Burnin an 'L' ..

So yea can somebody enlighten me..

I burn an 'L' just about every day. Well, at least I think I am "burning an L". I mean we throw around this terminology a lot and to me, that simply means smoking a 'blunt' or a marijuana filled cigar. But why do we call it an 'L'? Is it possibly because of the word ' bLunt ' and "burning a B" just sounds gay lol?

Hope this isn't a stupid question..

Stay high :rasta:

trying to formulate my response...

i was wondering the same thing...

Cause a long straight blunt looks like the lowercase letter l? thats my guess.

Equally good guess, but I think that's about as right as my venture. Someone out there MUST know...

omg a 2 paper joint one paper streight and 1 long sticked together and rolled (about a gram)

But why do we use "L" to refer to a blunt then if it's actually two joints?

It's because of the way you stick the papes together, it looks like the letter L

Ive never heard anyone call a blunt an L..

An L here is a joint rolled with two papers, stuck together to look like the letter L (not when rolled, obviously). It gives great cones.

Maybe you refer to L as a blunt because someone wanted to sound cool since they heard it somewhere. Not you, but whoever started saying that in your area.

its "el" as in "el producto"....not "L" as in bLunt. thats makes zero sense.

...nothin to do with a joint either, nobody calls a joint a "el" only blunts.

I dunno the joint theory makes the most sense to me..

i just told you what it means and where it came from. the joint theory? c'mon.

I dunno I just never heard of it as "el producto". That would make even less sense among the spanish-speaking where you imply it originated

No, alot of people in philly refer to blunts as an L. In my area I have always head this terminology for a blunt. I have never on the other hand heard of an L being two joint papers rolled together. Im not saying either one is wrong, but different areas have different names for things. Like soda and pop.

spanish speakin? their american cigars. are "dutchmasters" from holland?


i see your the type to ask a question but not willin to accept the answer because it dont seem to make sense to you. believe what you want but i can tell where ever your from you say slang just to say it no matter if you use it right or not, go ahead and keep callin joints els

....what does a joint have to do with a blunt?

What's your problem, bro? I was just askin a question that apparently other people aren't sure about either. And yea different areas have different words for things. It just so happens that in my area we call blunts 'L's' and not because we wanna sound cool, but because that's what we always have called them. It's people like you who shouldn't be allowed to smoke. Keep the peace and chill out.

Stay high. :rasta:

chill out man, you sound like you have high blood pressure

the species name for cannabis is Cannabis Sativa L. Maybe thats where the "L" comes from. only thing i can come up with.

Lol you got semi long hair to.:p


But hey you both live on Li you guys should fight it out.:thumbsup:




Ohh and who the hell cares where the term "L" came from you call it an L because thats one of the names you know it as. Why do we call cannabis weed,pot,ganja,marijuana,ext the terms came from somewhere but you don't care much because you know it all as the same thing so you just call it these names right? Well i'm not exactly sure what i'm trying to get at so i'm just gonna end this post.:jointsmile:

i think its you who is the dipshit, cause everyone knows how to leaf a fucking dutch. hell yea i jizz on elementary school walls, ill jizz in your fucking face while im at it, come thru to the south shore some time we got some ill buds.

another pissing contest...

you know i'm about ready to support 18+ ONLY on cannabis cuz of this shit..? i'm tired of normal every day threads, being turned into my dick is bigger threads... the only thing stopping it as a matter of fact, is the fact that there's just about as many adults doing this as 'kids'...

it's too bad those of you who really need to feel it, can't feel the shame... espeically since about half are adults and people far youner then you, are acting more adult-like then you... the very first name is billionfold... he's 15... BUT ACTS MORE MATURE THEN MOST 20 YEAR OLDS!...

meh, w/e... have fun in your 'my dick is bigger' contests'.... just shows your level of maturity tho..

I just have to LOL at the L definition about two rolling papers. I can just imagine some white kids in Iowa being like, hey lets go get a pop after we smoke this L. LOL pop, pop is soooo.. Braidy Bunch lol

lol this thread got funnier since i left.

in uk a L is one paper normal _ then one goin up_| so it ends up like ¬ that and you roll it up
