Another dope one..
I roll my joints at my computer desk, and I have to admit that on a particularly stressful night at the end of a particularly stressful week, not having had any gear for about a fortnight IIRC and having no alcohol in the house... I took every single key out of my keyboard to get at the year's worth of blims that had fallen between the keys while rolling, seperating it from the random fluff, biscuit crumbs and fuck-knows-what-else with a small screwdriver I use when rolling.

It took a good hour, it only made one very, very small joint (single small rizla FFS!) and it tasted like a bonfire made of carpets, but it was simultaneously the best and worst joint I've ever smoked.

I hear you
I have gone through the hoover bag with similar results.... I have never admitted that to anybody else...

Get organised, people!
I have a large tin. In particular, mine's a rather stylish Guiness gift type thing salvaged from one christmas, it's a bit excessive but useful to keep pipes, spare lighters, rolling mat, menthols, roaches etc. in.

Since it has a hinged lid, I roll on it too and all the mess goes in when I'm done. Whenever I've run out of smoke, and I'm partcularly stressed/desparate I resort to tidying all the filters, paper and crap from the bottom of the tin and smoke the remaining tobacco scraps to get the last vestiges of any gear spilled. The wife usually takes this as a distress signal and ushers me off to get a half ounce. It's not dignified, but fuck-me, going through the hoover bag is PROPER desperate.

I've been there
I call it the desperation doobie. Comes about three days after running out, and consists of the little bits at the bottom of my bag. I am quite an expert at picking out the small flecks of brown or green that are exactly the right consistency - although I think I've smoked a fair bit of broccoli at one stage.

I've also skinned up with a sheet of A4 rice paper held together with small bits of sellotape at intervals (removed manually one after another just before they started to burn)

Tip: sock over the hoover pipe prevents blims n bits from reaching the bag.

Tip: a bit of greenie hawked back sticks rice paper in a less toxic way
