Berner Shows Us How To Roll The Best Joint Ever

berner Berner Shows Us How To Roll The Best Joint Ever

Rolling a joint is a process of love, but in some places, it can be a love that has to be kept hidden. You can roll one in almost any shape under the sun, but it takes a little extra forethought to roll one that you can enjoy completely without paranoia later. Famous rap artist and entrepreneur Berner shows us how to do it right.

Stealth

If you are crossing less-than-friendly territory with your herb, nothing kills a buzz quicker than berries and cherries flashing behind you. If you know how to avoid probable cause, however, you can face scrutiny with your head held high. Berner does just that by double-bag, vacuum sealing his stash every time. No smell means no worries.

Berner shows off his company’s USB-powered rechargeable vacuum sealer that only takes seconds to eliminate any trace of that distinct smell. Throw on a little spray for yourself, and you are good to go.

One of the most important things about getting high is enjoying your high, and if he ain’t got no probable cause, it’s gonna be a really nice ride.

Rolling quality

Properly ground herb is essential, as is knowing what your smoking environment will be, says Berner. High winds require a different joint than an indoor smoke. Blunts don’t need as fine a grind. He mixes up some Lemon Sour-Diesel and shows us how to roll a filtered cone like a pro.

To wet your whistle afterwards, he goes with his own line of Hemp2o herbal beverages. Grinding is easy with a Santa Cruz Shredder.

Berner

Gilbert Milam Jr., a.k.a. Berner to his legion of fans acts as a prime example of a grassroots success. He started off at local SF rap battles in 2007 and eventually created his own label. He has released 10 independent albums, several of which have charted on Billboard’s “Top Rap Albums”.

Taking his success even further, he teamed up with Wiz Khalifa on the Taylor Gang, and notoriously introduced Wiz to his personally developed strain, Cookies, which he helped promote into a worldwide favorite. Did I mention he started off working as a grower?

He started his own clothing line, “Cookies”, and turned it into a brand that he says brought in $12 million in 2015. Branching out into beverages, smoking accessories, and other merchandise, he has made a name for himself as a force to be reckoned with in a short period of time.

Everything he touches has a weed-centered theme, though he has managed to stay away from direct involvement with the plant, leaving his businesses open to banking access, big-league investment, and worldwide distribution. That is one tough cookie.

Do you zip your stash? Do you vacuum seal? Have you passed through the ordeal of being stopped and walked away scot-free? Tell us on social media or in the comments below.

There are some movies that were practically made for you to watch while in that special place. You feel the rush of the energy, the thrill of the colors, the roar of the sound. Special effects that blow your mind and rock your world, it’s what makes cinema great. If you are anything like me, you are aching for the Suicide Squad to come out in August. (I love you, Harley.)

Sucker for Pain

With a soundtrack loaded with even more big names than the movie, this is going to be a treat. There is nothing more standard than the epic movie soundtrack music video, and this video does not disappoint.

With Lil Wayne, Wiz Khalifa, Imagine Dragons, Logic, & Ty Dolla $ign, it is as much an ensemble cast of powerful misfits as has ever been put together. Even sicker, they mix together like gasoline and fire, for a volatile concoction of haunting beauty. Echoing the raw and fatalistic mentality of the story behind the film, this cadre of characters pulls no punches.

Fantastic soundtrack

One of only two original songs on the entire soundtrack to release prior to the movie, this gives me chills to hear what else is in store from the likes of Grimes, Skrillex, and other artists who also feature.

This film promises to deliver the adrenaline, tension, and overtures of BDSM that we are craving. So get your popcorn and drinks ready,  & spark that bowl to feel heady, because this will be an event. Suicide Squad comes out August 5.

Are you going to blaze and hit the cinema come August? Who is your favorite Squad member? Tell us on social media or in the comments below.

5 Greatest Things Ever Accomplished While High. Ever.

Snoop & Martha Stewart Are The Perfect Weed Quiz Team

Snoop Martha hero Snoop & Martha Stewart Are The Perfect Weed Quiz Team

The new dynamic duo of daytime television, or at least in our eyes, Snoop and Martha Stewart nail the challenge in an exhibition round of ABC’s revival of the $100,000 pyramid. From her favorite subject to his, Snoop knows his stuff. 

$100,000 pyramid

Sure, a hundred grand doesn’t buy quite as much as it used to, but no one would turn down the chance to will some life-changing money on a show that once dominated television.

The premise is simple: Two teams of celebrities and everyday contestants get paired. They receive clues for word association games based on a themed topic. Then, the victors face off for a chance to win the pot! No, I’m talking about the money.

Snoop and Martha

To get newer audiences acquainted with how the game is played, ABC enlisted the help of television’s newest winning pair, Snoop & Martha Stewart. These 2 practice rounds feature words centered on the themes of home decor and marijuana.

Round 1: Marijuana

Of course, Snoop is going to know every term in the book. He wrote a few of them in there himself. From “roach” to “fattie,” he knocks them out of the park. The best clue? You roll it like sushi… A joint! 7 out of 7.

Round 2: Home decor

Now this is Martha’s specialty, not Snoop’s. Nevertheless, he nails every one. You might say that being one of the most successful rap artists in history gives you a taste for the finer things in life. In any case, Snoop impressively scores another perfect round.

Watch, laugh, & get ready

If you think the laughs are going to stop there, just wait until the show comes out. I have a feeling that these two might be showing up from time to time to spice things up a little.

