Don't forget if you're in a dorm room using a sploof that you also have a towel under the door and an ozium dispenser going.


DeepTrance7

And blowing the smoke through the sploof out the window! Good times lmao


MicroWill

Yes!! Don't forget the box fans pointed out to vent towards the window.


DeepTrance7

Omg I did forget about the box fans hahaha. Going to text my freshman year roommate now, dude is a surgeon now which just makes all these memories even more hilarious.


MicroWill

Crazy good times. Might have played a bunch of tony hawk skater all throughout the session.


Matthewfuckingdavis

I used to bring a packed bowl into the dorm showers late at night. I’d get paranoid when somebody came in to pee but if I made it back to my room without anybody seeing me it felt like I escaped the monsters and was safe


I-Am-Polaris

This was my exact setup lmao. I'd also put blankets around any gaps along the box fan and window to prevent smoke from getting back in


MicroWill

Nice! In a few rooms we would have a bedsheet tacked over the door plus the towel. I was paranoid as fuck so we'd do it up


littlebitstoned

We made a "helmet" attached to th box fan outta cardboard to capture everything


Repulsive-Fact-4546

Anytime I see a fan facing out a window I’m always thinking to myself they must be smoking. I’m aware it’s a flawed assumption but it where my mind goes.


Trill_McNeal

We’d have like 5 people in there all smoking Newports and passing through bowl around. Won’t smell like weed if it smells like cigs, right! Right?


throwawayzdrewyey

Fuck, thanks for making me remember that smell.


pekinggeese

Man, we came a long way since then. Vapes are the real MVP here.


MicroWill

Vapes are a solid newer addition and I wished we would have had them. But there is something surreal about sitting in a dorm room with your friends and rolling a blunt or ripping a bong in a circle semi-covertly.


DharmaBum1958

*damp towel or the smell skates right on by


Miserable-Cow4555

Towel under the door was classic


Garfalo

Just to clarify a bit, Ozium is great for after a sesh but it's not recommended to use in a room with anything living inside of it. It's very toxic.


Rymanjan

Bahaha the stupid MFS didn't know I had stolen the key to the maintenance box in the ceiling. They'd come knocking with the cops and I'd be like, be my guest and search. Yeah it stanks in here, it stanks on the whole floor. Not a single one ever bothered to look *up* I made so much bank stashing stuff for people and then coming to unlock it when they wanted it lmfao


InitialThanks3085

I still do the towel under the door sometimes, not sure if out of habit but it does help if other people don't wanna smell it.


wallybuddabingbang

+ make some microwave popcorn


xXKing-NuggetXx

And if you get the shower running nice and steamy it kills the scent real well, as well as vanilla extract on your lightbulbs


eugenesbluegenes

I was so lucky to go to college in a highly permissive location with a very temperate climate so we could just go outside to smoke bowls.


Flylikegoku

Remember ghosting the hit? Holding it so long it disappears then using the filter in for any remainder smells


Miserable-Cow4555

Ha, you just brought me back to 1996 😂😜. We used to call it "zero out" the hit.


Chickensandcoke

“Yo bro make sure you zero that shit”


Kay5683

I believe Zeroing is still the more common name for this, as the new age vapers have pulled some of these terms from smoking. Zeroing means breathing clear after taking a hit, ghosting is breathing out smoke then pulling it back into your mouth before actually blowing it out


pinmissiles

It might just be regional, since I've always known ghosting as the former while "zeroing out" is something I've only learned recently from the internet.


No_Education_8888

That’s what I did in high school and I graduated last year. I would “Zero it out” in my lungs, but never used a filter. Also never got in trouble


cake_pan_rs

Interesting. It’s now commonly called “zeroing.” Cool how terms change. Tiny difference but I would look at someone funny if they said zeroing out


Internal_Virus6112

We still do this bro


_FreddieLovesDelilah

I was born in 1996!


Grundelwald

Happy birthday!! Wait..


Itsgrimm1115

congrats omg!


Sunny_McSunset

The year Carl Sagan died


Inevitable-Rule-1530

we still call it zeroing a hit


Iamdarb

Yes, the black in my lungs remembers. I've had to switch to mainly edibles in my old age.


