I Vapes Hard
So I used to name all my pieces in my early stoner days, my first bong was a green acrylic, named "Tyson" cause it "would knock your ass out". Then we had a corn cob pipe we named "mark Furman" lol who knows why. Then I hadn't named any of my pieces for a while. All of my glass hand pipes for combustion went unnamed their whole life, and are now condemned to the junk drawer.

So lately, with the purchase of my new vapes and glass pieces, I was thinking about naming them.Maybe cause they are so close to me, and I've made a different connection with them than I did the combustion pipes. Does anyone do this? Let's hear some of your pieces names!

My pipe is named Euler (the best mathematician who ever lived) and my vape is named Rainbow.

The pipe got it's name because I almost exclusively smoked it when I was working on my thesis paper (I'm a mathematics major), and the vape got it's name after my fiance hit it for the first time and said "It's like smoking a rainbow!"

Only my old combustion non branded glass have names.

The 12 inch glass steam roller is called "my Johnson"
I had a giant 3 foot green water pipe with a blue spiral around it we called it the "brain laser"
Small "mini Z" water pipe that has a zig zag in the tube

I don't think I can name them anymore.:cry: Unless.... what about ... my volcano named ... Mt St Vapor

I used to name all my home made combustion bongs.
Here are some highlights:
Mount Cola
Foam Dome (& Foam Dome 2)
Face Shot
Big Sippa
Poison Ivy
Pine O Cleen
Golden Boy
Pumper

Then there was the names of the cheap grommetted bongs:
Mac Mini
Big Mac
Angry Angus
Slimline
Frosty
The Wizard
Atlantis
Top-Hat
Fist-Bump
Aqualung (this one had a little pump in it that pulled for you - think EQ forced air hit:lol:)

I don't really name my new shiny high end pieces, but thats because they actually have names, so I just call them what they are.
The Matrix,
The EFS,
The Pug,
The Fritter
Etc.

I no longer name my pieces. I found that the pieces I named all broke. The ones I never named are still around for the most part. I think for me naming was a bad luck thing to do. Also once you name it you start to get a little more emotionally attached, so that once it breaks the loss affects you more. So I quit naming my pieces.

the first hand blown glass pipe i ever purchased back in high school, i named her old betsy. i had that pipe for like 4 years and took her everywhere, then i lost her on an acid adventure. i was sad and none of the pipes i owned after that felt the same.

What was the question, again?
I've never really named them. I did notice once, however, that a bong of mine had the glass blowers name painted in to the design (could have been a coincidence since I don't know the blowers name). So that bong became known as Joe. Until my roommates fiance knocked it off the counter and shattered Joe in to a thousand pieces. R.I.P. Joe...

Yup, we had a tiny green acrylic bong named string bean.
Then this beautiful heavy thick hand blown glass jobbie we called blaze because she was swirled with orange, white , red, yellow and clear glass in a spiral pattern. I cried when I broke her giving her a bath one day. That was my valentines gift from my current husband in 1996. She was a good bong.
We also have a four armed glass hookah named Jerry. yes, I know it's tasteless, but it's Jerry because everyone who hit it becomes a Jerry's kid. Of which there are a hundred or so since he's been around since 95. he lives in our closet and only comes out every few years because he's pretty wasteful. he is fun to run the zephyr thru tho. Kinda neat to see the vapor shooting out all four tubes. And people getting positively BLASTED... Definitely only for parties...

I used to name everything, now it seems like a pain. I did get drunk one night and name my bongs.
My 50cm Molino tube is named Cleveland, and my 15inch HVY inline is namedx Maverick. I need to name my SSV, one day.

My mini bubbler is named Chernobyl. She's been a faithful one for the last three years I combusted.

The bong has no name, and doesn't need one.
