You should try and help them then, you have to start somewhere :)

[–]Dickenshmirst 23 points24 points ago

I totally agree, we have ALL been there when we rolled our first jay, just remember how tricky it is at first.

[–]Charondas 12 points13 points ago

I'm fucking awful at it. I always have to ask a frient. My fingers just derp the fuck out.

Glad I'm not planning on performing surgery anytime soon :D

[–]susuwi 9 points10 points ago

oh man i have the same problem. my fingers have seizures when i have to do something steady lol

[–]Charondas 7 points8 points ago

I can do other stuff fine that requires finesse but I just can't do j's. Blunts I'm better at but I still prefer the art of packing that perfect bowl for a bong or pipe.

Seriously, think of it like building a campfire or a multilevel puzzle. When you pack a bowl that's tight but fluffy it's heaven.

[–]LUBE_IT_UP 1 point2 points ago

Practice makes perfect! I think its easier when you make them fat... that's my two cents.

[–]hotcobbler 1 point2 points ago

I am a master joint roller, and take it from me, using a small slip of printer paper to roll your own filter is a key to consistent joints. You can then ussr the filter as a guide while rolling to get an evenly distributed joint. Takes a little practice, but sewell worth it.

[–]Manic_Zed 3 points4 points ago

I just can't roll, I have tried countless times and fail, so I say fuck it and pack my vape.

[–]kwikymart711 1 point2 points ago

Agree, which I do. However, these thoughts still race through my brain I don't actually say them ;)

[–]poo_smudge 0 points1 point ago

That's the perfect way to say it. Thanks for being nice while trying to educate someone on the lifestyles of an Ent.

[–]Blindocide 169 points170 points ago

learning, is what they're doing.

what you're doing is being an asshole.

[–]dubbledutch 23 points24 points ago

Hell, if there's weed in it, I'm game. Even if it looks like a papier-mâché ping pong ball I'm content

[–]Blindocide 6 points7 points ago

awesome gif.

that's what I love about stoners. Weed? then I'm good.

[–]dubbledutch 9 points10 points ago

I love that gif. Even when people tell me I'm overusing it I just act all like...

[–]Blindocide 4 points5 points ago

god that guy's fucking face lmao.

[–]Dirty-DjAngo 2 points3 points ago

I knew what it would be but I couldn't stop myself from clicking

[–]hoodie92 0 points1 point ago

Agreed. I hate those people who pretend to be purists, saying the exact way to smoke and exactly how long to inhale or whatever. Just shut up and enjoy getting high.

[–]Ceejae 10 points11 points ago

It makes me sad that stuff like this can get to the top of /r/trees. Shows a bit of a community shift :(

[–]Blindocide 7 points8 points ago

YOU CAN'T ROLL A JOINT ON YOUR FIRST TRY? FOOL!

[–]morewaffles 1 point2 points ago

the community has already shifted to the point its not even worth coming here anymore

[–]poo_smudge 3 points4 points ago

r/trees used to be full of nice people who didn't insult each other and uptokes for all, Am I right? I hate what it's become but I can't be mad else I'll be just like them. I just feel sad when I see something like that make it to the top. Peace and love

[–]iamtrees420 1 point2 points ago

Nugs and hugs to you!

[–]Kieffin 1 point2 points ago

where I am from, theyll put it out, rip it up, and reroll it if sucks :/ I'm more of blunt guy anyway :p

[–]Blindocide 2 points3 points ago

i like bowls. just need a grinder and fingers. and not even necessarily the grinder or fingers.

[–]poo_smudge -1 points0 points ago

Me too, no one understands us blunt folks :*( It's like our cigar, Our glass of brandy. And I'll never change no matter how many papers and bongs are shoved in my face. Cognac mini dutches have the best leaves for me, What do you use?

[–]OctieveSan 1 point2 points ago

Teach me your ways.

[–]cockonmydick 1 point2 points ago

It makes me wonder how such a shit post from an obvious asshole even gets this many uptokes to bein with? Fuck this guy and the people that upvoted this jerk off

[–]Blindocide 0 points1 point ago

people are stupid. reddit is not a safe haven.

[–]subtlerobot 1 point2 points ago

I think op is just having a bit of fun.

[–]Blindocide 0 points1 point ago

certainly. but at the expense of looking like a cunt.

was it worth it? we'll never know.

[–]subtlerobot 0 points1 point ago

Well perhaps. But if youre so concerned with someone being mean, why are you doing the same?