Weed round:

Home decor round:

Did you watch the original show growing up? Do you remember it before it was even $100k? Who would you rather have on your team, Martha or Snoop? Share with us on social media or in the comments below.

How To Get Maximum Kief From Your Grinder

massive amounts of Kief hero How To Get Maximum Kief From Your Grinder

From the last bit of peanut butter to the dregs of laundry soap, getting a container empty is a pain. If you grind your own herb, you have surely had this dilemma. The delicious kief that you collect doesn’t want to fall out. It lodges between the teeth of your grinder, sticks to the walls, and generally makes it a pain in the butt to get every last bit out. You don’t want to just wash it, that defeats the purpose of saving it in the first place. So how do you do it? Simple, with this little secret from LeaferBag.

Step 1. Coin

Empty what already can be emptied. Find a coin that will fit easily inside the middle chamber, where your ground weed ends up. Depending on your grinder size, this could be anywhere from a dime to a silver dollar. Make sure it has room to move around.

Step 2. Chill

Reassemble your grinder and put it in the refrigerator. You don’t want a lot of moisture, but you want it pretty cold.

Step 3. Wait

Wait 20 to thirty minutes, depending on the size of your grinder and how cold your refrigerator is.

Step 4. Shake

Shake the bejeezus out of the grinder. Pretend you have maracas and there’s a party.

Step 5. Claim your prize

The cold will reduce the sticky factor on your herb, and loosen it from the metal grinder. The coin acts as a jackhammer, vibrating the kief off the walls with each impact. Open your grinder, remove the coin, and then see how much more kief you have in your collection chamber.

Did you get enough to smoke a bowl? Powder a joint? Show us pictures of how much kief you have saved up on social media or in the comments below.

9 Tricks To Smash A Massive Bong Rip (Without Coughing Your Lungs Up)

Here’s What Happens When You Smash 1 Gram In 1 Minute

1g1min Heres What Happens When You Smash 1 Gram In 1 Minute

Every cannabis enthusiast loves a good smoking challenge. Josh from StrainCentral shows us how to do the “1 Gram in 1 Minute” challenge. The challenge involves smoking an entire gram in exactly one minute or less. It sounds pretty intense, but the key to beating the challenge is choosing the right toking device. Be sure to check out the video below to learn how to crush it like a champ. 

Gear up for the 1 gram challenge

When taking on this crazy challenge, you may be tempted to roll up a joint. While it may be possible to smoke a gram rolled up into a joint in one minute, it could also disappoint you. Josh takes a different route by grabbing the two biggest bowls and two biggest bongs that he owns. He’s about to make this challenge seem like a piece of cake.

Josh measures out the gram of bud to prove that he’s not playing around. The green weighs in at slightly over a gram, but that doesn’t stop him. He dives right in by packing his two ginormous bowls and taking some deep breaths. If you need to do breathing exercises before a smoke session, you know it’s going to be epic.

With no stopwatch or any other way to tell time, he begins the challenge. In just a few seconds, he has already killed the first bowl from bong #1. With no breaks, except to exhale, he moves on to bong #2. Yet again, he kills it and not even a speck is left in the bowl. Be sure to check out the video below to see how long it took Josh to smoke one gram.

So what happened? No spoilers here. Be sure to check out the video below to see how long it took Josh to smoke one gram.

Could you smoke faster than Josh? Let us know on social media or in the comments below. We’d love to hear from you.

How To Roll A Mind-Blowing Pure Kief Joint

purekiefjoint How To Roll A Mind Blowing Pure Kief Joint

Kief, the best part of your herb, all in one place. I’m sure you have ogled over joints coated in kief, but do you know what is even more amazing? A joint made completely out of the stuff. Watch and learn how to make your own amazing kief joint in this video from Explicit.

Step 1: The hardest part

Before you even get started, you will need to amass a decent load of kief. If you don’t have access to loads of bud, then this might be an arduous process of letting it accumulate in your grinder.

Step 2: Getting ready

Once you have about a gram of good kief, the fun can begin. You will need wax paper, a flat iron, a dull knife, and some finely ground herb to top off your creation. Turn on your flat iron to the lowest setting. Get your wax paper and fold it in half, then open it. Put your kief in a pile and use the knife to spread it into a solid, uniform layer.

Step 3: Creating the magic

Like the Rosin extraction technique, you press the flat iron on the kief, heating it. The goal is to make it stick together into a “tortilla” of kief. You will be able to tell which parts have heated by the color change through the wax paper.

Step 4: Roll it up

Once your kief is melted into a solid layer, you will peel the paper away, and gently roll it into a joint. Don’t add anything inside yet. Even small stem pieces can puncture the kief layer at this soft stage.

Step 5: Load up your kief joint

Pinch one end closed and begin to gently load your finely ground herb into the other end. You don’t want to pack tightly, it might compromise airflow. Be careful on handling the joint as it will still be somewhat fragile. Open the closed end with a little pressure, and there you have it! When smoking, don’t ash or press, as you will lose the cherry, and waste kief.

How much kief have you managed to save up in your grinder? What is your favorite way to use it? Have you tried making a kief joint? Share with us on social media or in the comments below.

Kanye West Unveiles New Video “Famous” And We Can’t Stop Staring

kw famous Kanye West Unveiles New Video Famous And We Cant Stop Staring

Unless you live in a social-media dead zone, chances are you’ve already heard about the colossal news story coming from Kanye West. After debuting the video for his controversial song “Famous” late last week, fans and fellow musicians were left scratching their heads, wondering what on Earth the genius Yeezy could have been thinking while producing this video.

