[QUOTE=Stormcharger;33679375]haha I remember reading that[/QUOTE] What a waste of time. I'm the only drug they need [img]http://guildwars.incgamers.com/forums/images/smilies/large/smiley_smug.gif[/img]

Wikipedia says you can inject heroin vaginally, and if there's one thing Wikipedia knows its vaginas. I have no way to test for the truth sadly.

[QUOTE=Stormcharger;33661547]Im almost certain you couldn't, when we were working with pure ethanol in chemistry I asked my chemistry teacher what would happen if i had like 10-20mls of pure ethanol and she said I would probably have alcohol poisoning.[/QUOTE] I'm pretty positive that's because most of the ethanol you work with in labs and chemistry is denatured, which means they added methanol to it, to prevent people from circumventing the taxes and such. Taking a 20ml shot of ethanol shouldn't kill you. A standard shot is 40mL. Most liquors are 40% ABV. That means that 40% of the liquor consists of ethanol. Doing some basic math, that means that when you're taking a single shot you're consuming roughly 16mL of ethanol. A double shot ups that to 32mL. So yea, I doubt it's the fact that it's pure ethanol that's killing you. Otherwise Everclear would fuck you over after like the second drink.

Weed related question, as usual. I think when I smoke joints, they burn way too fucking fast. Would using two or three papers make it burn slower? Also, question about blunts. I'm thinking of buying a cheap cigar, taking out the tobacco, and putting bud in there (just like people do with swishers). Would it burn slowly? And what makes cigars burn so slowly in the first place? Is it the wrap?

Are oils any worse/better for you than just smoking weed, and is the high scientifically different (I know the high feels different to me, but that could just be a placebo)? I know I enjoy getting stoned off weed a lot more, hotboxing a room or car, but the oils can get a much cheaper than weed. On the topic of oils [url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9WrAs1r_w8g[/url]

At the core this problem sounds like a rolling issue. The joints should be rolled tight like a cigarette, but not so tight that you can't drag off of it. It takes practice but even a joint-rolling machine can't roll a joint like a pro roller. Yes, it might burn slower if you pack it in all the way. Never done that before. While it's not really worth it to me, maybe it would be for you though. Yes, it's the wrap around the tobacco. It's a tobacco leaf, which burns slower than paper. A Cuban is almost entirely full-tobacco leaf, so it's thick and large, which makes it burn slower. Also they can be packed tighter and still burn. There's a lot of reasons, but these are the big ones (off the top of my head).

Consuming any reasonable quantity of pure ethanol can cause acute ethanol poisoning. @stormcharger you weren't using pure ethanol, it was lab grade. which means it has menthanol in it

[QUOTE=Meader;33694097]What're oils?[/QUOTE] Hash/Weed oils, they use isopropyl alcohol or butane to remove the THC from the plant, then cool it to a sticky paste kinda stuff.

[QUOTE=MGinshe;33696789]Hash/Weed oils, they use isopropyl alcohol or butane to remove the THC from the plant, then cool it to a sticky paste kinda stuff.[/QUOTE] Hash?

[QUOTE=Werem00se;33697082]Hash?[/QUOTE] People where I live refer to it as "oils", it's like a sticky thick liquid

[QUOTE=MGinshe;33696789]Hash/Weed oils, they use isopropyl alcohol or butane to remove the THC from the plant, then cool it to a sticky paste kinda stuff.[/QUOTE] I've never seen anything where hash oil is cheaper than weed... That's why I was confused. Plus, hash oil gets you f'd up.

[QUOTE=Meader;33697467]I've never seen anything where hash oil is cheaper than weed... That's why I was confused. Plus, hash oil gets you f'd up.[/QUOTE] Might just be my dealer, but $20 worth of Oil (not sure on the weight) will last 2-3 sessions. $20 of Weed (also not sure on weight) may not even equal 1 session of oils.

That makes sense. [editline]13th December 2011[/editline] You should really learn weights to assure you're not getting screwed.

are hash oils what you use for edibles like weed brownies, or is that something different? I've always wanted to try weed brownies.

It's hard enough finding someone who actually has stock, let alone telling the giant dude with the baseball bat that his tinny is too small... :v: [editline]13th December 2011[/editline] [QUOTE=Cpn Crunch21;33697790]are hash oils what you use for edibles like weed brownies, or is that something different?

[QUOTE=MGinshe;33697330]People where I live refer to it as "oils", it's like a sticky thick liquid[/QUOTE] like budder? ------ and I'll try licking my fingers and rubbing the joint next time. Seriously, it just feels like I light the joint, it rotates once and then I'm inhaling the roach. I seem to pack it quite well, even though my rolling is quite messy.

(real) Tobacco leaves make blunts burn slower swishers are like printed synthetic crap imo (i get a lot of hate for saying that cause everybody loves swishers or white owl brand)

but all the cool kids smoke swishers i mean ask wiz khalifa

actually all my niggas smoke swishers like old men on park benches playin checkers like bobby fisher

[QUOTE=stupid10er;33706150]actually all my niggas smoke swishers like old men on park benches playin checkers like bobby fisher[/QUOTE] My niggas love them some white owls or swisher y'all [editline]13th December 2011[/editline] It's gangster [editline]13th December 2011[/editline] Or something

does anyone actually smoke swishers? i'd imagine everyone just splits them open and packs them with bud.

Is bowl gauze necessary? I got a new bong, and I'm not too sure if it'll just fall through when I smoke. It doesn't fall through when its just sitting there, but when I light it I'd rather not lose a bowlfull of weed
