I was 16- A friend brought over a joint on thanksgiving and we smoked it in my closet before dinner. I remember justifying the smoking of it in my room because my mother has no sense of smell and "what the hell, my parents are reformed hippies"  I didn't think about my Dad though....and luckily in later years came to discover that he occasionally imbibes at Jimmy Buffet concerts; as I found him high and lost in the parking lot one year. He also smoked right next to me at A Rolling Stones concert when I was 13....but I was dumb and just wondered what was so stinky. Many years later, my brother told me.

Did anyone ever cut the bottom off of a gallon jug of milk or a 2 liter soda bottle, fill the bathtub and use it as a giant gravity bong?

I love the show,I have only been listening for a short time. The first time I tried getting high was when I was 14. I was visiting my cousin in Nashua New Hampshire.
A friend of my cousins kept asking me if I wanted to try some pot.It was 1973 ,of course I wanted to try some pot.Anyways every time we would get away from my couin,his friend would take out his bag of weed and put some in a bowl,but every time we tried to smoke,my cousin would find us and threaten to tell  his mother.He was 15 but hadn`t tried weed yet and had this idea that when you smoked pot you would freak out and start puking all over the place.
  I was in Nashua for the whole summer and never got to smoke any weed,but when I came back to NY a friend of mine got me high.I don`t live anywhere near NYC I lived in a really small town in central NY I still live in the same general area,NY state sucks ass.Iam going to get out of NY one day I hope.

No, but we DID make a giant hookah out of a He Man Castle Greyskull, a Pepsi can, silicone sealant and some aquarium tubing.

My first time smoking, I was 13, and it was mid school year, and my Dad decided I should know what it was (which I already did, but had never tried), and that I should do it at home where I'm unlikely to get arrested. Me, my Step-Mom, my Uncle, my Step-Sister, and a good family friend all took turns passing around an awesome bong. We pulled rips for about an hour, and I was so stoned that I just went into my room and passed out. Over all I had a pretty good time, other than my dad being an obnoxious dick. Now, (since I'm only 16) I smoke semi-regularly, which is whenever I can afford to get something other than schwag.

I've never smoked pot and probably never will. I grew up in an extremely religious home and went in toe Marine Corps at 17. No way I was ever going to touch it in either of those two environments. Now that I'm over 21 I'm bored with the entire party scene. And I probably won't ever smoke it just so I can say that I never have. Just like I've never eaten a corn dog.

Instead I started with LSD back in my youthfull rave days and progressed from there to anything that would be out of my system in a short period of time or untestable by a UA.

So much for the "gate-way drug" argument.

I have tried pot, didn't work for me. I am scared of LSD and such.

I was 14.  I don't ever remember discussions about drugs with my parents, but both of my parents are alcoholics and my mother had gone through a bout of cocaine addiction several years earlier.  Everyone assumed I had already done it.  I had, after all, stood in front of my 7th grade Language Arts class and read a paper that I had written on why it should be legalized, so no one believed me when I told them I had never even tried it.

A friend of my mom's was staying with us at the time.  (RIP, Tommy.)  He had a bunch of joints rolled and stored in a glass next to the pull out bed he slept in.  Just off hand one day he let me know I was welcome to it at any time.  I believe it was the next day, or the next weekend, that a friend and I tried it for the first time.  Don't remember much about it other than that.

As for LSD, I remember when I was 17 years old I nannied a little girl.  She had gotten very sick and was spending a few days with her grandmother, so a friend (the same as before) and I decided to try it.  Imagine - a little girl's bedroom with a light blue carpet and stuffed animals hanging from the ceiling.  A small toddler-sized bed, a little play kitchen.  I swear I could see purple fibers in the carpet.    I was quite out of it.

We walk out of the room into the dining room - white walls, brown carpet, wooden table and chairs.  Just the change of scenery immediately made us feel sober.  Walk back into the little gir's room and we'd be out of it again.  It was like entering/exiting Wonderland.

I was 21 the first time i smoked, i had been around it a bit before that but not much. When i wasin HS i was completely tricked by DARE. 

 I was out at work with a friend in the middle of nowhere, sterilizing the ground on oil and gas well sites.  He had some green and we went about finding a way of smoking it.   we came across a metal pen and smoked up.    I dont remember ever feeling anything.   a week or two later i was working with a guy who has smoked all day everyday since the seventies.   smoking with him was the first time i ever got high.  i had no wayto judge time and felt a little out of it, but it felt so good.