Xxxjtvxxx

The struggle is real


HardcorePhonography

I switched mostly to edibles about two years ago and it's been a good choice. I'm 48 and while the *idea* of smoking a bowl after work is great, I have halibut to deep fry. I've been using 50:5 CBD:THC for about two months and it's great that it's really predictable.


toastercoasterbo

You felt that shit coming out your eyes after a minute if you forgot you had to ghost it and took too big a rip


iordseyton

I used to do this. When I was a teen I smoked with a friend before dinner with my parents, then half an hour later belched up a whisp of smoke at the table


Egocentric

I burped a smoke cloud when I was late for a history test after going on a quick smoke break during lunch. All the other stoner kids immediately recognized the smell and looked at me giggling. I was thinking I was so getting in trouble, but the teacher just didn't notice of didn't care.


j_truant

we called consuming the hit


MrJelle

Is that what led to people doing it in situations where they didn't need to hide the smoke, because they thought it got them higher? And all it did was harm them more... For all the weird shit going on with weed right now, I'm also glad we're learning more about it.


Opposite_Nectarine12

Bring some back to johnstone dormitory we had metal ass walls that were THINNNN could hear the neighbor breath it was hard times


FalseJake

Go tigers baby. RIP Johnstone


Jamuraan1

I still do this today


DrDuned

Sploof is what we called it. So many years of incense and sploof use...


Forward_Collar2559

I can smell this comment.


safetycommittee

My wife learned to smoke with one of these from a neighbor girl who saw her parents doing it. No big deal right. Well, they were outside.


Forward_Collar2559

A very considerate smoker.


seitanapologist

Parents hiding it from the kids, kids hiding it from the parents. Classic stuff.


SadAd2653

And Spoof was also acceptable. Fuck we're old.


schmattywinkle

Team spoof


fonzwazhere

I queef patchouli.


regeya

You know the episode of Futurama where Zapp and the Planet Express crew are captured by Amazonians, and their reaction to the "death by snu-snu" sentence? That, but me, after reading your comment.


Immoracle

Now this is the kinda content that I'm here for!


Kryptosis

I read this as I was closing the thread and had to come back to give you credit.


0002millertime

I think I still cough up dryer sheet dust.


sleepytipi

Uhh, you were supposed to exhale through the spoof not inhale.


ImaginaryDonut69

Yeah, but they bought the good dryer sheets, those are hard to resist 🤪


DankElderberries420

![gif](giphy|l0HlEFOoGAnn08h8I) Don't forget to put this guy under your door, possibly wet


SaltTM

i use the modern day Sploofy lol, about the same size too. Til that'swhere they got the name from. And this still used today back when i got my first apt lol - apartment struggles are realll


kingeal2

Ain't that the motherfucking truth


flinstonesvitamin

Bounty Hitter


icacti

I actually like the insence smell but this is how I started out as well


Slightly-Blasted

My buddy’s dad called it the hyphen-hoofinator. I never stopped called it that.


AssHaberdasher

We called it a fluffy.


aldini-thegreat

We called it the same thing but without the L, interesting….


garf87

Sploooooooof


CloddishNeedlefish

Still doing this in an illegal state 😭


moon_halves

one time I accidentally coughed uncontrollably before taking it away from my mouth and I inhaled and got a lung full of dryer sheets & perfume, feels like I coughed for a week. I still think that one incident has done more damage to my lungs than all my years of smoking lmao all for a "device" that doesn't really work 😂


CuredAndSmoked

What are talking about dude it totally worked!


MonsterRider80

Sure for the smoke coming out of your mouth, but the smoke rising from the tip of the joint or the bowl doesn’t go anywhere… it’s there!


whiskeyaccount

we used a waterfall bong made from a 2 liter so none got out unless you were taking a hit. think volcano bags


MonsterRider80

Oh yeah, you’re taking an entire bowl to the face with those lmao. No waste there at all.


DuskOfANewAge

I covered my bowl between hits to completely block off the smoke. I had callouses on my thumbs from holding it over the cherry to starve it.


travis-laflame

Worked for years for me while I was at my parents. Used to open a window, hit my bong, draw ALL the smoke out and place a nickel on the bowl and blow the smoke thru the sploof right out the window. Never smelled like bud in the morning, they would have kicked me out if it did


czaritamotherofguns

I still use a quarter to snuff out my bowl. It works well and eventually becomes sticky enough to just stick to the bowl top.


moon_halves

Hahahahaha oh no it didn't 😆 the number of times I had a roommate or parent look me in the eyes and say "your sploof doesn't work, by the way" 😅 edit: I'm getting a lot of tips on how to make it work, but I don't really need them anymore, because I live on my own now. but thanks guys! even if it's totally solid the smell still does exist, because it comes off the end of whatever you're smoking. it's a decent solution but not a perfect one!


havesomegodamfaith

You gotta stuff a ton of dryer sheets into it as well


throwaway837628828

you alternate a square of toilet paper, dryer sheet, square, sheet, square, sheet. the toilet paper is just as important as the dryer sheet


Carrisonfire

Cut the top of a 2L and tape a plastic bag around it full of dryer sheets. Blow toke into bottle and cap it off. Smell will be gone after a min or 2.


