack of cigs?

lol sounds like pot etiquette to me

[Dick Justice]

Since everyone's making lists I might as well list me and my buddies (which we nearly wrote down just cause we've selected these on a case by case basis over a long time)

1. Everyone who wants to smoke may smoke. There is no such thing as exclusionary smoking, no matter what the foul may be (even coughing into the bong will not dump you from the rotation)

2. You smoke enough bowls that each person gets greens at one point down the line.

3. When more than one person has weed, the bowl is packed/joint is rolled with samples of each, for equality bordering on communism

4. If you wetlip, you are expected to wipe it off on your own shirt

5. If someone didn't get a good hit, a re-light is in order, no questions asked. This continues until a good hit is achieved (this is useful actually because sometimes there will be a clog and someone who likes to smoke peaceful instead of fiending on it may be denied their full smoke)

6. None of this "I gotta save a bowl for later" bullshit, if there is one bowl's worth left, it is getting smoked here and now.


Those are our six golden rules, and they have never failed us. We really are too equal about some shit though, like when Jason was rolling a joint and we decided that because he was rolling one we each had to roll one. So instead of a gram, we smoked close to four grams that day. But still, I wouldn't call that a "waste" so much as a "wasteful way of having a great day"

[mono repin]

1. Everyone puts up weed in a circle. If you don't have weed to share you better have money or someone to cover your ass.

2. Supplier gets first hit, or decides who gets first hit.

3. Direction is decided at the beginning and continues in the same direction during the whole session, unless 2 devices are traveling at once, in which case there maybe be different directions.

4. One hit on a piece, 2 on a joint/blunt.

[slipknotpsycho]

1. supplier(s) takes first hits or decide who does

2. anyone who wants to smoke may smoke, i expect nothing in return for sharing, although it is highly appreciated

3. above rule is null and void should you piss me off by never contributing nothing and just hanging around long enough to get high and leave (yes unfortunately it has happened with a couple diffrent people)

4. rotation stays the same you switch it's automaticly corrected and you forfiet your next round

5. DO NOT BLOW IN PEICES, OR THE JOINT/BLUNT i'm not so harsh on getting it wet, wipe it off move on.

6. any drink ihave is yours unless you just got done puking, then you better hope you find your own thing to drink out of (yes i've had someone just get done vomit t hen BEG not just ask to have a drink of my soda.

that's about it, don't pass out on my bed, don't puke on my floor, common household rules left that are pretty well known anyways.

[Dick Justice]

Haha, most of these lists are only six rules long. Sweet

[dark0ne]

always repay thoughs who have smoked you up in the past.
pass to the right, unless other wise noted.
dealer packs first, then you pack after.
1bong rip,2 hits on a joint/blunt.
if you slobber on my pipe, i'll dope slap you!
weed is a happy drug, if evryone smoked it WE WOULD ALL GE ALONG :)

[nomadherbman]

3.) One hit off a pipe, three off a joint or blunt, you fuck up, you're out of rotation.

what!?! man its PUFF PUFF PASS.

theres etiquette and then theres petty little rules...why fuss about who gets second, third, fourth, or what ever hit. it almost always causes aurgements and irritation.. YOUR WEED, YOUR HIT....THEN PASS THE DOUBIE TO THE LEFT HAND SIDE... some people i know do the poke poke thing, which ever person directly to your right or left pokes you first gets second hit and it follows rotation.....

and i word from me, a former dealer.......its not always neccessary to smoke us up, but PLEASE!! stay and chat for a while....i hated those priks that were short on the phone and then grab and go in person....nothing pissed me off more! i just droped what i was doing and drove 10+ mins for you!! show some respect, and common curtisty! Dealing, atleast at the higher end, is a full time job, and hard work, constant running around, dealing with people, keeping track of all your shit....it gets to after a while, not to mention the paranioa that comes with it.....imagin be on call 24/7

There was this one group of girls tho that insisted on smoking me up everytime....they even packed their bowls or joints with their own weed and passed it to the person next to them to spark...and i tell you, they got heavy and cheap bags everytime...Treat your suppliers good and they'll treat you the same

[VoodooChild]

i rembered a rule that i had forgotten.
puke outside of my house or you better make it to the toilet.
for some reason ppl tend to puke at my house
and ppl should clean up after they make munchies

[Deborah]

Im old now, no more circles of friends...lol Just me and my stuff and TV now. lol Oh and a beer now and then...lol

[Jake0steve]

On the stealing of lighters, the people in my town seem worse than others. I go somewhere with a green and a red bic, and I will leave with a black bic and two purple bics or something.

We get very confused with the lighters, and people just pass the lighters around even though everyone has one, and I myself try to hand people lighters and they dont pay attention so i set it on my lap and use it later and then end up with it.

Wow, strangely enough I decided to look in the pocket and found that I didn't have my blue bic and my flame bic, I now have a black bic with what looks like a sticker of godzilla's eye on it..lol

The packer of the bowl or roller of the joint gets first hit around here, and they usually offer it to the person whose weed it is, and the person will tell them they get the privalege.

Anyway, ya people always have severe rules for blowing into the bowl or bong, mine is you are out of the rotation for the next bowl unless you make me a sandwich.

[Oli]

Roller sparks up and takes first tokes. Then it goes to whoever brought the weed, who decides the toke pass. Joint then travels left around the circle.

