You know they just smoked it themselves.
And his one problem is he didn’t go to Russia that night because he had extracurricular activities, and they froze to death.

Re: The 420 Thread
I have no idea how many years its been. Never a conscious effort to quit, just never did it again at some point. Weird. I'm sure I must have at some point after I started dating my wife, so maybe 8 years ago? Maybe? Crazy...

I'm at about two decades or so. I didn't stop smoking weed for any anti-weed reasons. Just wasn't into it any more.

Remember that story I posted a couple of years ago (maybe longer) about the bag of BC Hydroponic I found. Like two ounces or so? Only in British Columbia do you find a gigantic zip-lock bag of top notch. Damn, it was gorgeous, too, crystals on it like frost.

I still smoke on rare occasions - usually when I visit an old friend, but I cut back to this level when my daughter was born. Gave away all my paraphernalia when she was just a few days old.

I don't know, judging by that post, maybe I'd be better off if I was back on the pipe. Not that I have really had much opportunity, but I haven't had any desire at all. Now opiates...

Re: The 420 Thread
That's the really significant difference between alcohol and weed. Alcohol makes you forget about all of the terrible things you may or may not have done. Weed reminds you of, oh damn, I did all of those terrible things.

One way to smoke hash. Always thought it was a pain in the ass. I found using a soldering gun, while slower, was a LOT easier with far less waste.Scottie wrote:If anybody knows what hot-knives are, I'll be really really impressed.

You found a soldering gun was easier than blades on a stove-top. Or a blow torch?
And a question. Ever cut a 2-litre pop bottle in half, fill it with ice, reverse it, tape it back together and use it as a filter?

Re: The 420 Thread
Although there are good times. Completely out the door times.
The last three incidents of marajahoohoo smoking in which I indulged, and I'm blatantly particular about the quality, I'll only go for it if it is something special, like this is spectacular, goes as follows.
A Pat Metheny concert in Montreal on Thai weed. That was pretty much a religious experience.
Climbing a volcano on the big island in Hawaii on unknown possibly PCP-laced cone where people yelled at me "Dude! You've gotta come down". That's irony. that.
Weirdest thing. Doing hot knives; way fucked. A RCMP car pulls up in front of my door. Cop knocks on the front door. Haitian hash, bladed, completely fucked. Oh, hey, the cops showed up. Open kitchen window, throw everything in to the back yard. Wired. (They were at the wrong address, terrible timing, that simple, but fucking hell, eh?)
"Are you Sean McDonovan?"
"Me? No. I'm someone else."
"So who are you? Are you sure you're not Sean McDonovan?"
"Yeah, I'm pretty sure I am who I am."

Re: The 420 Thread
Smoked a bit of the hash in Morocco recently. It was ok – didn't do terribly much for me. Kind of a mild high, the way they roll it in with tobacco. Probably for the best since they smoke it pretty much all the time. I haven't been smoking much here, but after damaging a few discs in my neck in a soccer incident on said trip, I made a healthy, informed, democratic decision to get back on the green as quickly as possible.

Well, yeah. I was never a big weed/hash guy. But this method is used for opium. Which I was big on. Yeah, I'm a real piece of work. Long ago, and far away, thank goodness.Scottie wrote:If anybody knows what hot-knives are, I'll be really really impressed.

Re: The 420 Thread
The last week I smoked was the Saturday night before classes started in the fall of my freshman year of college. I don't really know why, but I decided to quit after that. Beer was easy to get in college, but my reasoning was that it still took more effort to get drunk than get high. You can get high in minutes, which just seemed too easy to me. I didn't trust myself.
I'd be happy to smoke again now, but I haven't had the opportunity in probably 20 years. My friends suck.

Re: The 420 Thread
I still have a burn mark on my wrist from trying to stop a hot knife from hitting the ground. Doing knife hits was usually a 2 man job, one to burn it and the other to inhale it. Paper towel tubes were usually most efficient for not losing any smoke.

Re: The 420 Thread
Dave touched on one of my reasons for losing some interest in it. In retrospect, it wasn't just about the high. Back in the olden days, there was a whole social ritual involved, (and, yes, I am quite old), which I miss. First, you put the pot on a flat surface (often, the inside of a two-disc album cover), and cleaned the seeds and stems out. Then you got out your zig zag paper, and carefully rolled your jay. Then, you fired up and passed it around with your friends, while you chatted. Of course it's all strong buds now and I don't know about you guys, but the stuff is so powerful nowadays that it immediately knocks me on my ass after one puff of a one-hitter or bong. Some much for social rituals.

Re: The 420 Thread
Don't really miss weed, though I don't have very many opportunities to partake, but what I really miss is LSD. Not as a regular thing, but as a two or maybe three times a year type thing.

Re: The 420 Thread
Wicked deja vu here. I probably spoke to this before, but I dropped 4 times between '86 and '89, including once while camping and twice at Pink Floyd concerts. It was the greatest thing in the history of ever, but I could never go back. Too much of a good thing, and all that.

Same here. I've done acid twice and then never did again because I just liked it way too damn much.

Re: The 420 Thread
As much as I'd like to say that I'd be all over doing weed if I weren't in the military, I'm fairly certain I'd curl up in the fetal position from the coughing fits I'd likely get as a result of smoking. Hell, I can't even smoke hookah most of the time because I can't stop coughing.

Re: The 420 Thread
I dropped acid A LOT back in the day. A lot of times at Dead shows. Never had a bad trip, but I'd never try it again. I always liked shrooms better. I could do fun stuff on shrooms. Went to the movies, ball games, swimming and stuff like that. Although swimming at 3 am on acid was fucking amazing.

Re: The 420 Thread
I was one and done with acid. I don't have a good trip to compare, but that one suuucked.
Re: The 420 Thread
I have/had a love/hate relationship with acid, as well as mescaline, mushrooms, or any of the "psychedelics"
What I like about them is the way they make me experience things. Every sense is magnified, enhanced, etc... Colors are more vivid, angles sharper, everything just more there.
What I hate about them is they make me extremely introverted. I would only feel comfortable being with, and talking to, the other people I tripped with. Outsiders were just too far outside my realm of experience to relate. Even then, within the group I was tripping with, I would often find myself following thoughts in my head that just went deeper and deeper and deeper to where I would lose track of what was going on around me. They just made it too easy to lose myself within myself.
The other bad side was they made me chain smoke both cigarettes and pot. The next day my chest would often hurt from all the smoking.
