keeping parents away!

hi guys! alright, lately when i've been toking in my room, i keep thinking i'm hearing noises (probably because of all the paranoia threads! haha). so i was wondering, do any of you have a way of making sure you know if your parents or coming, or making sure they don't come to check? i just sneak around and pretend i'm a ninja, but i'm really weird and it makes me nervous...so...thanks!

 

I can hear them walking, but if it's my mother i'm fucked. she hates it when i smoke in the house so i've promised her i wouldn't anymore. she can smell anything, i'm not exagerating at all. my room is downstairs so i can hear anybody starting to wlak anywhere. depending on how loud it is and how fast their walking i can usually judge who it is.
light slow pace - sister probabl going to the kitchen
heavier normal pace - step-dad probably going to the washroom
medium quick pissed off pace - MOTHER KNOWS

 

Be glad your folks care enough to come around. Mine are both dead. Even though I am an adult, I wish they could come around....Im sure your folks want you around them,, thats prolly why you hear them... Love speaks loudly

 

i'm really sorry about that man

 

For christ sake man make a spoof.(toilet paper roll stuffed with dryer sheets)

 

ah the grass is always greener on the other side but

yeah worrying about parents commin into the room is annoying! cuz every noise you hear it's like 'omg!' but now i jus think 'ah cmon, yer just bein paranoid'. but can u lock yer door? or u shud like smoke on yer bed and if they DO come, just hide it under the blankets and say u were sleeping!! or you could just smoke when you know they are sleeping, eating dinner, taking a shower, on the phone, etc. like when you know they're 'occupied'! hehe.

 

haha i actually do use a spoof, and wait till my parents are asleep, aaand lock my door! they've come up before though, when i was in the shower after i smoked, so i thought they knew! but they just said they thought i might have fallen and hit my head or something, it was really weird...so i guess im just majorly paranoid...anyway thanks for the advice!!

 

Yea a lock on your door will solve the problem. im happy i dont have this problem anymore I recently turned my shed into a room, so i dont live inside my house, that means i can smoke anytime i want without worrying....and i use a long 2x4 for my lock

That happened to me before while in the shower, i fell and slammed my head against the toilet...lmao.

 

This isn't exactly about keeping your parents away from you, but more about keeping them away from your stash:

Enter The Decoy Stash.

What this does, is that in the event that your parents figure out that you smoke (leaving a pipe/bud/roach on the table, failing a drug test, getting caught, exc.) you can effectivly hide your real stash (mine has almost an ounce in it at times) from your parents should they ask you to show them where you keep your weed (so they can destroy/get rid of it).

What you need:
1) A crappy pipe (you can even make one, try tinfoil)
2) A lighter (any will do, try to find a cheap one).
3) A baggie with a little weed in it (Like 2 bowls worth. try and get some really shitty weed for this, a gram of shwag is like 5 bucks)
4) A good hiding spot (duh).


Perfectly formulated to make your parents belive this is all you have, when they ask to see it. for about 5 dollers, you can save an almost limitless amount of ganja!

I posted this in another tips thread, but I think this fits the topic. Oh yeah, and if you have some roachs lying around, put them in a few baggies. Those things reek like HELL.

 

The thread how to smoke in your room and not get caught should be stickied!!! I will bring it back again.

 

That's beautiful bro, and it's good someone put that spin on it (parents aren't your enemies)

sorry about your parents though...

 

just move out...

no seriously, though, even though parents can be a drag, take a second to stop being annoyed and appreciate that they care. Soon, you will miss it!!

I know I do. I live thousands of miles from both my parents and it kinda sucks. I wish they were around to get on my ass a lil bit!

 

I got caught smoking in my room because I decided not to give a fuck, so my parents said "you can smoke as long as its outside" that was a huge breakthrough since we just moved to a house with a fucking balcony, how fucking awesome is that. So now I just sit on my balcony with my guitar and smoke myself silly.

 

ooh, I wish I had a balcony.

 

we can share.

 

I useda spoof, and my mother still smells it. So i don't smoke in the house anymore. I go i the backyard with a CD playr and my dog who seems quite interested in the green subtance in the bags i bring outside

 

haha thanks! don't think i'll ever be able to use it though, i never have like more than 3 grams.

 

Man, I know exactly how you feel. I have the entire upstairs to myself. My parents very rarely ever come upstairs. But every once in awhile my grandparents will show up. You can't even hear them coming up the stairs, so just all of a sudden, *NOCK NOCK* "TYYYLLLEEERR!!!". What I have been doing lately is using a spoof, and knowing where to hide my stuff quickly. If you have a good plan you will never get caught in your own room (if you have a lock on it). I always keep mine locked, smoking or not, so it lets down the suspicion of keeping my door locked. If I hear anyone coming up the stairs I quickly get my stuff out of sight, and currently I use a spoof. But it doesn't have dryer sheets, only toilet paper inside of a toilet paper roll, it still works good. I also use something to cover up the bowl. NEVER let the bowl burn, it makes mostly all the smell that people smell when they walk into a room. Right after taking a hit, ALWAYS put something over it so it can't get any oxygen to burn, and it doesn't burn anymore. Then breathe into the spoof. It works for me.

 

I can always tell when someone is coming because my parents and I live in a duplex house, but only my brother and I live upstairs, so I know the sound of the door opening and closing, and depending on the sound of their walking I know if it's my brother or my dad (my mom doesnt come up cuz she doesn't like stairs). Usually if it's a slow heavy/fat walk, it's my brother, if it's a fairly quick walk, my dad....

 

um, put a fan in the window backwards, this is much much better than a 'spoof' (we call them snuffies, after snufalupagus, cause you can't see it).
I live in the ass end of the house, so if i hear any footsteps in my hallway i know they're coming for me.

A better decoy technique is to get two mint boxes, altoids tins work nice. Use one of the tins for something harmless, like storing guitar picks or money or something, and leave that around the house. Inevitably they'll look in and from now on know that altoids box= guitar picks. Use the other tin to store your stash.