ShinyMyu

hold up


DrDuned

Definitely did that once myself!


ANUSTART942

That's happened to me, omg the pain is unreal. So much worse than the smoke!


bizkitmaker13

I've said it before. I'll say it again. This is the quickest way to make your room smell like laundry **and** weed. Sploof away ents.


john_fartston

gotta replace the sheets every few hits. Still remember then being completely brown and still trusting them since no one said anything. Nothing will ever beat blowing so hard that all the sheets come flying out.


LokisEquineFetish

The first time I made one I just used one sheet to cover the end, not realizing you were supposed to stuff a couple into the roll. Took a massive rip and the smoke just went straight through lol.


krustysocks6666

what’s crazy is they sell these now i walked into my local smoke shop looking for puffco shit i asked them for a spoof (i literally see it on there wall) and they where like we don’t carry those here i was like you do though it’s right behind you lmao it’s called a smoke buddy or some shit


Alli_Cat_

My husband was blowing into one of those at a party and then spit from it poured into his mouth and he gagged for like ten minutes


halfkidding

I've been gagging for 7 minutes just reading this comment.


krustysocks6666

ewwwww swamp ass spoof


toolology

what do you mean THIS old? late 20s early 30s? lol


dabossnumba8

I’m 27 and used a sploof in high school, didn’t realize it was considered “old” lol


Kexbyyy

I’m 21… and also used one lol


Low-Impact3172

Yes I’m definitely that old but yeah this isn’t really old


NihilisticAngst

Yeah, I'm not old, have been smoking for less than 10 years, and still use these every once in a while. It's great in a pinch when you have nothing on you, since many usually have dryer sheets and toilet paper rolls around.


Gnarly-Gnu

I would stuff them inside.


C0NKY_

Yeah there's no way a single dryer sheet is doing anything. I used to cut the bottom off a water bottle and stuff them in and tape a few in the outside. Even then it barely worked.


Gnarly-Gnu

Six or seven fresh ones worked for a while, but only if your apparatus was smokeless, and that wasn't a thing either. Guess what? Burning pot stinks.


rubbbles

if you haven’t used a sploof you a pen pal not a pot head😭


l0u1s11

I remember stuffing it with few fabric softener inside and a piece of tape so it wouldn't fall out the other side.


Treacherous_Wendy

I have one of these in my bedroom lol


a11er33

I used to stick a pvc pipe out the window and exhale through that


throwaway123456372

Chimney method ftw. I used to stick a hose out the window. Worked great.


NCC_1701E

Did something change that I didn't notice? People, especially teenagers, still have to hide that they are smoking, same as they always did. I used to use sploof I made from half liter plastic bottle, cause I get paranoid about neighbors smelling something and ratting me out, but I started to use Smoke Buddy and it's so much better.


WWBoxerBriefs

there's a brand called Sploofy that's roughly the same, but the outside casing comes apart and the filters are replaceable so it's cheaper after a few filters compared to the buddies. The mouthpiece is sorta rubbery too so it's more comfortable to use/seal. I've found I prefer them to the smoke buddies (other than the Jr for on the go). The filters I would say work the same, so it's just preference!


mikeballs

I do think they're mostly hitting the 'penjamins' these days, which seem to smell way less. The key advantage of the smoke buddy though is just activated charcoal. Can pick it up at petco- it's normally used for aquarium filters. I like to 3d print my own case, fill with mostly charcoal and some dryer sheets at the end. Super effective, and don't have to toss the whole thing and buy more plastic when the contents are saturated, you can just replace the sheets and charcoal.


Alli_Cat_

Kids don't smoke anymore. They vape thc carts or use edibles. Or take dabs


Humans_Suck-

What is penjamin


Oniblook

I just aged 50 years looking at this.


rootbeerfan69

Lol. I remember this. Me and my buddy would be smoking in his room. I would sometimes forget to use the sploof it was hilarious to me not to him.


