my best friend and i have been smoking together since we both started (both of our first times were with each other), which was well over 2 years ago. since then we've been smoking on a relatively daily basis, and more often than not together. i have been noticing that when we start a bowl, she fries the whole bowl the first hit, not taking the courteous way of "cutting corners." this doesn't seem like a big deal, and for a while it wasn't at all, but now it's just getting on my nerves. especially when i always save green, and all of my other stoner friends do as well. in a way i feel like she should know better, since she's been doing it for so long. but at the same time, she may have never been told, or at least not figured out that everyone else cuts corners. but apparently not... should i say something to her about it? i don't want to start a fight with her because she is my best friend, but at the same time i don't want to get pissed off when i pack a bowl and she hits it first and i don't get any of the green. what do you guys think?
If it bothers you so much, then tell her something about it. Don't be a bitch, just be polite about it, and there won't be reason to fight.
I'd say something. Just be polite about it and be like "yo try sparking it like this it saves green and that way we both get a better hit and save weed", and proceed to show her. That's how I do when people blaze the whole thing.
just ask her politely to save some greens, thats really not worth getting into a fight about. I always tell my friends to save me some greens.
Torching the bowl is a very n00b mistake but not everyone learns this. People are too afraid to insult others. Be polite and tell her that by lighting one side of the bowl she leaves greens for at least two other people. After a couple years of daily smoking she should be able to control how she torches the bowl. I break the bowl up into quarters and can get five hits before I move on to a fresh section.
just tell her to save you a green hit! me and my friends know better than to torch a bowl, we always save each other green hits. this is a good thread though, because i do have some problems with the way some of my friends smoke, too. and i am always afraid to say anything, because i have been smoking way longer than they have, and i don't want to feel like a know-it-all about weed when i tell them to do things the right way
Omg my freind smokes kinda like this.. She never saves any green for anyone else and she always takes like 2-3 kits of a fucking bong.. like wtf.. one hit pass bitch.. She always gets someone else to pack then grabs the bong and basically finishes the bowl with like 3 hits before anyone even gets a turn even in like a 5 person ratation... So fucking annoying
That's how me and my friends are about it too, but if it really bothers you just ask her to save you some green!
This is what we do with my circle of friends as well. However, even though I usually supply I often offer the green to the guest of the house first. In your case just mention it to this person in an off hand way. Don't act mad or pissed just say. Hey, I was thinking it would be great if we could all get a green hit. How about we corner the bowl. You know your friend best.
this might not work but will get the point across and cant hurt... torch the bowl when you get the first hit. and then be like o oops sorry i didnt leave you a green hit, do you wanna take 2? make it seem like you were being inconsiderate by forgetting to leave a green for her...and if she doesnt get the point then youre at the same point you are now with no loss.
sounds like baby back bitching to me. Yes, green hit is a special thing because the majority of trichs are consumed BUT that doesn't mean cry about it. Rule of thumb is whoever packs it lights it. If you pass on taking your deserved green hit then you can't complain. My booboo always tries to get it exactly halved and everytime i say what's the point? We never just blaze one, so i'll take green on the next one. the one exception to the rule IMO is when you put some kief on it. then it should be cut.
yeah same, whoever's bud it is starts it off and then whoever it cashes on gets the next green. but anyways i don't think it's a big deal but just say something about it i don't see why you needed a thread to see if you should say something...like if something bothers you and you guys are good friends of course you should say something.
Ditto, only time the thought of saving a green hit after the 1st hit is if there's kief on top of it.
