Boofing became a better known term when Brett Kavanaugh was being interviewed for the US Supreme Court. It's basically using alcohol as an enema, where it'll be absorbed into the bloodstream much faster (potentially lethally if using something like everclear).

It refers to taking drugs rectally. Not every drug can be absorbed by the rectum of course, but stimulants are commonly taken this way.

There's also a famous scene in the movie Trainspotting where Rentboy boofs opium suppositories

Not that I have any experience, but I can't think of any. Other than prodrugs that require first pass metabolism to create actives, but I don't think that counts.

My first guess was that boofing is something about weed, but then I googled it, and uh, I'll just let this knowledge die with me

Back in my high school days we used to create what we called “spoofs” in my neck of the woods. Was just an empty paper towel roll stuffed with dryer sheets. The idea was to exhale into the spoof when smoking pot to cover up the scent. Shockingly, that didn’t work very well, but still, maybe that’s why boof sounds familiar to you?

Boofing - is in the context I know smoking e-cigarettes. Emphazis on the smoke produced and stuff

Huh, well TIL! That context probably makes sense unless there’s a different contextual meaning available
