Stoner friends are the best. If you have no bud, they might have some and come and blaze with you. You laugh together, cry together, and cough up smoke together. Finding new smoking buddies makes me very excited but you have to be careful trying to find new friends who smoke because afterall, it is illegal and all.

Have you ever been suspicious of a co-worker or friend being a stoner but you weren’t sure? Here are 42.0 ways for you to find out if you potentially have a new smoking buddy or not. These are not all true for every smoker so they won’t always apply but many of them apply to many smokers.

Hopefully no cops are reading this.  If you are a cop, leave my page immediately, but click on some ads before you go.

1. They always have a lighter, but you never see them smoke

7. If they are funny and usually calm.
8. Sometimes you see them and their eyes are red as hell and others they aren’t.
9. They are always “tired.”
10. Check the bottom of their lighter. If it has black marks on the bottom of their lighter, you know they been using it to push down bowls / snub out joints.
11. Their lighter has no safety
    
12. If they smoke cigarettes, they hold it between their index and thumb, instead of between their middle find and index.
