BONG

Chapter one: The beginning

It should be written, in an ancient scripture or one of those prehistoric scrolls you don’t see too often, that man made bongs. It should be celebrated, that man made bongs. Little is known about the bountiful culture and intricate ways that go behind the art of the bong. The bong, simply put, could be the bridging point between mankind and beyond. I solely believe that bong designing and creating is going become a new would-phenomenal art. By now, you’re thinking, “Man, what kind of stuff is this guy smoking? He must be insane.” Well no, insane I am not. One could describe my state of mind as; in immaculate condition. For what I have my dear friends, is enlightenment. Enlightenment on what you wonder? That is, the art of the bong. Now, if you read this far, it means you can read, and if you can read; surely you know what a bong is? A bong is a device used for smoking ‘pure’ marijuana. It usually consists mainly of a large chamber which holds a quarter of its capacity with water, a pipe leading from the burning source into the water, a carburettor, a cone and a mouth piece. In case you’re wondering what all this stuff means, I’ll explain:

i) Chamber- A chamber is a container; home-made bongs for example usually use items such as plastic bottles and transparent lotion bottles as chambers. By saying that a quarter of the chamber’s capacity should consist of water, it should be understood that this simply means water should be poured under half of the container. The chamber is useful in that it shows the bong-user precisely how potent the contents of the burning-source are. The carburettor is also located on the chamber’s lining; this is primarily the only place on a bong that a carburettor can be placed.
ii) Water- Water is an essential part of the bong anatomy. Without water, the bong is a useless machine. Water is used to rejuvenate and stimulate smoke cells inside the chamber. The water should be strategically handled to prevent it from interfering with the burning source. Several variations such as; hot/warm water (this opens pores in the throat, relaxing it and stimulating the mind further)and icy water (this contracts pores in the throat, aggravating it and stimulating the mind even further) add to a new experience each time.
iii) Pipe- The pipe is another essential part of the bong anatomy. The pipe determines whether the hit will be hard or rough. A hard hit is usually a result of a pipe with a smaller circumference than the carburettor. Hard hits require deeper inhalation from the bong user and usually take longer than rough hits to omit an equal amount of produce. Rough hits are usually a result of a pipe with a significantly larger circumference than the carburettor. Rough hits can also be a result of a generally large pipe. Thin pipes are prone to major cloggage; when clogged, soft pipes are useless, harder pipes can be revived by unclogging. The pipe is truly a bong-essential.
iv) Burning Source- This is just the connection between the pipe and the cone. It is an important but small part of the bong. It can cool too.
v) Cone- This is the #1 essential part of the bong anatomy, the cone. The cone is a cone-shaped metal container, usually about 2.5 inches high with an average circumference of about 3 inches. It is open on both ends to allow seamless suction. The cone should be easily removable and fairly durable. The reason the cone is made of metal is because it is where the wise leaves are placed to amber.
vi) Mouth Piece- This is a large opening on one end of the bong that is used by the bong-user to take a hit. Depending on the nature of the bong, it could be used to pour water into the chamber.

“I think they’re so many things wrong with me, the last thing I should be worried about is what’s wrong with me”
-Self quote, I philosophised with this during a very ‘profound’ moment in my life.

“Every man has their wishes. Every woman has her chances. Therefore why leave wishes to chance?”
-I came up with this right now.
