Definition help for a Noob

    Hey there, I'm a first time poster long time lurker... if that's appropriate.
    Anyway, I have a problem. I read lots of threads on this forum because they are all very helpful and I actually like to learn about things I am quite fond of, and in this case, that thing is marijuana. Now from what I have gathered, everyone on this forum is very experienced in the ways of the herb (obviously) but in my case (being a noob) I have no idea what half of these clearly relevant terms are.
    I am hoping anyone reading this can help spread their knowledge with a young toker like myself by providing me with the basic definitions for some of the common terms.

    These are a few of the terms I have gathered so far that I don't know or couldn't research/just figure out on my own.

    Dank
    Mids
    Cornering the Bowl
    Quarter
    Eighth
    Kief..? Keif? I don't know
    Bubbler
    One Hitter?
    Steamroller
    Truth on whether I can use an empty cigarette as a joint (tobacco rolled out, same filter just filling the empty paper)
    Hookah

    I'm sure there are many more I don't know, if you helpful people can include some I may want to know.

    Also, if anyone can explain to me a rough explanation of the marijuana laws here in Canada, because I have been hearing everything from "police officers take it away" to "you go to jail"

    Thanks a lot, I know this is a noob post, in which case any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Dank - high grade weed
    Mids - mid grade weed
    Cornering the Bowl - smoking a corner of the bowl (part of the pipe where the weed goes) so other people can get hits off it too.
    Quarter - Quarter ounce?
    Eighth - 1/8 ounce (3.5grams)
    Kief..? Keif? I don't know - Kief : collected thrichomes (the crystals covering the buds/plant)
    Bubbler - pipe with a water filter.
    One Hitter? - a small bowled pipe?
    Steamroller - tube pipe basically.(google it)
    Truth on whether I can use an empty cigarette as a joint (tobacco rolled out, same filter just filling the empty paper) - I guess you could?
    Hookah - Google it.

    I wouldnt recommend using an empty cig for a joint. A lot of time the bud burns slower than the paper and it doesnt really work out. -Experience

    Very helpful post +rep

    One hitter - is a little straight pipe also refered to a bat. Its bowl is big enough for one hit. Its a on the go take a hit before class or something piece.

    Steamroller - is a pipe that is like a bong without the water. You can get nice big milky hits but they are harsher.

    Kief/Keef however one wants to spell it is just a collection of crystals from weed. It is usally collected from a grinder or from left over plant matter after a grow.

    Dank- Really good weed; usually very expensive
    Mids- Average weed, nothing special. Usually about $5 a gram.
    Quarter- One fourth of an ounce a.k.a 7 grams
    Eighth- One eighth of an ounce a.k.a 3.5 grams
    Kief- The little crystaly things you get after grinding weed in a grinder. It gets you very high.
    One Hitter- Used for one quick hit of weed.
    Steamroller- Just another type of thing to smoke out of, usually with a giant opening at the end of it.
    Truth on whether I can use an empty cigarette as a joint- Just go buy a pack of zig-zags man
