The first joint I ever rolled was fantastic, just perfect. And then...they all sucked after that. Until I started using a dollar bill as a tool to aid me, and now they're all good, but I still suck if I don't use a bill or piece of paper to help me spread the pressure out and get even tightness along the length of the joint. I only roll joints for the woman for her to smoke by herself, or if I'm going to a hippie festival or something. Myself and my friends generally smoke out of pipes, but one of my friends rolls amazingly perfect joints so when we need joints, he's the man. But any of us can produce a smokeable joint if we have to.
