Bong in big trouble

[steve shearer]

She looks like she could be the wife or mistress of a french Prezident.......she has a certain European savoir faire that seems to elevate her from the typical Target bogan chickadee.

[collnarra]

look, I'm sure she could suck a tennis ball through a garden hose, but that doesn't make her hot.

I hear Bong just made there entire N.S.W sale office redundent. Bong going down will have some serious effects on all other brands seeing as tho they own most of the surf shops nowdays.

Don't go to Mosman then Steve. You would cream your pants if you like striped business shirts and pearls with your aging cougars.

hey Pussy trippin, you gotta have some inside dirt to post that little clanger...and all so new and shiny from a historical pow..tell us more because what you say seems spot on

^^^see this is the sort of old school surf skill that went hand in hand with making boardies in a caravan.

Speaking of which, I saw an abandoned Orchy bottle bong (though it wasn't actually an Orchy bottle but some other brand of juice I don't recall at the moment) sitting on a nature strip a while back.

Brought back memories of raiding neighbours' yards & hacking into their hoses with blunt kitchen knives under the cover of darkness.

I'd need to see a length of garden hose hanging out a a petrol tank to bring back one memory.

we used to make billys out of sambuca bottles. good venturi effect.

We'd cut the middle section of garden hose in affluent areas and the end sections of the working classes. Very considerate

There isn't much difference between a cougar & a Sabre Toothed Tiger

Its the colour of the pelt. Although I'd prefer a few rounds with a hungry cougar than a sabre tooth.

Before orchy bottles and hoses we denisens of the Far North Coast used to perfect the highly sort after skill of rolling banana leaf chillums which were then immersed in an orchy bottle. The trick being to: 1 get the f*cker firing properly and 2 keep it firing as it got passed around.
Driving around looking for banana trees was also part of the ritual which was annually made easier by the Tweed Banana Festival when they used to tie banana trees up all down the main street.

talking of bongs in trouble, I have a friend whom I have calculated maintains a 72 cones per day (CPD) average. Has done so for the last 20 years.

I wonder whether a) he still gets baked or b) if he's just constantly baked.

He gets up in the middle of the night for maintenance cones and the first thing he reaches for after turning off his alarm clock is, you guessed it, his billy.

[Nick Carroll]

Yeah but there's no such thing as marijuana addiction.

[Beanpole]

As Ali G says.....then you must have been getting ripped off.
Plenty of people have screwed up because of dope but very often the "addiction" is actually the physical addiction to the tobacco they cut their mix with. Thats quite apart from the mental addiction.

[Beanpole]

I cringe to think of some of the unhealthy activities that were commonplace in my formative years.
Went to someone that I went to school with's house years ago and they had the full barney with their wife about
who had been smoking who's stash
I thought this was pathetic on about three counts including the fact that they were doing it in front of me. Particularly since I had only met her a couple of times. Once being at their wedding when she told me she didn't want Terry's friends hanging around their place. I heard they got divorced. You would think they would get over it but apparently not.

[crabmeat thompson]

Pretty stoked not to know anyone at this age that smokes bongs. Actually pretty happy not to know too many pot smokers non stop. The ones I do know from many years ago I pretend I don't. It's not a judgement thing it's just such a sad life for someone over 30, I can't bare to be near them.

We might have been separated at birth.

Give me a hug little brother.

[collnarra]

on the scale of things, dope isn't particularly expensive if you're not smoking huge amounts. I think - and I don't know 100%, coz I don't bong on anymore - it goes for about $100 - $120 for a quarter oz, which is the same as it was when I was a young stoner. It hasn't kept pace with inflation.

the problem is when you are maintaining 72 CPD averages you ARE smoking huge amounts, and it adds up. Throw in the cost of durries for your mix, and you're looking at an expensive habit. I don't know how much my mate spends on weed, but I do know his car is a wreck, he's constantly broke, and basically spends every evening on the hunt for gear.

Also, this bloke reckons he hasn't smoked a durry in 20 years. Still throws baccy in his mix, tho .... I think it's called delusion.

[saucy gibbon]

The funniest part is that it's pretty easy to grow

The only reason weed should send you broke is coz ya too wasted to hold down a job
