I like to use a sniffer to take my snuff, and have started my new habit of just taking my sniffs right out of the box. I have enough control to not injure myself with it, and it’s always a kind that I’m not sharing that day. Does anyone else do this?
I’ve never done that but now I’d like to know how you go about doing that. Does it have dispenser hole you use to pour into your nose? Someone mentioned seeing a classmate do that with a poschi.
I’ve tried it a few times, but I either end up blowing my head clean off, or not getting anything at all.
Ive not tried it,but im still perfecting my pinch.it doesnt seem right to do that anyway.i think i would blow my head off if i tried.lol
@TomStrasbourg There is no special technique to it really. I have a wood snuffbox that holds about 5g (one from Mr. Snuff). I just slide the lid back and use my sniffer. I have been using my sniffer (rolled dollar bill) for a while now, so I have pretty good control over it. The only real secret to it is use the same snuff every time, and you’ll eventually figure out how far you need to be based on the grind and moisture content. The really fine snuffs are harder to learn, but they’re doable. I guess I might be strange in snuffing this way. it doesn’t sound like it’s terribly common based on the comments so far.
@Dogwalla I didn’t put two and two together and figure you used a sniffer. I was imagining you just putting your nose in the box and sniffing away like scarf ace at the end of the movie.
@TomStrasboug Hahahaha! That’s classic. i’ll have to make a YouTube video of that sometime and see how bad I hurt myself. It would be even worse than that silly cinnamon challenge that people do.
Sounds like shotgunning a fine scotch whisky. Yeah you’ll get drunk but you miss the best part.
It’s not a quantity thing. I can use just as much as I put on the back of my hand, I just find it simple. I think I’m alone with this one.
I’m not really talking quantity. I think your delivery system would leave you missing out on many of the savory aspects of snufftaking. Where it lands in the nose for instance is totally different between pinching, a bullet, or a sniffer tube. I’ve tried it before. But whatever floats your balloon… :)>-
The sniffer in the snuff box sounds like its worth a try at any rate.
lol i happened to do this about a week ago… tried to be real careful but accidently snuffed waaaay too much. quite an experience!
The locals say, how is that legal? [Snuff use] If I was searched for some reason ,I would be busted for drug paraphernalia,[Snuff Sniffer]. And need a good lawyer to fix that mess. No thanks! I have a thumb nail that is all I need.[Box Car Method]
This is how I’ve taken to using scotches actually. Just stick the sniffting in the box, take a quick sniff, and that’s it, quick and clean.
*sniffer Not sure why I said “sniffting”, whatever that is…maybe I so go put my sniffer in the coffee pot now
Shaman makes a good point. I use and carry a silver snuff spoon. Since insufflated methamphetamine is a big problem where I live, I am very discreet about where I pull out my spoon and snuff at. As far as a metal straw goes, and since my area has problems attracting the best and brightest police, I’m sure the local police would arrest anybody caught with a “snuff straw” on principle. As far as a silver spoon goes, I suppose the same could happen. But most junkies would’ve pawned such a thing for dope early in their addiction.
Here’s one. I opened a tap box. Now, because I can’t see the names on my various boxes and tins, I take a little whiff to try and determine which snuff I have in hand. Not easy, even with a good olfactory system in play, but it can be done. Well, it *can* be done, if one is careful not to inhale too quickly. I held the tap box, hole open about an inch under my left nostril and whiffed to identify the snuff. WHAM!! About a teaspon (I exagerrate a bit) lofted itself out of the box and straight up my proboscus. Yikes! i cried, I sneezed, I couged, I fell down… BTW, Mitchell’s, in case you were wondering. Thank God it wasn’t Red Bull, or I might not be alive to write this.