Well, he made that chick famous

After releasing the track “Famous” last February, off his album “Life of Pablo,” Kanye West left fans and critics in shock, scratching their heads trying to figure out just exactly what Mr. West was implying with the seemingly distasteful lyrics. Truthfully, the message couldn’t be clearer.

I feel like me and Taylor might still have sex. Why? I made that bitch famous (God damn.) I made that bitch famous.

While it might seem like Kanye credits himself with boosting Taylor Swift to stardom, after interrupting her at the 2009 MTV Awards to let the world know Beyoncé was Queen, West is more than likely just playing up to public opinion; another brilliant scheme to maximizing record sales.

If you see ‘em in the street, give ‘em Kanye’s best

With controversial lyrics, comes a controversial video, and Kanye West did not disappoint. The lengthy video features an array of naked celebrities, including George W. Bush, Anna Wintour, Donald Trump, Rihanna, Chris Brown, Taylor Swift, Kanye West, Kim Kardashian West, Ray J, Amber Rose, Caitlyn Jenner and Bill Cosby.

While the boobies and booties certainly look real, they are actually wax figures constructed to resemble their famous counterparts. While Taylor Swift has already displayed outrage over being featured in the musical “masterpiece”, it’s unclear whether or not other celebrities approved of their likeness being used in the video.

One thing is for sure, Kanye West wants his fans to know “Famous” is not showing support for cases like Bill Cosby or Donald Trump, rather he was referencing a larger notion of what makes someone popular and famous.

It’s not in support or anti any of anyone in the video. It’s a comment on fame.

You can watch the video via TIDAL here.

These 8 Indicas Will Couch-Lock You During Shark Week

This Guy Thinks His Vape Skills Are Good Enough For America’s Got Talent

AGT vaper This Guy Thinks His Vape Skills Are Good Enough For Americas Got Talent

We’ve all got a friend who vapes one of those walkie-talkie looking devices. They shamelessly exhale mushroom cloud-sized , fruit smelling vapors for all of us to enjoy. At least that’s what they think. Instead, I think these vape dudes are comical. Hell, you might be one of them – my bad.

Vaping—an art form

Jake Clark, the star of the America’s Got Talent “audition” video below, is trying to make his vape bombs America’s next favorite pastime. Hopefully, Clark is just poking fun at the same things I am, but if he is serious, and he wins, we are all in deep deep trouble.

Jake Clark is a “vape dude” through and through. In his America’s Got Talent video Clark says,

I’ve been vaping since I was about nine years old. I think vaping is the best way that I express myself.

The best way you express yourself? C’mon bro look at your outfit and shades. You are nothing short of a modern day Blues Brother. Expression is not Clark’s issue.

Remember, he’s vaping nicotine

Unlike the stereotypical stoners who skip class because of smoking (or vaping) some herb, Clark believes he would choose his nicotine vape over “normal” interests.

You know I wasted a lot of my time in my younger years with sports and school and other things that weren’t important to me.

Again – c’mon bro. You’re telling me that school and athletics were a waste of your time and that vaping is a total better use of said time? I sincerely hope Clark wins America’s Got Talent, because if he is serious about this, he might not have many other options.

Calm down

Jake Clark should probably take a few real vapes and think very critically about the path he is on. From what I can tell, people who use vapes are more concerned about health and their hobbies than this fella. Have a look for yourself below.

I hope America recognizes vaping for what it truly is—an art form. – Jake Clark

Do you have talent? Is it vape talent? Could you beat Jake in a “vape-off”? Let us know on social media or in the comments below.

Spliffigami: How To Roll This Amazing Wasp Joint

wasp joint Spliffigami: How To Roll This Amazing Wasp Joint

This is one joint that is sure to cause a buzz. This time, we are going to tell you how to create this amazing piece, the Wasp Joint. The video from WeedTV didn’t show a time lapse, so I had to experiment myself to discover the secrets and I am sharing them with you.

Step 1: Tulips

The head and abdomen sections of this creature consist of thick tulip joints, minus the long filter. Roll two tulip bulbs of about equal size by taking two big Raw rolling papers, and gluing together parallel. Then, fold diagonally and glue the square into a cone shape. Pack it full, twist loosely closed and set aside. Repeat.

Step 2: Main wasp joint body

To connect the head and abdomen, the thorax, or middle of the body, will be made from one thick joint. Depending on how thick your tulips are, you might need 2 papers glued parallel to roll the fattest joint you can.

Tip: Take the papers and seal to the diameter a little smaller than the thickest area of your tulip joints. Slide a carrot or other thick cylinder shape into the tube and twist one side closed around it. Remove the spacer and fill the joint from the other end. Pack tightly, leaving the other end open.

Step 3: Attaching

To connect the body parts together, you will need to open the tulips a bit, and insert the ends of the fat joint into one. Cut several glue strips off of some papers. Twist the end of the tulip closed over the joint and use the glue strips to seal it on. Repeat for the other tulip with more glue strips.

Step 4: Wings

The wings are simply two long, thin joints. Once rolled, you pierce a hole on either side of the “shoulder area,” and insert them into the base of the head. Seal them to the body with glue strips, and fashion the wings with two papers cut into an arc on the unglued side. Glue these along the joints, and the wings are complete.

Step 5: Antenna and markings

Grab some darker rolling papers, like the Rizzla Licorice papers used in this video. Twist one paper into a tight tube with no weed, and cut in half. These two pieces are the antenna. Take a few other dark papers and cut out the body pattern pieces similar to the wasp shown here, or a picture you have handy. Attach the markings with small dabs of honey.

