but no filter
smh my head
You don't use a filter in a joint, it filters the THC. Do you mean a roach?
Wait did you mean like a ciggie filter or just a bit of spiralled cardboard?
Edit: okay only bri'ish call them roaches I've learnt π
Yeah just some rolled up cardboard to keep the bits of weed from getting in your mouth, usually from the rolling paper package or a pack of darts (Canadian for "cigarettes") or whatever
Yeah that's a roach to us and yep made from cutting up the skin box lmao.
Oh you call them darts? I've heard ciggies, a bind, foxtrot-alpha-golf's (the North needs to have a word with itself) and straights lmao which is my personal fav.
All my queer friends and me smoke rollies and we all have a good laugh anytime someone wants to borrow a cig but like a cigarette and not a rolly and its like "no sorry I don't like straights" and we all laugh at ourselves and nobody talks to us.
I'm old we never used filters back in the day, sometimes we'd use what we called a crutch which was just a piece of whatever thin cardboard we could find rolled into a cylinder.
Those are all you need. Keeps the flower out of your mouth and letβs you burn almost all of it (or maybe all and Iβm a coward)
Oh we call them roachs
A roach is just the end of a joint that got put out. Sometimes we'd roll all the roaches into a new joint and that's a generation joint.
My buddy and I used to keep several generations of roaches going at once. So once you have enough roaches, you roll all those into a joint to create a "second generation joint". Then once you have enough 2nd generations you can make 3rd, and eventually 4th, and at that point those will just knock you on your ass
one time I smoked a roach from a backwood blunt in the bong and immediately passed out on the floor. Woke up with the stereotypical circle of faces staring down at me (I was only out for a few seconds)
I'm with you throughout this thread. Learning all the regional differences lmao.
I know the european ones but it's understandable there because they're different languages.
Finally the theory we all came to hexbear for πͺ
Generally crutch or filter is the name for the cardboard around here and then the roach is what's leftover at the end whether it's got a crutch or not.
I like no crutches but I usually smoke a joint then shove the roach into a bowl and finish it off.
Or save it for later but then you've gotta carry around the stinking stub of a joint.
Ah so when we don't use a roach/crutch/filter we call it "French style" after French style roll up cigarettes without the filter.
Don't know if that's actually French or not but that's what it's called lmao.
Nothing worse when you're stood in a lift with a boomer and you know they can smell it but don't know what that smell is.
That's funny if you told me French style I'm pretty sure I'd think of those fancy long cigarette holders
Oh those posh cigarette wands? I really want one.
