        My friend went to France back in the day and blew people’s minds when he rolled a tobacco free joint

          Never really put tobacco in a joint, but i do love to spliff my blunts. The tobacco really smooths out the weed and is calming.

        So you don´t like blunts? Why do you even mind how others enjoy their weed, just let people do their thing, smh …

          If that’s what people want to do on their own, that’s fine. My issue is when they hand it to you saying it’s a joint, only to be surprised when it’s basically a cigarette with a tiny bit of weed sprinkled in. I hate smoking tobacco.

          I’ve quickly learned to always ask what is actually in it before accepting.

            Agreed, that is in fact pretty disgusting. I was thinking of a 1:1 ratio at max, with less tobacco than that it should not be called a joint.

              If I use any tobacco at all, its just pure tobacco at the tip as a filter. You dont really smoke it if you dont want to, but it prevents wasted flowers

            To be fair, that’s just what’s called a joint in Germany. Maybe a 70/30 ratio of tobacco to weed.

              Yeah, I’ve been living in Germany. Learned quite quickly to never trust a “joint”.

              Ya’ll should learn the word “spliff”. That’s what it’s for.

                Yeah we should. I guess younger people already do.

                Well that’s just from my perception in the Rhineland region in the 90s and 2000s.

                Of course, we used mainly other terms like Dübel, Tüte or Sportzigarette.

                How would you differ?

                  I did not refer to the name but to the ratio. It very much depends on the scene imo. It reaches from pure weed in the reggae scene, a 1:1 mix in the hiphop scene, to almost pure tobacco in “weekend weed smoker” scenes and also just depends a lot on the individual who rolled. That is of course only my personal experience.
