I quit in Amsterdam in 1997.  That was an odd day.
[close]

I want to hear that story
[close]
 

I was a military brat and I went to 8th-11th grade in Germany.  Smoking was the norm.  I started at a fairly young age- 13, and really enjoyed it.  By the time I was 15 I was smoking every day.  I was very, very high functioning though.  I never once thought of quitting skating, and I pretty much just got lost in writing and drawing.  That's all I wanted to do.  I didn't even ask a girl out until my Junior year and that didn't last when she figured out that nothing would interfere with skating, homies, art and the sweet leaf.  I never got in trouble for it (it's fairly hard to get in trouble in Europe for it if you're not an idiot.)

By the time I was 17, it was way more than daily.  It was an hour trip to school and by the time I got there I had usually had 2-3 bowls.  For no reason at all, it's not like I was getting much out of it at that point.  My days at this point were pretty much filled with Wu-Tang, graffiti and skating.  I was looking at potentially getting kicked out of school for absences despite having a 3.0 GPA.  My homies and I went to this awesome camping spot in Holland where they had this huge waterslide park and this thing called a Rodelbahn, afterward we went to Amsterdam, where we'd been countless times, bought some stuff and just kicked it, checking the usual shit out.  I was sitting in this coffeeshop with a friend, getting ready to smoke and I just stopped and realized I hadn't gone smoke free in a long time.  On the spot, I just said, "That's it, I am done." Quit on the spot, and left.  It had nothing to do with my friends.  I just packed up and took a train home.  I was getting ready to move back to the states and I think quitting was part of me trying to get used to not living in Germany.  It was weird.  I lost a few friends out of it too, which sucked, but in the long run was the right thing.

I moved back to DC where I am from, went to a school I fucking hated, got sponsored by a shop team and bought a bag once.  When I looked at it and saw that a fair amount of the weight was stems and seeds and it was a lot of shake, I just said fuck it and gave it away.  Never looked back since.  It's just something I am not into anymore.  I am totally fine with other folks doing it, and I totally think it should be legal (I actually think ALL drugs should be legalized), it's just not my thing.  Traveling the world and shit, I get offered ALL the time, but people are always cool with it.

Not that cool of a story, but it's just odd that I had that epiphany IN Amsterdam.  Jesus, that was 15 years ago!

Thanks for sharing your story. I found it very interesting!

@ HATE!

It's sad since I realized how close you live to me. I was going to offer you a smoke-out if you rolled by but that would be awkward if you were sober.

it's not a roach, it's a crutch. you tear a piece of cardboard and make a small kind of filter out of it for the end, keeps weed from coming into your mouth or having to keep tweaking the mouth piece to get a good hit.

Weird, I call it a 'kick' but here in the midwest 'crutch' is very common too. I find it impossible to roll a good one with it already in there, its too loose.

The difference in weed-related terminology always intrigues me...what do you call the remains of an already-smoked joint/blunt?

She takes it in the butt a lot now though so I suppose everything worked out.

funny cause where i live we call roaches doobies but then where i go to college they call joints doobies. i can understand different terms, but using the same terms for completely different things is really confusing.

People call joints doobies here in London, but more because it sounds funny. Zoot is the most common used word i guess. Also roach here is the cardboard and the burnt end is just called ends or even paki's ankles if its really small haha

I stop as soon as i taste the cardboard/paper/whatever i use as a kick, which always leaves a little behind. When i was cheaper i used to save these roaches up in a jar, and invite all the homies over for a super full steamroller bowl of roach weed, with 3-5 layers of keef in it to make it taste a little less shitty. Got 50 hits out of one such roach bowl.

well i live in the bay area and it's commonly used there for sure, so i'm surprised you don't hear it used.

i actually don't smoke anymore for the time being, but i'm still something of a connoisseur. i'd say my favorite strains are GDP and jack herer. i was surprised with the latter cause i was under the impression that all purps were indicas up until that point, which was off-putting cause indicas typically put me right to sleep. but GDP was an amazing sativa. jack herer smells/tastes amazing, i wish i could've vaped some. speaking of, what are you guys' experiences with vapes?

