The cannabis culture has developed many different rules and rituals when it comes to consumption.

There are certain little actions that are expected of every stoner during a smoking session, and other actions which are highly frowned upon. Today we’ll take a closer look at the “Seven Deadly Sins of Stoner”.

We’ve all been guilty of these sins and for repeat offenders, you might be building up some cannabis karma points against you…so next time a pipe of yours break or you get stood up by the weedman, you’ll know why.

Let’s take a look at the Seven Deadly Stoner Sins so that you can avoid them in the future.

The Sin of Scavenging

“The Scavenger Sin” usually applies to rookie stoners who don’t know where to buy their own baggies. It’s a tolerable sin that is kind of “cute” in the beginning of every stoner’s journey, however just like it’s not pretty to see a grown man in diapers, neither is it okay to keep on Scavenging past a certain point.

You’re allowed to scavenge up to three times when you start out, however when you realize that this is something you’ll “do” repeatedly, find out where you can buy your own.

The Sin of Bogarting

While this sin might happen unintentionally, bogarting is a more serious sin than scavenging. Bogarting occurs when you hold onto a pipe or a joint for too long while sitting in a smoke circle. You’re essentially “stealing tokes” from your fellow stoners which is highly frowned upon within the stoner society.

The Sin of Over-Indulgence

Some might argue that “you cannot over-indulge on cannabis”. In some light they are correct, however what I refer to in relation to “over-indulgence” is toking up when you really don’t need to toke up. This happens mostly when you’ve been smoking up all day, and at the end of the day you stop feeling the effects of the herb. In other words, “you’re not getting higher no matter how much you smoke”. Taking a toke when you’ve reach this point is just a waste of your stash and it’s a sin that hurts you in the long run, because you traded a toke that could have gotten you high in the morning for momentary gratification that will be short outlived.

The Sin of Sloth

Both an original “Seven Deadly Sins” and part of the Stoner edition, sloth is something that we all can fall victim to. It goes as follows, “You have a lot to do in the day but decide to take a massive morning bong rip. Eventually your long list of ‘To do’s’ become an endless marathon of random videos on Youtube and trolling Facebook commentaries.”

The Sin of Swine

We all get the munchies, however sometimes the Munchies can lead to questionable decisions. Scouring the fridge or every corner of the pantry for something to stuff your face with, you come across a questionable item you probably should not eat. “Expired in 1987….well, it’s in a can so it should be okay” you utter to yourself with eyes tinted red. “Why have one piece of cake when I can have seven” another thought pops into your head. It’s okay to have munchies, but try to keep it moderate and don’t eat things that are growing other things…that might land you in the hospital.

The Sin of Paranoia

People get together to smoke weed and relax. If you’re constantly paranoid about getting busted or who ate your snacks (when we all know that you ate your own damn snacks!), you are bringing down the entire experience. This is usually a rookie stoner sin, but I have come across some seasoned stoners who fall prey to this demon as well.

The Sin of Swanking

Finally, we reach the Sin of Swanking. We have all been guilty of this to some degree however some “swanks” are more deadly than others. “Lighter Trolls” are people who unwittingly pockets lighters.

While this is an annoyance, it’s not the end of the world as most of us are guilty of this sin at one point or another. However, when you swank a bud or a pipe or something of the sorts…you’re going to stoner hell for sure! If someone doesn’t offer you a bud, it’s not yours to take!