[–]Blindocide 0 points1 point ago

is calling someone, who by all considerations has acted like an asshole, an asshole, being mean, or is that simply acknowledging the truth in front of the person who might like to hear that truth?

EDIT: yes I see the irony in acting like an asshole to an asshole. This isn't an intervention and I doubt OP is actually going to notice any of this.

[–]subtlerobot 0 points1 point ago

You have a good point. Assholery should be called out, and I guess I was calling you out because we have different opinions of op's intention. Was he being an asshole? We'll never know.

[–]Blindocide 0 points1 point ago

and you found the root of the problem.

[–]poo_smudge 0 points1 point ago

Hey Ents don't call people assholes. Pleaseeeeee dude. We're trying to preserve something here. :)

[–]flatcurve 33 points34 points ago

dude, even Michael Jordan had to dribble a basketball for the first time. Get off your high horse.

[–]YSCapital 6 points7 points ago

I read this as Michael Jackson and i'm not even high!

[–]HighSorcerer 3 points4 points ago

I'm sure Michael Jackson had to dribble a basketball for the first time, too.

But then he said "Fuck that" and moon walked off the court.

[–]Silver44 18 points19 points ago

FUCKING PAPERS

TUCK IN DAMN YOU

[–]Keselo 5 points6 points ago

After 6 months of rolling I still find that hard.

[–]GGatsby 19 points20 points ago

Don't judge them. Teach them, man.

Don't be a dick.

[–]Pwnspoon 30 points31 points ago

Help them don't talk shit to them.

[–]Dodgeberry 11 points12 points ago

You're a big meanie, mister.

[–]Tasik 6 points7 points ago

Quit judging me or I'll smoke my weed all by myself next time. Haha, I'm just kidding. But seriously.

[–]SteezeMcMuffin 7 points8 points ago

its all about practice there is only so much you can teach

[–]sad_bug_killer 6 points7 points ago

[–]ftpguy 2 points3 points ago

I have one of those, it's the best thing ever. I can't roll for shit by hand, but they come out perfect every time from that.

[–]Kieffin 0 points1 point ago

a dollar bill works too. try it lol

[–]sad_bug_killer 0 points1 point ago

Unfortunately, I don't have easy access to dollar bills

[–]aLevel99Pickachu 4 points5 points ago

shit, i still suck at it...

[–]IchooseYou 0 points1 point ago

That's okay, some of us don't have dexterity.

[–]Zed5 4 points5 points ago

I roll perfect, angelic joints (or so I'm told) and I gladly pass my wisdom on to anyone whom would like to learn. It's an art mah nigga, and art is for everyone.

[–]Dirty-DjAngo 2 points3 points ago

People shat on Hitler's art and look what happened there

[–]llama_boy 11 points12 points ago

dbag

[–]SpecterXs 2 points3 points ago

I took forever to start rolling well, but now I can roll like a champ. Being hard on them just frustrates them and makes it harder to roll 'cause you're putting them on the spot. Just give some pointers and let them figure out what works best for them.

[–]byrd798 2 points3 points ago

Normally I would say I rarely roll joints anyway (I have an Awsome bong), but last night my frient rolled an epic cross joint. So make your jokes I'm gonna start trying again.

[–]Jawthumb 2 points3 points ago

Did you light it together all three at once?

[–]byrd798 1 point2 points ago

Of course!

[–]Dirty-DjAngo 2 points3 points ago

Buy a pack of Bugler . How I learned to roll js

[–]Dodgeberry 2 points3 points ago

Same here, man.

[–]Andokool12 5 points6 points ago

being an asshole is cool

[–]smokeandashes 1 point2 points ago

Bongs all the way.

[–]tgould55 1 point2 points ago

I've been smoking for quite some time now, and have been smoking cigarettes for a lot longer-- I still can't roll. I simply don't have the dexterity. Plus I have alcoholic hands. Can't keep those motherfuckers steady for my life.

[–]Lazerspewpew 1 point2 points ago

Well, I've been smoking for like 5 years and I still can't roll a J, I'm terribad at it. I cheat and use a roller.

[–]applejack28 1 point2 points ago

I tried rolling my first one the other day. I watched MastahRolla's video where he uses a card and stuff, but I still can't do it nearly as easily as he can. Papers feel like they're tiny to me, but then again I'm tall and my hands are large. Either way, my first joint I rolled was not very good. I'll post pics later.

[–]xatticus 1 point2 points ago

pretty sure i just watched this gif for a full 5 minutes...

[–]BakedCowboy 1 point2 points ago

Haha that's me, fuck a J who wants a J anyway when I can give you a nice fat L, bitch.