Vapes are nice but I like smoke. GDP is indica as fuck. You must have been smoking some cross, because pure gdp will keep you locked down on the couch all day.

same, they're great for good tasting weed but the high isn't as functional, for me anyway. weird, i just looked up GDP and you're right. what a bummer, that was my favorite strain and now i don't even know what it actually was.

Maybe if you're by yourself, but I find all but my closest friends cant be trusted to not get their spit all over the end making it near impossible to smoke halfway through. I tend to share my joints a lot.

Me too. Vapes are like, too clean. Think theres any validity to the notion they remove some cannabinoids due to only being hot enough to burn the THC?

When I'm not rolling, I use my 3-piece bong setup, its awesome. Carb filter, perc and ice catcher. I've read a lot of shittalking about bongs with the carb filter built in, but i love my separate attachment. Way expensive but the rest of the bong never gets dirty and the hits are way, way cleaner. The trick is to not let water get to it; clean it with alcohol. Id love to try the attachments you fill with activated carbon for comparison. Anyone else have experience with filter attachments?

nope, just running a glass on glass with an ash catcher bowl and an ice catcher. I smoke weed and tobacco together through it. Sometimes its not even harsh enough for me. two little bowls of water are all I need as filters.
I have a box vaporizer, but generally only use it when people see that I have it and get excited. Doctors and dispensaries all say vaporizers are safer than smoking, not due to the temperature, but due to the fact that the thc is evaporated into vapor, rather than combusting into smoke. The funniest thing about watching other people smoke the vaporizer and watching them take way too big of a hit because their lungs aren't reacting like they would to smoke, and then seeing them drop like a fly that got hit by bug spray.
Even when you smoke a joint with friends, eventually it dries out, though I would question who you are sharing with that doesn't know how to hit a j without getting their damn slobber all over it. I'm not saying my friends or I are pros, but we usually stop hitting it because it gets too short, not wet.

We drove up to the hills, smoked a joint and then the dude driving went the wrong way and tried to make too hard of a turn and fucked his wheel up on a curb. My friends jumped the fuck out of the car and we all ended up walking back haha. Also, I need to stop doing regular shit when I'm high and I need to learn how to roll a fucking joint.

What do you like about adding the tobacco? I rarely smoke blunts anymore cuz the tobacco leaf makes me feel sick sometimes. Well that, and because I'll never roll a blunt as good as I can roll a zig-zag. Those new blueberry swishers are pretty good though.

Honestly its been so long since i (or anyone else i smoke with) rolled one sans kick that it might not even be an issue, but its one of those things that i like so much ill never go back. One more bonus, it keeps the weed in without any kind of folding if you need to travel with it.

On a similar note, a few weeks ago my friend used a cigarette filter as a kick, but the joint was skinnier than the filter and it was really lose near that end. One of the more hilariously pathetic joints ive seen.
She takes it in the butt a lot now though so I suppose everything worked out.

I dunno. gives you a buzz and a fix I guess. When you do them at first through a bong it seriously fucks you up. Over time, it just became my way.

^ i got blindsided by a brown bowl out of a bong at a party one time. i was pretty drunk, and took a big rip assuming it was just weed, and it made me fall to the floor on all fours (heh) and hang my head for like 30 seconds before i could manage to stand again. i remember my friends letting me know it was a brown bowl at that point and then myself saying completely emotionless "that shit is crazy." unbelievably intense. couldn't do it on a regular basis but i'm down for it every once in a while.

^Me too, even though I stay away from the tobacco and have cut consumption a lot since graduating. I blame it on the change of season so as to not feel compelled to stop smoking.

late late but near vancouver a roach is the end after, and joint or jammer is the full length one. the cardboard 'kick' is called a filter, i've never even heard of those other terms before.
I;m sure i;m not the only dc/monster/subaru type guy here
