I don't remember my first time getting high, but I DO remember my first bong rip.
Before this I had been smoking more and more, but only out of spoons and such, occasionally a bubbler but I didn't own one. Then I went to a friend's house, one who had acquired a huge, three foot bong. Legit, this thing was almost too long to light without a butane. My friend is one of the most skilled smokers I know, and he spends about five mins packing an excellent bowl of maybe some low mids. He took the first hit, then passed to me and showed me how to hit it. I took my hit and almost immediately had a coughing fit. That shit was insane. My lungs were burning capillaries calling out for oxygen but instead absorbing massive amounts of THC. I was fucked for many hours, which was surprising because the weed wasn't that great. He told me later that I had taken about half the bowl down. :thumbsup:
