Since Germany’s legalisation, I started rolling joints myself instead of making my SO do all the work lol

    Ahhh yes the tampon phase. I remember those days.

    Although in 2024 I would recommend anyone to be done with smoking and buy a vaporizer. Even if you don’t consume as much, a dynavap is only 40-60EU, allows you to pretty much use any heat source, gives excellent vapor and is built to last.

    Vaporents are the future :)

      There’s the ritual, doing the thing, and the social aspects of joints. I love a good vape too, but absolutely nothing will ever replace joints and blunts for me.

      Dry herb flavor is bonkers. But, I’ve found that the effects are very different for me vs combustion. With combustion being preferred.

      Interesting. They seem to be having a sale right now where I can get a rad neon pink colour “b” variant vape for 20€. Is this any good?

      And compared to smoking with coal filters, are capes less damaging in terms of smoking? Afaik, it should be because you’re essentially only inhaling hot air instead of actually burning matter, right? Not a huge concern for me, but something I’d be interested to know.

        I have no experience with the B but I think they should be fine. It’s the same tip as the M but just a silicone stem. There will be a durability difference in relation to stainless steel obviously but that’s why it’s cheaper.

        Make sure to watch a few videos because there is a little bit of a learning curve and the activity itself is different from smoking a joint.

        With regards to health vaping is currently assumed to be definitely less hazardous.

          I went ahead and ordered the B. Looking forward to giving it a go. Thanks for the recommendation :)

            No problem man. I hope it works out for you! I found it something to get used to after I stopped smoking tobacco 5 years ago but I went haven’t looked back ever since.

            Enjoy!

      My tolerance is too high for vapes. I only get a little high and it only lasts a little bit. Gotta smoke to go from sober to instantly high and for a high that lasts.
