I hate joints because they burn unpredictably. When I roll a blunt, I can know its going to burn efficiently by the way I rolled it. With any joint i've ever smoked, it seems to burn too fast or uneven, or just hit and taste like absolute crap. But either way, sometimes the advantage of being able to destroy the evidence is necessary. Not to mention that having paraphanalia with you, or in your vehicle is considered a very serious crime over just posession alone.