To attach the antenna, you can use glue strips from the dark papers to wrap the head with a stripe. Shaping the head and abdomen a bit finishes the task, and there you have it!

Did you get a sweet buzz from the wasp joint? Tell us on social media or in the comments below.

Will The High Guys Get Hypnotized?

hypnotised Will The High Guys Get Hypnotized?

Buzzfeed’s High Guys are back at it again, and they’re taking on an entirely different kind of challenge. In this week’s video, the gang is getting hypnotized while high, and the comedy is better than ever. While the mind control might not have worked on all of the strong-willed High Guys, the two who were affected prove no amount of THC can halt hypnosis.

Going under

As the High Guys prepare to be hypnotized, they remain skeptical of the entire idea, questioning how you get good at hypnosis and how it even works. Emma Kennedy points out that her own father hypnotizes himself before going to the dentist to help conquer his fear, so she knows the process is real and can work.

Other members are more concerned about what the hypnotist will have them do.

I wish he could hypnotize me to smoke more weed. ‘You are getting higher, you are getting higher.’ – Brandon Brickz

Mike Glazer gives an in-depth explanation as to why he’s interested in being hypnotized and how he thinks the process is both scary and extremely interesting.

You’re just opening your mind and saying ‘here, you’re in control of this.’ Why would you want to do that? But, the fact that it can be done kind of makes me want to do it. –  Mike Glazer

Two guys, no girl

Emma proved too strong for the mind control tricks. She stood and watched with amusement, as her fellow High Guys fell into a deep dream-like state.

Throughout the hypnosis experience, Mike and Brandon participate in a series of hilarious activities, including believing they’re naked, hugging each other and auditioning for the Philharmonic. The boys play their hearts out on air instruments, hoping to earn the $57 million Philharmonic position.

It was like my brain was on auto-pilot and I let Tom Cruise take over. – Brandon Brickz

Fans get a treat with this 360° immersive VR video collaboration between Elastic (the shows title sequence designers), HBO, Facebook, and Oculus.

Spliffigami: How To Make An Airplane Joint

airplane Spliffigami: How To Make An Airplane Joint

If you want to fly really high, sometimes a regular old joint simply doesn’t give you the altitude. To soar like never before, you need a joint that will literally give you wings. Why not roll a cross joint airplane? In this Spliffigami, we will show exactly how to make your own airplane joint.

Step 1: Roll your joints

In order to make a cross-joint airplane, you will need a body and two wing struts. You can do this by rolling a variation of the regular cross joint, but for the big body, you need to roll a fattie, and it never hurts to put a nice filter in it.

In order to have full-size wings, you will use 2 joints, one on either side, instead of one joint pulled through the middle. Don’t put filters in your wing struts, as these will be completely smoked.

Step 2: Drill the body

Take a sharp pair of scissors or knife and pierce the body, about a quarter of the length of the joint from the end you will light. Core out these with the tip of your scissors so the joints have room to go into the body far enough to have support.

Step 3: Assemble your airplane joint

Put your wing strut joints into the main body. As you do, ensure that their bases will have good airflow. Jamming them in too tight will close them off.

To secure them, cut glue strips off several Raw Rolling Papers and use them to make sling supports, tying the wing struts to the body, and seal them on for good airflow with no leaks. You can put pressure on the wings by twisting the tip to push the weed deeper into the main joint.

Step 4: Fashion the wings

Take 2 rolling papers, and measure them along the wing strut joints. Cut to length, and then fashion the wing shape symmetrically by laying the papers back to back before cutting. Just attach them to the wing struts by licking and sticking.

Step 5: The tail

Take the excess paper you cut off the wings, and fashion into a tail for the plane. To do this, cut so it is about twice as wide as the tail, then trim the edges on either side of the glue edge at angles, making a trapezoid. Fold the paper in half, with the perpendicular to the glue, and crease.

Open slightly, and seal to the tail of the plane. Shape it up a little, and now your airplane joint  is complete!

One has to wonder how these officers received their badge in the first place. Here are the 10 dumbest cops ever.

1. The cop that thought he and his wife overdosed on cannabis brownies

This story is a classic and is number one on my list because everyone has heard about the cop who thought he and his wife were dead. Obviously, the officer and his wife ate one brownie too many, considering they were convinced they were dead even while speaking on the phone.

2. That awkward moment when you shoot yourself while teaching kids about gun safety

I bet the kids that were there to witness the embarrassment will never forget the day as long as they live. This DEA cop decided to teach children about gun safety and ended up shooting himself in the foot. When he attempted to show the class another gun, they told him to put it down. I think the kids knew more about gun safety than him.

3. The cop that got taken down by a gate

A SWAT team member got a little too close to the gate that they were trying to pull away and found out the hard way.

4. You’re going the wrong way officers!

These officers ran right past the bank robbers they were after and never even saw them. Great job officers, great job.

5. The officer that broke into the wrong house

Bless this officer’s heart, he was just trying to rescue the woman from her burning house. There’s just one thing missing, actual fire.

6. Um, officer, that’s not a gun!

This cop made a big mistake when he thought this guy had a gun on him. It may shoot, but you won’t find it loaded with bullets. Someone send this officer to an anatomy class.

7. Lady cop almost shoots her partner

This officer not only pointed her gun near her partner, she also almost shot her. This was definitely a face-palm moment.

8. The car that escaped from the cop

When this cop pulled over to make a routine traffic stop but forgot to put his handbrake on, causing his car to crash. I bet he won’t forget to do that again.