[BoboGanja]

The first time I toked ever was with some friends, and I made a "rule" by instinct, and one that stuck. We were boxing my walk-in closet, and one of my buds was wanting to pee, but our last bowl wasn't done. He get up to open the door, and I called out "Hey, don't break the box man!". Its been a rule of our ever since... don't break the box unless its an emergency.

Our "rules" (we aren't strict on most of them...):

1. (one of our strict rules) Don't make people laugh while they are hitting! That shit is uncool to the extreme! Spilled bongs, blown-out pipes, messed up joints, and a lot of caughing are the only results. You got something funny to say, wait a minute for the person to hit first.

2. (another more strict rule) Don't break the box unless you have some kind of emergency. If you're gonna puke, can't breathe well, or pee yourself, thats one thing, but no breaking the box for little things.

3. If you got some green, pack something, even just a small bowl or something. If you got nothing, thats one thing, but holding out is generally not cool. Of course, there are exceptions, but try to pack up something.

4. Pass to the left. Some people pass to the right, but we've always passed to the left. Once everyone's good and stoned, though, this rule is relaxed a lot.

5. ASK BEFORE TOUCHING/PACKING/MESSING WITH SOMEONE ELSE'S GREEN! This is our only nom-negotiable rule, and for very good reasons. People get easily pissed over this shit, and its not cool.

6. Finally, don't bring random people into the circle that no one but yourself knows without permission. It gets rather... quiet when this happens, at least where I com from.

[1e64102e]

My cousin's stupid bitch girlfriend is a mexican weed-hound - she holds onto that fucking joint forever. I'd really enjoy smashing her face. Amazing; the bitch doesn't even work, so she ought to have very humble smoking habits instead of being a sow! Always practice regard for fellow smokers - and they'll do likewise!

[llamaman666]

I am an outlaw. And you are allowed to take bics man. If they don't ask for it and you have it your allowed to take it.........And we hardly clear the pipe cuz the next hit will be in a second so who gives a flying fuck. And theres plenty of blowing in faces

It sounds like reefer anarchy, and I like it.

[Cannabecea III]

Nothing pisses me off more than someone caughing back into a piece. Some newbies dont' know what their in for when they hit a water bong and end up blowing water into the bowl. Stolen bicks are a huge problem in my area. newbies should have to take some sort of class or sompthing before they start group smoking.



I am totally with you Kansas, ideed they should be more "classy" when they smoke.

[stothelutz]

I use it 95% of the times once in a while while my bitch friends are coughin I'll sneak a lil extra hit. I hate when the gayfers try to steal my lighter or I end up getting one of theres (cause they stole mine) just to find out when I pack a nice salad bowl there no lighter fluid =/.

[georgiapeach420]

With the main group I smoke with we have different etiquette or "rules" when we smoke. Because we all started smoking at diff times we are all at diff levels so when I am way gone one person might not be so they take an extra hit or two to get to the same level I am at. Plus we always make up some weird rules everytime we are high and it is fun to see who remembers the rules the next time we smoke.

[knuckles fearon]

we always do rollers rights if we're smokin a joint but otherwise everyone gets a fair toke, unless someone keeps comin 2 get stoned an never has smoke themselves. i always steal peoples lighters, it's not intentional like it' force of habit-yeh light your cigarette an then put it in ur pocket.

[AcidFreak]

And you wonder why you always smoke alone...
:D

[Iggy0828]

My biggest pet peeve is when people bum pinch hits off of me and then put the hitter back in the dugout upside down.

[DonnieDarko]

We always had "etiquette" when it came to smoking, buying, whatever. Never tried to screw anyone over, always shared the goodies, and MOST importantly, never, EVER steal anyone's piece. That's just plain RUDE~!

I miss IrieAllie ....

[KomfortablyKnumb]

I can't believe no one has mentioned cornering the bowl. That is one of the more important ones for me, nothing pisses me off more than someone burning the whole top of a bowl of some good shit. Other than that, if you roll it you spark it, though the rotation doesn't really matter from there, left or right as long doesn't matter just don't mess it up. That's about it, lipping the bowl and mooching aren't really a problem for me, except for a couple people, and they are dealt with accordingly. No one I smoke with is stupid enough to cough back into the piece, we'd all be pretty appalled to see that happen.

Oh wait one thing does piss me off more than not cornering a bowl. If you call me to find you weed b/c you can't find any, I find the weed, cover the money for you and buy it, and drive to meet you, you GODDAMN WELL better be packing one up. Fail this one, and don't expect me to hook you up again.

[79lostinspace79]

every time I smoke up in a group.

[CabanaBoy]

I never thought of pot etiquette, because I never knew any other way. My friends and I have always practiced it. I've been fortunate not to be around many buffoons.

[jeng1128]

I quit for like 6 years but I still use pot etiquite. Always have my own lighter(kinda have to bc i smoke cigs) but some things are just common sense.

[catbuds]

I only smoke with 2 people now a days. There are 2 brothers who

[catbuds]

I screwed up that last post! As I was saying, there are 2 brothers who are neighbors. They never knock, just walk in your house. They only come if they think you have weed (or something to steal). If you have friends over, they'll steal wallets & purses, then break into your friends cars looking for more to steal. They will return (if you can can get them to leave at all) & steal your plants after you go to bed. Then one night...one of them KICKED. MY. DOG!!!!
---- Now I only have one rule.... if I didn't invite you, Dont Come To My House! PERIOD!!!!

That's the only 'etiquette' I adhere to anymore.

[Schrodingers Cat]

As much as any stoner can I guess.
