KayJay1971 238 Posted February 17, 2020 Do you live in a state where weed is legal? And if you do, do you now smoke it assuming you did not before? Weed has been legal in California for a while but I still have not bought or smoked any. Did it when I was younger a handful of times but it just isn't my go to thing to relax I guess.

fandandy 3,311 Posted February 17, 2020 I think the government should designate drug cartels as terrorist organizations and when somebody buys weed from Reggie in the ghetto they should be charged with funding terrorism. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Frozenbeernuts 1,652 Posted February 17, 2020 IL legalized it. I never had a desire to smoke since the age of 25 and probably never will. Most of my friends are union and get drug tested as it is. If they didn't do it before it was legal they prob don't do it now Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Legal in michigan. I smoked a ton on college but now I'm just not really into it. Wife smokes here and there. My job tests too. But only if there is a safety incident. However 10 put of the last 14 years I worked for companies that randomly tested. So I guess that changed me Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

titans&bucs&bearsohmy! 2,745 Posted February 18, 2020 I really miss weed. It's been over a year since I've smoked. We had a scare with the local cops last year. Really sucks now that we're on lockdown. Would be nice to get blazed. Would keep the whiskey stocks from going down so fast too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Utilit99 4,099 Posted February 18, 2020 I haven't smoked in years. One of two things happened to me when I used to get high. I either wanted to go out and play sports, or I would think about all the things that I needed to do but haven't done yet and either be paranoid about it or go and work on it. Plus, I work for a consulting company and am subject to the drug policies of whatever client I get assigned to. I don't want to lose my job that way, so, no smokey for me even if I wanted to.

Those of us middle aged, middle class, that never stopped smoking after teenage years were a secret underground. We all knew each other. Now with legalization people are way more open about it. I don't see much difference in the people that are doing it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

vuduchile 1,941 Posted February 18, 2020 Pot always made me paranoid so I’m not a fan. I did smoke hash once and it was much different. No paranoia at all. Pot is legal in MI now. Does that also mean hash is legal too? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Patriotsfatboy1 1,432 Posted February 18, 2020 It is legal here in MA. They are putting in a couple of dispensaries in my town. Haven’t had a desire strong enough to go buy something yet, but I guess at some point I will. I smoked some when I was younger, but never had it in my regular routine. Maybe edibles will be good.

Cruzer 1,992 Posted February 18, 2020 Not legal here....... in fact, Texas will prolly be the last damn state to legalize it. I had fun with it 30 years ago, but not for me anymore - don't miss it a bit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MDC 5,892 Posted February 18, 2020 I was a near daily pot smoker throughout my 20s. Last time I got high was maybe 7-8 years ago. When it becomes legal in PA I will probably try it again. I don’t see it becoming part of my usual routine though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So I am assuming you are saying you have not tried it before? Just curious, if my previous thought is true, why would you want to try it after all these years? My wife has never tried it. Ever. She went to school at UC Berkeley and it was literally in her dorm (roommates smoked out all the time) room all the time. She said she was worried she would become addicted. She has stated that she made it this far without trying it so why should she start now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've done edibles maybe a half dozen times, either a half or a whole gummy. One whole one puts me on the verge of paranoia, so that's enough for me. I do notice the edibles make me dizzy, though. The wife says the same thing. My 22 year old daughter lives in Marlboro right down the street from a dispensary. It's funny..8 - 10 years ago, we would've grounded her for a month if we caught her with weed. Now my wife is going with her buying edibles. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Intense Observer 344 Posted February 18, 2020 I smoked 2-5 x daily in high school, tapering down to a few times a month socially after college. Then a few times a year socially for a decade. I went to a dispensary and spent a few hundred dollars on carts, edibles, tinctures, etc recently and went hog wild for a month and a half. Using every night and all day on the weekends. It was cool initially but my tolerance built up real quick and by the end the novelty had worn off. I doubt I ever buy any again but will partake occasionally if it is around at a get together. Everyone should at least try it once. Even right wing grannies are getting in on the action these days for recreational or medical reasons. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
