or make cookies/brownies
True, but with the vapor you feel the effects immediately, instead of having to sit around waiting, only to end up utterly comatose an hour later like baked goods.
I ate some cookies my friends made me as I was waiting to go through security at the airport once…that was fucking awesome, I have to admit. Airports are normally boring as shit…but airports…ON WEED?
I don’t enjoy eating pot. I get woozy and lightheaded (and not in a good way).
Vaporizers > ***
Drinking and smoking can go either way for me, in FG’s and FPS.
Sometimes they help me relax and focus, other times I’d rather be out somewhere doing dumb shit.
I don’t like it either, only for me it makes me feel really warm and lethargic. I mean, that’s cool and all if you want to pass the fuck out, but in my stoner days, I enjoyed actually being able to do shit while I was high.
I want to get a job soon so I can stop this “straight edge” bullshit and get really, really blazed. :bluu:
right on brother
most notably id would really enjoy smoking a spliff and playing sf4 local with some decent comp, but online will suffice.
To be fair, cannabis is generally smoked with tobacco and so usually has the major drawbacks that tobacco have. Ferreting around on the internet, the science behind the drug itself doesn’t seem that well established, which is odd. It’s proven that it causes temporary mental problems, especially in the stronger forms, but there’s no hard evidence for the link to the long term “mental episode” side of things.
I think this thread has been sort of derailed from alcohol… :xeye:
EDIT: Out of interest, what sort of the stuff is more common in the US? I was reading an article earlier that pointed out that 80% of all UK police seizures are of the far stronger “skunk” cannabis.
In my experience, the type of marijuana you’re going to find in the United States is dependent upon geography. The closer you are to Mexico (especially out here in the Southwest), you’re going to find seedy, stemmy-ass Mexican weed. It’s cheap and it works, but for the stronger strains, you’re going to end up charged out the ass. It’s like a “Premium” thing.
When I was living in the Northwest (near Seattle, WA), the smoking was much, MUCH better. Nearly everything I ever bought was a named strain of some sort (AK-47, Trainwreck and something called “Nappy Thunder” were all common), and although I couldn’t buy as much as a time as I could with the nasty Mexican shit, I wasn’t charged out the ass, either.
I didn’t think the police even gave a shit about cannabis in the UK. At least that’s what I’ve been told by random Brits I’ve smoked with here, anyway.
A FAIR statement would include a reference to some DATA that says that there is a strong statistical correlation between pot smoking and tobacco smoking.
I play bad sober.
Even worse drunk. 
Cigarettes are disgusting. Half of the people i smoke tree with (me included) agree.
Please refrain from talking about what you don’t know about.
That’s funny, I swear it’s mixed with tobacco. Must be a UK thing.
EDIT: Thought so! From Wikipedia:
That’s from the Joint (Cannabis) article. Above it mentions that it is usually not mixed with tobacco in the US.
Sometimes people here roll spliffs, but it’s far from being the most common way to smoke marijuana. I personally hate tobacco in my weed, since I don’t smoke that shit.
Question…have you ever even GOTTEN high? Not trying to be condescending here, but you really don’t seem to have a clue what you’re talking about half the time on this subject.
When did I ever claim to know much about smoking cannabis? You learn by talking, I’m asking around because this is an interesting topic, and every time somebody says “oi, that’s not right” I learn more about it. I’m just trying to learn about this now, because I was so high and mighty earlier in the thread.
EDIT: And I really need to stop editing my posts hundreds of times.
Ah yeah…the “spliff” thing where you mix tobacco in is a Europe thing.
Even in Canada…its pretty rare, at least in the Vancouver scene.
No, you said smoking pot daily was just as bad as drinking daily. Which it’s not, not by a longshot. Of course you’re going to see some amount of negative effects, but drinking daily for an extended amount of time will likely land you a spot in the hospital. By saying it’s “just as stupid/bad” you put the two on the same level. Had to correct you.
That aside, excellent post on Harper’s dumbassery. I’m Canadian (from BC) and I can’t wait for that dipshit to finally step down.
On the topic of 4/20, here’s a great article on the topic from High Times.
On the topic of spliffs, I like them, but I also smoke tobacco. People who don’t smoke tobacco don’t roll or smoke spliffs. It’s really as simple as that.
You insinuate you know a lot on the topic every time you pull some sort of “factoid” straight out of your asshole. If you really want to learn about it, keep asking questions instead of trying to feed us false information.
good post.
anyone who claims weed is even close to as bad for you on a consistent basis as alcohol just doesn’t know wtf they are talking about, hell most prescription drugs are worse for you over the long run than weed is. and this is coming from a guy that smoked all day every day for nearly 4 years straight. my health didn’t suffer other than gaining a bit of weight from the munchies and not having the greatest memory (but hell what else is college for? :smokin:)
on to more important things… you either smoke cali or go home… i love living in cali, fuck that bullshit mexican bammer
I live in BC where, as I understand, a lot of the state’s best weed comes from. Is Mexican weed really that bad? I smoked some green in Philadelphia and that shit was pretty nasty, but I have no idea where it came from, and Philly is pretty far north aswell.
This topic should be renamed “Intoxicated Street Fighter IV.”
normally it’s pretty bad, lacks taste and lacks punch, add to that the fact it’s generally riddled with seeds and stems and sometimes not even green really makes it depressing. in cali we would refuse a sack of it if we were buying anything good.
and most states in the eastern us either get only small amounts or none at all of that cali bud.
don’t get me wrong i know there is probably some decent mexican weed considering they smuggle soooo much into the us, but for the most part it’s total crap.
BC pretty much supplied all of the good weed I smoked in Washington, and I’ve smoked in Humboldt, California. My honest opinion on the whole debate is that BC Bud >>> California Bud, all day every day.
I did get some shit in Humboldt called “Planewreck”, and it really lives up to the name…shit had me torn up like John F. Kennedy Jr.
Yeah, this topic really has drifted away from the topic of “playing Street Fighter while under the influence of _____”.
