The first time I toked ever was with some friends, and I made a "rule" by instinct, and one that stuck. We were boxing my walk-in closet, and one of my buds was wanting to pee, but our last bowl wasn't done. He get up to open the door, and I called out "Hey, don't break the box man!". Its been a rule of our ever since... don't break the box unless its an emergency.

Our "rules" (we aren't strict on most of them...):

1. (one of our strict rules) Don't make people laugh while they are hitting! That shit is uncool to the extreme! Spilled bongs, blown-out pipes, messed up joints, and a lot of caughing are the only results. You got something funny to say, wait a minute for the person to hit first.

2. (another more strict rule) Don't break the box unless you have some kind of emergency. If you're gonna puke, can't breathe well, or pee yourself, thats one thing, but no breaking the box for little things.

3. If you got some green, pack something, even just a small bowl or something. If you got nothing, thats one thing, but holding out is generally not cool. Of course, there are exceptions, but try to pack up something.

4. Pass to the left. Some people pass to the right, but we've always passed to the left. Once everyone's good and stoned, though, this rule is relaxed a lot.

5. ASK BEFORE TOUCHING/PACKING/MESSING WITH SOMEONE ELSE'S GREEN! This is our only nom-negotiable rule, and for very good reasons. People get easily pissed over this shit, and its not cool.

6. Finally, don't bring random people into the circle that no one but yourself knows without permission. It gets rather... quiet when this happens, at least where I com from.