9. Ouch, the cop that fell off his bike

Ready, set, fail! Either the wiring was a bit off, or this cop just cannot drive. At least it wasn’t as dramatic as it could have been.

10. The police that ran into a flood

Normally when you see large amounts of water, you choose to avoid it. Not these UK cops, they decided to dive right in, literally.

High People Eat Australian Snacks & It’s Hilarious

stoned americans eat australian snacks High People Eat Australian Snacks & Its Hilarious

When the munchies strike, they can do so with a vengeance. No cupboard is safe, and no food exempt from its search for sustenance. But what happens when the taste buds of one culture collide with the snacks of another? A grab bag of experimentation and hilarity ensues. Check out this hilarious video from BuzzFeedVideo below.

The Famished Inquisition

BuzzFeed gathers a group of American cannabis lovers and gives them a selection of the most popular snacks from Australia. The first step in the process, of course, is to gauge their level of high.

On a level of 1 to 10, I’d say I’m probably like an eight.

Probably like a nine.

What’s the question?

Objective achieved. Now for the snacks.

The goodies

First up is Vegemite on toast, and it does not go well with the group.

I’ve never heard anyone speak positively about this food.

I can’t! I can’t! Oh my god, what is it?

I imagine that you eventually stop making this facial expression while eating it?

Next comes Eucalyptus Drops, and they change the game.

This is like a spa for my mouth.

This is the best thing I’ve ever put in my mouth!

The snacks gets real

When Tim Tams come out, there is no question. They are amazing.

This is like a brand new culinary experience for me.

Can I have another one?

These are like the Girl Scout cookies of Australia.

But the fun and food don’t stop there. However, if you want to know what else is on the munchies menu for these hungry herb lovers, you are going to have to watch the video. No spoilers here.

Sympathy for fellow weed smokers

It is hard to imagine for those lucky enough to live in a legal state, but the rest of the world hasn’t quite caught up yet. Despite the fantastic stoner cuisine and overwhelming love of the herb, recreational use is still illegal down under.

You guys can’t get stoned? It’s illegal? You guys are a country that started from criminals!

It would only make sense, right? Maybe that rebel attitude just needs a power snack to get the job done.

Do foreign culture snacks hit your palette in a strange way? Do you think Australia will legalize recreational use? Tell us what you think on social media or in the comments below.

Spliffigami: How To Roll A Cone Joint Better Than Your Friends

perfect Spliffigami: How To Roll A Cone Joint Better Than Your Friends

If you love joints, you know that there is a big difference in experience and satisfaction between a paltry roll and an excellent one. Being the best joint roller in a circle of friends is probably one of the highest herbal honors that can be bestowed. Since every skill needs a little fine tuning, here is a great video by vcriddler that shows you how to harness your cone joint skills.

Step 1: Strong foundations

First of all, the perfect shaped cone joint starts off with the perfect filter. Roll your paper filter and give it a twist. As much as the weed gives shape to the joint, the filter does, too. Consequently, you want an angled filter to help you roll the perfect cone.

Step 2: Fill it up

Get your weed in there and start to roll it up. Don’t worry about packing it full, you will top it off at the end. Although you don’t want too little, you also don’t want to put so much in during the roll that it deforms the shape into a blob.

Step 3: Tuck and roll

Next, you want to tuck the rolling paper on the filter side first. Then you can start to roll the rest of the joint up at a gradual angle.

Step 4: Adjust and adhere

Go back and forth until the paper makes a smooth cone, then lick it and stick it. While sealing it up, you want to keep the paper from folding a crease in the joint.

Step 5: Pack it and close your cone joint

Finally, you will pack the cone with more herb until there is just enough paper to twist the top shut. Another option is to add tobacco (if that is your thing). If you leave too much paper at the tip, you can snip or burn off the excess. The cone will have a small tip of paper hanging below the filter, so snip or burn this off to even the end out. Now you have the “best-looking cones” in class!

Did this quick video help you roll a better, smoother cone joint? What joint rolling tips do you have? Share with us on social media or in the comments below.

You Need To See The Trailer For Epic Tupac Movie “All Eyez On Me”

2pac You Need To See The Trailer For Epic Tupac Movie All Eyez On Me

There are some musical artists who have touched lives, while some have changed the world. In the world of rap, one of the most influential artists of all time was, and continues to be, Tupac Shakur. More than a rap artist, he was a poet, actor, and social activist. His death was one that tore open the hearts of a world of fans. The Tupac movie, All Eyez on Me, named after his last and greatest selling album, is scheduled to be released on November 11, 2016. The film trailer is out now, and you can watch it below!

His achievements

About.com and BET both named Shakur as the most influential rapper of all time. Pulitzer Prize-winning reporter Chuck Philips also once wrote:

The slaying [of Tupac Shakur] silenced one of modern music’s most eloquent voices. A ghetto poet whose tales of urban alienation captivated young people of all races and backgrounds. The 25-year-old Shakur had helped elevate rap from a crude street fad to a complex art form, setting the stage for the current global hip-hop phenomenon.

Tupac was both an everyman and an intellectual. He spoke of complex emotions and political injustices.

His album All Eyez on Me is one of the greatest selling rap albums of all time, certified 10X Platinum in 2014. Due to his widespread influence, his music has been honored by the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, the Library of Congress’s National Recording Registry, and even the Catholic Church.

