Tips for newbies

This thread can be very useful... as frequently there is a new thread with the same old questions... so,
If you had to give the most useful tips for someone who is starting to smoke, what would be?

Buy proper skins, don't just use any old paper.

Practice makes perfect when rolling.

BUY A BONG.

This is pretty basic, but make sure you inhale correctly. It always helps to take a breath right after your hit to make sure the smoke reaches your lungs. And personally I say don't bother holding it in for more than a couple seconds.

Holding it in for long periods of time gives you one hell of a head rush though. I also read a study by a doctor that said most people don't get the full effect off weed because they never hold it in as long as they can. This could be false but he was a doctor.

dont get caught by your parents (assuming your not aloud) it will make you paranoid for a while after...

Oh yeah, there are in fact statistical studies that prove that holding in your hits takes full advantage of your high. Now...were talking about 2-4 seconds here, so it's not like holding it forever or anything. It's just that I see so many new smokers that simply hold the smoke in their mouth for a second and just poof it all out. Stupid fucks. Thing is...I used to be just as much of a stupid fuck as these people. Took me some time getting used to the whole inhaling thing. When I started smoking bud, I had never inhaled any type of smoke into my lungs--only had smoked cigars, but never inhaled.

So yeah. Inhale. 3 or 4 seconds. Big hits. You'll be high.
