Bong etiquette with friends

Do you load up a big bowl on a bong and pass it among friends? See my close friends and I think this is really uncool. A bong hit should be just that. One single hit for one single person. I hate when I go to a friendâ??s house and they load up a monster bowl on a bong and pass it around like a pipe.

As far as I am concerned a bong should be loaded for one single hit. If that person wants to pull just half of it, exhale, and then do the second half, thatâ??s fine too. But before it goes to the next person it should be reloaded fresh and only for them.

What do you think?

why would it matter its the same amount of weed being used, and less of a hassel.

i dont think it matters at all....you're gonna get high in the end anyways

I feel this. Bongs consume so much weed, they're really not "pass around" smoking tools in my opinion. More of a "special occasion" device.

*shrug* i was under the impression that it was proper bong ettiquette to pack a new bowl, even if it's a small one, for each person. but what do i care, i use a pipe.

I think it they are suplying the smoke I say thank you very much. If I am suplyling the smoke I make sure each person gets a new bowl. It works out perfect every time. :D

yeah me and my friend usually pass pipes and then we do a couple solo bong bowls for ourselves to get us fucked

I think it depends on how big the bong bowl is...mine is pretty large and totally enough to pack for a circle.

it depends on if its my pot...me and my buddies all have different smoking style...i prefer to have my own bowl, joint, bong hit, etc

i dont smoke bongs very often but we usually pass it around so yeah

Yeah I just find it nasty to pull a partly smoked bowl. It tastes like shit at that point. Its usually left half pulled with smoke in the tube which leads to a very unpleasant pull for the next person, etc.

The coolest thing I saw years ago was a friend of mine had a bong attachment that had 7 little bowls in a strip. You loaded all of them up. One person would pull one and the pass it, you would just click the little metal strip over one notch and have a fresh, unsmoked bowl ready for you. That is the only way to load up and pass a bong in my opinion. Obviously others agree with this or why would this 7 clickable bowl attachment have ever been made? ;)

for lazy people that dont want to load bowls every 5 minutes... SOUNDS GREAT

wwell when we all smoke a bong somone will pack it and get the first hit off it the pass it around when it kicks that person packs it and so on that way everyone gets a 'first' hit

I use corner the bowl technique so everyone in the circle gets a green hit.

i like 6 shooters...

yeah, i only whip out my beast when its just like me and a couple buddies max. Even then we all usually throw down on a big bowl and just pass it. We all usually get 2 hits at least, and thats plenty to get me lit upp.

i really don't give a shit. i smoke so much weed that when i pack a bowl, it's gonna be a bowl thats going up in flames and in somebody's fucking lungs. my pot is their pot, and they are my homies. y'knowwhati'msayin'?

I've never thought it was impolite or anything to pass the bong over, but in general I'll pack a cone and smoke it myself - maybe in a couple of hits, cause my lung power ain't that great. Sometimes I'll pass it over to Stewart though. It works fine for him, cause he's usually too lazy to pack his own cone.

Thats your 100th post, woo-hoo!

It realli wouldent matter to me. But i can see what u mean, mang. If you take monster hits like that bravo dude but i couldent clear the bong in one hit, and if i did i'de probibly be choking to the point of gaging.

i dont do bongs but if I did it would be a fresh bong for everyone....
i dont know why....i guess its kinda like building a joint for everyone instead of passing one really....hmmm

Scarlett, what is "the corner bowl" technique??

You're the only one I've seen mention that on here. That's the way I smoke too, even when I'm alone. You can usually get a couple green hits out of a bowl. Much nicer smoke than just igniting the whole pile every time.

Personally I don't happen to agree with you, Base. My weed tastes good and I have plenty of it. If the bong is running low or someone didn't get a good hit, we load another one. It's that simple :) Packing a bowl for each individual person is a little too ritualistic, even for me.

cornering is smoking from the sides of the bowl in, so you torch about a quarter of the green with your hit. This leaves some green for the next person. I read about it on www.smokingwithstyle.com and been praised enough for the technique in groups that it stuck. lol
I also corner when I smoke alone so every hit but the last two are green.
