Fun ways to smoke cannabis
My old roommate Dan fancied himself a Weed Scientist.
That was his name for it, I thought he was just a goofy dude who liked to build things.
He was in engineering school at the time, although he would later drop out to go work on a hemp farm. Dan liked to conceive, design, and build elaborate bongs, pipes, and other pot smoking devices. The beauty of cannabis lies in simplicity, of course, and making it complicated doesn’t add anything to the potency, but it was still a little bit of fun to see what he came up with. Personally I think a pipe or a joint is good enough, but Dan wanted to find new excotic ways of smoking cannabis. One time he built a two-story bong, where the bowl was at the bottom of the stairs and mouthpiece at the top. One person had to stand down below to put fire to the cannabis, while the person up top had to suck for a while to get a taste of smoke. It looked cool, but by the time the cannabis smoke traveled eighteen feet it was cold and weak. The one time he did create something amazing was when he built a three-chambered gravity bong that was like a cannon for cannabis. It took a whole nickel bag worth of marijuana to fully pack it, but just one hit would get you so high you might throw up or fall asleep immediately after. That was a lot of fun, but I still prefer to smoke cannabis the simple way.
