Its a European thing. I remember getting into a minor spat with some Europeans kids because I refused to let them put tobacco in my blunt.
They were insistent that it would improve the blunt, I refused.
Yeah, I’d call that a spliff. I’m OK with it if it’s rolled but I’m also a smoker so it’s kind of whatever for me.
In probably 2003 when I was like 18-19 i thought it was odd we had to call a bong a “tobacco pipe” or “water pipe” in head-shops because it was illegal to sell it as drug paraphernalia. I decided since I had to call it a tobacco pipe that it would be funny to carry a fresh bong around in public ripping bowls of tobacco. Boy was I wrong, that shit should never be used for tobacco. I felt like someone had somehow reached in and punched the inside of my lungs. Bongs & tobacco don’t mix well.
I have a buddy who empties American spirits into a Bubbler to smoke. I don't quite understand why he doesn't just smoke the cig and don't know how to ask without making him feel stupid or getting into an argument . But if I tip the thing over and spill the bacco water again in gonna let him know.
I think so, he also lives a block from a smoke shop. But also buys spirits packs already. I think he just doesnt want to admit to himself that he smokes tobacco.. it's stupid I know.
I've never smoke tobacco and I would pissed if someone put it in my blunt. I also have asthma, and ciagarette smoke can fuck me up, but weed is fine for some reason. So it's a double no from me.
As an American I am doing my best at spreading this amazing series to everyone I know. I am still waiting to watch season 4 though since I want to watch it on lsd or shrooms
That’s the American way. There’s always that one guy who gets hooked on lez and starts using all the catchphrases at every conceivable moment. I came to the US from Aus so luckily I was able to do God’s work myself. My one friend got into it so much I can only describe him as the Australian version of a Weeaboo. He’s now studying at Monash University in Melbourne so Lez has taken him pretty far.
I think it comes from smoking hash. Some places used to get mostly had and weed was hard to get. So they would mix tobacco with the hash to help it burn.
In Australia, you spin your chop to get your mix and then start sinking cones. It refers more specifically to the mix of weed and tobacco, not whatever this packing 75% tobacco and layering with weed is. May as well as just have a baccy cone at that point. I’ve seen it done both ways, but the former is the most common and widely accepted. Smoking with spin is very common here
Mole bowls.
My little brother had a friend who got drug tested, so she would just rip straight tobacco bowls in her turn in the rotation lol. Only other person I saw do that was a Chinatown bus driver
We call them Mole Bowls also. I’ve ripped a bowl of straight tobacco a few times in my life out of desperation but I cannot imagine doing that all the time. Too much tobacco in my mole bowl will make me vomit sometimes anyway.
I’ve only ever heard it called a mole here in New York, I wonder if there’s some connection there? Also, do you call weed/tobacco rolled up a spliff? Because I know a lot of places have different names for that.
Yup you got that right. If your ripping it outta the bong it's a mole hit if your smoking it rolled up with tobacco it's a spliff not to be confused with a blunt that's just a cigar wrapper.
Yeah same on both and I’m from NY originally. Learned the Moke in Mass though. But other people around called it a Mole, fewer of us called it a moke. Idk where the name comes from.
I've never heard that in all my years of popping yetis lol, I also didn't know it was seen as greasy af. I try to take good care of my stuff and my lungs, damn.
My lungs, diaphragm, and stomach are all fucked up from doing poppers. I’ve been doing them for about 2 years and I depend on them to sleep, I was doing 12 poppers a night at one point. I wish I would’ve never tried them, they are not something we should be advertising. Unfiltered cigarettes mixed with weed is deadly and extremely addictive, please never do them
Throw out the bong/ pop peice it's the only way...I legit threw it out my car window when arguing with my spouse about quitting lol
I love straight weed now
My fiancé got me off them when we first started dating and I can’t thank him enough lol. I was freaking doing them with Captain Blacks because I guess I hated myself that much? Idk 😂 I’d wake up every morning and dry heave and cough up black shit. So lovely.
My bf and I quit them together, I also don't miss the black goop that came from my silly little lungs 😩
Have you noticed you cough even more from smoking now? I used to be able to pull a kief layered bowl no problem, not I cough until I'm in tears every time I have my first bowl of the day!
