How to ask a (BRITISH) person if they smoke

[Cali Ounces]

just wait for a break in the conversation,

"hey im curious, how do you feel about marijuana?"

[edd.excessive]

DO NOT ASK HER IF SHE LIKES BLOW. she will either think your trying to get her to suck your dick or she's gonna think you talking about coke. Being a londoner i would say that most people in the Uk are cool with toking so just ask her if she smoke weed or let her over hear you talking about ganja.

As a Londoner myself, just ask her if she wants a joint.

A few other things you should be aware of:

A FAG is a cigarette
Her FANNY is her pussy
A RUBBER only removes pencil marks
FAGGOTS are spicy meatballs

Does 4:20 mean anything in England???
What is the smoking scene like there? Do people look down on it more? (i am from norcal)


So, how would you go about asking a British person if they toke up? I think I will just ask how it is viewed in England, and then ask if she does.

Hmmm....anyone?


EDIT: oops, didn't make this clear: I am not going to England, the person in question is coming here. (a friend of a friend, staying 25 ish days, and is a chick, not a dude)

I've lived in london all my life and been smoking draw for a long while - no one has heard of 420. No one really look down on smokers, i can smoke a joint in the park and no one cares.

I'd say just ask her if she smokes bud - say it straight and you'll get a straight answer.

Well...heres the outcome....my brother (completely randomly) asked if she smokes, and yes she does. Unfortunately, I'm all out of weed right now, so.....hmmm...hopefully tomorrow.

just come right out with it man "do you partake in BLOW" (blow means ganja/hash here in uk)

heres a perfect example of why I dont understand British people

she'll think your a few sandwiches short of a picnic

seriously man WHAT does that mean

[cantharis]

Means - not too bright.

Tuppence short of a shilling.

Two bricks short of a load.

Pork pie short of a picnic.

All the same thing.

[guitarplay]

whel cheese and crackers mate everyone knows that

the best advice i can give you is simple, just ask her bluntly if she would like to get high.
"i have this "X" strain its pretty good, would you like some?"
or
"i have this joint, would you like to smoke it with me?"
the fact is if you are polite, strightforward with your approach no one will think it bad.

i am a medicinal user, but i also like that its a social medicine i love gettin everyone around me high so i i have to ask a lot of people. i say exactly that and they can only make 3 reactions total.

"fuck, yeah ill smoke that with you it looks pretty good"
or
"no thank you, i don' smoke"
or
"OMG WHY WOULD YOU ASK ME THAT" to which you can defuse this every time with a well placed. " i was just trying to be polite its ok that you don't smoke, im not a missionary, its not like ill convert you" then give a good laugh they will laugh too.and at that point you can smoke it later or if there ok with it then.
