To each his own,thats my personal opinion, no slamming,,,except of the punani and the shot glasses. Thin wick... well to tell you the truth I dont know if I only used the thick wick or not, it really is just a hassle though in my eyes. My boy getonthepartybus swears by hemp wick so every once in a while i use it but most of the time i dont, I will say it is pleasant when he just lights it for me because then I get to enjoy my hit and he puts out the hempwick... Ill see if he has any thin wick next time we smoke. He works at a head shop so he has multiple kinds lolz.. Good tip on the thin wick Kenula420
