Not bad. Until I managed to get a decent pipe, I always just made ghetto-bongs with Coke cans and a safety-pin. :lol2:

Back when I smoked I used to roll my own cigarettes - they taste way better than the processed crap you get in cartons. I can't tell you the number of times I was approached in a very forthright manner by gentlemen in pubs and nightclubs intent on removing me from the premises.

That image does not depict joint rolling. It depicts rolling a tobacco cigarette, as step 6 shows placing a filter in the paper. (although I cant figure out what steps 2 and 3 are supposed to be showing). And also, the end product has no twisty property inherent to joints, but the tell tale cylindrical shape up a cigarette.

If anyone out there is putting filters in their joints, some LOL cat needs to tell them they're doing it wrong. :smokin:

Aren't steps two and three showing how to make a roach out of the paper holder, and then you shove it in under step 6?

Ha! You may be right, since I've never heard of such a thing, ever, I certainly cant negate it.

For us, a roach was just the end bit that was left and had to transfer to an alligator clip to hold. Never heard of contructing a roach structure a priori. Who's doing this?

Yah, really. I think John is pulling our collective legs. Either that, or the Brits haven't discovered alligator clips. :hat:

Quagmire, it is common practice to tear off a little cardboard from the rolling paper pack, to roll into a roach. This roach is often called a 'filter', although it doesn't actually filter anything out.

We never did that but it's a pretty good idea. If you didn't have a clip you had to play 'Yellowfingers'.

Pretty smart, I'd say. With the price of that stuff these days, this 'roach' thing is a good idea.

The other thing you can do is save up roaches, and roll them into a new joint. (or use a pipe)

Common to who? I've smoked many a joint with many a folk, across many a social strata and never heard of it or saw it. (and I think a got a fewish years on you).

When an alligator clip wasnt available, we'd pinch it between a couple of coins. No need for this stoner origami nonsense.

noobs.

Or just use a pipe to begin with. I never alligned with joint philosophy. Only for convenience of portability, when necessary. But you generally smoke the whole thing, which is wasteful. Or if you put it out and save it for later, you got the smelly ashy half smoken joint being all unsightly. Then when you get down to the roach, you're sucking at it like a stroke victim, getting mostly paper which burns your throat. Screw that noise.

A few hits off of a pipe, and you're done. No waste, no hassles.

Interesting.

My take on that article is that the item in question is an England thing.

A bit ambiguous in paragraph 2 about America. It mentions the 'filter' as the english roach counterpart, but also remarks roach in the states refers to the butt end, as I mentioned earlier. Still never heard of it before. Nor Sue or Mik, makes me guess its a new thing? Recently migrated across the pond?

Or perhaps I was too baked to notice.

C'mon, old timer. Leave the dope to the kids. Our time has been up on that for a long while now.

I think I just... outgrew it, or something. I used to really like it a lot, but in recent years, it started making me feel more like I'd just had too much to drink: I'd feel a little dizzy, a little sick, and the whole experience just became unpleasant, so I left it behind. I do think it should be decriminalized, though.

I find that it helps me greatly at work dealing with awkward situations and difficult customers. The other pilots disagree, but they're such a bunch of fuddy duddies.
