I can roll a pretty decent J, it took me forever to get a good technique down just gotta pracitce...
I still can't roll a blunt worth a damn though... I rarely smoke blunts but sometimes get the urge if I'm rollin through the ghetto.

It took me forever to be able to roll a decent joint until I figured out that you have to compress the weed into the cylinder shape by rolling the papers up and down with your fingers before even attempting to glue the paper together. Press slightly to get the weed to clump together, but not too much or you won't be able to get any air flow. Then once its compacted, fold one edge of the paper over the weed, hold it, and start rolling it up.
Also, use some kind of a filter. It makes it easier and it doesn't waste weed and you don't end up burning your fingers at the end. I was surprised how long it took me to be able to roll good joints (although I never had anyone teaching me), but now it's a piece of cake.

fuck a filter just put a tip on it. But Plok's method is the right one. Mold the weed before rolling.
-------------------- Man is timid and apologetic; he is no longer upright; he dares not say "I think," "I am," but quotes some saint or sage. He is ashamed before the blade of grass or the blowing rose.Man postpones or remembers; he does not live in the present, but with reverted eye laments the past, or, heedless of the riches that surround him, stands on tiptoe to foresee the future. He cannot be happy and strong until he too lives with nature in the present, above time TRANSCEND

Like its already been said, all one needs is practice. Throw out/sell all your glass pipes, bongs, vapes, whatever. Than you have to roll when you smoke. Its better anyway than fucking around with some charred up bowl all the time anyway.
and J's/blunts are good for traveling, glass just weighs you down.

i roll great joints. joints are my favorite.
one things that helps me is using a grinder. It "fluffs" up the weed when it grinds it which makes it easier to work with. breaking it up by hand usually results in joints that run.

I rolled my own cigarettes for a while from rolling tobacco, after i got good at rolling those, rolling joints are easy.
