I gotz a few nugz of tweefer:

Bomb Twiggity: An extremely potent strain of tweefer. “douglas fir realz yo, that tweefer from the twitspensary is bomb twiggity”

One Hitter Twitter – a highly potent strain of herb with effects so seismic that you can’t help but tweet about it.

#Hashtag: A fun game to play when you’re hittin’ the hash. It’s like “hide and smoke weed” but with more kickassness.

Fat Twong Rip: when ya stretch them binary airways for a full 140 character tweet toke, invoking the grace of Jah to ease the squeeze of All

“Twoke”: tokin’ while twittin’ – To Twoke: “You can tell Dave was twoking by his use of the perma-grin” =D

Cannablessings,
