Incense = suspicion

[Hardcore Newbie]

I'm not sure about everyone here, but in this area, anyone that uses incense, the first thing people think of is "covering up weed".

I only mention this because i see a lot of teenager stories about how they cover up the weed smell with incense. I just keep thinking to myself that they're just giving themselves away. Like seriously, what 15 year old would be into incense just because they like a good smelling room or what not? Just a heads up I guess, and an inquiry I suppose :P

[1chronic]

Alot of the girls I toke with have used incense for years, like since before they started smoking so it isn't suspicious for them.

[moorephened]

I happend to grow up in a half gypisy family, insense was no problem! Then again ganja wasen't that big of a problem either.

[EbelEyes]

I burn it because it smells great, and everyone knows that.

[timothylearyisdead]

I believe it depends if you are a donkey or an elephant. my personal beliefs.

[xmk]

dont generalize, that statement just isnt true, im a 22 year old male and a good high quality incense is one of my favorite things on earth, im not talking bullshit mall incense either... im talking high quality japanese, no wood core type incense...anyone else here nuts about incense?

[orangeman]

Nope, inscent burning around here is normal. And even if they would suspect it they don't care because they already know I smoke weed and I told them I'm not changing it for anyone and that they were crazy if they couldn't see that I'm better off with it than without it. Even before I started I was a little..."off". THC didn't do anything but help me and in a way I think they notice a change them selves so I guess it's all good lol.

[notransfer]

my friend has an inscence coffin haha

[delusionsofNORMALity]

i have hair half-way down my back and i'm barefoot 70% of the time, there are beads and bits of tie-dye scattered around the house and a large framed picture of janice hanging on the wall, the doors or pink floyd are usually playing in the background and there is almost always a silly grin plastered on my face.

so i really don't think that the perpetual haze of incense hanging in the air is the biggest clue as to my herbal infatuations.:hippy:

[jaGerbom]

i actualy know what your talking about....i love how incense smell but whenever i burn em my parents come in and say why u burnin incense? u gettin high? theyll say that when im not even smoking lol.

[sam44]

I burn incense, but not to cover up the smell of weed, because I dont even smoke in my room, but anways my parents are suspicious as hell now.

[TheAtomicPunk]

Yea it just so happens that I smoke weed and I'm crazy about how clean my room is, and my room is 20x better when it smells like STRAWBERRIES! Because I love strawberries!

Well I can't burn incense in my room because it leads my parents to beleive I'm smoking. I should tell them I only smoke in the garage so I can burn incense again, eh? haha :)

[Frivolous248]

Haha, when I first got caught, I wasn't allowed to use incense, lol.

It wasn't originally suspicious for me though. My dad used/uses incense. Hes like, into meditation and spirituality and stuff though. I got him an incense burner for his birthday once (I got it back...guess he didn't like it, but its badass 'cause its a dragon on a bottle and it glows under blacklight!) so yeah. I don't burn it no more though, just kinda a waste of money. Although I wouldn't mind, because sometimes my room smells like shit. But its not worth the trouble.

But yeah, good point. If I ever have a kid and they use incense, I'll be like "Yo homeboy wheres the weed at? :D"

If your a teen and trying to b.s. your parents that are in their 30s to early 50's........lol.....we old timers have been there and did that. Just a bit of advice.....

Have a good one!:jointsmile:

[Lovely07]

I love good incense too! I used it before I started smoking....my parents use it all the time. I love anything that makes my apartment smells good. I love candles and burning oils too. Now that I think of it.....maybe I just like things that burn :rastasmoke:

not trying to b.s. my parents at all...i burned incense before i smoked weed and i never smoke in my room....my incense and weed stay seperate

[IntoTheEther]

I feel like I'm repeating half of the people who have posted so far, but it's the same with me; I've liked incense since i was about ten or eleven, way before I started smoking, and I'd been burning incense in my room for at least a year before I started smoking. For me, like jagerbom, weed and incense stay separate... although I can't say I don't love walking into an incense-filled room while baked...

[2600HERTZ]

My mom thinks the same thing, but she is fine with me toking, she actually came in the other day before my time to go to work and toked with me.

Exactly.

And the ones who go in the washrooms for 10 minutes then spraying body spray and cologne like crazy to cover it up. :rolleyes:

Parents aren't stupid. They will wonder why their chil;d is going to the washroom so much only to make themsleves smell pretty, just to go sit back down on the couch or in their room. :p

[Purple Banana]

I love me some nag champa. I burn it in my car, I love that smell so much.

[meloncoly]

I cook stuff to cover up smoke smells. It also coincides with the munchies.

[ATrain]

I think it can raise a few eyebrows. I know my Mom thought it was odd. But sometimes it can help with those heavy smokign sessions. I suppose it depends on the kid.

[666300]

A couple years ago i burned incense occasionally, and i didn't even smoke back then. But my Dad doesn't like the smell so i can't burn it to cover up weed now.:(

[Hardcore Newbie]

Forgot about this thread.

Yeah, my basic point was that, a lot of parents are pretty smart, and for a 15 year old to be into incense (especially a guy) isn't really the norm. If there are socks all over your floor but you care about your room smelling pretty, it's going to be an alarm.

Hahah yeah, and the axe body spray every time you get into the washroom probably doesn't help either :P Then again I wasn't a smoker in my HS days so I'm not sure what the rest of the tricks of the trade are, maybe I could learn something from you guys, just out of curiousity haha.

[Agressor1]

I liked incense when I was younger and I burned it every so often, so it's not suspicious if I just burn it every so often.

[YayAreaPnjbi]

Why parents think I do acid when my strobe lights are on and think I'm smoking pot when the black lights are on.

dude seriously when i get the blacklight in my room my mom was like wtf is that for? so everything looks cool when ur high??? i was like nawwwwww wut u talkn bout but like "FUCK! HOWS SHE KNOW?!" in my head hahaha

[Bob the Awesome]

Argh, I hate that... incense and spraying off all the time in the bathroom are too suspicious anymore. Can't do it without having people think...

Lately, I've been using dryer sheets, if you get the kind with the powder rubs off you can actually wipe your clothes down with it... making you smell like clean laundry. Only bad thing is it leaves some white dust on you, but you can brush that off.

[DJ R]

As long as I don't leave "paraphenalia" lying around, no one ever gets mad or starts talking punishment or whatever. Incense is a common weed-cover, so I use it ALL the time in the hopes that there'll be a "boy who cried wolf" type of mentality when I DO use it for a cover. And I also like the quasi-"green tea" smell.

[make it legal]

I love insscense either way... I also dont like when people say its incriminating to use inscense or febreeze or whatnot, because the truth is it's a hell of a lot less incriminating than the smell of pot!

[paradigmdream]

i've been burning incense for years before i started smoking weed. i just like to have a nice smelling room

[Captain Hanks]

I think alot of chicks use it. Your right, I can think of a guy who burns (insence that is) that doesn't burn.

how bout you just DONT rap

[herostyle]

I don't think thats the case in my area. My parents didn't care that I burned incense and I smoke weed all the time. Until, the entire hallway smelled like shit incense, they didn't care that I did it. Some incense is horrible.:jointsmile:

[Hardcore Newbie]

how bout you just DONT rap
What does me rapping have to do with anything?
