Why does all most every glass pipe have these litle balls on the side?

Why does all most every glass pipe have these litle balls on the side?
They make'em look uglee as all hell
Also general stoner thread

>grip

now please don't ask why the hole is for...

why is the whole there??? also general stoner thread

If you actually need something for a grip on a pipe you're retarded. They must have some other purpose since I refuce to accept that someone would be so retardet

...

It literally serves no purpose other than to make the surface uneven and easier to grip instead of a smooth, curved glass surface. Calm down bud, your aspbergers is showing.

it's a grip for when the pipe gets too hot, recheck your autism please.

grip

It's so the bowl doesn't roll over and dump the goods out.

guys your all wrong. It's supposed to keep the bowl from falling over when you place it on a counter.

I like to visit Sup Forums to remind myself that people like you are artistic works of fiction and falsehood.

>being this stupid
How does it feel to be a 90s stereotype of a dumb ass stoner, op?

the marble will never get hot, helps absorb the heat of the bowl. again, recheck your autism.

This.
It makes it easier to hold and keeps your fingers safe if the bowl gets too hot

That's fucking horse shit, I've seen those things bigger than the fucking pipe. No one would be stupid enough to grip it.

genital warts

The hole is for adding water to cool your bowl down, wouldn't want it to overheat would we?

i quit

You're all wrong. Those bumps are there so you can bang out your ashes/unsmoked content without breaking your bowl. Remember that bowls are "intended for Tabacco"

I like my pipes like my woman, smooth and balless

if you would like your pipe like your woman you would know it has a marble on the inside and not on the outside, faggot.

Grip for thumb. Absorbs heat from the bowl. Won't roll off the table when you set it down. Theres so many perks why not put it on.

what are you saying?

clearly you can see it for example

The rolling is what I figured it's for. Besides the grip.

What the fuck does it matter for? Are you also going to ask why they put colors into it? It's for fucking stoners, they look at it while high and come up with stupid questions they think are deep. Like you just did.

I don't think he know's what he's saying??

So they don't roll off the table.

How old are you, exactly?

This

"know's"? wtf is this, i don't even...

Honestly what happened here is some popular glassblower put it on one day, and the trend stuck.

I half expected him to ask what the hole on the side was for.

just go fucking smoke 2 bowls and see if it heats up or not, faggot.

You're supposed to cup them when you put it in your mouth.

-crumbled

But I only smoke two bowls in the morning

Well, I guess I also smoke two bowls at night.

Tip-assist

the nubs are a marital aid

This dude did his homework.

To stop it from rolling over and spilling your bowl maaaaaaaaaan

I though that was a glass dildo

This is a stoner thread not a faggot thread.

the balls feel cool to touch when you are high, that's why they are there

and in the afternoon?

Yeah, I'd say that makes me feel alright

Glass artist here, that bump is an example of a lense. They are placed for extra grip like another user said, but the main function is to magnify the Glass underneath.

Its so that you can hold the bowl without burning your fingers God damit

Checked and idk balls only feel good rolling your face off

and dirty as fuck.

clean that shit nigger.

to stop it from rolling off the table and shattering, bruh

this
stay woke

You buying cheap glass or something? Ive never had a bowl break from being dropped. Bongs for sure but never a bowl

Braille for blind crackheads

anyone who says otherwise has never used a fucking pipe

i hate smoking pipes

mouth full of ash and way too small bowls

I've known too many stoners who have told me the story of "got stoned, dropped bowl." Never done it, myself, but I also don't take my glass outside with the neighbors where they COULD drop and break it. I value my pieces too much.

Get a screen to prevent ash hits. There are lots of large capacity bowls out there; just shop around.

only correct answer

So Sublime

nyeeeeh

How about you just fuck off nigger

How about you fuck off faggot?

You should just kiss at this point

fuck you cunt, why don't you git fucking good and learn to smoke out of a pipe like a real man.
Also bitch nigger check these dubs

smoking pipe < any other smoking method

>check these dubs
Bruh

I think you've got that backwards, son.

>making a delineation

all Sup Forums threads are faggot threads

so you don't burn your finger

I make pipes. We put them there because we put them there. Now fuck off and blow your own.

...

I don't like the knobs either, none of my pipes have them. Here's a nice one of mine

Some peoples like nice pipes.
Nice pipes cost money depending on the material used (colored glass or gold/silver fuming).
Not to mention the amount of time the glassblower puts in.
But yeah no difference in taste/use in a simple spoon pipe or beaker bong.

My hands get sweaty in the car or outside in the heat. So I like the marbles.

You all are retarded just ask your local glass blower why he puts them there

Its good for handling, helps me when im handing it to someone or loading it

"glass artist" you been making glass pipes for what 6 months? pffft another band wagon kid claiming to be a "glass artist". Go back to your shitty national torch.

Salty vag

nah. Just so many of you faggots claiming to be "glass artist".

Let's see your glass then

Let's see your glass then

Not a glass artist --- i roll my gear, but yeah, you're pretty salty for nothing

Psa: anyone who calls themselves an artist is blowing smoke

underrated post

Anyone else not like glass pipes? I love metal pipes, they're fucking unbreakable, most have covers so your bowl doesn't fall out, and they're pretty stealth.

>pic related dont have mine with me atm but this is my favorite pipe

...

I feel like id be sucking a robot dick with that.

No. It can still roll to the other side. Jesus read a book.

Hey thanks i was wondering too

Not everything in life needs to revolve around dick sucking user.

Its for grip and so it doesn't roll easily also for decoration some have kool siprals or mushrooms

Pipes are shit, why would you smoke from one?

>aspbergers
>bergers
aspergers, you fucking idiot

Vaporizer are best.
Been thinking about buying a incredibowl for my truck.

I don't think I believe you

yeah you would know wouldn't you?

Hi user
I'm with you.
First pipe was a lil metal sleeve pipe like what you find in the parking lot of a deadheads concert. It sucked.

Moved to glass for smoking bud. Loved them as they served as pieces of art as well.

Then I got a real job and couldn't smoke real bud. Enter synthetic cannabinoids.

That shit is always like shake. I'm not really into the glass screens. I mean you blow through the pipe to clear out any excess ash and lose your screen instantly.

So I started buying metal pipes again.
I like em, they are like legos. Make some interesting implements from parts.

But.. what your pic is of is called a protopipe. Fucking awesome. I have a brass one and chrome one. Best metal pipe you can get.

Only sensible human amongst these miserable junkies.

joints. and edibles. everything else gets funky with resin

I would know that you're a massive faggot.

Lil bit of rubbing alcohol and a swab and funk is gone. Run your flame over anything that you cleaned and excess is burned away so no poor taste.

yeah say that to my face bitch, I'll suck ya dick through yo asshole