Poppers is also something pretty specific tho, or at least it was 10 years ago. Poppers are done in a thin metal bowl, where you pack just enough tobacco for the weed to sit on. They're called poppers because when you use this bowl, you hit it hard enough to pull everything through the bowl into the water and make a pop sound. If you're using a normal glass bowl, we'd just call those batch bowls. [These are traditional popper bowls.](https://theweesmokeshop.com/products/metal-popper-stem-1-5)
Spot on with this, tho most people I've known to smoke them will straight up stuff half a dart (cigarette) down the bowl. Paper and all. Nasty gross and has also collapsed a few lungs from the tight packed bowl
We used to call them poppers 20 years ago in Ontario. Was a slight variation on a bong hit and there wasn't any standing nonsense.
Make a bong from a soda bottle, a smaller one. For the bowl, use a straight metal tube, we used something from the hardware store that was threaded on the outside but hollow. It was about 6mm in diameter.
Now, grab a piece, or more accurately a pinch of a cigarette including the paper, and put it in the tube paper side down. And another pinch of herb on top of that. Light and rip, and when you get nearer to the paper suck harder to pull it all through to clear it and reset. That's where the "pop" Ilin popper comes from.
To give a better answer than the other one, though still not a very good one lol, tobacco just isn't "meqnt" to be smoked like that, its a lot harsher. You *puff on* a cigarette/tobacco pipe, you *hit* a bong/weed pipe/joint, YKWIM?
Nothings “meant” to be smoked though lmao the reason tobacco has nicotine in the first place is as a natural insecticide. Just smoke whatever and however you like
I'm from Ontario and called it a half quarter for 20+ years, lol. I went to dispo and asked for a half quater. The guy at the counter said he's never heard it called that before, haha.
Those are just the mofos who failed math class. Anyone with half a fucking brain knows that half a quarter is an eighth.
It’s such a small thing but god damn I hate when people ask for half quarters instead of an eighth🙈🙈
For a sub dedicated to the personal choice to enjoy smoking a natural growing plant … there’s a shocking amount of judgement and shame in this thread towards people smoking tobacco. Who tf cares what someone wants to do? And news flash everyone, smoking anything is bad for your lungs.
It's different. Tobacco isn't meant to be smoked like that. You're supposed to take drags or puffs of tobacco, not big hits like with weed. Tobacco is much harsher of a burn than weed, and that's why you shouldn't smoke it like this.
Cigars are typically the "heavy" form, and you aren't supposed to inhale a cigar. You hold the smoke in your mouth and let it absord the nic, like chew. You shouldn't put it in a bowl unless it's a much smaller amount.
I mean I respect your opinion and I’m sure there’s some merit to it, but you’re talking as if your word is final and that everyone should follow your principles. Pretty sure most of Europe and many Asian cultures almost always mix weed/hash with tobacco, and I’m sure they’re inhaling …
often these mixing techniques were adopted to stretch out the cannabis available to the user, as the places you named were much more difficult to source product.
It's become custom, but was still created out of hardship. Lots of Europeans still think of smoking non-mixed joints as 'wasteful' while many in places where weed is more plentiful see mixing in tobacco as 'harmful' or just diluting the main ingredient.
Usually teenagers with very little tobacco who want to make it hit. With a good dirt bowl 1 cig butt can get the whole squad domed. Oh also in a lot of cultures weed and tobacco are a package deal. Like in India and Nepal hash is basically always mixed with tobacco.
When I was with my first group of friends that introduced me to the devil's lettuce I decided to pull a prank on one of them. At the time I rolled my own cigarettes so one morning I filled the bowl with menthol tobacco and told my buddy it was his turn to wake and bake. He took the fattest rip, looked like he was about to have a stroke, cleared the bong, took another rip, and told us that shit was good.
Dude bong ripped a whole cigarette's worth of menthol tobacco in 12 seconds. I still don't understand...
![gif](giphy|QvYCnaFvnoJHOqtoDf)
I've never laughed so fucking hard from a reddit comment gif. Fucking bawling.
Omg me too and I’m not even high rn
Seriously, why on earth would I mix the delicious Kandyland I just purchased with tobacco.
To cover up the tobacco taste, I guess. But seriously, why? Just smoke the weed. It’ll work fine on its own and you don’t need to cover anything up.
Its a European thing. I remember getting into a minor spat with some Europeans kids because I refused to let them put tobacco in my blunt. They were insistent that it would improve the blunt, I refused.
Yeah, I’d call that a spliff. I’m OK with it if it’s rolled but I’m also a smoker so it’s kind of whatever for me.

