Smokers Etiquette 101
Smoking with your friends is always a fun occasion. It’s a time that you guys get to smoke, chill, relax and zone out. As long as everyone follows the rules, it is a good time for all. When people start breaking the rules they start to become one of the few people that no one wants to smoke with. Make sure you follow the rules at all times.
Shout outs to all of my twitter friends for helping me out with these suggestions. Love those guys. Here are the official Hail Mary Jane rules of etiquette while smoking.
- Rollers Rights - The person who rolls the joint/blunt lights it.
- Whoever brought the bud gets next.
- Always pass to the left.
- puff, puff, pass
- Bogarting is hanging on the joint for too long and is a big no no. This is a serious breach of etiquette.
- If you drop the blunt, you lose your turn.
- If when smoking, someone asks for a sip of your drink, you must give them some, dry mouth is horrible and tortuous.
- If you ask for a sip of someone’s drink, take only that and NOT a gulp.
- Always carry a roach clip.
- (Optional but nice) bring a bowl to put in on it
- If you’re choking, you need to pass it. You should either be puffing or passing when you have the blunt.
- Never be stingy with weed, you never know who will be there to save u when ur smokeless.
- Never ask to smoke someone elses weed, they’re most likely going to share if they know you smoke, stoners are nice
- If you are going to a cipha do not come empty handed. Sponsor something, even if its only roll ups.
- If you’re breaking it up, make sure you take out all the sticks and seeds.
- If a good friend runs out of weed and you have some spare, give it to him and he in turn will reciprocate in your time of need.
- No wet mouth! It’s very impolite to get the end of the joint wet with saliva.

one other thing, if your invited in someone's house to toke, dont be a bitch punk. dont go ahead and act like you live there, dont ruin anything, dont touch anything, and damn dont go in someone's kitchen and raid it specially after they already went and got u munchies and a drink… just rude… MOST STONERS ARE INDEED FRIENDLY PEACEFULL PEOPLE

Whenever getting someone high for their first time ALWAYS get them super baked. I think skimping out on someone's first time is just wrong. It's disrespectful to the plant and the person.

Something that goes along with the saliva thing: chapstick, lipgloss, lipstick, etc. wipe your mouth off before you stick it on my joint/pipe.

ok i like these there are a few id change but most everone can say that. one thing though is if in a car. rotation always goes counter clock (if in left seat driving car) i say this because the driver is the high-man/womans best friend or should be. due to the fact he has ur life in his hands. and handing the blunt/bowl/joint to him from behind is difficult and some cant do it. so why not make it easier and have the front passenger pass it to him so without skipping roto, counter clockwise is perfect. and with the cracking of the windows. it all just depends i say. because if ur going somewhere and ur not trying to smell like weed, i leave the windows down completly if i have a blunt or joint(if i roll the dubie of course of a vet does) but if im with my boys and we dont need to worry about our cologne. then we keep the windows up completly box it out. i mean its easier with my eclipse cause the windows have a light grey tint. but it also depends on if u know the area. if ur new to the area or not used to driving high. then dont. lol. and the puff puff pass rule is for amateurs or, lol or if your smoking with a group and your the one who brought to wraps and bud and no1 pitches. then you have a right to regulate but at least with my crew we dont care. we roll our stuff right so they last a long time. even our dubies. so we can usually hold on to them for a few mins each and itll go around quite a few times. just how you roll it. also i hate it when ppl roll blunts and swear they pearled it. but then there are holes or gaps that stops the smoking quality. or those who roll super tight and u cant even pull. those ppl should let pros roll and if you are new pls dont be afraid to have some1 else roll even if u bought the stuff nothing is worse than a trash blunt cause you lose alot of what you bought. i did that for awhile i had others roll for me when i was learning how to. but id always have enough to practice on my own and just deal with my trash blunts alone. oh and at least for those like me who try and only mess with that cronic. lol me personlly if i invite you to smoke dont bring ppl. i mean if necessary ask but if we say no 4 w/e reason dont bring them. cause nothing is worse then 3 or 4 ppl smoking and 1 person not smoking but watching us smoke. we can always get them when we done. lol also be considerate of the non smokers there also. if your trying to smoke and there are ppl there that arent. go somewhere else. you never know they could have to drop the next day or w/e i think thats pretty much it lol

Absolutely torching the bong/bowl hit is a no no and i see it happens constantly. If its already lit there is no need to turn a fresh bowl into dust in one hit.

Don’t get paranoid!
Simple way to avoid it is to not think of getting caught lol.
Cause if one person starts getting paranoid it will spread like a virus alot of the time cause a complete buzz kill and ull be know as the ass tat ruined everyones high.

12 clashes with some of the others. This whole "puff puff pass" shit…..get out of the movies man. places where toking bud is legal (the netherlands) we dont worry about how many hits someone takes unless its a known mooch. in which case you just dont smoke with them. Just share your weed, let people take hits, relax and do w/e. I understand how frustrating it can be when someone holds it and tells a story, but just put your hand out, while listening to the story, and 99% of the time they will continue to talk, apologize, and hand you the j or blunt. relaxxxxx. ya'll need to burn more if your worrying so much about how many hits and how fast people are taking them. Let the bud burn baby

always be ready to take a hit, dont make the man hold it forever, and when your buddys got the roach and its burning the shit out of his fingers, take it from him. or he might drop it.

This isn't a rule, but I HATE when people act like they're super fucked up when they are high and act like they are drunk or something. It just makes them look obnoxious. You don't have to act different to look cool or whatever.

Do NOT bring a dickhead friend with you who wants to look cool but doesn't even smoke so puffs into thier mouths ONLY & then blows it straight out! Or DO NOT BE this dickhead! It happened to me once when I brought my then boyfriend to a party & he did it. I broke up with him on the spot. God I hate fuckwits like this! HATE, HATE,HATE!

Some I would add:
If you are getting high and it wasn't yours, be grateful.
Don't criticise the speed of the roll. Infact the person talking and being a dick about it, makes it take even longer.
If it's not your weed, NEVER say "there's hardly any weed in that, put some more in".
Keep the music at a level you're all comfortable with.
And don't argue… about anything. It's really not worth it!

If you know your going to go smoke and can't afford to throw in some cash, make sure to bring some chips or somethin from your pantry. These rules are good for large groups, but when it's just you and your boys, man take it easy! I mean yeah always remember the rules, but when your with your buddies, you can do the skippin thing no problem! Cause its kinda funny when the person that your skippin doesn't know it! Haha! That actually happens to me, and it's damn funny! Down here in Missouri we don't really care too much about etiquette, just be friendly, nice, and bring munchies or trees, it don't matter we all relaxed down here in the sticks =)
Stay high my friends =)

One suggestion-common sense really-if you have or are getting a cold sore, DO NOT smoke with others until its gone! You really don;t want to give them the virus.
Thank you.

New guy (or girl) always gets first toke in my circle of friends.

Never pocket another's lighter
Always share with your real homies, b/c they will always get you back
Use a grinder instead of fingers, makes the rolling process easier for whoever is doing the deed
Lastly, this is a big one for me and my friends, someone bring the gum. The ladies HATE smokers breath

Kicking off big time about fucking up the rotation is so childish, mistakes happen, its a smoke up not a fukin dictatorship i dont give a shit what cheech and chong or whoever said…

A friend with weed is a friend indeed. A friend who shares is a friend who cares.

Wow, you missed a real biggie here… A joint never goes past more than 3 people!!
If the group is bigger than that, have the person sitting opposite you skin up as well. That way everybody gets a decent share, and nobody complains about only getting two shitty tokes on the roach.
