Sometimes I can't roll a fucking joint!

Every once in a while I try to roll a joint and I just can't fucking do it! The paper won't stick no matter what, then I over salivate it and it tears, I can't get it rolled up around itself nicely, the weed starts falling out of both ends, the frustration ignites, and everything falls apart..including myself. My joint skills are quite refined, and on countless occasions my friends have been astonished by the amount of weed I can fit into a tiny paper in no time.........but sometimes I just fail miserably.
I was using Raw and Element papers to roll and they wouldn't come together. I had a 2 week streak of trying to roll tons of joints to no avail, and ended up smoking my bong all disgruntled like. After a while I looked in my stoner drawer for some relief, I found a pack of Clubs, and with the rolling paper with no glue mind you, in less than 30 seconds I had rolled up a beautiful spliff and already had it lit. What gives? Was it the fucking hippy papers? Has anybody else had this happen to them?
Happy smokin

Perfect explanation on the steps of failing at rolling a joint lol. The same thing happens to me sometimes too, I think it's just the papers.

My bud is dry but pretty sticky, especially the varieties I was rolling with. I'm still blaming it on the papers and myself

When I can't roll a joint properly I usually wrap that in another paper. It's a bit more harsh but to be honest I can of like the burning lungs feeling. I don't feel like I've had a good rip if it doesn't scrape a few aioli from my lungs!

I use my pinkys to kinda push the ends in a little bit as I roll. Nothing falls out and I don't have to twist the ends to keep 'em intact . . .

raw papers are actually pretty hard to roll in my experience.
they actually got me into the habit of using a pencil mold, and i still use them for most of my hand rolls.

Raw is a brand of papers. They are really thin and additive free.
Elements are also really thin rice papers, which is probably the result of my struggles. I can roll Zig Zags & Jokers and any other thick paper with tons of adhesive just fine anytime.....I think.

I haven't tried that brand, but I don't really like the cellulose papers I've tried. They bow really bad if they get too much moisture on them and they don't stay lit. I get frustrated just thinking about them.