[–]theviking10 1 point2 points ago

One day I decided to commit to joints and bought a pouch of tobacco and a book of papers. Rolled 25 cigarettes in an evening.

I'd pretty happy with my joint game now.

[–]moswagthanu 1 point2 points ago

Just remember, at one point, we were all that guy.

[–]Mishiru_Bruin 1 point2 points ago

As I just rolled my very first joint today >:P

[–]SlyAsAFox 1 point2 points ago

I've been smoking for 3 years, still can't roll a decent one. I've always felt like joints were a waste of weed, and that blunts burned much better.

[–]MasterRiven 1 point2 points ago

I would always recommend showing a newbie how to use a roller. Once they have the concept down of what the roller does, its easy to roll with your hands.

Also, practice makes perfect, and we all sucked at doing it at one point or the other. I'm still trying to teach my mother.

[–]fmaasnt 1 point2 points ago

I've been toking for 2 years and I cant roll a j.... )':

[–]putcreativenamehere 1 point2 points ago

A really good roller on here should do a tutorial!! That would be AWESOME :D

[–]gioraffe32 0 points1 point ago

See, you're one of the reasons why I don't roll J's for other people. I can roll Js for myself, but they're pretty skinny since so much falls out. It's hard enough rolling these skinnys. But to be in a group with a dbag who's going to call me out? Yeah, no dice.

[–]eMan117 0 points1 point ago

Im not new, and I still cant roll a nice K. I can roll one, but damn does that shit burn quick. So now, I stick to vapourizers.

[–]persian_panther 0 points1 point ago

After some disastrous first attempts, I just started cheating and using a pen to get the shape and pack the herb in.

[–]SkullKidOnShrooms 0 points1 point ago

I think "The Boat" method might help my fellow ents in need!

[–]Envia 0 points1 point ago

It takes time and practice for people to get it right. It took me almost 2 years but now I roll excellent ones.

[–]idrawinmargins 0 points1 point ago

I suggest getting a bunch of friends together, and getting a cheap oz. Then go buy a few packs of papers and roll away. Destroy the crappy ones, and smoke the good ones.

edit: also use a dollar afterwords to tighten it up if it is a bit loose.

[–]sberk07 0 points1 point ago

If you never let them do it, they will never learn for themselves

[–]grimpoteuthis 0 points1 point ago

I'm completely incapable of rolling joints, but blunts? It was like I was born for it. The first one I rolled was perfect and it was amazing.

[–]isthisevolution 0 points1 point ago

lol that cat was hilarious.

[–]pommedauphine 0 points1 point ago

At first I thought that said New Yorkers and got offended HA

[–]jalepenocheddar 0 points1 point ago

Thanks for the support, fuck out my face with your cat gif. Prepared for more downvotes than I can dole out here

[–]Grider95 0 points1 point ago

not a new toker but still can't roll :(

[–]jyosef 0 points1 point ago

Favorite gif ever.

[–]BassFlux 0 points1 point ago

Hey man, everybody's gotta try the first time at some point.

[–]nepalthrowawai 0 points1 point ago

Really? I find it interesting watching others roll, since I have to roll every damn time =D

And yea, met a guy who couldn't roll even tho he had smoked for 10 years. Dont feel bad :)

[–]iPinkribbon 0 points1 point ago

if your so great show them your skills :) ... teach them how to roll masters of j's

[–]couchdude 0 points1 point ago

OP is an asshole

People have to learn to do it before they can do it you fucking asshole.

[–]CoCoMartinez 0 points1 point ago

I still use the dollar trick. No prob

[–]VbolieuV 0 points1 point ago

As a guy who can't roll for roll for shit I'll answer you "Calm the fuck down dude."

[–]joecool519 0 points1 point ago

what a terrible attitude.

Also who says you have to be a noob if you can't roll. I've been smoking for a long ass time, and I've rolled maybe 10 j's in my life. I never do it alone, and my friends are always more keen to roll than I so I essentially never have had the chance to learn. Plus I'm too cheap to roll em on my own anway, and I got German sausage fingers.

[–]Downvote_my_Comments -1 points0 points ago

I do everything right except for that first fucking thumb tuck. Mine always end up flat and square instead of round. My mind knows the steps but my thumbs refuse to participate.

[–]Newtothetoke 0 points1 point ago

I've been smoking for 3 weeks and I roll perfect joins... So what if I use a machine!

[–]NHsucks -1 points0 points ago

[–]theobanger -4 points-3 points ago

That may be the best .gif I have ever seen. [7]
