so Americans call the bit of rolled up card the roach,sometimes the filter and also the butt of the joint.no? still confussed.

No.

Take one of yours and break the filter off.

Then smoke it.

The tiny bit of weed wrapped paper you have left as a butt (like a filter less cig butt) is called a roach here.

Never saw a filter used here in over 50 years of smoking.

A roach is just the weed version of a filter less cig butt.

Tobacco = filter less cig butt

Weed = roach

Both are just the little bit of paper left when done smoking. One has tobacco inside, one has weed inside

A rolled up card, but no idea what it's for.

Here you have a rolling paper and roll up the weed to get a joint

Both ends of the joint are the same, nothing else is added.

And a blunt is just replacing the rolling paper with cigar wrap.

Still nothing else added

What does the bit of card do ?

Never even saw one, or any kind of joint filter until I saw your first cuppa pic

helps the j keep its shape,helps prevent soggy bottom i spose.helps stop bits of weed hitting the back of your throat,and making you gag.and you shouldnt burn your lip,and should you want to smoke it to the death you wont need tweezers.
thats just a guess i duno.
the first joint i rolled i put a roach in it,i must have seen it done before and just followed.

I helped a lady with a flat tires years ago, when I was about done she asked me what I wanted for helping. Of course I said nothing is needed and she says I got something for ya. She got in her car not thinking anything about it as I finished. She gets back out with a joint that had a paper/cardboard filter. I was happy and smoked it like a champ. Never seen anything like it before or since...

im not the only one more than a lil curfuddled.i think some people call roaches a filter,not a cigarette type filter.although i have met one person who used ciggy filters in joints,thought it a waste but each to their own.
raw filters are reusable ? 2nd smoke not taste funny ? the lil glass filters are just a tip.

Wife uses this, sticks the joint in. Less weed in mouth, and just cools it out a bit. She has multiple and soaks them in pipe cleaner to clean. She likes the Roor ones best.

I use these myself:

This way you can smoke right to the end, without massive lip burn. Doesn't effect flavor, or buzz.

I miss roaches, I used to keep them like a champ. No more last toke stache.

Sample dube: I use a roller machine. Because I am terrible at rolling in general.

Thank you for the thread. My girl might like that too. I've rolled with the machine before and liked it but always ended up doing it by hand sooner or later.

It pays to be a gentleman. Good man.