His memory

Because of his universal appeal, murals of Tupac across the world, in New York, Brazil, Sierra Leone, and even Bulgaria. There are even statues of him residing in Atlanta and Germany. His music continues to inspire, and as a result, Forbes named him #10 on their “Top-Earning Dead Celebrities”.

Because of his love of the arts, charity foundations in his name continue to help children with Centers for the Arts, performing arts camps, essay contests, and even charity events.

He has become a modern-day legend. Broadway plays have been written based off his lyrics. A hologram of his likeness has performed his music with modern artists at Coachella. There is an exhibit on Tupac at the Grammy Museum.

To honor his passing, his fellow artists mixed the lifelong cannabis lover‘s cremated ashes with marijuana and smoked them!

The new Tupac movie

Now, you can absorb the fantastic rise and tragic fall of this modern icon with a new movie, taking the next step where the documentaries like Academy-Award-nominated Tupac: Ressurection left off chronicling the roller coaster of events and achievements of the artist’s short life.

All Eyez on Me, named after his last and greatest selling album, is scheduled to be released on November 11, 2016. The film trailer is out now, and you can watch it below!

facepalm Shocking Video Show Toddler Smoking A Joint (Warning: You Will Get Mad)

Every day, cannabis activists try to put the positive perspective on pot. But there are always one or two idiots that can make an entire group look bad. Westboro church did it for Christians. Terrorists did it for Islam. There will always be that one corrupt politician, that one bad cop and that one horrible parent who smokes pot. If you have seen this, you know the damage these stupid-ass people have done for the entire cause.

Contributing to baby bad habits

It is one level of irresponsibility to give teenagers alcohol, or buy cigarettes for your underage friend. At least teens should know better. But in an online video posted by an as yet unnamed tool, an adult gives a toddler a blunt and encourages him to smoke it. A toddler!

I can even go so far as to play devil’s advocate and say that maybe, maybe the child is a cannabis patient and needed his medicine, but there is no way a parent who cared enough to seek treatment for their child would film this, let alone laugh about it. Besides that, we do not treat children with smoked cannabis! There are

Besides that, we do not treat children with smoked cannabis! There are oils, or even edibles, that are the only methods allowed for children, let alone this young. I wonder if the child even belonged to this person, or were they watching the kid for someone else?

Baby see, baby do

Small children look up to us as idols. They mimic everything they see us do. They try to wear our oversized shoes. They repeat everything we say, whether we wanted them to learn that word or not. But actually encouraging, let alone filming and sharing a child doing something like drinking alcohol or smoking, is absolutely atrocious.

I know there are some parents out there who have used a bad experience to discourage a child from a bad action. Having a child take a sip of beer to see how nasty it is, or that first puff of a cigarette to make them choke their lungs out and swear them off forever. That works on young adults, but not on babies.

Police searching for suspect

This sad excuse for a parent or caregiver is being actively hunted down. The video was discovered on Facebook by a Chicago community activist named Andrew Holmes, who promptly turned it over to police.

Sad to say, but this isn’t the first time something like this has happened. In 2013 a video of a 22-month-old old in Centralia being helped to hit a bong led to him being removed from his mother’s care. Last year, another uproar happened when Vine user Chief Smokes uploaded a video of a child smoking what appeared to be weed as well.

Do idiots like this make it harder to be an outspoken cannabis activist? Share your outrage on social media or in the comments below.

Nick Jonas, Cannabis Lollipops & His Awkward N.A.R.B.

nick jonas Nick Jonas, Cannabis Lollipops & His Awkward N.A.R.B.

While presenting at the Young Hollywood Awards, Nick Jonas experienced every man’s worst nightmare, when he became aroused for no apparent reason, on stage, in front of millions of people. Few things could ever be worse or more embarrassing, but wait until he explains his reasoning behind why he thinks Little Nicky popped up to say “Hi.”

Leave it to Fallon

Nick Jonas appeared on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon last week, ready to deliver some exclusive stories the public was unaware of. The embarrassment is written all over his face as he sighs and begins to tell a tale he knows is better left unsaid.

After being offered a cannabis lollipop by a friend, Nick accepted the sweet, saying this is something he never does, but decided to on this particular evening.

I enjoyed the night, felt great, went to bed feeling fine. Woke up the next day – woosh, woosh, woosh, everything’s in slow motion.

Believing his high had finally kicked in, as an inexperienced cannabis user, Jonas began to get a little panicked. Not only was he incredibly high, he had to present at the Young Hollywood Awards later that evening. We’ve all had that feeling, after thinking our edibles were not performing properly and indulging in more, only to be smacked in the face with a mind-numbing high hours later.

Here’s where Jonas loses our support.

I go back to bed, wake up a couple hours later, get in the shower – goosh ‘Your life is over, you’re gonna die.’ I’m hearing voices.

The N.A.R.B.

After calming down enough to dress and prepare himself for the awards, Jonas believed the worst of his high was over. Unfortunately for him, he was wrong.

I get in the car. I’m trying to focus, get in the right mind frame. I’m feeling better, and then out of nowhere, I get a N.A.R.B.

What is a N.A.R.B.? A no-apparent-reason boner, something Jonas believes all men experience from time to time. The trouble didn’t stop there. As Jonas continues his trip through “lolliland,” as Fallon called it, he stumbles over words while presenting and has a fear-stricken look on his face the entire time.

Jonas believes the high he got from the infused lollipop is the reasons he suffered such embarrassment. Truthfully, if he had never told this story, none of us would have ever known.