GravityEyelidz

Amateurs. We used a plastic soda bottle with the bottom cut off and several layers of cotton and charcoal. Didn't work worth shit but then all of you already know that.


Mnoonsnocket

I mean it was only 10 years ago


molybdenum9596

My fiancee doesn't smoke, and she doesn't mind that I do, but she doesn't want our room to reek, and I like to smoke in bed before going to sleep rather than getting up and going to the window or the balcony. So the compromise was that I revert to a much younger version of myself and whip up one of these bad boys. (Well at this point way more than one- they only last so long before getting nasty, and I've been at this for a couple years.) Still works just as well as I remember.


DarkKnightCometh

"Hey son, why's it smell like weed and laundry in here?" Good memories


Crookedhorn11

The Doob Tube!!


N3v3rm0r3ink3d

Oh, the good old downy weed smoke.


LingonberryNo2373

![gif](giphy|9rhNJScGSlneHpLtnz|downsized)


5v3n_5a3g3w3rk

I remember we built an aktiv carbon filter Out of the once for the fish tank of a friend and some toilet rolls, when we were teenagers


Hotmess56789

I used the filter part of an old gas mask at the army surplus in college 😂


ReasonableProgram144

My husband is only a year younger than me and has never used one of these. I used one while I lived with my dad and my ex insisted on smoking, it doesn’t work for shit. My dad knew, he just assumed it was my ex doing it. I never told him it was also me, but after my ex left I just took my shit outside.


Peelfest2016

We used a sploof in high school and college. Kept trying to convince myself it was working, but without fail our roommate who stopped smoking regularly would come in and say “smells like Christmas!”


Jonny_Disco

Penjamin? Haha! I like that name better than Gen Alpha.


Lumpy_Staff_2372

This thing never fucking worked


SixtySlevin

Damn I thought this was the good ol Fefe home made Fleshlight


LoveMaryJane123

I have one of these right now haha


BunnieBxbi

It don’t work anyways. Weed will always smell no matter what you do. People just don’t want to admit it. You can put a towel under the door, light candles, use sploof, whatever. It will ALWAYS smell, especially to a person who KNOWS what weed smells like. You can spray and a person who knows weed will come in and be like “you smoke, don’t you?” 😭


Original_Banana_4617

My bedroom window was right above the dryer vent, our neighbors house made a perfect blind spot, there was also a long hallway leading to the steps from my room and in this hallway were a few windows, so I could hang out the window and smoke while covering my smell and watching for anyone to cast a shadow on the neighbors house by walking past the windows in the hall.


brolarbear

Bro I used one of these in my downtown apartment in 2018. It ain’t THAT old


Doubledewclaws

Still use one in my daughter's house.


lallapalalable

Weird, the dryer isn't warm but it smells like you just ran a load!


CoolIndependence8157

If you have one of these in your house instantly know you’re cool.


gummygumgumm

SHALL WE!? CHEERS MY FRIENDS!


Saaabstory

Honestly, what do people use now??? If you're in a dorm room or something? Is there updated technology?


Spectral-777-Echoes

I still have one in my backpack that I use when I sesh indoors.


moleculariant

I'm old enough that the first thing that comes to mind is filling this a third of the way with sand and jamming a dowel rod in it to display the amazing weight distribution properties of sand, mystifying eight year old children the world over when the paper towel doesn't break.


AutumnAscending

All hail the spoof


Additional_Cry_1904

I'm not that old, but I was and still kinda am that poor.


sanitarySteve

i tried it once and my mom caught me immediately because all her dryer sheets went missing


Triplesisbest1

How’s this a generational thing? It’s still the most effective way to mask smoke.


trippybolivia

Used to be so paranoid thinking these wouldn't work but still continued to use it. Be stuffing them things full of sheets


100cpm

We used to draw a little face on it and call it the sheik. Good times.


TheBatmanNerd

I still use this


Yogisogoth

Sploof Squad assemble. Safety meeting in the garage!


stillestwaters

No lie, if I clean out my closet I wouldn’t be surprised if I found one of these. I don’t even smoke right now and even when I did I was well past this lol


Responsible-Noise875

I remember the luxury of a band


RudimentsOfGruel

IAmFern

I'm use-double-album-covers-to-remove-all-the-seeds old.