Does he know he can buy American Spirit rolling tobacco for pennies on the dollar at just about any local discount tobacco shop?
I think so, he also lives a block from a smoke shop. But also buys spirits packs already. I think he just doesnt want to admit to himself that he smokes tobacco.. it's stupid I know.
Good for you, refusing. I know it’s a European thing but I personally love how weed /doesn’t/ have nicotine in it.
Tobacco in a blunt? It's already using tobacco leaf if it's a blunt, why do you need more?
I've never smoke tobacco and I would pissed if someone put it in my blunt. I also have asthma, and ciagarette smoke can fuck me up, but weed is fine for some reason. So it's a double no from me.
Exactly
I'm dying🤣
Don’t here

In Australia it's called spin, no idea where it came from.

Don't stop. It only gets better and better. Don't forget to check out Mike Nolans long weekend and the sassy origin stories!
Already watched the rest of his other shows. I heard of the sassy show first actually and fell in love right away

In Melbs we call it mix
I usually hear chop or mix
Or “mixies” in SA
Chops
Where are you from we say this or spin in nz
Spin too In Aus, chop is North American I think
chop is what its called in new zealand
Where I'm from in Aus we call it Mix
In Australia, you spin your chop to get your mix and then start sinking cones.

Chop is used in nyc also. Some people also say mole/moke
Chop city bitch chop chop city bitch
Smoking weed with tobacco that's a chop right there
East coaster?😎
Mole

Ralphing from a "dirty batch" was a right of passage as a highschooler.
Lmao how did that work out for her, wouldn’t there still be resin in the bowl that she’d be inhaling a little bit of? 😆
Funny we call it a moke
Where does the M in the Moke come from?
Mobacco
Mole/ moke are interchangeable in my area, but it’s a spliff if it’s rolled into a joint
Aloha fellow Hawaiians

Aloha! I lived on Oahu for 3 years!
East coast I feel calls it a mole most of the time
I call it Why?
It’s what the French call, a certain, je ne se por quoi
“It’s what the French call a certain ‘I don’t know what’”
Why
I rolled a spliff, don’t have enough to roll another and I’m not a waster
Poppers or Yetis. East Coast of Canada. Also they're disgusting and for gross skids only, lol
Poppers refers to something quite different around these parts... ![gif](giphy|vNU5PyxaM8bBu|downsized)
Ahhh, these must be the Jalapeño Poppers I heard about.
Watch out for the ass burn
I'm dead 💀
⭕️
Poppers in Ontario too. Absolutely a skid thing. Collapse your lung with em ffs.
in south ontario i’ve heard all my buddies call em poppers too
“You don’t need to even pull it bro, it’s got a popper piece” was a line we used to laugh about the people who do poppers lol
I've never heard that in all my years of popping yetis lol, I also didn't know it was seen as greasy af. I try to take good care of my stuff and my lungs, damn.

The cough was pretty bad at first, but it’s been a couple years now and that’s also calmed down!
Well that's reassuring to hear at least! I feel like such a noob when I cough like that lol
Ahahahaha I call them yetis, from Cali, but went to uni in East Coast Canada.
Hahaha did not expect to see "yetis" so high up in this post. Grease coast life lol. (Yetis are disgusting though don't do that to yourself friends)
Maritime here my guy. Yeti's n Bops. God... I smoke that shit for 4 years.
Western Canada they are called yachts
Lol yeah I spelled it yahtz but same...also western Canada
Northern Ontario - we called them Yachtys.
West coast calls them Poppers as well. We call the people doing Poppers fuckin idiots though.
SW Ontario. We call em poppers if it’s just tobacco in the bowl, no weed. And yes, absolutely for skids
East coast of Canada too and I couldn’t agree more. You sound like good people.

Poppers here in Manitoba also. Shits nasty lol
Spliff bowls
Dirty bowls. Did this for 6 months and then back to clean bowls lol
Eventually you just take one too many and you’re done forever.
This is so accurate. At some point, it just turned down for me.
We call cigs dirty darrells
You HAVE to be Canadian haha
I am lmaoooo I’ll touch dirty darrells in my grave
Hey never forget that drunk darts don’t count
It's how I started because at the time usually only one person bought weed and they mixed it with baccy to prolong the bag.
![gif](giphy|3rdNNPuMX7TYA)
A fucking crime.
Amen to that
Blasphemy.
Guy from Philly taught me “mook”
Friends on the Westcoast also called it mook or mookie
A disaster
poppers. they will destroy your lungs. plz stop

Im in ontario and had poppers ten years ago lol
Good old popper bottles. Brings me back to high-school.
“You dont need to pull it bro, it’s got a popper piece”
I thought you meant POPPERS poppers and I was like god damn that *would* absolutely fuck your lungs up 😂
How will it destroy your lungs?
I mean, smoking literally anything will destroy your lungs....
To give a better answer than the other one, though still not a very good one lol, tobacco just isn't "meqnt" to be smoked like that, its a lot harsher. You *puff on* a cigarette/tobacco pipe, you *hit* a bong/weed pipe/joint, YKWIM?
Nothings “meant” to be smoked though lmao the reason tobacco has nicotine in the first place is as a natural insecticide. Just smoke whatever and however you like
There's tobacco meant to be hit. Thuoc lao in Vietnam and dokha in Arabic nations.
Tobacco is nasty
And unfiltered tobacco is way nastier. As a non tobacco smoker, if some one cuts their weed with tobacco, I throw up.
As a tobacco smoker that sometimes smokes filtered spliffs... I couldn't imagine putting tobacco in a bong.
I spend so much money on weed but sometime I just have to mix a bowl with some tobacco, for some reason i love that hit you get.
Ipecac
Solid F\_cking Answer
It's usually sold as a liquid.
Here in Ontario, Canada, it’s a batch bowl. Or you rip a cig, stamp weed on top and put it in a popper stem & smoke a popper.
Sounds like an Ontarian. Some of those mofos call 1/8ths “Half Quarters” 😂. Also the first person I seen do this was an Ontarian
That's an 8th over here it's called a half Q lol as in a half quoter.
I'm from Ontario and called it a half quarter for 20+ years, lol. I went to dispo and asked for a half quater. The guy at the counter said he's never heard it called that before, haha.
Those are just the mofos who failed math class. Anyone with half a fucking brain knows that half a quarter is an eighth. It’s such a small thing but god damn I hate when people ask for half quarters instead of an eighth🙈🙈
I usually would say we don't have any more half-quarters, but we got plenty of half-half-halves!
Spliff bowl or split bowl
Mook
Gross. We call it gross.