Mike Edison’s Epic Story Of David Bowie & Mystery Dust

bowie Mike Edisons Epic Story Of David Bowie & Mystery Dust

Famed author, musician and raconteur Mike Edison reads from his new book You Are a Complete Disappointment in a new video, featuring ex-Sonic Youth drummer Bob Bert on bongos and Mickey Finn (Boss Hog) on piano.

David Bowie, hot pants & mystery dust

Bowie fans will recognize the music as a “beatnik version of ‘Heroes’ mashed up with a slippery secondary riff, made more famous by a certain Seattle grunge band.”

The performance was recorded this month on Edison’s “Completely Awesome Book Tour,” at East Village locale 2A on their Sunday night music series, The Treehouse.

The story may seem to be just about a great night at a Bowie concert in 1978, but at the end Edison comes back to the book’s theme – he is living in the moment, whereas his father had always too worried too much to let go and enjoy himself, and berated his son for “having more fun than I do.”

In the end, he quotes legendary comedian Bill Hicks – “If you are living for the future, you will always be one day behind.”

You Are a Complete Disappointment (Sterling) is the hilarious yet deeply heartbreaking memoir of a dysfunctional father-son relationship. Edison takes us on a warped suburban odyssey that pulls no punches when it comes to the adversity and adventures of growing up in the 1970s and ‘80s, “the tail end of an age of bewildered enlightenment” – sibling rivalries, Ronald Reagan, the Rolling Stones, abysmal family dinners, sex, drugs, terrified parents, and Jewish guilt are just the beginning of an adolescence forged in equal parts of boundless self-exploration and needless doubt.

Read an excerpt here: http://ift.tt/1qvNOc5

Edison is famous for turning book readings into happenings, and raising the bar for authors to make their readings “more than obligations to bore people in bookstores because that is what is expected.” In the past, he has been joined by a rogue’s gallery of musicians to help him bring his books to life, including long-time collaborator Jon Spencer of the Jon Spencer Blues Explosion, Gary Lucas (Jeff Buckey, Capt. Beefheart), and Howie Pyro (D-Generation, Danzig), among others.

I bring my guys into bookstores, and the booksellers are easily confused. They say, ‘You are going to do reading and music? Which are you going to do first?’ And then when they see it, they have their chocolate in the peanut butter moment, and really get it. They are used to authors reading from podiums and putting people to sleep, that’s the norm. But that’s not how I roll. I don’t do boring. – Edison

Have you ever seen Mike in action? Share your memories on social media or in the comments below.

Praise for Mike Edison:

“Smart, filthy, and funny, Mike Edison is no ordinary author… Edison brings the stories from his book to life with the performance chops of a seasoned rock’n’roller.” – Spin Magazine

“Mike Edison could read from a tractor manual and I would be interested.” — Supermodel Paulina Poriskova in HuffingtonPost

The High Guys: Cake Decorating Challenge

highguys cakechallenge The High Guys: Cake Decorating Challenge

Buzzfeed’s web series, “The High Guys,” follows a group of four cannabis enthusiasts, as they take on different challenges after indulging in everyone’s favorite herb. In this new video, the group visits Cake and Art in Los Angeles, to try their hands at the tumultuous task of cake decorating.

High standards

As the group piles into the kitchen, preparing to decorate their pre-iced cakes, we’re informed this isn’t just any old cake challenge – these works of art will actually be part of someone’s wedding. The bride, Ritza Calixte, doesn’t want the standard three-tier cake at her celebration. No, she strives for something more unique, positive the High Guys will deliver spectacular results.

The High Guys display an epic reaction to the news, as they’re told in just one hour the finished products will be judged by a panel, which includes the bride. Some of them begin to shout and question why anyone would trust their wedding cake in the hands of this group.

Oh, good, the rest of somebodys’ lives are in my hands…Have you ever seen what stoned people make for food? They make: “oh, this is what I have.’”  Michael Glazer

Decorating skills

After the group discuss Ritza’s vision for her cake, which should include colors like coral and mint, with slight throws to the NBA for her soon-to-be hubby, members set out to bring her wishes to life.

At first I head underwater basketball, but then Beta Fish came through loud and clear. If you choose a Beta Fish for your wedding cake, you obviously love your space, so they’re going to each have their own cake. – Emma Kennedy

While discussing ideas, Ritza makes it known that both her fiancés’ and her own culture’s play an important role in their lives and also in their ceremony.

My stoned mind imagined this beautiful cake that was this combination of Haitian culture and everything we love about Boston exploding in a metaphor – I also realized I don’t know how to make any of that. – Chris Reinacher

As the clock dwindles down, The High Guys begin to scramble to perfect their masterpiece cakes. Emma is hilarious, and clearly in a thick daze, as she makes a snap decision to redo her entire cake with just moments to spare, positive that this confection isn’t fit for any kind of celebration.

In the end, Chris dominates the competition, thoughtfully combining aspects of the couple’s individual lives to represent their pending union.

Boy had talent and I got to give it up. They liked his, uh, whatever it was. – Brandon Brickz

How The Horrific Actions Of One Cop Left This Kid Brain Damaged

bryce How The Horrific Actions Of One Cop Left This Kid Brain Damaged

If you haven’t seen this video yet, I warn you: it will leave you infuriated and disgusted. If there is one person who thinks that our youth should be subjected to this level of violence over a plant, I have no words.

Teen put in coma by cop

An officer in Missouri pulled over this teen’s car because he thought the license plate was linked to a stolen car. It wasn’t, but that didn’t stop him from trying to find a reason to arrest this teenager. When he rolled down his window, the cop claimed to smell marijuana, and cops love to say that because apparently an odor is a justification for all sorts of police violence in the eyes of the law.

