jordanneff Posted April 11, 2008 Share Posted April 11, 2008 I couldn't say for sure but I think it's silver because it's easier to tell when the coating burns off rather than black on black and waiting for it to ash over Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scoop Posted April 11, 2008 Share Posted April 11, 2008 colden canary are some of the best coals, they dont last as long as others but have what seems like the least bad chemikills and dont flavor the mix at all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RayVer Posted April 12, 2008 Share Posted April 12, 2008 I call japanese coals 'jap coals' all the time simply because it's quicker to say... same thing applies for 'silver coals' with other people. I guess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whats the difference, if there is one, between silver coals and natural ones? Also, are Canary Goldens really good?If you're referring to the "Japanese" part, that's just the style of coal. It isn't any more racist than describing a hookah as Egyptian, or Syrian. They're "Japanese" or "Jap" because that type of coal originated in Japan.

Ceraziefish Posted April 12, 2008 Share Posted April 12, 2008 Yeah, I don't really think anyone cares, but I still call them Japanese coals... Just the way I was raised, I guess. Even historical slurs are too much for me D: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jap coals. Who gives a fuck, seriously? Can't people distinguish between "racism" and "brevity" anymore? Will we now have to write "I would like to purchase Jap. coals"? Is that single little period all that seperates normal everyday joes from wearing KKK hoods and ranting on about why Hitler was right? Sweet Christ... lighten up folks.

NUBBS Posted April 13, 2008 Author Share Posted April 13, 2008 Holy crap!! I posted this topic right before getting off the computer this morning, and just got back and chacked. I just put the racist thing as a joke. You know just something to put in the subtitle. But you guys went to town on it huh? hahaah! I was just wondering why the coals are silver. Is is metal coating? Just fresh out of the polisher? What? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
