Yeah in the UK we call the little piece of rolled up card in the end of the joint 'a roach'

I have to say, in Amsterdam you quickly become remiss about how much weed you let go to waste..... at home I dab every crumb of green and get it into the joint, I also don't pack it all the way to the roach..... In Amsterdam however so much get left or scraped into the Ashtray it's ridiculous.
When the going gets weird, the weird get going!

In Massachusetts, my hipster friends were rolling with tips 15+ years ago, and they called them badogies. (Bah - doe - ghi) I dunno why. Thought it was a cool idea for parties since it eliminated trying to smoke the ends.

Personally, I always preferred a pipe, and could make one out of damn near anything in a pinch. One of the survival skills I learned in the Army.