Tasered until his heart stopped

Bryce Masters, the teen in the dash cam video released by a judge, was tased four times longer than “protocol” says is standard. He went into cardiac arrest, and the officer cuffed his limp body and drug him over to the side of the road. Then the officer deliberately dropped his body onto the pavement, face first.

He suffered a dislocated jaw, several teeth smashed into pieces, gravel embedded into his face, a coma, and permanent brain damage that causes short-term memory loss, motor function control loss, and mental problems. He will have to live with the brain damage for the rest of his life, having to learn

This child, because he was still a child according to the law; only 17 at the time, was treated like an animal. He did have a small amount of weed in his pocket. You have to ask yourself, do you want this to happen to your child if they get caught with marijuana? Is this the response we want to be considered okay for someone having a plant in their possession?

Cop sentenced to four years in prison

The officer in the video, Timothy Runnels, was sentenced to 4 years in prison for depriving a minor of his civil rights because of the intentional face plant. But it was the tasing that deprived the young man’s brain of oxygen for 6-8 minutes as he suffered cardiac arrest from the tasing to the chest.

Matt Masters, the boys father, was himself a 19-year veteran of the police force, and could not believe the video. This tragedy occurred on September 14th, 2014, but the video has only recently been released. A more detailed story of the events can be read here.

Are you red in the face after watching this video? How can we let this treatment of cannabis users continue? Where is the justice? Shout out on social media or in the comments below.

The Undeniable Truth Of How Cannabis Oil Kills Cancer

How Cannabis oil Kills Cancer hero 1 The Undeniable Truth Of How Cannabis Oil Kills Cancer

Studies have shown that cannabis can fight tumours since 1974. This video highlights exactly how and why it is so effective. At the end, you can even see cancer cells kill themselves after being treated with cannabis.

It’s all about the receptors

Spread throughout the body, CB1 and CB2 receptors can tell the body there is an invader, and prompt an immune system response. According to the video, in the 1990’s researchers pinpointed these receptors, and discovered that they are located in the brain, as well as most major organs. The CB1 receptors are mainly in the brain but are also found throughout the body. The CB2 receptors are primarily found in the immune system, and when activated, can tell cancer to die.

So basically telling the cells basically to commit suicide and that’s what they do, and now we demonstrated that they would be the mechanism by which teh cannabinoids would kill the cancer, and therefore it can be used to effectively as an anti-cancer agent.

Research doctors kill almost 100% of cancers

In test tubes, doctors killed almost 100% of the cancers treated with cannabis. They were astounded. They moved on to mice, sceptical that they would see the same results. But even in animals, the results were still impressive. 25% – 30% of mice completely rejected their tumours, completely cured. The rest of the mice had significant reductions in the size of their tumours.

See it happen for yourself

On the right side of the video, cancer cells have been treated with cannabis, and the ones on the left are untreated. Quickly, you can see the cells begin to die. This video is an excerpt of a special that aired on Montana PBS, called “Clearing the Smoke: The Science of Cannabis”. You can find the link to the full video here.

In 1998, a research team at Madrid‘s Complutense University led by Dr Manuel Guzman discovered that THC can selectively induce programmed cell death in brain tumour cells without negatively impacting surrounding healthy cells. They reported in the March 2002 issue of “Nature Medicine” they had destroyed incurable brain cancer tumours in rats by injecting them with THC. And in 2007 even Harvard Researchers found that compounds in cannabis cut the growth of lung cancer.

Say Good-Bye To Cannabis Gummies. They’ve Been Banned

A Touch Of Glass #25: Lady’s Choice

Watch This Guy Hit 1 Gram In 1 Minute

1 Gram in 1 Minute hero Watch This Guy Hit 1 Gram In 1 Minute

There are realistic smoking challenges, impressive smoking challenges, and then there is this guy. You have to watch him naively take on a full gram of herb in under 1 minute! He may not finish on time, but he does finish. Who says cannabis makes you less ambitious?

A gram a minute?

This guy should have known he was in trouble when he weighed out his bud. A gram is 3 good size bowls. If you have ever smoked a bowl… Just kidding, who hasn’t? You should be able to see pretty quickly this isn’t going to work, but hey, what is YouTube for, if not for trying ridiculous challenges?

The challenge isn’t in the amount of herb. I can imagine that you are nodding in agreement. The trick is to blaze it all in under a minute. Aside from one giant bowl and a torch, I don’t see it happening.

More like a bowl a minute

I will give him this, he doesn’t try to win by burning the weed off and not taking the whole hit. He clears the bong every time. Good job! Strategy suggestion? If it is about taking hits fast, a bong is not the best option, though it will make the smoke smoother for the first few hits. This guy needs some senior smoking mentorship. I know an old lady who can out smoke him.

His next challenge?

Aside from the challenge of completing his outro while trying to form a complete sentence, what is next for this brave soul? Cookie eating challenge? I want to see his face after he gets introduced to the world of dabs. Now that is a challenge!

I am so ripped right now. I am so g*d-d*mned high… um.

What’s great is that even doing his outro, he is still exhaling smoke! Watch closely at the 6:25 mark.

You guys should be… What I did. So I got two minutes and fifty-seven seconds to finish…”

Then the high really kicks in, and he stops mid-sentence, staring off camera, turning at a perceived sound. Don’t you hate it when things interrupt your video recording, like the sound of your hair growing?
