My friends and I call Duex when smoking blunts. That means you get second hit, whoever is rolling it lights it up. Then you pass it to your left. Its just like musical chairs really though lol quite entertaining
This reminds me, some of my friends play a similar game, whenever someone sparks up, someone will yell "Tuesday" and from there all chaos erupts as you hear the days of the week go by in a flash and everyone jumps up to get in order.
Lol

My smoking customs are about on par with everyone else's:

Always pass to the left.

Never hit a pipe/joint with slobbery lips.

Never green the entire bowl if you hit it first. Always save some green for the 2nd person to hit.

Never pass a cashed bowl/bong.

Match a bowl if you have weed of your own.

Never let the joint run.

Don't hit the pipe/joint if you are sick.

Don't run your mouth while you're holding the joint/pipe.

Lol
We always end up playing an unspoken game of musical chairs, everyone not quite committing to a seat until we see who is throwing down/rolling up first. Then it is a race to be the first to sit to the left. Repeat when everyone gets up to get munchies. If it is a bowl that everyone has thrown in for then it's a 4 person rock, paper, scissors battle til the last man is standing. Always provides good entertainment.

Around here its not designated, but it usually goes to the left unless house rules specify otherwise

hey man, i was just giving you tips on how to get laid :)

I do it for the ladies i dig too. this girl was over a few weeks ago and i had to give up the greenz. i guess i do it for any guest, especially since i have a stash of homegrown. no reason to be stingy. i do however think if you're on a date, it's rude to take the first hit, it shows that you're only concerned with yourself (and cheap) and that's not the type of guy girls want to fuck.

Lol. I know, I was just teasing the ladies a bit. I just thought of that pic when I read your post about ladies first. I actually agree, I'm quite old school in that regard. I've always been a ladies first, let others go before yourself, type man my whole life.

But having said that, I learned at a pretty young age how to spot a 'lady' who takes you for a chump and ends up just using you. lol

these aren't all superstitions, some are just rules.

1. be polite, pass to the right (unless i'm sitting on the left. then i zip it.)
2. if you put on chapstick before a session you get slapped out of the sife
3. if we're splitting the bag, and you insist on doing the split, i pick first and you pick last
4. the carb MUST be on the left side of the bowl
5. if you cough or laugh into the bong, YOU fucking clean it
6. if you try to sleaze your way into the sife instead of asking, you get skipped
7. if you have a cold sore fuck off

if any of these get violated i've been known to take my ball and go home (or just sit that one out)

i simply have to ask total as i've never heard the term before, what on earth is a sife?? i'm sure it's probably an acronym for something, but i've never heard it before..

hahahaha a sife (or syphe, i've seen it spelled both ways) is just the smoking circle. it also refers to the smoking order or rotation, as in, "you broke the sife now you wait" if someone leaves the room then tries to grab a hit the second he walks back in. around here it's considered very impolite to break a sife and then douche your way back in. it's like using someone for their weed but then hanging out in the other room.

hmm. maybe its kind of a local term?? i've been smoking for idk, maybe 20 years or so at least, and i've never heard that term, lol.. but it wouldn't surprise me to find out that say your area of the country has it's own terms for things like that.. stranger things have happened, lol...
but yah, i always love to hear new terms that to me seem local, or even not so much as terms, but even what items are local to some areas, and what may seem ordinary to me may never been heard or seen by lots of others..
i know around here, tasty cake are huge, but you go to almost any other state, and people are like wtf is a tasty cake.. i can't imagine growing up with out them, as i'm sure you can't imagine having grown up with out the sife if you know what i mean..

it could be a local thing but if so it's really set. i've heard old timers use it, and a while ago my friend's 15 year old nephew said it. i never once heard of the lighter superstition until i came on this site. interestingly, years ago there was this lighter that said "get buck wild" on it that was hilariously tacky, and two different people got speeding tickets with that very lighter on their person. everyone kept stealing it from each other because it was kind of a funny thing to have. never knew anything about unlucky colors, though. i just know that a man is unlikely to steal a pink lighter.

lol.. i had a group of friends, probably about five or so of us, and we'd always have the steal the lighter contest, and every time we'd smoke a bowl, we'd probably all try and steal the lighter.. i never considered it stealing as we all knew about it, and it was kind of fun to see how long it would take to get your onw lighter back for a change, lol.. good times..

my friends and i are the same, always pocketing eachothers lighters, be it on purpose or not, so we turned it into a game.
in order for said lighter to be pocketed, it has to be on your person for 5 minutes before it being needed again or the owner asks for it.

at the end of the week if you have someone elses lighter they buy you a pack of cigs, or smoke you out.

One year I went on a lighter-thieving spree. I think I ended up at 32.
As to the white & yellow lighter "jinx", I never heard of it, but if you cap a bowl with a light-colored lighter... Eew!
Oh and another one- when you'd get up or leave the room you'd have to call "seat check" or risk losing your spot.