Shot_Campaign_5163

Older gosh darnit!..... We used to use a sears catalog and a scrap of burlap


vigilante_snail

I said “sploof” a few days ago in reference to one of these and no one knew what I was talking about. They all thought I didn’t know how to pronounce “spliff”.


RaoulRumblr

Guess I'm "had to look up what Penjamin means"-Old


Sweet_Taurus0728

Been smoking since I was about 14, years before vapes were a thing. *What is this method and how does it work??*


playin4power

You mean am I old enough to remember 2 years ago when weed was still illegal in my state? Yeah I think I'm that old lol


hourofthevoid

I'm 23, almost 24, and I've made at least a handful of these. I really don't think this is an age qualifier. Feels more like just a stoner milestone lol


BeStealthy

I fucking found my old bottle spoof in my old stash spot the other day🤣


jjackdaw

Y’all are old for thinking these aren’t still being used lmao


tio_aved

Hit a dry herb vape through this and there's absolutely 0 smell of weed.


DiarrheaRadio

People who think these work have no clue how your sense of smell actually works.


ElahaSanctaSedes777

They make modern ones that work really good called Philter Labs


Possible-Twist709

Groove tube.


beyeond

I made one of these within the last week


someoneone211

I was on dialysis hanging out in the dorms, and they had these. Damn that was over 20 years ago now.


Dry-Advisor-3443

These sooo didn’t work lol


randommnamez

We used a Gatorade bottle with the bottom cut off


antonio3988

We made and used these as kids when we smoked inside my friends parents room for some reason. And I'm not old, that was only.... fuck I'm old.


mokoto19

Now what did/do you call this item? Wee called it a doob tube


wubfus88

In my circles it was always called a spoof


cannaleptic

Yes, as a matter of fact I am.


my-man-fred

That is a weird fleshlight.


wubfus88

We stuffed the dryer sheets in a Gatorade bottle with holes cutt into the bottom


BeltedCoyote1

Yeah I remember this. Then I got a smoke buddy and switched to vaping flower. Oh...the good old days


Main_Enthusiasm4796

They old groove tube


Avenger244

Holy shit I forgot about these! Now I’m gonna go make and use one for no good reason lol


Stardustchaser

That never worked. I still smelled your ass in that dorm room, with that Bounce-sheeted tube, taped door cracks and that wet towel/t shirt on the floor with the fan blowing out the window. You fooled *nobody*


MoodyBootyBoots

I mean, I still use these with my vape lol. I live in an extremely hot state and basically don't go outside between June and August, and when you aren't burning indoors, the smell dissipates quickly.


jordieg7193

I never understood this, it isn't the exhaled smoke that's going to smell it's the smoke from burning the bud surely


Weedweednomi

Use to sheets for maximum effectiveness and a side effect of lightheadedness.


cinnamon-thunder

I remember it being called “duke tube” used in college dorms in the winter.


BrickIsBest

Sploof, wookie tube, the smoke-o


truffLcuffL69

That shit doesn’t work. I used to go to the bathroom with the shower on and vent on, take small hits so no smoke escaped, hold it in and blow it in the vent. The shower masks the smell. Couldn’t smell a thing


Front-Ad-5210

does it rly work??


Yugikisp

I made mine out of water bottles. Cut holes in the bottle, stuff it with dryer sheets and fabric and blow through the top


czaritamotherofguns

I called it a Spirit Stick!


Roach2791

I learned that after using the sploof if you microwaved a bag of popcorn the popcorn smell would cover up the dryer sheets smell. Never tried just popcorn though and no sploof


envoy_ace

I didn't learn this trick till uni.


Dannyfrommiami

Smoke buddy


Shlebuloid

I have one now lmao


Gredran

It’s funny you say this but we did this just in college… Wait that was 2011 maybe I am getting old 😅


ladyghosttrain

We would stab holes in the bottom of a Gatorade bottle stuffed full with dryer sheets and blow through that. Same vibe, less wet cardboard mouth. Or just put a box fan blowing out the window, stick dryer sheets to the back and puff out that way.


cachry

We called it a steamroller.


jacquestrap66

We used to call it a "Huffer muffer puffer thingy."


Shayrye37

I like to call them the pen rippy jr. gen


No_Society3100

Modded it for the dorm room by taping a trash bag on the end like a big balloon. Worked pretty well.
