Is It Just Crunchy Granola Seattle-But Why Is 'Everyone' On An App 420 Friendly?

[+ Gar1eth]

During my two times to try it, it didn't do anything. And I hate the smell!!

 

I'd rather they dipped-assuming we aren't kissing. At least I don't have to smell it.

None for me, thank you. I find it gross myself. There's still a substantial segment of the gay hookup world that doesn't inhale. It's too bad you can't easily weed out those who do :-)

I was going to post a well reasoned and immaculately articulate response, but, I got the munchies when I read about the crunchy granola so I'm off in search of some. My avatar should make my stance pretty clear.

You aint the only one. It is vile.

[tanman4u]

It doesn't have to be smoked (he says sitting here munching his brownie).

Now that's funny. I never realized what that image was. So yeah, the whole munchie/brownie thing makes sense now.

One word Edibles. I also find the smell undesirable. The edible revolution is changing the 420 scene here.

 

Just for clarification even though I advocate for legalization for medical and recreational use, and I firmly believe in taxing the purchase of pot.

I don't use it myself and haven't in 22 years. When I retire that will be another story but retirement is still 9 years and 6 months away. Not that it is anybody's business just letting you know I'm not high while making these statement.

Ha, I haven't indulged in over 35 years, but as of my last whiff at a concert back in the 90s, it sure beat tobacco smoke. So put me down for "not vile." Hiwever, I would agree that it's not the most attractive smell in the world, either. My thought upon smelling it for the first time was "burnt steak on a grill."

 

I've been told today's stuff is much stronger, but if it were legal here, I would try it for relaxation/recreational purposes.

Well unfortunately, not enough potheads have caught onto fashionable edibles. The smoke is a gross intrusion into my air space.

I think the edibles are more expensive. I agree the smoke is gross and annoying.

[+ quoththeraven]

My ex has only ever had edibles, and only once. I've only ever smoked it (probably a bad choice because it almost always made me cough) - once from a bong, otherwise from a cigarette, and only three or four times.

[+ glennnn]

To each his own! I indulge occasionally, because it helps with my Generalized Anxiety Disorder, but never around others. I'm grateful that California is on track to legalize weed, but I will still smoke it in private only. Thanks for the heads up as to how much it bothers you all. I really hadn't realized. I will be doubly careful about the smell.

[Rudynate]

It makes for great sex.

[+ nycman]

I think it's a cheap gross drug.

 

One Manhattan and I'm all set.

 

Same effect...less stink, less glassy eyes, less munchies, less "duh" behaviour.

[+ azdr0710]

I know I'm wrong, but if I ever smell it somewhere, it just makes me think of lazy-ass do-nothing bums....I tried it about three or four times back in college and I just don't like the hazy, dopey high....gimme a Coors Light instead....

 

the edibles thing is a good alternative, I now realize.....and I definitely respect those who use it for valid medicinal purposes, as glennnn says above.....sounds very trite I know, but I hope people use this for good reasons and not just to look badass

[bigvalboy]

 

And no...never cared for the stuff myself, but no denying it has medicinal purposes.

[+ Keith30309]

It'd be my expectation that a companion isn't taking anything, but, given a choice, I'll take someone who has been smoking over a drinker any day.

I've never met an angry, aggressive weed smoker - worst case is they are an intellectual puddle and unable to function.

On the other hand, I have been kneed in the balls 'accidentally' by a companion who was a Jack Daniels aficionado.

 

My experience is that drinkers become a problem much more quickly and easily than smokers.

 

All things in moderation.

You and I must be kin. We think so much alike. Are you my long lost brother?

The potency of marijuana today is far stronger than in the past. One can take two to three hits and be up; although I was with an escort a few months back

and took one hit which did it for me. My altered state of euphoria lasted for almost four hours. Don't know the brand or if something else had been added,

but it was some "hot shit." Both of us played safely and had a wonderful, sensual time.

I'm with you, @tanman4u . HATERS!!!!

DC is starting to go through the revolution right now. My favorite neighbor in my condo building (she was already my fav before) is starting a business baking edibles. They are delicious!

You don't meet angry aggressive weed smokers because THC is a medically documented testosterone blocker. If one is over 35 & smoking it for reasons that are NOT Cancer or HIV related, I roll my eyes. Male testosterone production starts to plateau around age 35, and begins to decline in the 40s. For me, I do not see the logic of ingesting a substance that encourages effects of male menopause. The reason I am fine with Cancer patients & HIV positive persons ingesting it is because consumption of THC stimulates appeptite--to be specific, consumption of sugar--and if one has either of those ailments, then they need all the calories they can keep down.

 

On a side note, once you hit 35, a man should be ingesting a daily fenugreek supplement along with selenium & zince supplements. Also, if you are in a position to suntan naked, do so--a British medical study indicated exposing the male scrotum to direct sunlight encourages testosterone production.

My testosterone overfloweth... Thank you very much. My bitch of a doctor (he's a man so don't start on me about lady bashing) will not even give me supplements. I wanted some to help with my workouts.

 

And I'm in an obvious minority here, but I LOVE the smell of pot. Especially today's super strong, super stinky weed. I don't partake anymore because I simply don't enjoy the high, but I'd rather have a pot smoker in my life than a heavy drinker any day.

I switched doctors recently, so am still hesitant about revealing things he doesn't need to know yet. On a recent visit, I asked him about medical 420 for one of my conditions, just to gage his opinion. Surprisingly, he was positive. He said he would rather see 420 as a treatment plan than the many Rx's I take, given many of the Rx's cause other problems/side effects that need to be addressed with more Rx's. My problem, is I don't want to smoke anything, anymore, at any time. ever. It took me years to give up a 30 year cigarette habit (8+ years and counting), and don't ever want to risk going back. And, while I always enjoyed the effects of 420 in my younger days, as others said, I never liked the smell, and today I live in a condo in a 4 season climate, so don't want to subject my neighbors to the smell, nor do I want be standing outside in freezing weather just to partake. Edibles, or tea (as I have heard is available in California) would be a good alternative.
