Is anyone interested in posting videos for promoting the proper methods of using snuff on-line for all the curiouse people out there? I’m thinking about making a short one with the hand, pinch, and bullet methods tomorrow. I believe it would help our cause for eventually making this wonderful product more available to people out there. Or, if anyone already has seriouse videos of it please send them to me. Most of the video’s I see are way too long, and they show people snorting snuff as if it were something other than a legal, enjoyable form of tobacco use. I guess all the coffee, snuff, and IPA have taken the toll on me today. Off to bed with the birthday fiance’, allthough she doesn’t look so good after being in the tavern since 2:30. I’m somewhat happy that I avoid the bar-scene anymore.
Thats a really good idea mcguyver75. As you say there are already several videos here and there and some are of the most doubtful utility. There seem to be a large number of the snort a line type thing where the subject fashions a very long couple of lines and whoofs it up, high fiving himself. These are probably whats known as snuff headies or something - the kind of snuffing as an extreme passtime bunch. Now I have absolutely no problem with these people, in my book a gentleman (or gentlelady) should be able to snuff a sackfull using a drainpipe as a snuffing tool and hang upside down like a bat whilst he does so, not a problem, to me and I really don’t mean to impugn anyone who finds that they are drawn to that particular type of snuffing technique. What the net does lack, as you point out, is a thread for the serious minded new snuffer who would like to see just how its done but without the ^5’s and death metal playing in the background like a bunch of snuff eating trolls. I think a whole new line of ‘how to snuff’ videos (or I suppose we should call them uploads or something, Im not sure) should be created where the subject matter is dealt with in let us say a more genteel fashion. There is already one very good set of them called ‘How to reduce your tobacco costs’ or similar (I can’t swear to the exactitude of the title) where a distinguished looking slighlty ‘older’ gentleman takes us (the viewer) through the process of taking a pinch. He even takes the time to talk about his own favourite snuffs that he has found through trolling through the main available brands. In any case the presentations are very useful indeed. I won’t be able to have any input myself as I have no personal interest in the project having mastered sniffing powder with what seems to be indecent ease compared to many nowadays. Maybe we just sniffed more in my day! Who Knows. Anyway, a great idea for a project and I really like the concept of the hand, pinch, bullet, explanatory presentation. You could also maybe include blowing your troll afterwards. Its remarkable that some people have issues with that or feel that they are in some way doing things wrong if they have a jolly good old ‘snot up’ (pardon my French) after a blast of snuff. I do know that some of the members here are equipped to post motion pictures on the net due to the annual Toque Art competition (you have to check this out, absolutely hillarious!!) Thanks for the suggestion, it would be great to have the ‘snuffhouse’ brand more widely on the net.
I’m still searching what’s out there. The Mr. Snuff video is good. I’m thinking something sweet and to the point. I know with facebook when I get a youtube link that’s longer than a couple of minutes I never seem to watch it. I can’t find the video of the guy taking a huge amount of Dholakia White and choking, then taking another hit with his other nostril. I take pretty large pinches of the white myself, but it’s taken me three months to get that far. I still use a bullet for some of the stronger ones. Anyway, in the next day or so if I don’t find one, I’ll put on some make-up and give a short demo.
The gauntlet is thrown. Really, we definitely need more polished snuff videos available. There’s got to be someone on here that’s pretty enough for video…I know it ain’t me!
Mrmaroon made a few good vids, but I haven’t seen him in a while.
It is such a complex thing learning how to take snuff. You would think it would be easy, just taking a small pinch of powder and sniffing it into your nostril but I struggled for years before I got it right, even dislocating my thumb one time. What we need is someone that can put complex issues across in a way that people can understand. Does anyone have a contact for Mr Maroon? I don’t remember his stuff personally but if he was good at vids maybe he could come out of retirment. There is a vid on here incidentally (or link I suppose) by a girl snuffer - can’t remember the name but look on you tube and she would certainly be perfect as the ‘face of snuffhouse’. I would offer myself for the job but I look lile a gargoyle.
I saw an Asian girl with a UK accent on youtube, maybe that was her. I’m kind of ugly myself, but thinking I may try anyway.
I might try making a snuff video, but I’m not great at snuffing yet so maybe it would be best if I didn’t. But I’m young and I already have a fanbase of 13-22 year old pot and energy drink users on youtube (don’t ask). At least I could point them in the direction of proper snuff use. I am decent at my current method of snuff use, but that’s only one method out of a whole bunch. Also, snuffster, how on earth did you dislocate your thumb!? That’s honestly one of the funniest things I’ve seen on this forum.
Its so embarassing I’d rather keep it to myself.
Were you trying the ancient art of flying backwards thumb to nose snuffing? I hear you have to have your blackbelt to master that one. Your lucky only your thumb got dislocated!
When we say snuff films, we may be giving the wrong idea. 90% of the time, no matter the method, I tend to use only my right side, that may look odd in a video. @snuffster… It seems like you sparked the intrest of several people, maybe you should make a video of how not to dislocate your thumb while using snuff.
I’m laughing my fuckin’ ass off rolling on the floor, that is too funny! Dislocated your thumb? You sir, are my idol.
I think itsuke was the smallish Asian girl that did snuff reviews. Haven’t seen her on in ages.
Roderick, if you could get Tropical Bob to do this it would be awesome. His YouTube user name is TropBobB. His tobacco videos are very well done, and he carries himself very well while speaking. I could not give this man enough praise. Check out his videos on YouTube when you get a chance.
His snuffhouse name is Tropical Bob as well. Itsuke is the Asian girl, yes. She doesn’t sound like she has a British accent to me, it sounds Chinese, though I believe she was raised in British Hong Kong. She will, no doubt confirm that if she wishes. Her youtube name is, I think, Akibatai. The best thing is that she has a ton of snuff reviews on video. She has many more than milverton68 and mr maroon. She also edits them with captions at times, which is very professional and helpful. If someone has more video reviews than her, I’d like to know. I love reading (and watching) and also writing reviews. Shikitohno: she stopped in not long after the Mateo fiasco when he tried to claim her as a reference. She, as any sane individual would, denounced that piece of refuse.
Tropical Bob is cool, he’s got a great way of delivering the material. The girls I referred to was (or still is ) a member here called Gemma O’Brien. The film she was in looked as though it might have been an art school project.
I’m thinking of a very basic, very short, (about 2 minutes) video that one on facebook, or myspace would acutally have the patience to watch. My thought is to get more people interested. Kind of like the beginnings of cigarettes. A fun joke would be of my dentist dad recommending some Toque in a commercial.
Dentist make me uncomfortable. That Gamma O’Brien gal would be great, she makes me feel comfortable. ;b
You’ve never met my dad… A dentist with lots of tat’s wearing bib-overalls promoting and showing a basic example of using toque snuff. He can even take his front partial dentures out for that tru hillbilly look! Back to the actual video,… when I said a short one just to get non-users to bite the hook, I’m not thinking an ammature video taken by my web-cam would be so good. I’m leaning towards the girl if anyone can find her. I liked the one on Mr. Snuff too, just a little long. The video’s out there are not too bad for us, I’m just thinking of the average attention span I would have if someone posted a video of an infomercial. Usually people are put-off the first time I ask them if they want a pinch, but I’ve found if I pull out some of the milder flavours that people are more willing, then before you know it they are asking for something with punch!
mcguyver75, make sure you link to the videos here so we can all take a look. Good luck!
