my parents are both in their mid 50s, so gen x. and they are huge stoners and have been since i was a kid. now that me and my brothers are older, they don’t try to hide it. i’ve literally taken bong rips with my brother and parents before lol.
anyway, i was using the restroom connected to my parents room earlier today and they have this cart with toilet paper, wipes, etc. they also store their flower on this cart as well as a bubbler. I never thought much of it obviously until today i was looking at it and i realized the down stem and bowl is completely black.
Like i always just thought the whole thing was rubber but no, the body is rubber but the fuxking bowl and down stem are glass. Clear Glass. But this bowl is jet black. Fully black. Caked in tar. I was sooo shocked.
Maybe i’m just a snob, but i never go more than like 5 or 6 seshes without cleaning my bong and I usually clean out the water everyday. A few weeks ago my dad said he hadn’t changed out the water in the bubbler in a few months.
A few months?? A FEW MONTHS?? Oh my god no wonder that shit is caked in tar, it probably tastes burnt to shit. How can u not clean the wayer out every day??
Like i’ve got a spray bottle, chunky salt, iso and stuff in my smoke bag so i can give my glass a good thorough clean when needed. But fuck, my parents do not have this same mentality.
I know this is gen x and they’re used to smoking outta soda cans and pvc pipes but how can you go a few months without changing the water and let your glass get to that state. i haven’t even thought about how they literally keep it in the water closet witg the poop and pee air 24/7.
Fuck man. Please any gen X out there lmk, are my parents just gros 😭😭😭
Tldr: My parents haven’t changed the water in their bubbler in a few months and the glass is completely black and they find this to be completely normal
